Denise and I stayed in the one en-suite room, right by the front door. I'll try to only put in stuff you won't find elsewhere! There is a lock up for skis. Parking is ample as most of guests are back-pack types in the spacious bunk rooms upstairs. Noise was not a problem. Breakfast is cheap and cheerful, make it... more

I stayed here back in Jan of 09' for a week. Although you have to run around the cold stairway to get around, since there are only so many rooms per floor, it has an elegant interior. Great size dorm rooms, and very helpful staff made this place worth the while - not to forget to mention they have private... more

We had reservations when we got there but reception could not find them. When they finally did, we went to town and upon our return there were people occuying our beds and closet. Hostel was full, without enough food for breakfast and few bathing water. We were bitten by insects the only night we stayed there. The town is fantastic... more

Walking into Stara Polana is like walking into a wonderful, cosy little bit of Narnia! Low lights, the smell of wood-smoke, and everything rustic and wooden. We shared an 8-bed dorm, which is never great, but we paid £6.50 each a night, the beds were lovely and clean (and ready made) there was a big locker, wi-fi and a computer,... more

We booked Stara Polana through Hostelbookers.com basically because our first choice of hostel had to cancel our booking, Luckily we got a room at Stara Polana with breakfast and it was cheaper than our first choice. Stara is a traditional chalet building, with a hallway, lounge, reception with free internet, smoking room and a large kitchen. When we got into... more

I found this hostel in hostelbookers.com site. There is a photo about twin room but the hostel has only one room like that. If you book a room more than 1 nights, you won't be sure you will be stay at the same room every night - this information is missing from all advertisements. We stayed there 3 nights in... more

My partner and I stayed at Stara Polana for 7 nights for a Ski-ing/Snowboarding trip. It was cheap so we weren't expecting it to be spectacular but it was absolutely fine for our needs. We were given one of the rooms at the top of the building with an ensuite shower room. There were a few flights of stairs to... more
