Located in the centre of Skopje, a 7-minute walk from the Macedonia Square, Shanti Hostel offers air-conditioned rooms and free Wi-Fi. Continental breakfast is served in the dining room each morning.

Rooms are cheerfully decorated and offer hardwood floors, lockers and safes. Some rooms offer a balcony and a view of the garden. Shared fully equipped kitchen is available for all guests. Tea and coffee making facilities are free of charge. Free public parking is also available.

Shanti is one of the best hostels I've stayed in. It's very relaxed and cozy, yet everything works well. The neighbourhood is very close to bus station which is a huge plus if you are doing lots of quick trips outside the capital. And, in itself, it is historical, worth taking a look at and non-touristy (lots of hostels, but thankfully no souvenir stands!). If you have to do some work during your stay, internet is reliable.

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.

    Goran went above and beyond to make our experience as good as it could be. He block booked the whole hostel and ensured it met our requirements as a large group of Scouts. Having stayed in a number, this is by far the best Hostel in Skopje. I'd certainly recommend it for groups. Great location, clean rooms and strong WiFi - the place was spot on!

    This is a budget hostel located in a single apartment on the top floor of a tenement house close to the center of Skopje. There are three rooms in this apartment, so be prepared to share the bathroom, kitchen and nice loggia with people from two other rooms. A very good place for a cheap, short stay (1-3 nights) in Skopje.

    The beds were comfortable depending what room and what bunk bed you got. My bed was fine. But I know some other rooms were not so good causing discomfort at night. The Hostel was great for socialising and meeting new people. Best on my journey so far and i had come through 8 other countries before ''GET INN HOSTEL'' If felt like a family. All together in the evening. Very sociable, unlike some hostels where most people are using it like an office, glued to their devices. I would stay again.

    In my opinion - the best hostel in Skopje, and I've been to all of the most popular of them. Staff is friendly and helpfull, location is excellent and I liked a simple solution for more privacy - curtains at the beds in dormitory rooms. Kitchen is well equipped.
