The hostel is located in a former prison that was very nicely redecorated. The former cells now serve as guest rooms. The whole hostel is full of art, each cell was decorated by an artist. The atmosphere is great, breakfast is good, the rooms and the bathrooms are clean, and we heard a wonderful concert in the courtyard one night. more

I stayed at Hostel Celica, Ljubljana, back in May 2007 and remember it as one of the worst hostels, I've ever stayed in (and i've stayed in quite a few hostels all across Europe). I slept - or in fact I didn't sleep, as it was impossible - in a tiny, tiny (and very hot) room stuffed with around 12-15... more

This is a converted prison so as you would expect, the rooms(cells) are on the small side. The hostel is very trendy with interesting art work on the bedroom walls.I don't think all the rooms are decorated like this though.The facilities were very good and the hostel was very clean.However the room was unbearably hot in early June.The window only... more

Two adults (one very pregnant) and child, we booked by email but but were only told when we arrived that we would have to pay for the extra bed if we were to avoid another guest sharing our (tiny) room, so not as reasonable as we had thought. Basically just felt we were in the wrong place. The Metelkova Meste... more

Do the guied tour, i think it is every day arround 3 pm and do not stay more than one night. Is a little noisy, but don´t forget we are in a youth hostel. We´ve stayed there just for the experience. more

Fantastic time at this unique accommodation - location really useful for train and bus stations, but a little further from the old town centre. Having said that, it is superb value and highly recommended to anyone! more

My wife and I are in our mid 20's & decided to stay hear based on all the good reviews and the feature of being a former prison. However, it seems that this hostel has a problem deciding whether they should cater for hostel visitors or tourists. Firstly the breakfast is shocking. Don't bother. Also staff are lazy. We stayed... more
