Housed in a historic regional-style building, the Good Bye Lenin Hostel Zakopane features free Wi-Fi and a common fully equipped kitchenette. The Tatra National Park is only 200 metres away.

Breakfast is served at the hostel dining room. Guests can enjoy tea and coffee free of charge 24 hours a day. A kitchen area comes with a microwave and a refrigerator.

It's a very small and cozy hostel while being able to host a lot of people. This in addition to being a bit away from the town creates a really great social atmosphere.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Very great location. Around 1.2km to city center and 1.3 km to skiing place. Price is very cheap as well. It has a shared kitchen with complete utensils. The receptionist was friendly and informative (gave us a quick background on Zakopane's mountains, recommended good restaurants, and gave us some tips on how to explore Zakopane). He even upgraded us to a room with a balcony (with great view) and a private bathroom.

    To be honest quite cheap and small hostel with great location, however there are things to improve. For example we did not get towels and Wi-Fi was very slow. You are allowed to leave bags when your reservation is expired which is brilliant. When it comes to cooking everything is available. Rubbish is not taken out on time in the washroom.

    Hostel is 1min walk to Krupowki str. - center of Zakopane. Also really close to ski slope and real mountains. Bed is comfortable, lots of heating batteries so we could dry our ski costumes and shoes. Kitchen has all the facilities and in 20m Zabka (cheap store with cooked food). Definitely worth money. Recommend 👍

    Excellent international staff with a very welcoming approach. Game nights and dinners. Cozy environment and family atmosphere. The price is extremely cheap, especially for what you get in return. If I return to Zakopane I would definitely stay at GBL hostel again!

    The place is quite small (1room for 1floor), so it’s like we’re all roommates in a small apartment. Really good atmosphere, perfect place to meet new people. The place is really cheap, it was clean, and there was hair dryer. If I come back to Zakopane, I’ll definitely stay in this hostel again.
