Empire Hostel

I slept so well here … the girl who greeted me was super helpful. The staff in the morning a little less helpful, they were new. Overall great Hostle and good location. Ticked all the boxes for a good hostel.

Les lieux sont petits sans beaucoup de possibiités, mais l'emplaçement est idéale et le rapport qualité prix est bon!

Dirty rooms

Mid hostel all round. When I arrived after an incredibly long journey there was no one at the desk so I had to go and find someone to help me, and I was met with a rude manner. The communal area is dark and there was no atmosphere. I enjoyed the pub crawl with the sister hostel but it cost €20 to join.

The Hostel is at a very good location, just 2 minutes from coastel area. The owner is also good and nice. The main problem is their cleanliness. I haven't seen someone cleaning the floor a single time. The floor was completely dirty. Although the toilets and Beds were clean. Overall a good location.

Localização excelente, próximo ao porto e ao ônibus, de frente para cidade velha, ao lado de supermercados! O lugar é pequeno, sem muita estrutura. A funcionária é bem bacana. As pessoas que estavam hospedadas eram legais. Pra passar 2 ou 3 noites, mais do que isso ja é necessário mais estrutura, organização e limpeza.

Kitchen was good and staff helpful but definitely party hostel. Security wasn't the best with the door left open at times.

Location is perfect and it is right by the stop for the buses to Graz and the airport and literally only 5 minutes walking from the old city. Curious amount of Koreans.

Empire was awesome!! The staff were amazing, so so good at their jobs and they had heaps of really good recommendations. It was so social and I met some of the best people there!! Highly highly recommend to anyone!

Beste Lage direkt an der Altstadt. Die Sauberkeit ist dafür eher mangelhaft.

Empire is great. Had a good time there. Facilities were clean and great staff. Location is good too. Maybe upgrade the bunkbeds. They make a lot of sound. There is a long-term resident (an older man) in my room who disrupted people during their sleep by constantly making noise getting on/off his bed.

It was one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in- staff were so so lucky, very social, really a good time.

I stayed at Empire Hostel from March 18 to 21 2026, and I highly recommend it. The hostel is conveniently located in the heart of the city, with easy access to major tourist attractions. If you’re traveling to Split and have a layover, Empire Hostel is a great place to stay. The staff are exceptionally friendly, and all of them speak English, making communication easy and comfortable.

Shout out to the big boss Ibo

Rarely you come across gem of a hostel when it comes to being perfect in every department. Kudos to Gytha and Aaron to keeping up with it. Definitely coming back here and highly recommended.

love the people

Wonderful! I had such a great time here, the staff were so fun, helpful, and friendly! Location couldn't be better, and I felt very comfortable the entire time. The kitchen is quite small, but has everything needed. The showers drained really slowly, but I find that to be a problem quite frequently in European hostels. My one critique would be the furniture in the common area wasn't comfortable, but that didn't stop people from gathering anyway. Would definitely recommend!

The staff and volunteers were very friendly. The location is prime, near the shops, markets and bus stop.

Het was een goed hostel. Alles was prima geregeld.
