Conveniently located in the city centre and attached to a busy and fun club bar. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm which had a v comfortable bed and i met some lovely people but during the day i saw a rat in the restaurant seating area 😳

Basic expensive for what was offered but close to everything in Amsterdam

I would have given at least one other star had someone came into my room to clean it AT LEAST ONCE during my entire stay. I even extended my stay by one night and I specifically asked the front desk staff to please make sure my room would get cleaned. They instructed me to hang the “clean my room” sign by the door, which I did for two consecutive days, and nothing. There are also weird smells in the room. I can see they probably don’t even sanitize these rooms thoroughly after each guest. I had a private room. Location is excellent. Just walking distance from the red light district.

As I said before, dirty. I extended my stay by one night and then still didn’t bother to come clean the room.

Near twon

Great location and there’s a really big safe/lock box for each person under the bed - bring your own lock! Everything was super clean too. My only problem was how long the check in process took since there were only two people at the front desk and they worked very slowly

I must admit, I was a little apprehensive of booking this place, but to my surprise it’s a hidden gem !! Super clean, yes it doesn’t have bells and whistles on it but functionality is the key. Toilets, showers all commune style but kept spotlessly clean at all times. The bar downstairs is superb where you can get beers and food from, and with its own outside smoking are caters for all needs. I was travelling solo but found the bed more than adequate in a 4 dorm and the privacy curtain made it feel very homely. Within the bed area you have a lamp and a charge point for the phone and under the bed there is a lockable storage unit for your own personal equipment to be securely stored away when your asleep / out. Staff are superb aswell and all so very friendly.

The hostel is located in the heart of Amsterdam. Its about a 1min walk from the red right district. There are plenty of good bars and restaurants close to the hostel. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Its probably the best hostel in Amsterdam. I have stayed in plenty of different ones that dont match up to this one.

The smell of the room was horrible!

It's the place you can find, they are very bad people. They treat customers very badly and it doesn't matter if you'll be first in line because they'll give you the last

Smooth check in! Helpful staff. The room was clean and there were plenty of towels! Great shower, that is shared. Im an older solo traveler, and I felt welcome and comfortable at St. Christopher’s.

Great staff at the hostel; everyone is very friendly and assists in guest requests. Definitely a hostel and not a hotel - a lot of students, transients, but we stayed in a private room with a private bathroom and it was as satisfactory as any other hotel. Would definitely recommend whether you stay as a guest with others or if you book a private room.

Let's get this out of the way, fellow guests/roommates can make or break your hostel stay, which, is usually beyond your control when traveling solo. This review will not take that into account. The hostel bed was comfortable, nice and not too firm. Pillow was supportive and the linen/blanket was clean. Security was also very good. On-site self service laundry was also very convenient. Very, very friendly and welcoming staff at the reception. Made you feel welcome at the hostel. Housekeeping is excellent and a towel is provided daily free of charge. Sheets and towels are changed daily!!! A few things to consider. Location is in a busy part of downtown and street noise into the night is unavoidable, comes with the territory. Bathroom in our ensuite had a few quirks, you'll take a shower in a bathtub and water will get to the bathroom floor. Bathroom light did not have an on/off switch, a bit odd. Overall a good experience during the 6 night stay at the hostel. Recommend to book here! 👍👍👍

St Christopher's at the Winston is in a fantastic location, easily accessible from central station. Plenty of great bars and places to eat around the location. Rooms are basic but have everything you need. Room was clean and staff were friendly.
