About

Hostel Spinut - Split

Hostel Spinut sits in a quiet part of Split, about a 15-minute walk from the old town and a short stroll from the marina and Marjan Hill. The setting is leafy rather than central, which suits travellers who prefer a peaceful base after a day of sightseeing.

The hostel keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi throughout, a terrace and garden, a TV lounge, billiard tables, and a snack bar. Rooms come with basics like a shower and some open onto balconies. Staff earn consistent praise for being accommodating and helpful.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Not in the thick of the old town — While a 10-minute bus or 15-minute walk gets you to the centre, the hostel is away from the main tourist hub—a quieter trade-off that may not suit everyone.
  • Mixed dining experience — Breakfast gets described as 'simple yet satisfying' or 'great', but the Dining category scores only 7.9, so expectations should be adjusted.
  • Rooms are basic — The Superior Twin Room lists only a shower as an amenity, and reviews mention 'basics'—so don't expect luxury extras, just the essentials.
