They were amazing! This hostel was definitely one of the best I've traveled so far. They are so sweet, kind, and generous. They even drew a map for me with a lot of very good recommendations for spending my time in Split. Also, they leave some little snacks in the bar that if you feel snacky, you can take and and the breakfast is amazing! Very complete with so many options that they even bake. Location wise is very close to the main city center area and the park so it's very convenient too. And the value for money exceeded my expectations!

Featuring a shared lounge, Gravitas Hostel is located in the centre of Split, 1.8 km from Bacvice Beach. The property is close to several well-known attractions, 600 metres from Gregory of Nin, 500 metres from People's Square - Pjaca and 1.6 km from Stadium Poljud. The property is non-smoking and is set 2.1 km from Ovcice Beach.

This hostel is the best, and I highly recommend it when travelling through Split or as a short-term home base. Boris takes a lot of pride in his hostel and it's easy to see why: the place is small enough to allow guests to get to know each other and get comfortable quickly (only two big rooms, approx 40 people total), is immaculately clean and has comfortable beds and spacious rooms, and is located just a few minutes walk from the old town. Boris and Nicole have been immensely helpful in organizing tours and giving recommendations for anything at all needed, going out of their way to help guests and really making the place feel like home. As listed online, there is no full kitchen, but there is still a big fridge, small oven, panini press, kettle and microwave that you can get very creative with to cook snacks and meals. Otherwise, you're a 30-second walk from a supermarket and many other restaurants and places to eat. During my week there, I heard repeatedly from new friends how great the vibe in the hostel was, which I would agree speaks volumes about the environment they have created at Gravitas. Highly recommend this place!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The people were very pleasant. Mostly backpackers. There is a central spot by the front entrance to hang out or meet people. I stayed in a 18-bed female-only and felt safe the whole time. Curtains are great for privacy.

    Great location, comfortable room but what really made my stay was Inchy and her son. They went above and beyond what I would have expected in providing local information and a safe, cheap early taxi on my departure. A home from home. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in split.....thank you for your kindness 💓

    Really great location and good price. It's a social hostel, which can be good or bad depending on your preferences, but expect people coming back from partying at evening/night, Split is a social and party city and you are in a youth hostel. They organize evening activities, I didn't had the chance to participate in any but it seems fun, pubcrawl, drinking games, etc, a great way to socialize and meet new people while traveling solo.

    The owner was really great. Freindly and very responsive tonally your needs. Next time I'll book directly through him. It would have been $100 cheaper. BOOKING charged $100 more for a 3 night stay. Other than that, the Hostels is in a safe neighborhood. Its clean and has all the amenities a hostel needs

    Chic and modern hostel in a convenient location to the city and the beach. The staff was friendly and other guests were respectful. The facilities and beds were clean. There is a restaurant downstairs. Overall, the best hostel I have ever stayed in! Recommend also for solo travellers because it felt safe.
