Andrea specially help to arrange someone to take a Catamaran on that evening from Zadar to Veli Rat to gi.
all reviews » Everything is brilliant about this place: right in the heart of the city with a view to the ancient Forum, staff really friendly and helpful, dorms have large beds with a decor that gives you privacy with big lockers and ensuite bathrooms with shower and toilet room separately. Decoration is modern and colorful and common areas are big though cozy. They have a common fridge and microwave in this common eating area on each floor, but a well equipped kitchen would be great. Though not a problem c. This is without doubt, the best Hostel I have ever come across. If you are going to Zadar, this is THE place to stay! Amazingly designed dorm rooms with super comfy beds and privacy. Yes, the rooms are small but you have everything you need in the room - gorgeous bathroom and separate shower (slick design), pod beds with secure storage and privacy blinds. It is located in the town centre and has amazing facilities including TV room and a communal garden. Breakfast ToGo which is delivered in the. Stayed in 4-bed dorm. It has everything - lovely design, beds with privacy shades and lamp and 2 power sockets each, locker under beds for security, breakfast (albeit basic) delivered in a bag to your bed waiting for you in the morning, waterproof entry cards so you can swim, excellent a/c in each room, wifi that works everywhere. Common room with two tvs and soft mats to relax on. Storage space for luggage if need be. Location right in the middle of town. Great staff who happily give informati. Superclean, in fact I saw clearing lades all day. The cabines to sleep offer more privacy than any hostel I stayed before. Nice and friendly helpful personnel. Location location Location! In themiddle of charming old town, right on the forum, 2 min. Walking from Ferry terminal and airport bus stop. Shower and toilet shared max by four. Breakfast including apple pie delivered to the room each morning. Would certainly stay there again and recommand to go! Its everything advertised for. I stayed in this hostel 5 days, the location is Close to the archaeological areas and the sea is very close only one minute walk. Reasonably priced, very new and clean and a novel way of setting out a hostel with its 4 bed dorms with ensuite layed out in a way so that the two bunk beds are just about completely seperate and in little cubbys so you have loads of privacy (as far as privacy at a hostel goes) VERY helpful staff and flash rooms.. We will be back for sure!. The hostel is better than any of the hotels I stayed in Zadar countly. It is newly decorated with new, modern and functional amenities. The sea view was superb: the Forum is right in front of the hotel and sea just beyond. Simply breathtaking! Also, the breakfast was very good. It is good at least as in hotels. I'd definitely reccomend this hoste to anyone since they have a selection of private rooms and sleeping dorms. 1. Location - best of the best! 2. Modern hostel with a good area and zone planning inside. 3. Safety boxes, breakfast-to-go, PC, area for communication, vending mashines - great!!! 4. I really liked the idea of "traveler book" - a lot of creativity. 5. Maximum privacy in rooms, thanks to special construction of beds. 6. WC and bathroom in each room. 7. Wi-fi all around the hostel. 8. Hair-dryers only under request. Exactly in the heart of the ancient town, it's a very enjoyable place. We stood in one of the double rooms at the last floor (the one with mirrors all over the walls) and we have to say that was amazing. Great desing, superb view on the square and super comfortable bed. Space is not alot, but well organized. Even though it's an hostel, it is quiet. We would come back again. great facilities, very well organized. Perfect rooms with individual cabins instead of traditional bunk beds - with curtains that allow privacy! Each cabin has reading light + 2 power plugs. excellent view on the main square. Common room with cosy pillows in an amphitheater style with projection of movies. Clearly one of best hostels i have ever stayed. It's clean and modern! The staff is friendly and helpful. They leave you a branded paper bag with a little breakfast in the morning by the side of your bed. And I didn't even heard them coming in. Very comfortable and "private" as you can close your space to sleep. Mirror and 2 electrical sockets in your own space. Bathroom and shower inside which dorm. Location is Perfect! Exactly in the heart of the ancient town, & 3 min walk to the the sea organ & the sun greeting. Breakfast Togo which is delivered to your room or you can make it by yourself in the kitchen (in case you will leave early in the morning). Helpful & friendly staff. Easy to find & everybody knows it. Looks like a kind of business Hostel... very clean, safe, friendly staff.. very well designed and style. A private toillet and shower for each room, all the beds can be 'closed'. A high privacity is possible! A nice surprise in the morning; they let on our room a bag with some snacks (I didn't book room with breakfest). Great funky design. Fun. Helpful staff. Best position. Free WiFi. Have been telling everyone I meet about it. Zadar is a lovely old, historical Roman town, easy to move around, interesting and relaxing. I just missed the Summer music festival in one of the churches. The Sea Organ was a new experience too. The way they have everything automated is very convenient and user friendly. Also, how they separate the bathroom and the toilet in 2 different corners is also a good idea. Each bed has its own curtain to decide when to block off the light and visibility give the space both privacy and sociality. Central location - couldn't improve on position. Plenty of restaurants and places to eat and drink. Language no barrier as everyone understands English. Our room was small but the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was unbelievable with the mirrors and tiles. Superb.... This hostel has a crazy design!!! Breakfast was delicious, the staff very helpful and excellent location!!! I think It's a bit expensive but if you book in advance you can get a really good deal :) In any case, it totally worth it!!!. Really interesting designer hostel with quirky rooms and interesting features. Best aspect were the staff who could not have been more welcoming or helpful. Location is also great with the old town of Zadar quite literally on the doorstep!. The staff was so friendly, they helped as a lot with information about the city, and touristic information. The location is excellent, really close to the beach and in the center of the old town. And the hotel in general is very clean. right in the center,very easy to find. we had double room.it was great stay. the lady at reception was very friendly and helpful. room is not very