There's no doubt that the Tamka hostel stands out above other accommodation in Warsaw. One of the biggest advantages is its superb location - the building is just around the corner from the most popular streets in the city, Nowy Świat and Krakowskie Przedmieście, and a short 10 minute walk from the Old Town. What does this mean? Put simply, you are within staggering distance of countless clubs, bars, pubs and restaurants
Other attractions of the capital city are also nearby: the business centre, shopping malls and numerous monuments - the Royal Baths included! With all these attractions around, you probably won't just be hanging round the hostel. That being said, it's good to know what this place has to offer: private rooms for 1, 2, 3 or 4 people (with or without bathrooms) as well as single places in bigger rooms: for 6, and 8 people. We take care that the type of room and furnishings of the hostel suit each visitor - although the classical backpacker is well catered for because hostels are made primarily for them. That's why you'll find, amongst other things:
- A common room with DVD player - an ideal place to relax and have a chat,
- Free internet access (as well as wireless internet connection),
- A fully-equipped kitchen,
- Free coffee and tea,
- Breakfast, beverage and snack machines
- Barbeque facilities.
Because of the varied standards of our rooms and the many services provided on the hostel premises, our satisfied guests are also varied - foreign tourists visiting Warsaw, businessmen, organized groups and conference participants. Not only backpackers feel at home here!

| Good place to stay, the room was clean as was the bathrooms. The kitchen and the common room are good. The staff are friendly. Beds aren't that good the top bunk I was in felt like it was about to fall down but it's good value for money and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hostel! | ||

| Stay somewhere else.
Difficult to get in depending on who is minding the buzzer, nothing like showing up in a new place with all your belongings and waiting out in the cold for 25 minuets.
Sketchy people, who are not staying in the hostel, hanging out and wandering the hallways around the rooms. Big security concern.
The mattress was a taco, must have been 10 years old. | ||
