• Right in the heart of the Red Light District you will find The Flying Pig Downtown Hostel. Located on one of the district's busiest shopping streets, the Flying Pig Hostel is bomber than the district's greenery. In addition to free wireless Internet, shuttles, key card access, and a guest kitchen, local Deejays spin twice a week in the hostel. Saturday is open turntable night, so if you're feeling like Funkmaster Flex, step right up.

Property Description

Looking for some fun nights of chatting with fellow travellers on lounge pillows, playing pool in the bar, dance to the music of cool DJ's and getting happy in our happy room, Downtown is the ideal spot! If you are in the ' don't-want-to-mingle-tonight-and-just-want-to-watch-television-mood' there are DVD movies playing,24 hour free internet access and the bar is open until 4AM every night, where the bartenders sell the cheapest beers in town!!

Twice a week the pig gets funky, inviting local DJ's to come spin beats on our turntables. (If you want to spin at the pig, Saturday is open turntable night. Ask staff for details).
