“Overall great stay - recommended!”
Central location in a quiet neighborhood. Opposite Berst castle (great view from the terrace!). It is a short walk into town. Facilities were super clean and check in/out smooth sailing. Really good complimentary breakfast. It‘s possible to socialize at the pario outside, yet very quiet at night.

Love this so much hostel! The stone arches and older architecture throughout the hostel give it so much character and charm, and the location is fantastic - with great views, and only a short walk to the main boulevard, restaurants and the city centre. The staff were also really attentive and helpful and always did their best to get everyone in the hostel involved in group activities. The rooms were great as well, clean and comfortable, with aircon/heating in every room, and plenty of cosy blankets for the cooler months.

“Brilliant hostel”
Fantastic hostel with a beautiful outdoor terrace area under grape vines, pomegranate and persimmon trees. Our room was huge in the grand old house that's been converted to a hostel. So much character! Fantastic location within easy walking distance of everything you need and a view across to the castle. I'd absolutely stay again.

“Gorgeous old home in the Gorica neighbourhood with kind staff - will definitely visit again!”
Absolutely gorgeous hostel - almost feels like a boutique hotel. Extremely old house with loads of character and in stunning condition, typical to the region. Beautiful terrace area to chill or eat breakfast. The included breakfast spread was generous. Staff cannot be faulted - wonderful guy at the reception who checked us in and explained all the tours and activities and the housekeeping ladies are super sweet and helpful. Felt like a home. We did the winery tour booked through the hostel which was excellent. Laundry was also quick and easy. The neighbourhood is gorgeous and we almost preferred the Gorica side of town to the main side. Felt very authentic and quiet. Also loved our room - dark, comfortable, cosy, amazing bed and a great night's sleep.

“Really great vibe, activities, staff in a beautiful historic building.”
The whole place felt very clean. The staff were all really chill and nice. The whole building itself is beautiful and cool inside even when blaring outside, so a great escape. I loved that there were really good bunk beds with curtains, which made sleeping so much easier.

“Lovely Hostel”
One of three hostels that form a group that rotates evening events - quiz, meal etc - so you get to meet lots of people. Lovely brick building with terraces and excelllent facilities.

“Amazing place to stay and meet new people”
Beautiful place with a beautiful view and everything is reachable by foot. The staff and the people were very nice and the rooms were comfortable The kitchen is outdoors which was fine by us even though the stove didn’t work… but they offered us to cook in another hostel close by

“Superbe bâtisse dans un merveilleux endroit”
Excellent location, great staff, solid breakfast, plenty of communal areas, with the view on the 1000 windows. Well organized, sometimes they have activities at night and they can help you with tours. Wifi was pretty good but some zones of the property is out reach.
