Split Guesthouse will change the way you think about travelling. You expect a property but you arrive at a mate’s place. You expect a reception desk and you get greeted with a cup of coffee. You arrive alone but you go out with 14 friends. You book in for two nights and you stay two weeks. And that's just the beginning...

If you’re a sociable or a solo traveller and want to meet other people in a welcoming, friendly environment, please read on! Hostelworld guests rated us the most fun property the world in 2013!

Do you want to feel like you are staying at a mate's house, chilling on bean bags and drinking free tea and coffee until beer o'clock? Do you want to stay in a place that doesn't believe in hidden charges and wants to give you as much for free as possible? We’ve travelled widely and know what you want to feel comfortable.
There’s free padlock hire, free lockers, free use of our electronic staff safe, free Internet and Wi-Fi, free use of our Skype headsets, free towel hire and free tea and coffee – not just when you arrive, but all the time! And it’s not this European yellow label tea, either; You’re totally welcome to borrow our guidebooks for free and we have a book exchange as well.
Our top-floor apartment is newly renovated and we have added our personal touches.
Do you want to feel like you are staying in a social place not just a bed in a room? We've got free bed linen (who charges for that anyway?!), plus orthopedic mattresses and air conditioning.

We have a fully equipped kitchen for you to use, apart from the times when we are cooking up roast dinners, gypsy gulyas (goulash), breakfast of champions or whatever else we think the property needs to prepare for a good night out or to deal with a hangover!
There’s also, no curfew and very relaxed check-out times – you can check out any time you like but you can never leave! Laundry service is available and we use an electronic entry system with a keypad and cards.

Do you want to save money by taking staff recommendations for cheap places, and using the specially negotiated food and drink deals for you? Do you want to be given all the help, advice and assistance for your entire stay in Split and beyond if needs be? Do you want to be taken out by staff to cool underground places unseen on the common traveler's route? You’ve come to the right place!

Do you want to meet other similarly like-minded people in a lively and social atmosphere? Do you want to go out every night on pub crawls, karaoke nights, cheap drink nights?Do you want to be given a warm welcome and a detailed introduction of the city with all the hot spots for pubs, bars, restaurants, clubs and sightseeing? Do you want to be introduced to other guests so you can instantly make friends for your travels...if not life? Split Guesthouse ('seize the night', for those who rightly gave up Latin just after it died) is the perfect hangout and base for single travelers and young, sociable people who want to be part of an interactive and lively property experience as well as maximizing the city in the day time and seizing the night when the sightseeing has ended.

Sorry to inform you that from this year and due to certain events we have an age restriction for bookings. We accept bookings from guests under the age of 35 only. We are not super strict but just to let you know. Also, 24 check inn is cancelled so please follow the reception hours.

I had a great time staying at the Split Guesthouse and Hostel. The facilities had everything I needed and the air con was especially needed during the heatwave! Also, the staff were amazing and helpful - thank you to the person who does the laundry (I’m sorry I didn’t get your name) but your recommendations for places to eat were amazing!!

- Pretty secure with key entry for the hostel/room, although the door handle for our room was half hanging off. - Very small hostel with only 3 rooms - Cleanliness was a big issue in general. One of the bathrooms has a broken urinal (from other reviews has been broken for >2 months) which reeked of stale urine all through hostel. Always flies in kitchen or rubbish on table. - Private room does not have AC just a fan (gets very hot!) and no bedside tables - Does not look like photos anymore
