The asymmetric unit of the title compound, 2C8H6N2·C6H7NO·2H2O, contains two quinoxaline molecules, one molecule of 3-aminophenol and two water molecules which are hydrogen bonded to form a two-dimensional polymeric structure. Each of the symmetry-independent quinoxaline molecules forms separate stacks of different symmetry. In one set of stacks, the molecules are related by a screw axis and are slightly tilted [dihedral angle = 7.12 (1)°]. In the second set of stacks, adjacent molecules are parallel and related by an inversion center [interplanar distances = 3.376 (4) and 3.473 (4) Å].
