Hostel Angelina Old Town, Dubrovnik
Hostel Angelina Old Town offers a unique opportunity to stay within the heart of Dubrovnik’s UNESCO-protected historic center. The property is housed in a beautifully restored, 400-year-old stone building that captures the ancient soul of the city. While it provides modern comforts like air-conditioned rooms and a communal kitchen, you can still feel the weight of history in its thick stone walls and traditional shutters.
One of the highlights of this hostel is its charming rooftop terrace. It acts as an urban sanctuary, providing a rare and picturesque vantage point over the famous terracotta rooftops and the majestic city walls. It is the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or watch the sunset away from the bustling crowds below.
Its location is hard to beat; you are mere seconds from the iconic Stradun, the city’s main promenade. You can easily walk to major landmarks like Onofrio’s Fountain, the historic Franciscan Monastery, and the Rector’s Palace without ever leaving the medieval walls.
Being tucked into a stepped alleyway, the hostel feels like a local home base rather than a generic hotel. You can wake up early to explore the marble-paved streets before the day-trippers arrive or enjoy a late-night walk through the quiet, lantern-lit passages.
Whether you are looking to swim at the nearby Banje Beach, take the cable car up Mount Srđ, or simply soak in the atmosphere of the Old Port, everything is within an easy, walkable distance from your doorstep.
Expert reviews

Great hostel, awesome location, amazing staff
Staff: the person that received me was a little rude in the beginning, but at the end of my stay she was really nice to me. The person helping her (Zuzana) was super nice and everybody loved her. Later I've met Nico and he's absolutely amazing. He helped a lot of people during my stay. There was a tall blonde lady that was nice to the guests, but she was rude to the staff.
Cleaning: it was super clean. And they clean all the time. I was in a room with a few teenagers and they can make a mess. But the cleaning team would always do a great job.
Rooms: very good spacing. Locker are big, although a little narrow. The bed was confortable and there was 2 power outlets + individual bed lights.
Toilets: could be better, there was just 2 for men. The mictories were not working.
Showers: good space in the boxes and good water pressure.
Common areas: plenty of space, nice activities everyday.
Extra: the hostel offers tours.
- A little difficult to spot the correct entrance door from outside
- Not nice for someone of the staff to be rude with the other staff, specially in front of the guests.

Great Old Town location for one or two nights
Location was everything about this stay - right in the heart of the beautiful Old Town
Very poor facilities both in terms of condition and amount of space

The best location, really comfy beds, great staff the best hostel I've ever stayed in.
Close to centre
Excellent staff (nico)
Only one bathroom for a large amount of people in yhe adjacent rooms out of the main hostel

Sufficient for a short stay
The wifi worked well. A towel was provided. The kitchen facilities and fridge were good. I was allowed to choose which bed I wanted to have. The staff were friendly and welcoming. It was nice to have the staff member walk me to the building I was staying in or else I would have never found it. There was a WhatsApp chat with daily updates about activities in the hostel.
No curtains on beds and there are no sockets by the beds (mostly affects top bunks). There are several buildings to this hostel so if you want to socialise on the terrace you have to walk back to the main building which wasn’t far (7 min walk) but annoying if you want to quickly grab something from your room. You have to pay in cash upon arrival. The air conditioning unit was not suitable for the size and layout of the room. The one shower and one toilet were altogether in one bathroom which was shared amongst two bunk rooms (well over 10+ people).

Great location, friendly helpful staff, would recommend!
Absolutely perfect stay! exceeded all expectations. The room was spotless, and incredibly comfortable.
The location is ideal — peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and local attractions. The hosts were warm, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure I had everything we needed and knew where things were located.
Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, and all amenities were exactly as described (if not better!). I couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing and enjoyable experience. If you’re considering staying here — don’t hesitate. Will definitely be coming back!
Nothing to dislike

Too tight bed

I’ll be back
The front hosts were amazing and friendly - great information and tips
It was what you’d expect from a busy hostel. No bad things to note

The staff was super friendly, especially Juana! She went out of her way to help me book an extra night before check out
Its central property was perfect for touring the city! It was in the center of old town and super easy to get around
The bathrooms in the annex property had no where to hang your clothes or towels except a very small hook, your clothes were on the same door where you took a shower and just not any place to put your stuff.

Overall a good stay
The location was great, place was clean and tidy, they provide a towel which I didn’t expect, staffs were nice, and bed was comfortable.
One shower and toilet shared with 10 people, kitchen was very basic. No card, cash only which was a bit inconvenient, also they have seven different buildings for the hostel so you might not get to stay at the main one, but I still managed to meet people form different buildings.

