Willemstad's premier 'poshtel' (an upscale hostel, for the uninitiated) opened in 2017 in a formerly abandoned parliament building, and its central location in Pietermaai is a big draw. The restored interior is artsy and cheerful, fostering a convivial vibe, and the roof deck and communal kitchen are good spots to make friends. Every guest gets a complimentary bike!
Bunks in the six- and 16-bed dorms are extra long, with privacy curtains, reading lights and electric sockets. Some private rooms have balconies. All accommodations are sparkling clean.
