About
Hostel Filip - Gdansk
Hostel Filip sits on Ul. Waly Piastowskie, about a five-minute walk from the 21 x TAK landmark and close to the Spameed area. With just 12 rooms, it keeps a small, manageable scale, and the 24-hour reception means no curfew worries.
The hostel mixes private rooms — from twins to quads — with shared spaces like a kitchen, lounge/TV room, and a garden with furniture. Breakfast can be tailored to vegetarians on request, and the front desk stays open around the clock for late arrivals or early departures.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities are basic — The lowest-rated category (5.5) suggests the physical facilities are simple, with no elevator or air conditioning mentioned.
- Potential noise and maintenance issues — One guest reported construction noise and a moldy smell, while another noted occasional hot water problems and the need to call for check-in.
- Small property, limited capacity — With only 12 rooms, availability can be tight, and the property may feel cramped during peak times.
- Check-in requires advance arrangement — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00, and one reviewer mentioned having to call ahead; late arrivals may need to coordinate.
