Located in Ohrid, 1.3 km from Saraiste Beach, Golden Age Hostel provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Located around 1.7 km from Potpesh Beach, the hostel with free WiFi is also 1.7 km away from Labino Beach. The accommodation offers karaoke and a shared kitchen.

This hostel has a warm, family feel and is run by fantastic volunteers and a super friendly owner. The location is perfect and only a 5 minute walk to the center of town, yet quiet enough to be away from all the action. The rooms are spacious and the beds and mattresses are super comfy. A+++ for cleanliness and good job! I highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Ohrid and needs a comfortable, safe place to crash.

Set in Ohrid, 1.2 km from Saraiste Beach, Blue Lake hostel offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. The property is close to Icons Gallery, Holy Mary Perybleptos Church and Museum Robev House. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property.

For me, the quality of hostels is mostly about the overall atmosphere and personality of the owners. Nino and Vesna are a couple of very friendly, talkative, and helpful people. We were also lucky enough to spend some time with them with a glass of beer & wine. They put hard work in the hostel and make feel everyone welcome. Děkujeme moc, snad někdy příště!

Located in Ohrid, Sunset Lake hostel boasts a garden. This hostel offers a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. All rooms come with a balcony.

A continental breakfast is available each morning at the hostel.

Staying at Sunset Lake Hostel was amazing. The owner is amazing, and he really goes above and beyond for everyone. He is friendly and has so many tips on where to eat and hang out. The room was spacious and clean, as well as the bathroom. Breaky every morning of bread and jam was nice, and it was close to the center and the lake and the others like the fortress and many churches and mosques. I will def be back.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The best hostel we have ever stayed in! The private room + ensuite was comfortable and spacious. Good wifi. The share areas were easy to use and big enough for large groups. There were activities (free or very cheap) nearly every night. Micky was awesome, encouraging everyone to get involved in socialising. He made us feel very welcomed and gave us heaps of awesome recommendations. Thank you Micky!!

    Possibly the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Great security, clean facilities, and the most amazing staff. The kitchen has everything you could need and the atmosphere was just amazing for a backpacker. They run a sunset boat tour every two nights with included wine, so make sure to stay for more than one night!

    So many great facilities that every hostel should have. For example curtains on the bunk beds for privacy and a shelf to put your phone when it's charging. Great location and helpful owners.
