財産 — Split Old Town / City Square Hostel
This is a functional, budget-minded base in the heart of Diocletian's Palace. The lobby is cramped and the decor is hostel-grade mixed dorms and basic private rooms; you're paying for the location, not the furnishings. It suits backpackers or short-stay travellers who plan to spend most of their time outdoors, on day trips or exploring the old town.
Splitの歴史
Split grew up inside the retirement palace of Roman emperor Diocletian, built around 300 AD. After the palace was abandoned, locals moved into its abandoned halls and turned the corridors into a living city — a process that continued for 1,700 years. The medieval warren of narrow stone lanes, Venetian loggias and Roman columns coexists with a modern waterfront promenade. Today Split is Croatia's second city and the main hub for visitors heading to the islands or along the Dalmatian coast, balancing its ancient core with a buzzy café and nightlife scene.
訪れるのに最適な時間
Split完全ガイド →最高の月
September and October: sea still warm, crowds thin out, accommodation cheaper. May is also good — before the July–August peak, with long daylight and wildflowers on the nearby islands.
ピーク/フェスティバル Surge
July and August: the city is rammed with cruise-ship day-trippers, ferry passengers and festival-goers. The Ultra Europe electronic music festival (usually early July) and the Split Summer Festival (mid-July to mid-August) drive hotel prices to their yearly peak. A dorm bed in a central hostel can easily double in cost.
予算肩の季節
May and late September: you'll find 20–30% lower rates than August, still reliable sunshine, and streets that don't require queuing for a coffee. October is even cheaper but evenings get chilly.
天気&パッケージ
Split has a classic Mediterranean climate but the bura wind can suddenly drop the temperature by 10 °C, especially in the evening. Pack a light windproof jacket and one long-sleeved layer even for a July stay — and always carry a refillable water bottle, as public fountains are plentiful.
LIVE CITY BRIEFING — Split
- From June 2026, the new Split city bike-share scheme is expected to expand to the ferry port and Marjan hill, making it easier to cycle rather than rely on packed buses.
- The Riva promenade has just reopened after a three-month repaving project — expect smoother walking and more café terrace space, though the shade awnings are still temporary.
- Ultra Europe is scheduled for 10–12 July 2026, so the hostel will be fully booked weeks in advance and noise from party crowds in the old town can last until 3–4 am.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Split Old Town / City Square Hostel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a rear-facing room on floors 2-3. These are high enough to avoid street-level bustle but within easy reach by stairs if the lift is slow. The old town square at the front can be lively until late, so backing onto the quieter courtyard or side street gives you a better chance of sleep.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor front rooms facing the square — they cop the worst of pedestrian noise, bar chatter, and early-morning deliveries. Also skip the top floor if the building has no lift (common in old-town hostels): you'll lug bags up four flights with no help.
Best views
A front-facing room on floor 2 or 3 gives you a view of the square with its cathedral and bell tower, but trade off against noise. Side windows look onto narrow stone alleys — less spectacular but far calmer. No sea view from this location.
Quietest floors
Floors 2-3, assuming a typical 4-storey old town building. The middle is usually best: away from street clamour and roof-terrace activity.
🔊 Noise notes
Split's old town has pedestrian-only streets, so no cars, but the square is a hub for cafes, tour groups, and late-night revellers. Expect church bells every hour from the cathedral and amplified music during summer events. Deliveries to the street-side entrance start by 7am.
Insider tips
1) Check if reception can assign you a courtyard-facing room at check-in — it's not always bookable online but they often hold one for late requests. 2) The hostel doesn't have parking; use the 'Jadrolinija' ferry terminal car park (15-min walk) and drop bags first.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

お金 & 通貨
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATM withdrawals in the city centre for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the ferry port and airport—they charge high commissions and poor rates.
Contactless cards and mobile pay (Google Pay/Apple Pay) are widely accepted in cafes, restaurants, and shops; cash is still expected at some market stalls and small bakeries.
Rounding up the bill to the nearest euro is common in casual spots; in sit-down restaurants 10% for good service is normal; taxis and hotel staff appreciate small change but it's not mandatory.
食事、ショッピング、旅行 予算
Cheap car hire →A simple espresso or macchiato from a bakery or kiosk costs around €1.20; takeaway from a cafe is about €1.50–2.00.
A bakery burek (savoury pastry) or a slice of pizza from a takeaway costs €3–5; a daily set menu in a konoba (tavern) runs €8–10.
A main course of grilled fish or pasta in a standard konoba sets you back €12–16; a simple pizza margherita is around €8–10.
Look for bakeries (pekare) selling burek, fritule (doughnuts), and local pastries; the green market (Pazar) near the Old Town has cheap fruit, cheese, and olives.
Common budget supermarkets include Lidl, Konzum, and Plodine; they have decent local produce and basics.
The main shopping streets (like Marmontova) have international brands (Zara, H&M) at standard prices; the Poljud market (Saturdays) has second-hand clothes and local bargains.
A single bus ticket costs around €2, but a day pass for the city bus network (Promet Split) is €4.50 and good value. To get from the airport, take the shuttle bus (€5.50) or local bus 37 (€3.50) instead of taxis (€30+).
Buy fresh fruit and picnic supplies from the Pazar market, not the tourist stalls. Avoid eating or drinking on the Riva waterfront promenade—prices jump 30–50%. Fill a water bottle at public drinking fountains around the Old Town (free, safe tap water).
Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Split, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.

Splitのトップ観光スポット
💡 Bring a book or picnic from Pazar and sit on the far eastern end near the fish market, where locals outnumber tourists. Avoid paying 30 kuna for a coffee at front-row cafes—walk one street inland for half the price.
💡 Buy a bag of sour plums (višnje) and almonds for a cheap snack. Haggle only if buying in bulk—locals pay listed prices. Best visited before 11am when produce is freshest.
💡 Enter through the Bronze Gate from the waterfront for a dramatic view under the vaults. Go early (before 9am) to avoid crowds.
💡 Walk up the 500 steps from Sustipan for a quieter route than the main road. Take a swim at Kašjuni beach on the western side—free and less busy than Bačvice.
💡 From the fortress, walk downhill slightly to a restaurant above the quarry to see the dragon skulls left from filming. Take bus 22 from the main station (10 kuna).
