Elephant on the Moon Eco Hostel

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.

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...
