The 49 best hostels in Barcelona

Kabul was amazing. It was a perfect location, I felt safe, and it was very clean. Everyone there was so nice and I had such a blast. The activities were super fun. This was my first hostel experience and I have no complaints! I will most definitely be coming back! (Shout out to Aina, Lana, and Gabriel, they are some awesome people!)

I booked just 2 nights at Kabul but I ended up extending to 5 because I was having such a great time! The atmosphere is super friendly and fun. Greta, Lara, and Samuele from the bar make every night unforgettable — great energy, great people. Lucas’ activities and magic tricks were an absolute highlight! Huge thanks as well to Mechi and Lander from the reception for their amazing recommendations and for helping with all the little everyday things. Easily one of the best hostel experiences I’ve had — can’t wait to come back!

Lara is the greatest bartender I have ever had at any hostel. The friendly atmosphere combined with quality service and great drinks really made this night unforgettable. I made so many friends and I’ve really enjoyed my time so far at Kabul hostel. I cannot recommend it enough. Having people like Lara and Sam to bring the vibes and create a great environment for new connections from people all over the world is an energy you don’t find often, and I’m very pleased I was able to find it. I suggest you come here if you can, and indulge in the lively atmosphere, great drinks, and impeccable location for exploring Barcelona.

Me and two of my friends booked a 3 nights stay for a short bachelor’s trip in Barcelona. It was a great experience staying here. If you’re looking for a place which guarantees social interactions, partying and other activities, this is a good choice. But forget that you’ll sleep well 🤣 because the Plaça is busy and noisy till like 4am or just carry ear plugs. The walking tours and hostel parties were awesome, although pub crawling has room for improvement. The services are otherwise worth the price and the staff is very friendly and hospitable

I had such an amazing time at Kabul Party Hostel! The energy of the place in unreal, always something fun happening and great people to meet. A huge shoutout to Mechi and Lander for making stay amazing! They’re both so friendly, full of good vibes and really know how to make everyone feel welcome❤️ Thank you for all laughs and memories! ❤️

Had an amazing stay at Kabul! The staff were super friendly, and the rooms were kept very clean with regular cleaning. Met lots of kind and social people, which made the experience even better. The rooftop is a huge bonus for relaxing or meeting others, and the events they organize are definitely worth checking out. Would gladly stay here again!

Love this place and staff!! The location is super convenient if you're looking for walkable access to everything including trains, the main shopping district and Palau Güell. The staff are super friendly and accommodating, they also have handy luggage storage. Stairs at the entrance but if you have the option to leave your luggage on the street with a fellow traveller, head upstairs and they will get the elevator working for you.

Great city centre location. All rooms have full length privacy curtains on the bed and a plug socket with a light. Free welcome drink from booking directly with them which was a nice confidence boost to attend the free social events the hostel puts on each night. Fabulously cheap bar downstairs too and a reasonable check out time. Kitchen facilities all work well too.

O stayed for 3 nights here. The rooms and the bathrooms were clean. For the price it is amazing. They have free events that help you meet fellow travellers and everyday I met someone new interesting. Great experience overall. Would recommend it to anyone going to Barcelona

I stayed in an eight-bed room for two nights. The bed was clean, and the cleanliness of the shower and toilet was also fairly good. There was a power outlet and a small shelf by the bed, as well as a curtain. There are large drawers under the bunk beds; I brought my own padlock, but I believe the reception also provides them for a fee, though I’m not entirely sure. Its location in Plaça de Catalunya was a big advantage. I would definitely choose this place again if I visit Barcelona in the future.

How a hostel should be like! Despite being relatively huge, it still doesn’t fell anonymous. The bar connected to it definitely helps. A lot of (free) activities from the hostel so it’s easy to get in touch with other travelers. Overall very clean! Beds were comfy. At some levels you can’t open the windows, for safety reasons I assume? But the AC works perfectly. Location is also perfect. The Plaça de Catalunya is literally around the corner and a metro and bus station is also not to far away.

