Hostel Marina is a great hostel in
Cagliari very well located in the heart of the City center, in a completely refurbished building. It's the first hostel of Cagliari and it's officially affiliated with the Hostelling International network.
Hostel Marina in Cagliari offers clean rooms all with private facilites, newly opened with a new management, max 10 minutes walk from the train station and less then 10 minutes you are in the old port of Cagliari.
The hostel Marina is located in the heart of the old town centre. Some monumental edifices surge in the vicinity among which the baroque churches of St. Anthony Abate and St. Rosalia, the Cathalan Gothic ones of St. Sepulchre and St. Eulalia and that of St. Augustine which constitute some of the rare examples of Renaissance architecture of the Island .
Next to the grey granite flight of steps leaning against the facade of the hostel, there are numerous old inns, family restaurants where the aroma of traditional dishes mingle with that of the sea.
The seaside railroad and bus stations are situated right beside the hostel, ideally located for every possible excursion in the hinterland to discover the remains of the Nuraghic civilization or indeed along the Gulf of the Angels and the ponds, oasis of red flamingo.
All public transports are really close, so you can reach the most beautiful beaches of South Sardinia.--- PLEASE NOTE ---

Once you have stayed 6 nights at a HI Hostel you become a HI member for one year, and no extra charges apply for future stays and remember that this Card could be used in 120 Hostels in Italy and in thousands of hostels around the world!!
