Overview

Poets' Corner is a friendly, cozy and welcoming little hostel in Olomouc, the historic capital of Moravia. Run by former backpackers, we offer all the comforts a traveler needs and lots of information about Olomouc and surrounds to help you enjoy your time in the region.

The hostel is located right within Olomouc's stunning old town centre and offers spacious eight-bed dorms and private rooms which can be made up as doubles, twins, triples or quads. The rooms are all big and bright, and the beds all have quality mattresses and proper cotton linen (included in the price). There’s also a balcony for the smokers, a kitchen for the chefs, laundry service, up-to-date listings of all the cultural events around town, a comfy common room full of armchairs and sofas and lots more.

Olomouc is the old capital of Moravia and is the second largest historic preservation zone in the country, after only Prague. Soaring church towers, winding cobbled back lanes, the ring of parks around the city walls, the UNESCO-listed trinity column and of course the magnificent main square with the renaissance town hall and notorious communist astronomical clock are among Central Europe's finest.

Don’t just take our word for it though; Lonely Planet calls Olomouc “the country’s most underrated city” and says ”The glorious cityscape of Olomouc (possibly Central Europe’s most underrated)…provides the truest sense of what Prague would be like without the crowds, in a word, fabulous” (p267, Czech and Slovak Republics 2007).

Being a university town, there are loads of cheap cafes and bars, and there are some real gems amongst them. For example there’s the café with the famous chocolate pie (ask anyone who’s been here), and the teahouses, Zen temples of luxury where you ring a bell to order and your chai will be served with a flourish. For nighttimes, we have an exclusive guide to two dozen different pubs that we can personally recommend, including the airplane bar, the rock climbing bar and for the freshest beer, the microbrewery just around the corner.

So, you can see that if you were just planning to break up a trip and spend one night with us, you probably underestimated Olomouc a little; “Wish we could have stayed longer” is the most common phrase in our guest book. You really need three full days to see everything properly, but you’re welcome to stay for as short or as long as you like, and we’ll do our best to see that you get the most out of it.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
