A former monastery of the 16th century, Hostel Marina is Cagliari's first hostel and member of the International Hostelling Network. Set in a pedestrian-only area, it is surrounded by restaurants and clubs. All rooms are en suite, and free Wi-Fi is available.

The reasons why I would personally recommend Hostel Marina to all backpackers travelling to Cagliari are threefold: First of all, the uttermost kindness and politeness of all the staff at the reception; Secondly, the utmost cleanliness, luminosity, and spaciousness of both the bedroom and all the common areas; Thirdly, the all-out convenience of the super centric location—smack dab right in the heart of Cagliari downtown, just a stone's throw away from all the fanciest restaurants and all the liveliest bars, pubs, and clubs!!! Last but not least, the unbeatable quality to price ratio! In one word: Top-notch!!!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    Great location, self check in was very smooth and convenient. We felt very safe walking the streets at night. We parked on Via Regina Elena (free), which was about a 5 minute walk away. Shower water pressure was excellent. Breakfast had a good selection of sweet items and tea/coffee/water facilities were appreciated.

    The room is cheap, has a great location, walking distance to the center and super close to the airport. It is quite well equipped and the communication with the owner was quick and easy.

    Loved it here at Metropolitan Rooms it was a pleasure to stay for 6 nights. The rooms are immaculate and cleaned daily. Great location to access the city. As a solo traveller I felt safe in the area on foot everyday/night exploring Cagliari.

    Great location (next to the central, restaurants). The cleaning lady was the nicest person we ever meet :) The apartment (first floor) was great. Clean and big enough for two people. Easy check-in. Altought the place is really close (like 2-5 min walk) to everything (Bastillion, restaurants, pharmacies, supermarket, fashion stores) the exact street is really quiet. And super safe neighbourhood!

    The room was exemptionaly clean and big in a safe environment, also the owner was super friendly and kind that respects his guests and their privacy! Freshly baked traditional breakfast, ideal to start a peaceful day in this historic city. Great location, 50m away from all the restaurants and 3min walk to train from airport.
