The Zagreb city centre youth hostel on Petrinjska Street is undergoing a massive redevelopment to cater for the growing numbers of young people heading to Croatia.

The multi-million euro investment will see the number of bedrooms decrease from 210 to 170, but the extra space will mean every room will have its own bathroom, or will only share it with one other room.

The existing six-bed rooms are being converted to offer either four, three or two beds.

The new-look hostel, due to open in September, will also offer three rooms for disabled guests, a restaurant, internet bar and an art gallery.
