Guest Reviews
- 小林 (10/5): Cozy hostel like home - The hostel is super clean and the facilities are great. It is a 5-minute walk to the bus station. It is 20 minutes walk to the Ohrid lake.
- Andrés (10/5): -
- Danilo (10/5): The most beautiful hostel ever - The most beautiful and well decorated hostel ever; extreme good taste for all; from the very good quality towel, to the colors and decoration you can notice all the carefully made project.
The bed is comfortable, good space room, very close to the bus station and a shopping mall; I loved every single detail of that hostel and really want to home back for more days The only point or the distance for the city center; bust it's a beautiful and nice walk around the orchid gardens that didn't bother me
- Bennet (10/5): -
- Malvika (10/5): Fantastic stay - The BEST stay in Europe in my favourite city Ohrid. Iris agata is an Ikea model hostel. I took a room with an ensuite bathroom. It's new, painstakingly made with such finesse. The host is such a nice person. So helpful. Lots of teas and cooking supplies provided. Lovely deck with flowers to chill at . Easy systems with key and codes. It's an easy, lovely 20 mins walk to the tourist centre and just 5 minutes walk from the bus station. After 12 hectic days all over Eastern Europe, this feels like home ❤️ (perhaps better 😅) . Vladimir is responsive on whatsapp. Updated me with all prior to my arrival and responds to ally queries patiently. I wish all hostels , globally learn from this and become as good taking pride in hosting us. I'm so grateful Nothing!
- Rhiann (10/5): Excellent stay at Iris Agata - Vladimir was very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was so nice, good shower and beds, and lovely decor It was a bit far from the centre of Ohrid
- Lauren (10/5): Great for a solo trip to Ohrid - I stayed for 2 nights as a solo traveller at Iris Agata, and it lived up to expectations! I loved the aesthetic of the property, and the dorm room was a great size, with spacious bunks.
The owner, Vladimir, was lovely too - even offering some postcards as a gift at the end of my stay. If I were to come back to Ohrid, I would definitely stay here again!
- Viktorija (10/5): Top place! One of the best hill steps I’ve ever stayed! - Excellent stay—very caring host, stylish and impeccably clean space, and a great location near the main bus station. Would definitely choose it again! Nothing
- Seok (10/5): -
- Mads Bang (10/5): - Probably the best hostel in all of Macedonia. It looks exactly like the photos, it is clean, the beds are good and the host is really friendly and helpful.
- Nikolina (10/5): Perfect little escape 🍷🍀 - Perfect location if you, like myself, don't like to carry your luggage far from the bus station. :) Super close to the station, couple of minutes to the shopping centre and a café, groceries etc., 15-20 minutes of light walk to the old town centre and all the attractions.
The accomodation has everything you might need, even if you forgot your shampoo. :D
The host is an wonderful man, he gave me some honest suggestions, was ready to show me around (if I would be here for the first time), and we chatted a bit, made me the warmest welcome. I got the full cultural experience with the locals and Ohrid. I will surely be back, I just need to bring my family and friends next time! My vacation didn't last longer. :)
- Joanne (10/5): The cutest hostel! - The most picture perfect and cozy stay! The hostel is exactly like the pictures and the checkin process is super simple. The hostel has everything you need, and it’s really close to the bus station. Everything was super clean and organised! Tiny bit far from the main area, but it wasn’t a problem for me because I already knew that when I booked the place.
- Tingyi (10/5): - Hostel is same as picture, very clean and beautiful. It’s easy to use WhatsApp to connect with owner and always prompt reply, there is a nice bakery near to hostel, highly recommend :) No
- CHEN CHIN (10/5): 用心經營的房東 - 房東Vladimir先生真的很用心經營,當我們抵達前就詳細告知所有入住事項。抵達住處還特地來跟我們見面並把所有吃喝玩樂和景點的資訊跟我們分享,真的讓人很感動。
房間是有用心設計的,每個小細節都很注重,現代感很強,我們很喜歡,房東說他的建築師女兒參與許多,他一定以他的女兒為榮。
因我們是背包客,喜歡選擇客運站附近的住宿,Iris Agata符合我們的需求,地點非常好,走路大約5分鐘就到客運站
若有機會一定會再入住這間優質的民宿。

