Hostels in Croatia
Just few years ago, there were relatively few youth hostels in Croatia but in recent times this kind of accommodation offer is increasing, so nowadays, there is plenty of hostel accommodation all over Croatia - in larger towns such as Dubrovnik, Zagreb, Rijeka, Zadar, Pula as well as along the Adriatic Coast in various smaller and larger places, most of them located in or near the centre of town.
Hostel accommodation in Croatia:
Hostels in Croatia are offering accommodation to travelers or backpackers and providing budget accommodation where one can rent a bed, or bunk bed, in a dormitory with shared bathrooms, common rooms and sometimes a kitchen. Rooms are mixed or single-sex, and some hostels offer private single, double or triple rooms too. Hostels in Croatia are generally cheaper than Croatian hotels (rates are considerably lower) and most of hostels offer opportunity to share books, brochures, info leaflets, videos, DVD's and any other useful traveler's items. Hostels are an excellent alternative for solo travellers as they offer informal environment with more opportunities to socialize in dormitory accommodation, have cozier common rooms (living rooms) and self-catering option gives you also opportunity to socialize in kitchen, while preparing meal, so it is easy to meet a traveling companion, if you wish.. Because this kind of accommodation is so popular, you should reserve your place well in advance.
