It is very nicely designed, the AC was much appreciated and we liked the tea in the mornings. Also nice to have fridge access and towels provided. I liked that we could check in independently.

PERFECT LOCATION right in the main square of Zagreb. I started with location cause honestly it doesn't get any better! The hostel in general is beautiful! very modern, clean and all essentials are available. Breakfast was inclusive (bread,ham,cheese,jams,milk,cereals) more than enough actually. The staff are friendly, the common area is comfortable and the rooms are spacious and designed in a way to offer the most privacy you get in a hostel. Highly recommended!

The staff was welcoming, efficient and helpful; enough showers, the room is pretty quiet and comfortable, there is quite a lot of space in the common areas, useful details such as a vending machine, fuse ball... and there's a little terrace outside (hot on the summer). lockers before check-in and after check-out are very practical. The location is perfect, close to the tram and to the old town.

Great staff. One of the best hostels that I have stayed in and I have stayed in many all over the world. It actually did not have the same feel as most hostels. The vibe was much more like a hotel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    It was one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. It's a clean hostel where you can stay safely. It's within walking distance of all the tourist attractions in the city center. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Iresha helped us with every problem, she's very patient and does her job very well. I've stayed in a hostel many times before. But I can say that this hostel is the best. Thank you very much.

    Great location, just few minutes walk to the old town and many attractions. A lot of good bars and restaurants around the hostel. The bunk bed is really good, it is normal stairs with hard surfaces under the mattress which feels very good.
