The Flying Pig Hostels

Proud winner of the hoscar, voted by you guys... thanks...Welcome to the Flying Pig Amsterdam Hostels!

The Flying Pig youth hostels in Amsterdam are world famous for the relaxed atmosphere in real Amsterdam style. The Pig bars are the best place in town to have a drink or an unforgettable party, meet other guests and staff or have a smoke together chilling on our pillow stage. All essentials are included in the price; breakfast, bed linen, wifi, lockers (bring your own padlock), maps, guides, free city tours and more. Our hostels all have a fully equipped kitchen for you to cook your own meal, share your meal with new friends and keep your trip on a budget.

Our Flying Pig Uptown Hostel can be found right in the middle of Amsterdam - next to the Leidseplein, a square famous for the many clubs and pubs that have everything from Jazz and Hip Hop to House and Rock. Our youth hostel is located in a typical old-Amsterdam mansion, overlooking the Vondelpark. The Flying Pig Uptown Hostel is known for its great mix of a relaxed and funky atmosphere, and the real Amsterdam party vibe!

Cultural Hostel in Amsterdam with wifiIf you’re up for some cultural exploring the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum and the Rembrandt Museum are all just around the corner from the Flying Pig Uptown Hostel. When you’re based at this hostel you can stroll around the many markets (such as the Albert Cuijp in the Pijp area) and have a beer at the Amsterdam Heineken Museum (before you start partying in the hostel bar)! Being so close to the Vondelpark has its perks too! Simply borrow a pair of free skates from the hostel and share a ‘smoke,’ a drink and a blanket with your new backpacker friends on the green grass of the most famous park in Amsterdam! We also highly recommend laughing your head off at one of the comedy clubs on the Leidseplein or a visit to the famous Red Light District, and the Jordaan, which you can easily reach from our Uptown hostel.

Oh, and please note that we have a lovely cat in the hostel.

Our Flying Pig Downtown Youth Hostel is located next to Amsterdam Central Station and the Red Light District. This 18th century building has been transformed into one of the best party spots in all of Amsterdam! Our youth hostel is known for its wild nights and a relaxed atmosphere, mixed in with all the comforts of home!

What to do in and around this Amsterdam youth hostel?

The Downtown hostel near to the Central Station and the Red Light DistrictCultural hot spots such as Dam square, the Royal Palace and the Anne Frank house are just around the corner from the Flying Pig Downtown Youth Hostel. The main shopping street in Amsterdam is just outside the hostel’s front door, but for great bargain shopping go to the outdoor market at Waterlooplein (square).  Or you can stroll around the oldest part of Amsterdam (the Jordaan area) - well known for its tiny houses, canals and many cosy restaurants. The Rembrandtplein (square) is a great spot to spend your time with a pint in hand and after a big day of strolling around, and exploring the city, you’re very welcome at the hostel to have a few drinks, relax and party with your fellow backpackers! Amsterdam hostels might not be the most spacious buildings in the world given that there are so many people living in Amsterdam - in such a small space - BUT the bar at the Flying Pig Downtown Hostel is as spacious as it gets and it sells the cheapest beer!

Oh, and please note that we have a lovely cat in the hostel.

The Flying Pig Noordwijk is an excellent alternative for backpackers who want to see more of the Netherlands than just Amsterdam.

Being centrally located between the major Netherlands cities of Rotterdam, Den Haag (The Hague), Leiden, Haarlem and Amsterdam, makes it an ideal base to explore the Netherlands’ most interesting cities.
These cities are easily reached by reliable Dutch public transport and for your city trip into Amsterdam we offer you a shuttle service into Amsterdam up to four times a day (see our shuttle schedule).

Back in the backpacker hostel after a big day

Coming back to the backpacker hostel after your adventures, you are invited to join the dinner, regularly home cooked by the Flying Pig Youth Hostel staff. Keen for a big night? The youth hostel bar is open all night and we play a wide variety of music. And there is much more to do in the backpacker hostel. You can show us your music skills during the Flying Pig Beach Hostel’s ‘Pig and Play’. You might want to organize your own (theme) party together with some of the staff; this is possible too! Our Flying Pig Beach parties are known to last way into the early hours and they offer you a great chance to meet your fellow backpackers!

In short, the Flying Pig Beach Backpackers Hostel offers you a great mix between relaxation and adventure; a definite must for an all-round Dutch experience!