Good location, small shower and noisy
The staff were very helpful and friendly and the room was clean. The location was amazing and in the middle of Old Town
The showers were very small and cramped. There was no room to put your clothes without them getting wet so you had to shower very carefully. Although the location was amazing, it wasn’t quiet so there was a lot of noise from outside coming in. The lock to the bedroom was a bit difficult to get into, it got to the point that you had to keep turning the key until it caught the lock and opened the door

Unbeatable location, Clean, and felt safe as a solo female traveler. Would 100% stay here again.
This was the cleanest hostel I've ever stayed in - rooms & bathrooms. Bathrooms were cleaned daily. All the staff were kind and helpful. I was staying in one of the annexed buildings, so it was a bit further into the old town, but it's all close together. The room had a lockable locker that I locked up my day backpack in with my devices + headphones, but I was never worried about anyone in my room bothering my things or stealing anything - everyone was incredibly kind and I made friends very quickly. Highly recommend as a solo female traveler, and I'd send my friends + family here as well. They have daily activities at the main building + a WhatsApp chat. The stairs are not that big of a deal!
Housekeeping took my one bath towel off my bed, so I had to go to the main building to get another one. I also wasn't allowed to move beds in between when a new group came in, so my bed ended up being in the middle of a group of friends during the second half of my stay. Neither of these things was a big deal, but just something to note!

Great for party souls and solo travelers
Located in the heart of old town, amazing interior and modern bathrooms.
If you are looking for a calm hostel and silence at night, then it’s not the place for you.Its very noisy at night due to the parties in the town.

Nice hostel overall would stay again if in the area. Very social at night and clean. Overall good vibes
Right in the center of the old town. Perfect location. Staff were so nice and let you leave your bags after checkout which is nice.
No curtain on the bed.

Good location, average stay
Location is prefect!
Receptionist is helpfull.
Owner of this object, should invest money in some sotwares and daily paper stationary for reception. They took a photo of my passport, because they do not have a proper softwares and equipment for reception. This is against GDPR policies!!!!
Towels in my private room had some stains and hair.
I have booked private room in separate building. There was a lot of noise, but due to some guests.

Really lovely staff, great guest, excellent balcony and superb location.
Clean, great lockers, excellent location, great kitchen,lots of toilets and showers, bunk beds were solid and did not squeak.
The price when I booked was much less than I was asked to pay at the property.

Nice well located hostel
The hostel was very conveniently located in the center of the old city. The main location of the hostel does not have the view in the pictures but I preferred it because I didn't have to climb stairs. The facilities were cleaned constantly.
In the bathrooms they don't have enough hooks and shelves to hold your things while showering. Also if you forget to remove something from the stall, when they clean the stall they'll throw it away.

Can’t be more centric!
Very nice hostel in old town Dubrovnik. You cannot find better location that this one.
Don’t forget to bring the earplugs, all the bars and restaurants and just there so you will obviously hear the noise. But with the earplugs, you are good. The beds are very good, I would say they have new mattresses are new. I would definitely come back

Good value and location
In a secondary building a few minutes away from the main building without kitchen or terrace, but still really good location. Room was nice, people were nice, bathrooms were nice.

Great for fun and social people!
This is a lively and social hostel which i highly recommend esp for solo travellers. I've met a lot of great people and became friends with them. The hostel's group chat is fantastic! You can join, invite or organise activities and exchange infos with other guests. You'd never get bored in this hostel!
The annex bldg is quite hard to find. I've lost my way many times.🤣 But aside from the 2 unruly french guys who were in our room for a night, everything's fine and the annex is a little bit quiet than the main one. And it's closer to the cliff diving spots.

Its a best place to stay and explore the old town during night. You can have best picture no tourist on background.
Heart of old of town
Overpriced

The location is great. I felt like in an exotic movie living my life loving, eating 'n grateful
The owner, he is very warm and polite and welcoming. Then the rest of the staff was nice. Romi a very welcoming person in the hostel. Thank you for making my stay nice and introducing me to new friends. The silence policy after 10 is great. People take it. I had a great safe time and drank and lived and walked.
The lockers in bedroom sound a lot, at night make a lot of noise.

Nice but overpriced due to location.
It's also quite a social hostel with plenty of activities going on and opportunities to meet people.
They also have a lot of volunteer staff so they're often helpful and fun and will be in social activities with you.
There was also no curtains in the bedrooms which honestly isn't the end of the world for me but I know a lot of people don't like no curtains.
The furniture in the second building's lobby area was all still wrapped as well - I'm assuming this area will be done up for next years season, but for the price of 50Euros per night it's pretty steep.
