Small, cramped Old Town hostel where guests gather in the common area each evening for locally made grappa.
Hostel & Rooms Ana is a small hostel at Kovačka 4 in the Old Town of Dubrovnik, in Croatia's Dubrovnik-Neretva region. Kovačka is one of the narrow lanes inside the city walls, within walking distance of the Stradun, the Old Port and the main squares. Being inside the walls means that sights, restaurants and the harbour boats are all close, and visitors need no transport for most of a stay. The hostel offers Dorm Beds at about €25 to €55 and Private Rooms at about €60 to €130 per night. Amenities are limited to wifi and a common area. Guests describe the hostel as small and cramped, and the evening highlight is the gathering in the common area, where locally made grappa is shared with guests. This gives the hostel a friendly, social atmosphere that suits solo backpackers, though light sleepers may find the closeness and Old Town noise tiring. There is no restaurant, kitchen or spa listed, so meals are taken in the Old Town's restaurants or from nearby bakeries and the morning market at Gundulić Square. The building is a historic stone house typical of the Old Town, with narrow stairs and no lift, and luggage must be carried by hand from the gates. The service is informal and hosted, and the prices are among the lowest available inside the walls. Summer is the busiest period, so beds should be reserved well ahead. Winter and shoulder seasons bring quieter lanes and lower rates, though some Old Town restaurants close during the coldest months.
