The Green Elephant was for me a community setting in which i found it pleasant to reside. A community environment brings strength of heart and joy of mind. The breakfast was outstanding and well worth the price. You would be pressed to find a more helpful staff.

My friend and I both enjoyed our stay at Green Elephant Hostel. Staff were very welcoming and helpful, and our hostel was clean, inviting and offered several on site amenities. It is conveniently located right near the train station as well. I would definitely recommend the hostel for your stay in Maastricht.

A hostel for everyone!c

My husband and I had a lovely stay at the Green Elephant! They offer a good variety of food at their breakfast for a reasonable cost, but they also had a kitchen in the basement here we could prepare and store our own food. They also have a coffee machine that was free to use between 7am-11am, whether or not you paid for their breakfast. We stayed in one of the pod rooms and were impressed with how comfortable and surprisingly spacious the beds were. At this hostel, there were people of all ages, families, and

Absolutely enjoyed my stay here. The room was so comfortable and everyone was so respectful of being quiet. The front desk staff were also very friendly. I only wish I had brought a swimsuit so I could have enjoyed the spa, but did not think of it. It is also very conveniently located by the train station. I would absolutely stay here again.

Enjoyed it a lot. We travelled with two kids and while the room was very small with 5 beds, it was very pleasant stay. Private en-suite helped.
Dalen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The pods are a very unique accommodation option as each was a decent size. The shared toilet and bathroom was always clean and stocked. I was lucky to have respectful (mostly) neighbours after midnight - 7am The spa area is amazing! I had this to myself for 1hr out of my 90min session and it was so good for the muscles before bed.

Clean and fresh accommodation at reasonable price

A nice surprise. I stayed in a private room with private bathroom. The room was well furnished and comfortable and I loved the real plants in the room and passage. The hotel is within walking distance of the centre and around the corner form the station. The hotel has a great concept with the differing accommodation that it offers and I can highly recommend it.
Kari, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The place was clean and beautiful, with a garden, living rooms, free tea service all day long, and friendly multilanguage staff. Parking is a nightmare. There is a parking lot very close, but quite expensive. Good thing you can use a bike or skate boards from the hostel, and if you have a car you can park for free in the street from 8pm till 8 am
Beti, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very pet friendly and cozy

We had a great stay here for one night with our 2 dogs, unfortunately as we booked it just 2 hours before arriving we couldn’t stay longer. We’d definitely come back next time we are in town! We were very warmly greeted and our dogs got treated with a peanut cookie on arrival and as it was my partner’s birthday we even got a beer as a welcome drink. The room was super cozy with a bathtub in it. Breakfast was vegetarian and the spreads were so delicious. A courtyard was available where the dogs could run off leach and also do their buisness, if you travel with your dogs I would very much suggest you stay here as it’s one of the best hotels we’ve stayed at with our dogs.

Ostello di alta qualitá

Ho prenotato questo ostello perché avevo un bus alle 4 di mattina e ho deciso di appoggiarmi su un letto per quelle poche ore che avrei avuto di attesa. Ho scelto questo perché vicino alla stazione dei treni e dei bus, e perché aveva recensioni molto buone. La scelta é stata perfetta perché la struttura é molto bella e ha un ambiente piú che accogliente. Da ripetere.

Goede locatie voor een leuk hostel

Prima verblijf. Wel beetje duur €108,00 voor een pod in een hostel. Ook beetje benauwd. Verder zeer vriendelijk personeel en een leuk welkomsdrankje. Locatie was top!
