The Flying Pig Downtown Hostel in Amsterdam, Netherlands is the place to be if you're looking for fun nights and socializing with other travelers in a comfortable setting. It's a popular hostel for partying but there are some great facilities where you can just sit back and relax as well. You can chill out in the hostel and play pool in the bar or you can enjoy the dance music and the DJ hosted party that happens regularly. Twice a week the hostel hosts a party. If you're in a more mellow mood there's also a television room with a DVD player and free internet access 24 hours a day. The bar stays open until four in the morning and the beer is some of the cheapest in town.
The hostel also offers a free and complete kitchen where many travelers get to know each other during meal times. The hostel itself is only a couple minutes walk from the central train station and you're surrounding by some good, but cheap restaurants, shops, and more. It's also a few minutes walk from Amsterdam's world famous Red Light district. Other nearby sights include the Anne Frank House, the Royal Palace, and Dam Square.
Please do take note that the maximum stay at the hostel is seven days.
The Flying Pig Downtown Hostel is just beside the best shopping street in the city. You can get some great deals and do some good bargain shopping just outside the door. You'll also find some of the city's more affordable restaurants and the outdoor market at Waterlooplein near by as well.
It's a quick walk from the Central Station. Just head towards the Damrak and go by the Victoria Hotel. Turn at the first alley to your right and then walk until you get to the end. You'll see the hostel at number 100.
