Guest Reviews
- Eric (10/5): - Was in Zagreb for a quick stay, and The Dots was great, it had more of a Bed and Breakfast vibe.
- Stefan (10/5): - Mycket bra och prisvärt!
- Tom (10/5): A fabulous experience - Fantastic family-run establishment. A lovely place, very relaxed and with great attention to detail. A fabulous experience.
- Petter (10/5): Prisvärt boende med bra läge - Mycket tillmötesgående och lösningsorienterad personal. Läget är bra, bara ett kvarter från parken och ett fåtal in till centrum.
Det gemensamma köket var i mycket gott och rent skick. Totalt sett ett prisvärt boende.
- Veronica (8/5): - Nice room with comfy bed and lots of light. Pleasant shared spaces. Bathrooms could be cleaner.
- Sarah (8/5): - Comfortable stay.
- Beverly (10/5): - Clean, covenient location to city main square and train station
- TAEKYUN (6/5): 조금 아쉬운 호스텔 - I have stayed 3 days there. But I can't get towels 1 day more.
- Juan (10/5): - My stay was perfect and their communication was excellent! I have to praise the staff as well, they were very friendly.
- Alastair (8/5): - A nice little hostel just 5 minutes from the city centre.
The kitchen area with hot and cold drinks on tap was a nice touch. I had a private double room which was spacious and comfortable.
Very good value for money.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice, clean good service and cozy! Was only there for one night but if you are staying multiple nights maybe check if the room is next to the road bcs that's a bit noisy
- Cindy (10/5): - Nice stay in a convenient area to access the old town! Staff were very helpful. We had a private room, which was lovely and quiet (over a weekend). We did not use this, but they also offered complimentary tea, coffee, and light snacks on site.
- Hugo (10/5): - Nice and friendly vibe! Thanks a lot!
- Beverly (10/5): - Pleasant ambience. Convenient location great staff
- Naoto (10/5): - Location was convenient and the room was quiet. I hope to stay here again someday.
- Pamela (10/5): - Clean and quiet and staff were friendly. Great hot water in bathroom. Close to old town and attractions plus lots of eateries and bars. Would definitely stay again
- Pierre (8/5): Great place to stay! - The attention to detail to make your stay as pleasant as possible was evident and appreciated! The bed was very comfortable and the hostel itself was quiet. It was very walkable to upper and lower town as well as to the parks and the train station. We would stay here again!
- Jennifer Vania (8/5): Nice place and nice staff - Very well located, our room was very clean and comfortable, amenities on the hostel are nice, they offer free tea, coffee and drinks
The lady on the front desk was very nice and friendly, she gave us some recommendations for restaurants.
The hostel entrance is a little scary and not nice at all but once you are inside everything is good
- Joe (8/5): - Dots is a clean, well run hostel that is a fifteen minute walk from the bus station and about a fifteen minute walk to Lower Town providing a good base to explore Zagreb. It is also a few blocks to the Advent Zagreb festivals! Make sure to ask for a cappuccino in the morning since it is not self-service.
- shinji (10/5): - 清潔感のある施設でした。共有キッチンあり、机なども綺麗に並べられていました。
- Marcos (10/5): - Por ser um hostel cumpriu o prometido, atendimento bom, rápido e bem cordial.
- Carrie (10/5): Great location, Clean and Friendly Hosts - I loved my stay here and the owners were very friendly and helpful. The facilities are super clean and the common space is huge. It’s also two blocks away from the main tourist areas, so this location is so ideal.
Thank you so much for a lovely stay and I will definitely come back again next time I visit Zagreb.
- Calvin (10/5): - Awesome place for basic accommodation. My room was clean and spacious. The common area is comfortable with amenities. Staff super friendly and speak English. Only thing is the bed was a bit hard (I don’t mind but some might) and the street can be loud on a Friday night in Zagreb. Would stay again!
- Mariken (8/5): Goede centrale locatie, prima voorzieningen - Fijne, grote kamer, goede bedden, eigen douche en wc. Met de hoge temperaturen had een airconditioning lekker geweest, al was het met de ventilator, dichthouden vd luiken overdag en het openen van de ramen na zonsondergang te doen. Goede locatie, parkeerplaats dichtbij te vinden al was die duurder dan men bij het hostel dacht.
- Pete (10/5): What a find! Loved it!! - Amazing place to stay in downtown Zagreb. 5 mins walk to main tram line. Friendly & efficient checkin. Nice room that was quiet & comfortable despite the warm weather.
- Karen (8/5): - What a lovely place! A bit to quiet for my taste as guests aren’t interested in meeting, but that could just be todays traveller. Staff is friendly and helpful; rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable.
- Renaude (10/5): - Our hosts were super nice and helpful, and the hotel was perfectly located, we will happily come back!
- Peter (10/5): - Clean, friendly, charming and centrally located.
- Simren (10/5): Great stay - Location was great. Room was very clean and spacious. Common area was adorable. Highly recommend.
- Sophie (10/5): - Was upgraded because we were last check in! Wonderful room with good food around!
- Hayley Yvette (10/5): - Do not be fooled by the outside of the property which is awful, Once you enter the building, it is another story. The reception area is cheerful with lots of seating. The kitchen area has free tea and coffee all day, and tables to eat breakfast etc. The bedroom was very clean and the en-suite had a very powerful shower. The staff were very helpful and welcoming.
- Normand (10/5): Youth Hostel bien situé et très agréable - Notre chambre était grande et lumineuse. Matelas confortable, fauteuils (2) complémentaires.