This is a great hostel! Super secure and some of the dorms have an outdoor balcony. There is also a secured place to store your luggage 6€ for 24 hours.There is a meeting every night at 8 pm in the adjoining Belushi bar and our host Evginiya was wonderful. She gave us free sangria and information on the local area Front desk people are helpful. The only complaint is that the cleaning crew is quite loud in the morning. This hostel is more expensive than most hostels I've stayed at and they will charge an extra fee of taxes etc upon check in. Towels are a fee and they also sell outlet adapters cheaper than outside. There's so much happening here, I will definitely visit again when I'm in Barcelona!

Sofia was hands down the best guide I’ve had during my 5-week trip across Europe. In just a short time, she managed to show us the very best of Barcelona – from iconic sights to hidden local gems I would’ve never found on my own. Her passion for the city, deep knowledge, and warm personality made the experience unforgettable. She truly made my brief stay in Barcelona one of the highlights of my entire trip!

Great location in the heart of Barcelona. Rooms are clean considering how big the hostel is (I think 400+ beds). Average age of guests appeared to be ~30 but I saw a real range. While the front desk staff was pleasant, an overnight shift janitor/housekeeper stole my AirPods during my visit and brought them back to his home, approximately 30 km north of the city. I was able to monitor their location all throughout the day (and on their commute back to work at the hostel). I tend to think that the only reason I got them back was because it warned the janitor that I could track them, and that they are so old that they have no resale value. I expressed this to the front desk and they didn’t really acknowledge the fact that this worker is a thief, nor did they raise the issue with management!

Yeah Hostel is simply one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, social, and fun, without ever feeling overwhelming. The staff are not only friendly but genuinely go out of their way to help with tips, recommendations, or just a good laugh at the reception. Beds super comfortable, and the lockers are big enough for all your stuff. The bathrooms are always clean and well kept — something you don’t find everywhere. What makes this place stand out; perfect location in nice vibrant neighborhood, though, is the atmosphere: communal dinners that turn into easy conversations with people from all over the world, fun bar nights, and walking tours that show you Barcelona beyond the tourist spots. It’s social if you want it to be, but also chill enough if you just want to rest. Location is another big plus — you’re in a safe, central area with easy access to public transport, great restaurants, and some of the city’s highlights. If you’re heading to Barcelona and want a mix of comfort, cleanliness, and that true backpacker community vibe, Yeah Hostel is the place. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back!

Great hostel for many reasons. Easy to meet people. Lots of added extras like the community dinners and walking tours. Room itself (I have a 4 bed female only dorm room) felt peaceful and private. Bathroom was clean and spacious. Each bed had a curtain. Big drawer for all your stuff and 2 places to lock stuff away. The walking tours were fantastic, Pablo and Mario are excellent guides. Tip based so you can decide how much the tour was worth. The dinner was €12 which is excellent value for money. 3 courses and a drink, and the food was great. 100% recommend this hostel. Will return.

The hostel has an excellent location. Right down in downtown Barcelona. A couple of block from passeig de gracia, 10 minutes to the sagrada familia. Buses and metro also pretty close. The hostel itself is clean, comfortable and quiet at night. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm. Each bed with own light, plug for your charger and own curtain.. so it made it more private. The room had a shower and a toilet inside, which makes it pretty nice. Comfy beds and great ac and powerful hot showers. They offer free walking tours, family dinners, pub crawls and breakfast for a fee. Dinner and breakfast looked good (I didn't eat there though). The only thing I didn't like much it was the guys at the front desk. When I check in they weren't that nice, wouldn't help much with the check in process (they tell you to scan a qr code and do it yourself), they weren't that interactive with the guests.

One of the greatest hostels I’ve ever stayed at. Great facilities, a very big locker that fit my two backpacks, plus a plug and curtains for each bed and a small 2nd locker. Perfect location, you can walk everywhere, and the neighborhood is nice. They also have dinners every night and free walking tours. The only thing I’d mention is that the staff could be a bit more welcoming. they weren’t rude, just not particularly warm or engaging. As a solo female traveler I felt safe and it was a overall good stay

Good hostel with modern facilities, and I had an overall positive experience during my 6-night stay. The place is clean, stylish, and well-located. However, a few things could be improved. For the price, a towel and shampoo should really be included — these feel like basic amenities. Also, although they state that sheets are changed every 5 nights, mine were never changed.