big but enough for two, and very funtional. i will certainly recommend it. The location couldn't be better and staff was helpful and kind. Loved the design, how private the beds are and I thought I wouldn't have much space in the room from other reviews I read, but there was space enough. I liked the location, the staff, the place in general, although the rooms are a bit tight, but I loved the concept and I loved that they leave you your breafeast in a littl bag, very nice :-). Friendly reception staff, tiny but amazing showers, the privacy of my bed bunk blinds, the really clean and comfy duvet bed, the seaview from the room, the breakfast bag... "5-star" hostel! Very clean, modern and cozy. Location cannot be better. Magnificent view from your window. Very nice and helpful girl on reception. I felt very welcome!. The best hostel I have ever stayed in! Makes me want to come back to Zadar just to stay here. Absolutely amazed. Staff was great and helpful. Rooms funky and clean. Location is right in the center Only 20 kuna taxi ride from the bus station WiFi works Good breakfast Friendly staffs - entrepreneurs Very clean Excellent design. Very unique and quirky. Welcoming Staff always willing to help. The bed separators allowed for privacy The showers and bathroom were convenient inside the room. Fantastic location right in the centre of Zadar. Bunks are like self contained sleeping pods with blinds for privacy. Spotlessly clean,helpful 24 hr front desk. Great location, great staff. The light breakfast pack (delivered in the room!) was a nice surprise. The room layout makes a 4 bed dorm feels like a 2 bed. Nice!. Very cool staff, very clean beds and hostel, good kitchen area and outdoor patio area, excellent location, easy to find, beds were quite comfortable. Amazing! Great confort, nothing common with other youth hostel. Don't hesitate one second to book this place, compare to Zadar accomodation offers!. modern Design-Hostel in the old-town; vendor machines with drinks and sweets; breakfast2go included, optonal breakfast-buffet which is very good!;. Excellent staff- very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. In the center of old Zadar but with excellent windows, that is, very quiet rooms. The hotel is ideally situated in the city center. The standard room is small but clean, well equiped, nice, design. Warm welcome. A good address. I loved the unique style of the rooms. Breakfast every day and the available kitchen to make something small for us. The location was perfect. I can't think of a negative thing. Beautiful rooms Friendly staff In the center Clean I had a nice view on the 3rd floor Really good breakfast. Friendly staff, clean place, very private beds (in dorms) with curtains. Location in city center, breakfast ToGo – very good. Nice design. Clean room, nice breakfast and very well designed room. Staff were very helpful. Excellent location in the centre Zadar. location in the old city perfect, near everything. Staff so nice and kind. They gladly help you if you need something. This hostel is totally amazing! Perfect location, friendly staff and the breakfast to go was a good surprise!. Location to sea and main part of Zadar old town. Very nice room, great hotel staff, nice breakfast included. Very modern Hostel with nice interior design. I liked the small breakfast which was dropped by the door. The location was excellent and the staff was extremely helpful and always very friendly! Good breakfast. nice rooms! strategic locations! great friendly stuff! awesome lounge areas and fully equipped kitchen. Central location. Very very modern room. I enjoined to be there.I recommend to anybody visiting zadar. Nice place. like a real hotel. equipment is standard. The location is perfect!!!!! Love this place!!!. We really liked the design set-up of the room and bathrooms. Also, location-location-location!!!!. Very nice and clean hotel. Very fancy with door keycards that also open your personal locker. Location, view. Helpful little 'travel booklet they provide. Interesting layout/design. Great Location Lovely Rooms Helpful Staff Cool Breakfast Great mix of other travellers. A self-service laundry would be perfect :). Didn't need it, but cooking facilities are very basic (mini oven and sink only). Small fridge that gets filled fast (and staff clear it fast too - drink bottles, not food). Nothing at all!. 1. Be prepared that this hostel is near Bell Tower ;) 2. Guy on reception with a telephone is always speaking on telephone)))) Absolutely unhelpful. Heeeey, man, stop doing this :). For those who need, there's no elevator. Really small spaces in the toilets and shower facilities. If the space to take bath was bigger, wouldn't hurt, but it's quite all right. It could have a meal area. Just a table, few chairs and coffee machine. No Elevator, so be prepared for this. The rooms would be a bit small for two persons. very small facilities... Luggage couldn't fit in the lockers... very small toillets and bathroons.. I missed some hanging points on shower.. No lift, but staff happy to carry case up or down the stairs. Reasonable fitness needed. I don't like that stained ladder leading to the upper bed as it's easy to get hurt by it. Our room was very small with no room to move about. There was no dressing table and no room for one. Clothes hang on a metal rail. Very basic. The 45 degree floors in the double room make for an interesting challenge in the mornings - not so easy with a hangover!!. The dorms for 4 persons was small. But it was not a big problem, since the design of the rooms help with the space. Big group of kids yellling throught the whole day very impolite. I just wish I was in another floor. It has everything in the kitchen except for a stove to cook, I would appreciate that but I supose it said somewhere that it didnt have one, anyway I just miss that. :-). Not being able to find my room, super confusing door numbering (even though it added to the quirkiness of the whole experience) and not being told about the facilities- had to work it all out for myself. Also did not know about breakfast bag until I had already bought myself a pastry so it would have bee nice to be told about that. Nothing. Nothing!. Very hot at night. Nothing really. The walking area inside the rooms was too narrow, it was hard to move around. to leave :(. small 4-bed-room; very small toilet/shower; bed-boxes; far away from the main bus-station;. Rooms are very small, but it is somewhat expected. The rooms are a bit too small for two ladies ;-). No microwave. We stayed for 7 nights and the bed settings and towels were never changed during the stay :(. Not the same athmosphere as in most hostels. People don't go there to meet new people. Not a quiet place, due to location as well, the shared areas are close to the rooms - and the kitchen area can be noisy. It was all good - no complaints.