- Minjun (10/5): - Honestly it was the cleanest hostel I've ever stayed with very aesthetic interior it is a small hostel but they had everything i needed, i had a really good quality of sleep as well i stayed for 3 nights every night there were only 2 guests including me so felt like I used airbnb or hotel also it is super close to the bus station like 5 minutes on foot Close to the bus station means a bit far from the center but for me it was walkable still
- Mike (10/5): Close to the bus station. - - comfy beds.
- very clean facilities.
- a bakery next door, serves delicious food.
- the host was very attentive & friendly. - nothing worth mentioning.
- 林金鳳 (9/5): - 非常喜歡,很雅靜,,離車站附近
- ESRA (10/5): -
- rtaipe (8/5): - Hostel pequeño, limpio y ordenado, ubicado cerca de la estación de autobuses y de varios supermercados. La principal desventaja es su distancia: se encuentra a unos 25 minutos del centro de la ciudad y a 45 minutos del principal atractivo turístico.
- Genies Vinonda (10/5): - I really enjoyed my stay here. The interior is beautiful, the owner is very kind, and the place feels extremely comfortable. What impressed me the most is the cleanliness — it’s absolutely number one. Everything is perfectly tidy and spotless every single day. Highly recommended! NOTHINGGGG !! I had an amazing experience staying here 💖
- Yukiko (9/5): - インテリアがカラフルでかわいいです。テラスも雰囲気が良くてとてもくつろげました。キッチンもあり、無料のコーヒー、ティー、キャンディが置いてあるのがうれしい。オーナーさんもフレンドリーで親切でした。 バスターミナルからは近いですが、湖や旧市街には少し遠いです。でも散歩がてら歩いて行ける距離です。

- Toshihiro (10/5): -
- Hajo (10/5): Wunderschön hier! - Sehr schöne Ausstattung, liebevoll gestaltet und sehr nette Gastgeber.
- nancyw (10/5): I'm in love with Iris Agata - I absolutely loved this place! The best hostel ever, with Wes Anderson esque decor, exquisitely designed interiors and very relaxing. This is the place in Ohrid if you're looking to take a breather and chill. Incredibly clean and tasteful, not too many people and the residents were respectful and quiet. There's a nice backyard where you can spend some time, a fantastic bakery next door, and the bed was simply heavenly. Handy desk also, for work or writing.
Thank you Vladimir and Ema, for making me feel at home for a few days :) it was hard to leave!
I highly recommend and can't wait to go back. Nothing. Everything was perfect.
- Margarita (10/5): - Easily the best hostel I've stayed in around 5 continents.
Super clean and well attended, comfy beds, great sleep away from traffic but near the bus station, Ohrid mall and supermarkets, 15 minutes walk to the lake.
Kitchen and bathroom facilities are great, security, WiFi and company of travelers you meet - all is just wonderful. As well as the price and above all the hospitality of Vladimir and his two daughters, one of whom is an architect who designed this place. He even gave me a ride to my next accommodation!
5 out of 5 ⭐
Highly recommend.

Clean
A/C in the dorm
Bus station is literally 2 mn walk

- Gorana (9/5): -
- Pavlova (10/5): Short but sweet, thanks to Iris Agata - Beautifully designed. Every detail is thought through. There's everything you could need in a rental and the owner is ready to help at any hour with any task, as well as very friendly.
- Ana (10/5): Exceptional - One of the most beautiful hostels I have ever been so far! Very clean and cozy, with stylish details and comfortable space throughout whole property. I would definitely return and recommend it to others !
- Hou (9/5): Superb -
- Ragu (10/5): Great stay in Orhid - Everything is fine in this property. I find the atmosphere is very relaxed. None
- Maia (10/5): A hostel so good I am now overly critical of all the next ones - This is the nicest and cleanest hostel I have ever been to! The owners’ daughter is an architect, so everything is pleasing to the eye as well as functional. Everything is new and you can tell - bewn opened less than a year! I also loved that it was a small hostel (maybe 8-10ppl max?) and completely quiet. Only 5 minutes from the bus station and Ohrid mall; around 15 minutes to the harbour. Perfect place and a perfect stay!
- Hannia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Özlem (10/5): Exceptional - The owner was really kind, the location was great, everything was clean and neat.
- Henderson (10/5): Definitely recommend - The host is very accommodating and keeps everything clean. I met some great people at the hostel and there were only 2 other people at a time staying in the room when I was there. I ended up staying for almost a week. They have plugs next to each bed, large lockers,hot water and a nice area to cook in. After letting the owner know I had problems with my ankle one day after walking to the center, he offered me a free bike to explore and get to know the place the next day after I had arrived. This was the first time I have stayed in a hostel and it was better than I had imagined it would be. I 100% recommend this hostel to anyone. Everything was good
- Anu (10/5): We would stay again! - Location was close to the city square and all the other main sights. Host was very friendly and the place was clean and comfortable.
- Svenja (10/5): Exceptional - Vladimir was very helpful and even drove with me to a doctors office and a pharmacy. The hostel was very clean and well equipped as well as nicely decorated. Would recommend, especially if you travel by bus. It’s a short walk into the city center.