Amazing experience! Everyone was really friendly and nice. Easy to get involved and make friends yet the rooms were also quiet. Amazing air conditioning system as well. Plenty of places to get food in the area and do laundry. Very close to the subway which is clean and easy to use also! The under bed storage is huge and easily fit my full size suitcase and backpack.

It's a mid-size hostel, maybe 100 people. Everything's been really clean, the rooms are modern with curtains and ensuite bathrooms. Staff is nice and was quick to fix things. The breakfast and dinner is awesome, the activities help make friends and explore the city.

My daughters stayed in this hostel for a week in august in a 6-person girl dorm. Its a great place to meet people, they have pub crawls every night (although half of the places they take them to aren't great), a nice kitchen when you don't feel like eating out, pool is smaller than in the pictures but still refreshing, relatively clean, great location and friendly staff. Downpoints would be the absence of curtains between the beds, the main light in the room not turning off until 11 pm, balconies closing near 9 pm and not being able to control the air-conditioning. They loved their stay and met some pretty great people!

Loved staying at this hostel on our recent trip to Barcelona. It had everything we needed. The rooms (6 bed) were spacious , bright and clean. It even had a balcony to hangout on. Even though it seems like a party hostel we (34F, 32M) never found it loud or rowdy. The showers and bathrooms were cleaned every day too. There was a strange smell in the women's , but assumed it was just the pipes or something. Nothing unbearable. The rooftop deck and pool were AMAZING after long hot days. Pleasantly surprised! And not busy while we were there. The kitchen area was kept clean and the nightly meals were 100 % worth it! Delicious. Lastly, the activities planned by the hostel was a lovely touch - haven't experienced that in other places . We could only make it out to the pub crawl, but the staff would also recommend places to go as well. 10/10 would stay again (my husband has stayed in many hostels in Europe and he said this was the best!) thank you for the great time!!!

Is was by far one of the worst hostel experiences I’ve had. Our confirmed booking was cancelled at 1:30 AM the morning of our arrival with no warning at all. We didn’t find out until we arrived later that day, expecting a place to stay. Instead of helping, the staff made the situation worse. We were told we probably wouldn’t find another place to stay on such short notice even though we already had a confirmed booking with them and paid in full; which they had cancelled without telling us. The irony was unbelievable. We had to speak to three different workers, and one of them literally walked out on us mid-conversation. No one took responsibility, and we waited over an hour in the lobby just to get any answers. For a hostel dealing with international travelers, their lack of professionalism, empathy, and basic communication was completely unacceptable. The booking platform eventually stepped in and helped, but the way the hostel handled everything was chaotic and dismissive. I would absolutely not recommend staying here and recommend elsewhere. The hostel we did end up finding after 3 hours was so much better than what we could have imagined. The staff at St Christopher’s Inn Barcelona was so welcoming and the location of this hostel was actually really amazing with the location to the airport shuttle, transport, and we walked to everything we could have needed in the city.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely the Best Hostel Experience! Sant Jordi Hostel has honestly been the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel completely at home — so warm, welcoming, and full of good vibes. A special shoutout to Bambu, who always created such a fun and friendly atmosphere in the evenings before the free disco nights — those were unforgettable! The hostel itself is super clean, safe, and social. I loved hanging out on the balcony, which was the perfect spot to relax and meet other travelers. They also organized tons of activities, which made it so easy to connect with people and make new friends. If you’re looking for a place with amazing staff, great energy, and the perfect mix of fun and comfort — Sant Jordi Hostel is the one. I can’t wait to come back!

Honestly the best in the city. The vibe is amazing, super clean, and the staff are very friendly, cheerful, and always ready to help. There’s a fully equipped kitchen downstairs with a big fridge where you can store your food, plus all the cooking tools you need. What makes it even more special is the daily activities, both in the morning and at night — a perfect way to meet people, make new friends, and enjoy the social atmosphere. Overall, a truly excellent place. Highly recommended!

Went to barcelona for a weekend with my friends. We stayed the 6 of us in a room and it was great. The hostel organizes daily activities such as dinner with night club entries that are very cheap for the whole activity (<10€). The people that were staying in the hostel were friendly and we could talk and have fun together in the common areas. We made some new friends and definitely will come back!

