How to Reach Hostel Downtown Inn
Step-by-step arrival directions from Belgrade Airport, the main bus station, and Prokop, plus practical notes guests usually need before check-in.
Hostel Downtown Inn
Koče Popovića 6, Belgrade
From Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG)
These are the easiest ways to reach the hostel from the airport.
By A1 Shuttle (Recommended)
Take the A1 airport shuttle toward Slavija. The ticket is bought from the driver in cash (RSD). If the bus stops at Savski Trg / Palace of Justice, get off there and walk about 5 to 8 minutes to the hostel. If it continues to Slavija, take a short taxi ride or a free city line back toward Savski Trg.
By Bus 72
Take bus 72 to its final stop, Zeleni Venac. From the market area, walk downhill toward Branko’s Bridge, turn left into Gavrila Principa, and then take the third street on your right: Koče Popovića.
By Taxi
Do not take a taxi directly from drivers waiting inside the terminal. Go to the Taxi Info desk, give them our address, and ask for a fixed-price voucher. The ride should be around RSD 3,000, or roughly EUR 25.
From the Main Bus Station (BAS - New Belgrade)
The main Belgrade bus station is now in New Belgrade, so it is no longer a short walk from the hostel.
By Taxi (Simplest with Luggage)
Give the driver our address: Koče Popovića 6, Savski Venac. The ride is usually around 10 to 15 minutes, depending on traffic.
By Public Transport
From the BAS / Novi Beograd station area, use a city line toward Savski Trg, Zeleni Venac, or Branko’s Bridge, then walk 5 to 10 minutes to Koče Popovića 6. City public transport is free, but route apps are still useful because lines can change.
From the Main Railway Station (Beograd Centar / Prokop)
Most domestic and international trains now arrive at Prokop, which is slightly outside the city center.
By Public Transport
Take bus 36 from the station and get off at Savski Trg, the old railway station area. From there, the hostel is a short walk away.
By Taxi
A taxi ride from Prokop usually takes around 10 minutes and costs about RSD 800 to 1,200, depending on traffic.
Useful Tips for Arrival