Espaces communs agréables (fauteuils, salle à diner)
Situé à proximité du centre et des restaurants.
- Jenna (10/5): - Outside felt sketchy and the building smelled like cigarettes but I wasn’t too bothered by it, good neighborhood, clean inside, beautiful rooms and nice staff. Would stay again
- Sama (10/5): - Really nice people. It's clean and it smells clean too.
- Shahnaz (10/5): Fineste plassen i Zagreb! - Det var fantastisk vertskap! Rommene og hele innemiljøet var ny oppusset, modrne, funksjonell og koselig. Domo er en arbeidssom, flittig og veldig hyggelig manager og vertskap! Det frister til gjentagelse på samme plass!
- Jessica (10/5): Great location, clean, and comfortable - The Dots Hostel was perfect for us. A family of 5 we used the family room with private bathroom. Everything was spotless, beds were comfortable, place was quiet. There are lockable cabinets for each bed to secure your belongings. Nice common area and fantastic location. My kids liked it better than the hotel we used to stay at.
- andrei (10/5): Great stay in Zagreb - The hostel is well located, near a big park and the staff was very helpful and accommodating.
There is a tiny kitchen and also loads of information about Croatia's sightseeing in different languages.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Zagreb - Great place, close to the city, good price
- Anonymous (10/5): - I booked a private room and they allowed for early check in. Location is near to old town and 4 tram stops away from main bus station. Super clean and receptionist was so helpful and friendly.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - L'accueil, le petit-déjeuner, la décoration, la chambre ont été super !
- Hatem (10/5): Excellent ! - Excellent séjour ! Accueil souriant et aimable du personnel. Chambres propres, idéalement situé près du centre ville. J'y retournerai !
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Rent og fredlig hostel. Fin og nær beliggenhet. Koslig og god frokost.
- Penny (10/5): - Loved everything! Clean rooms and awesome service!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Pleasantly surprised upon our arrival, especially considering the grimy doors we had entered on the ground floor! Definitely a hostel, but had unexpected amenities like biscuits in our room and complimentary shampoo. Came across a couple of termites in our room, but what’re you gonna do? It’s an old building. We had a family suite with a private bathroom, which was bright and clean. The girl at the desk was very friendly and helpful. Mattresses are quite tired (could feel the bed frame underneath throughout the night), but this was a great fit for our family for a quick overnight in Zagreb.
- Tatsuko (10/5): スタッフさん親切 - スタッフさんも親切でとても良かった!
部屋も思ったよりも綺麗!
- Danielle (10/5): Muito confortável! - Confesso que me assustei um pouco quando vi a fachada do prédio, mas por dentro o hostel parece estar em um outro mundo. Muito bonito, limpo, confortável com um staff super simpático e quartos ótimos! Fica muito próximo do centro da cidade o que facilita o turismo. Recomendo muito!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great care is taken in every aspect of the hostel from the welcome to the helpfulness of staff, the decor, facilities and relaxed atmosphere. I'd highly recommend a stay here while in Zagreb. Hostel is convenient to the train and bus station and a short walk to the old city.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Recommend - Convenient clean place. Only issue is there being no plug socket next to the upper bunk.
- Aaron (10/5): - The place to stay in Zagreb.
- Katie (10/5): Would recommend to a friend! - Friendly service, well located, very clean, excellent Wi-Fi. We stayed in a private room with ensuite and it was everything we look for when traveling.
- Verified traveler (8/5): It's okay but... - The good: The room is big and clean. The bed is comfortable.The staff were ok. The cleaning lady is good. There is soap dish and shower caddy. That's really a big plus!
The bad: The bathroom stinks! It looks clean but it stinks so bad. Also, the toilet is not very convenient to use. It is very small and you have to squeeze your way in and out just to close and open the door. Really bad engineering. One time I took a shower before someone else and I had to endure cold water just to finish showering. The shower curtain smells like pee especially when it gets wet. It's really gross. It smells like cigarette smoke in the hallway sometimes, from another guest room, and from the front door when staff smokes outside but leaves the door open. 😷 Wifi only works in the lobby which is a bit inconvenient when you want to go online before going to bed. The lobby is ok except for the smell of smoke.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Clean and spacious room, friendly staff - Convenient location, 5 mins walk to the main square and easily accessible from the bus terminal, you can just take tram No.6 and walk 5 mins.
The room is spacious, clean and comfortable, even there are 3 bunk beds, but still you have your own space.
The reception staff are very friendly and informative, the lady helped me to find information to go to the Plitviice Lakes, and even helped me to book the bus ticket online, so I can go to the Lake on the 1st day of New Year. Great appreciation for her help.
- Bill (8/5): - Within walking distance of the main train station and the olt town, this hostel was perfect for what i was searching for. I had a private room. The shared bathrooms were clean. I would stay again. Note, its entrance is on a side door. That you will need to get buzzed in. Just find the dots button to ring for a buzz.
- Thilak (8/5): - Good
- Francesca (10/5): Lovely and spacious deluxe rooms - The deluxe room were simply perfect. Maybe a little bit warm but the air condition helped :) clean and very modern room. The entire hostel looks neat and comfy. Really close to the city center of Zagreb and to supermarket, bars etc
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very accommodating. I’m a guy and I didn’t realize it was all girls (<- very important to note) but they still found a place for me to stay. Very nice staff and very convenient location. Cheery decorations too.
- Aaron (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Zagreb - Near city center, walking distance to most point of interest. Staffs are very friendly. Room very clean and facilities is good. The breakfast provided is great. Overall very satisfied. Very recommended.
