    The breakfast is not at the hostel. You are given a voucher to use at a restaurant and it only is available from 8 to 11am.I booked 3 nights with breakfast included. At the arrival I asked the receptionist if I could have a breakfast box because I was going on a tour and had to leave the hostel at 6:30am. The recepitionist forgot to ask. At te next night the girl told me that it would be possible to have the breakfast box but, at the restaurant they refused to give me because it was dinner time and not breakfast time and to ask for a refund at the hostel. Altought I have asked it at the arrival, and although the restaurant refused to give the breakfast box at the previous night, the hostel refused to refund me. The are lots of noise at the dorms and at the reception after 11 pm (time when lights are closed).

    The toillets were always very clean. It is 10 minutes walking distance from main attractions. The girl at the reception is very nice.

    There wasn’t much I didn’t like at all. For the price and the location is was fantastic!

    This hostel exceeded my expectations! As a 32 year old solo traveller I was hesitant to stay in a 20 dorm room but this was better and quieter than some of the 4 and 6 dorm rooms I’ve stayed in. The owner, Boris is super nice and incredibly helpful. He gave me some great pointers for local spots to visit. The rest of the team were also really lovely. Location was also perfect, really close to everything. Will be staying here next time I visit Split, Croatia!

    I nearly didn’t book this hostel because I was put off by some of the extremely rude replies to customer reviews by the owner. Don’t let this put you off! In reality, this is a friendly, well-run place to stay. The shared area is by far the smallest I’ve known of any hostel. It consists of a sofa and 3 seater breakfast bar in the reception area. This is also where there is a kettle and toaster on a work top. There is no kitchen/eating area and I did not feel able to make food / eat food anywhere at this hostel. Worth knowing if you’re on a budget!

    The location doesn’t get any better than this: on the edge of the old town: 5 mins walk to the sea; 2 mins to a supermarket and bakery. Dorms have a lot of beds, but were quiet when I stayed. Bunks are the type that have privacy curtains, chests on wheels with locks to store luggage etc in, a charging port and individual light - great! My mattress was comfy and linen nice and white and clean. Towel was included. The hostel is extremely clean. Dorms are cleaned daily. Aircon good. WiFi good. Women on reception are helpful and very friendly! Front door is locked and requires a code so it felt safe and I would happily have taken them up on the offer of storing my luggage there after checkout. 15% discount offer at local cafe was very appreciated!

    Would have liked a bit more space in the common room? It is very comfortable and has pretty much everything you need though and the sofa is comfy ^^

    Everything, the staff was welcoming, accommodating and excellent at their job, beds had curtains and everything you need, everything was clean, simple and efficient. As a woman I felt very safe, the staff has an eye on any unwelcome behavior.

    It was great having curtains on the beds for a little more privacy. The team there and vibe of the whole hostel was great. Having a smaller communal area meant we all spent time together. There was also complimentary tea, coffee and some shower supplies. Cleanest hostel I have stayed in!

    Nothing to add here, everything was rather positive or very positive.

    An overall great experience from the start, Boris and the rest of the staff are really helpful and kind. The beds have a perfect dark curtain that isolates you from the rest of the beds (it feels like you are alone there). The bathroom is fully equipped, even with hairdryer, you don't miss anything. The location is quite good as well, 5 min walking and you are in the harbour, and also close to a large variety of bars and restaurants. Highly recommended! Bonus point: if you have to take a bus later in the day, there is a place to leave your luggage so you can enjoy (as I did), your last day in Split without dragging the weight around.

    Nothing comes to mind

    If you’re travelling to Split then Gravitas Hostel is where you need to stay. From arriving on my first day to my last, Boris was accomodating, friendly and super helpful! The hostel itself is probably one of the cleanest I’ve seen and the dorms are great too. The beds are super comfy, have privacy curtains, a bed light & charging ports. Also you get a massive draw with a key to store all your luggage which is a massive bonus. Location wise, it’s perfect, 5 minute walk from all the hotspots in Split. I could not recommend this hostel enough, you can really tell how much care and love Boris puts into the place! 5 stars all round!

    Honestly, there was nothing to complain about. Everything was clean, organized, and exceeded expectations. If I had to nitpick, I’d say I wish I could have stayed longer!

    Gravitas Hostel was absolutely incredible! The space was spotless, stylish, and designed for comfort and privacy even in a shared setting. The beds were super cozy, with personal charging ports and curtains for added privacy. Boris was incredibly welcoming and helpful, always ready to give great recommendations for exploring Split. All the other travelers were extremely friendly. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the Old Town and all the main attractions.

    The room has many beds so i imagine in high season there will be a lot of snoring.

    Great place if you want to stay close to old town. Very modern and new. There's a very cheap restaurant nearby, called Index, and nice coffee places, even though expensive. A general suggestion to guests, if you're going to islands, check all timetables of all ferries before you start booking, a few islands are connected by ferry olny once a week. In this hostel we were told we can do island hopping, we booked the first one and went, only to find out the next planned ferry goes once a week, and we had to return to Split and missed out on Vis. So yes, the host gives great advice, but verify timetables yourself early.
