Which area of Pula is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking affordable accommodation in Pula, the city centre and areas slightly outside the main tourist hub offer the best value. These locations provide easy access to attractions and transport without the premium often associated with beachfront properties.

The immediate city centre, particularly around the historic Forum and the pedestrianised streets, features a good selection of guesthouses, hostels, and smaller hotels that are often more affordable than larger resorts.

Public transport links are also excellent from the centre, making it easy to explore further afield.

Alternatively, consider areas just beyond the bustling core, such as those near the Pula market or the bus station.
