Proud to be recommended by Lonely Planet, The Rough Guide and other good guidebooks we would like to invite you to visit us at Greg-Tom's! We are a small and cozy hostel located in comfortable, spacious apartments. Our shelter hostel is situated right in the heart of all the most important events; opposite the Main Train Station, next to a huge shopping mall with almost 300 shops, and only 3 minutes walking to the Main Square. Combining our outgoing attitude and cozy setting, we managed to create relaxing, home-like atmosphere.
Traveling on the night train from Prague or Budapest and not having idea where to go so early in the morning?
Pop in to Greg & Tom Hostel reception where we'll check you in at once and a lovely breakfast is waiting for you from 6 o'clock in the morning.
Contrary to some hostels, you can check-in at any time at Greg & Tom's and wait for your bed in our comfortably furnished common room, having a cup of coffee and a chat with our staff. We also provide you with towels just in case you want to take a shower.

Event schedule, contents of breakfast and bonus features we offer change seasonally. Guests should follow all the changes on our website and contact us in case of any doubts or questions.

Directions
Check-in at the reception of Greg&Tom Hostel (Pawia Street 12/7)
FROM THE MAIN TRAIN STATION
Our hostel is only 200 meters away from the train station. However, due to insufficient labeling getting out of the train station could be quite a challenge. Follow instructions below to avoid confusion and save time.
1.Leave the train safely and gracefully!
2.You are at the platform. There are 3 staircases leading to 3 different arrival halls under the platform. Which one to take to save time? Take the one at the very beginning of the platform. What does 'the very beginning of the platform' mean? It means that this staircase is closer to main building of the station and city center and majority of natives will go this direction . Follow the crowd!
3.Walk down the stairs, turn right and get to the very end of underground arrival hall.
4. Exit underground arrival hall and take either route A or B
ROUTE A
5.. Head to the shopping mall called GALERIA KRAKOWSKA which is an extension of the underground arrival hall.(The mall is closed from 10 pm till 8 am and on Polish bank holidays. If that is the case check option B)
6.Find escalator , get to the ground level and leave the mall. You are on Pawia Street
7. Turn left ,walk for about 100 meters , cross the street and find building #12
ROUTE B
5.Walk up the stairs and head to the main building of the station.
6. Leave the main building. You are facing spacious plaza with a modern building of the shopping mall GALERIA KRAKOWSKA on your right.
7.Walk along shopping mall's walls till they end . You are on PAWIA Street.
8. Cross the street and find building #12
FROM THE MAIN BUS STATION
The Main Bus station and the Main Train Station are situated next to each other!
1.Leave the Bus terminal . You have to go through the train station in order to get to the city center and the hostel.
2. Find the entrance to train station underground arrival hall and walk down the stairs.
3.Walk straight to the very end of the underground arrival hall.
4. Exit underground arrival hall and take either route A or B ( MENTIONED IN THE TRAIN STATION SECTION)
FROM THE AIRPORT
The easiest way to get to the hostel is to take a train from the airport train terminal to the Main Train Station .
From the airport terminal building take a free shuttle bus , which is synchronzied with the trains or walk 200 meters to the train terminal
The trains operate from approx 4.24 in the morning to 00.15 the next day. The ticket price is only 4 pln( 1 euro and a few cents), you may buy it from the train operator. Please remember to get some Polish change before buying the ticket because those train operators are always short of change and will refuse taking 100 pln banknotes! The ride is approx 20 minutes long.
When you get to the Main Train Station , please follow the instructions in the MAIN TRAIN STATION section above
