Featured Accommodations (See All)
Don\'t hestitate - book a bed!
You are invited to relax in the cosy and friendly atmosphere of Krakow\'s first eco-friendly hostel, just a short walk from the old town and all its attractions. Enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Elephant on the Moon, situated on a bend of the picturesque Vistula river, and unwind in our garden amond the magnolias and rhodedendrons after a long day\'s sightseeing or a night on the tiles. There you can toss a coin into our fountain, and make a wish. Who knows, it may come true; this is, after all, magical Krakow...
It\'s easy to reach all the best that Krakow has to offer from the hostel - so you will never be far from Wawel Castle, the historic market square, and the former Jewish district of Kazimierz. We can also help you plan trips further afield, to Auschwitz, the breathtaking Tatra mountains, the salt mine at Wielicka, and more...
We\'ve got everything you need during your stay, including:
A hearty breakfast, at no extra cost, every day. And if you\'re thinking of hostel fare as toast and coffee, think again - you might not need to eat again until dinner time!
Mineral water, coffee and tea, 24 hours a day.
Fully-equipped kitchen.
Free internet access and wi-fi in every room
DVD collection featuring more than 100 films in English, French, Italian and, of course, Polish
Free towels in private rooms
No school groups or stag parties (maximum group size is seven - but we\'re happy to rent out the whole hostel if you\'ve more than that in your party)
Professional tourist information service from our English speaking team. We are all Krakow born and bred - we know our town and we\'re delighted to share its secrets with guests.
Free maps and guidebooks on arrival
Ticket booking service for Auschwitz, the salt mine, Zakpane, Warsaw, balloon rides, concerts, festivals and more.
Laundry service
Book exchange
24 hour reception and security
Airport pick-up at less than the price of a taxi
Hairdryer, iron and ironing board
Bike rental via our partners in the city
However you reach us, we have all that you need.
If you\'re travelling on the night train from Prague or Budapest, you can be sure of a warm welcome, coffee and breakfast when you arrive - along with a hot shower. If your room is vacant you can take a nap, or help yourself to drinks while you wait.
On a gap year tour or seeing the world? You can slow down, rest up with a good book (and get your laundry done!) at Elephant on the Moon because life\'s too short for all that stress.
Driving in? You can be confident that your car will be safe in our secure, private parking area.
If you\'re here for a romantic weekend, we have private rooms - and the banks of the nearby Vistula river are perfect for long, lingering walks together.
Or maybe you\'re on the road alone. That\'s why we have single rooms - or six-bed dorms if you\'re feeling sociable!
Planning to let your hair down for the weekend? We know the best pubs in town, and we have special VIP invitations for our guests.
Travelling with your family? Elephant on the Moon is safe and comfortable - a home from home.
So read our reviews, book a bed, and feel invited by Aga and the team!
*Please note, we do not accept any bookings for stag party groups. In this case your booking will be canceled and your 10% deposit will not be refunded.
