Warm welcome. Friendly people, always making sure your stay is easy and enjoyable. Good location, close to the city center. Nice lobby, functional rooms. Clean any time of the day... I definitely recommend it.

A really warm welcome and super clean rooms. For such a cheap hostel the quality is great. Nice common room downstairs. Great location to explore Zagreb on foot and close to the tram to get to the train station. Rooms were on the smaller side of things but still adequate. To be nit picky - the downstairs shower didn't work... More

This place has character, great location and cool vibe. The staff is friendly, very knowledgeable about the city and always ready to give recommendations and tips on where to go. The prices are more than reasonable.

Hobo Bear Hostel met and exceeded my expectations, with great staff, an amazing renovated cellar as the common room, and literally 5-minute distance to Ban Jelacic Square. The offerings were straightforward, rooms and utilities clean and well-tended, staff more than willing to help you with any and all inquiries. I recommend it in a heartbeat!

I heard great things about the Hobo Bear from my friends, so when I got around to travelling to Zagreb I decided to stay there and see whether the hype was true. Let me assure you it was. I've spent many a night of my 26-years in filthy, smelly and uncomfortable hostels throughout the world. I've also spend many a... More

HoBo Bear is great: a lot of character, the staff were really friendly, helped me find my way around, lent me an outlet adapter when I realized I forgot mine in Dubrovnik, and handed drinks to everyone hanging out in the living room late at night. The hostel was clean, but the downstairs bathroom could have been just a little... More

Everytime I come to Zagreb I go to Hobo Bear Hostel. The location is central. The Hostel staff is amazing. The owner Marko is fantastic. The Common room is cozy and fun. The dorms room are clean and the beds are sturdy. Free breakfast is a bonus. Check is out. It is will worth it.

First time i stayed at that hostel in 2009. It was my first trip to Croatia. I was really surprised how kind-hearted was the owner of the hostel. It has very relaxing and friendly atmosphere. You feel almost like home. About rooms: i stayed in a room with 2 beds and in a room with 8 beds. Both were clean... More

The hostel is a pretty nice place to stay. The rooms are clean, the staff is nice and can help you a lot. The only bad thing is that the common room closes at 12... So all people go upstairs to the kitchen which is next to the dorms.
