Fiesta Siesta
Split Hostel Group’s brand-new outpost hostel bares another creative name with a similar definition; Fiesta Siesta. Also located in the old town, Fiesta Siesta has five large dorms and one double room. It is located in a heritage listed Dalmatian house and the modern interiors pay respect to that with exposed walls, hard wood flooring, and mosaic bathrooms. Just below the hostel is Charlie’s Bar, also managed by Split Hostel Group.
Charlie’s Bar is founded by Aussies, built by backpackers, and loved by locals. This is the inner city’s drinking hole where any goes; a melting pot of cultures where cheap drinks flow by the dozen…with a happy hour lasting five hours, there is no wonder why. Party peeps swarm to this joint, often inventing their own theme nights and drinks as the night unfolds and the awesome tunes animates the crowd.