The bus terminal is a five minute walk /. It was a small space but nobody else was there so I had the space to myself. The bed was comfortable and the temperature was maintained well
- Barbara (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rathan (9/5): Wonderful stay, close to bus station and very clean room with free coffee/tea -

- Ulaş (10/5): Exceptional - He opened the room for us at 8 am. The owner is extremely helpful and kind. The hostel is super clean and comfy. We stay in private room, there was a AC working well

- Alexandra (10/5): Super cosy place - It's an amazing place! Super cosy and clean, very comfortable bed and pillow, it's new, exacly like on pictures (even better). The owner is super nice, always here to help or answer questions if needed. The shared room has lockers, you can charge your phone and has a light, which is cool. I enjoyed the green outdoor space every morning. It's close to the bus station, has multiple supermarkets, and a bakery and you need to walk a little to the city center.
Honestly, it's a great place. Nothing
- Eva (10/5): Exceptional -

The owners are incredibly sweet and kind, checking on your comfort to make the stay as good as possible
It is a 20 minutes walk to the old town but you can have peace and quiet, just a few meters from the bus station, perfect location I struggle a bit with the wifi, but I work online so I need a very strong connection, it was my bad
- Goran (10/5): Exceptional - I love the interior and the moment that you are really near from the center. Modern, cozy place and the stuff is super nice. Too bad that I didn’t had more free time to chill on the terrace :) Would visit again for sure!
- Drilona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Svetlana (10/5): I highly recommend it. I will come back again for sure. - The joint space balcony is perfect for chill after beach
- Jane (10/5): THE BEST HOSTEL !!!😀😀 - This is the place when you will arrive in Ohrid if you need a hostel 😀😀
Excellent hostel and maybe one of the best one ever. Clean rooms, cool kitchen, very comfort beds, AC, great balcony and very nice people. The center is 15min walking.
The host is amazing and very nice person.
10/10👍👍 Nothing, everything was great.
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional - Nice hosts, very close to the bus station and pretty much everything you need for a good time in the city. Everything was great.

- Usama (10/5): Exceptional - I had an amazing stay at this hostel! Located conveniently close to the Ohrid central bus station, it made my arrival and departure super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond, offering fantastic suggestions for places to visit and the best food spots in the city.
The hostel's owner, an architect, has beautifully designed the interior. The rooms are equipped with air conditioning, and the toilets are impeccably clean and stylishly designed. The common kitchen area offers free coffee, tea, and candies, which was a lovely touch.
One of the highlights was their excellent service—they kindly kept my luggage after checkout, allowing me to explore the city freely. The rooms also feature lockers and a big TV, adding to the comfort and convenience.
Overall, this hostel provided an exceptional experience. Highly recommend! 10/10! The only downside is that it is located a bit far from the beach. However, the price I paid compensated for this really well, making it an excellent value for the experience provided.
- Stefan (10/5): Excellent value. Highly recommend - Fantastic layout of the premise. The staff friendly and very helpful. Home feeling
- Sara (10/5): Stylish, modern, spotless - Nice, quiet and spotless hostel with quality forniture, well-equipped kitchen, comfy beds and very nice back-yard with beautiful flowers.
Although it was very hot outside, we never needed air conditioning because inside it was nice and fresh.
Good location, bakery next door.
We had a great stay in Iris Hostel, we felt very welcomed, by the owner and his daughter.
We wish we had stayed longer.
I strongly recommend!!!
