Cabbage Hostel: The Cleanest Hostel in Belgrade







Cabbage Hostel: The Cleanest Hostel in Belgrade


At Cabbage Hostel, cleanliness isn’t an afterthought - it’s one of our core values. We believe that a hostel can be affordable, social, and still spotlessly clean. Our guests often tell us they’re surprised at just how fresh and tidy our spaces are. And yes — we admit it — our obsession with hygiene has even earned us a few bad reviews from party-focused travelers who don’t appreciate our rules. But we’ll never compromise on our standards.


Our Cleaning Routine


  • Daily deep cleaning every evening of all bathrooms and the kitchen, including full sanitizing.
  • Regular checks throughout the day by our team and volunteers to tidy up and do touch-up cleanings whenever needed.
  • Floors vacuumed every 2nd day and wet cleaning twice a week for that just-cleaned feel.
  • Fridges deep cleaned every 2 weeks, so your food is always stored in a fresh space.
  • Steaming and top-quality cleaning supplies — we don’t cut corners or save money when it comes to hygiene.
  • Slippers provided and sanitized regularly, so you can enjoy comfort while keeping floors clean.


Why It Matters

Wearing slippers indoors keeps dirt and dust outside where it belongs, making shared spaces cleaner and cozier for everyone. We’ve also found that our focus on cleanliness naturally attracts guests who value tidiness, making for a more pleasant, respectful atmosphere in the hostel.

Comfort Meets Hygiene

From crisp bedding to fresh-smelling dorms, from spotless kitchens to sparkling bathrooms, we make sure every corner feels welcoming. You can enjoy your stay without worrying about hygiene — it’s already taken care of.
