Opening again after COVID-19

Dear guests,

From 16th of March 2020 our hostel is being closed due to the goverment measures against Covid-19.

The good news is that from the end of April Slovenia has started slowly mitigate the restrictive measures.

  • For now it is allowed to cross municipal boundaries.. It means that travelling through the whole country is allowed.
  • Museums and outdoor terraces of restaraunts have been opened.
  • Navigation on the Soca and Koritnica rivers is allowed again.
  • From 11 of May public transport between cities starts working again.
  • And it is expected that from 12.05.2020 it will be allowed to be opened for small accommodations (up to 30 rooms), camps, restaurants.
    So  we hope that from 12.05.2020 Hostel Kobarid will be able to open its doors for guests.
    Lets keep fingers crossed :).

    Please follow our news.

Hostelworld Award 2020

Great quality Score of 9.9 as a Top performer was recieved by our hostel at website Hostelworld. 
Thank you very much for wonderful feedbacks! We are glad we are doing a great job!

Here are some of reviews.

Hands down the best, most impressive hostel I’ve ever enjoyed! I would return to Kobarid, even travel out of my way to return to Kobarid, just for this hostel. The hosts/owners are amazing, friendly, and spirited. They seem truly happy to host people in their place and share their experiences in the Julian Alps with visitors. We visited in mid December, so the town was sleepy and outdoor sports weren’t really happening, but in the right season, the host can take you paragliding. Sport paradise!

These rooms are the best!!! They are huge. The beds are really good, sturdy and long enough for tall people. The kitchen has everything you need. The hostel is close to the bus stop and the Soča river.

Happy birthday, Hostel Kobarid

This week our hostel had a birthday – 2 years since we opened!

We are counting down exactly from June 13, when the first guests from Booking.com arrived to us.

The first online booking with a guest arrival 2 hours later sparked excitement. Have we all been cleaned, tidied up, checked? Of course!

We were inspired, dressed up, lined up in front of the door to meet the guests with all friends who at that time stayed with us.

The guests were a couple from America. The first thing we said to them was: “Hello! You are our first guests! Welcome!”

The guys didn’t believe us. It seemed to them that the hostel with the name “Kobarid” had existed for many, many years!

First tour of the guest house, first check-in and a great feeling of happiness that we did it – after 1.5 years of construction work, we opened!

Since then, more than 2 thousand guests from all over the world have visited our hostel, including guests from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina, Egypt, Ecuador, the Philippines, Iceland, Japan, Colombia, Malaysia, Monaco, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Saudi Arabia , Singapore, Venezuela, Costa Rica.

Now, in coronavirus times, we expect the world to learn to live with it, and people will be able to travel freely again.

We adore our hostel, we spend the maximum amount of time in it, constantly improving it. Two years later, it has become even more beautiful and cozy!

We express our deep gratitude to all the people who participated in the creation of the hostel! Our hostel remembers so many beautiful faces, golden hands, kind hearts and cool stories!

We are waiting for everyone to visit!

Happy birthday, adorable Hostel Kobarid!
