About

Backpackers fairytale exists already for 10 years. It's situated in a perfect spot, just 3 minutes from the 1700 year old Dioclation palace, near all the bars and restaurants, but it's still in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Place is clean and colorful with a nice, big common area where u can chill listening to an old record on a gramophone while enjoying one of the best views in the city. From our balconies you can see the whole city, the bell tower of St. Duje, port, cute park Sustipan and our amazing hill Marjan so u can enjoy this view from dawn to dusk.
My name is Antea and I opened the hostel because I wanted to travel the world, so I understand your needs and I will always try to help you and to make you feel like you are at home, so don't forget to ask whatever you need. We have a dog, her name is Tia and she is super nice and makes everyone thinking about their pets at home. We are always active, so if you like outdoor activity (slacklining, rock climbing, DWS, stand up paddle, trekking) maybe you are lucky and we are going to do something when you are with us, if we do you are more then welcome to join us.


We are located 10 min from the ferry, bus and train station.

staff were lovely, good location. near to no atmosphere in the hostel, 10 bed dorm felt very crammed, only 2 toilets and showers in the whole hostel. top floor apartment so not ideal for lots of bags, good price compared to others in split.