I stayed for 3 nights and I had a blast! Special thanks to Antonio who was there in the morning to help me during breakfast time! Everyone at the recepción was just the best! Will be back in Barcelona soon!

Room was very clean, the hostel is very social and fun. Daniela the receptionist is very nice, she will take care of anything you need help with and has very helpful suggestions if you are new to the city. Overall it was an amazing experience with perfect customer service. Highly recommend if you travel solo or with friends

My stay at Mediterranean Hostel was amazing! The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly — I met great people. Everything was clean and well taken care of. A special thanks to Daniela, who was incredibly kind and always ready to give helpful tips and recommendations for the city. You can really feel that the team cares about their guests and puts heart into what they do. I will definitely come back — highly recommended for anyone visiting Barcelona! 🌞🇪🇸

Its an amazing hostel, when you enter you get a warm welcome the staff that show you around. The rooms are clean and well organized. The location is ideal for people who like a mix of everything the city has the offer and the metro is very close. But the best part are the night activities, Daniela and Fernando are very nice people that will show you how to party the best in barcelona. They are very social and will dance harder than everyone, and will show you the best of Barcelona while they are always open for a chat. Would definitely recommend!

Good location and the staffs are great and friendly. However, the quality of facilities totally not worth the price. The shower water temperature kept fluctuating between hot and cold, and the charging outlet at my bed was blocked by the adjacent bed, so I couldn’t use it at all—I had to charge my phone in the common area instead. Aside from these issues, everything else was fine. I spoke to the reception about the water temperature problem, and it seems other guests have complained about it as well, but it still hasn’t been resolved.

The hostel was GREAT!!! I was here for 8 nights and it was 🔥🔥🔥 They also have an amazing cook making us paella and pasta. 2 minutes walk from the metro station too!!! I'll definitely come here again!!! And GREAT thanks to Daniela who allowed me to have such a wonderful experience!

I have stayed here for 4 nights and I really liked it here, It is one of my best hostels all over the world. The staff is more than nice and kind. Definitely I recommend it

Very great experience. The hosts were lovely. Search foe Daniella if you want to fall in love with Barca nightlife she is a true hero. Very friendly hosts, flexible, and understandable. I came as a stranger, left as a friend. Would definitely recommend to anyone...

I stayed for just one night when passing through Barcelona but I can definitely recommend this place. I was in the room 205 for females with 6 beds. Everything was clean, the room was quiet, bed was alright. There is a locker in the room to store your things (fits a small backpack) and there's some space in the room for your luggage as well. You can leave your things in a storage room the next day if you want to explore the city. The staff is very friendly! I immediately felt welcomed and safe. It's a hostel and not a 5-star hotel so bear that in mind. But overall, I'd say you get great service for the price. There's also a big shared space where you can work if needed or just chill and you can cook in a big kitchen.

I spent a few days at this hostel in Barcelona and overall had a pleasant stay. However, there are a few points worth mentioning – both positive aspects and areas where there’s some room for improvement. Starting with the things the hostel can control: It was a bit disruptive that new guests sometimes received their hostel introduction directly inside the dorm room late at night – occasionally as late as 3 a.m. It would be preferable if the staff could handle these explanations at a quieter time or outside the sleeping areas. The key card system also had its quirks: I had to get my card reprogrammed several times because either the locker or the room door wouldn’t work – though occasionally both did, just not reliably. In addition, the bed creaked noticeably with every movement, which affected sleep comfort a bit. Some other inconveniences were beyond the hostel’s control. One morning there was no electricity in the bathroom, and on another day, the hot water stopped working. These issues seem to stem from the age of the building and can happen occasionally, without being the hostel’s fault. On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and genuinely tried to make guests feel comfortable. The lady serving breakfast was especially kind and attentive. Cleanliness was consistently good – despite visible signs of wear, I never felt uncomfortable. The beds were, aside from the creaking, quite comfortable, and the price for food was fair: breakfast and dinner aren’t included but cost around €7–8, which is very reasonable. All in all, it was a pleasant stay with a few minor issues that didn’t significantly affect the overall experience. If you’re looking for a clean, friendly, and centrally located hostel and can take small technical quirks with a sense of humor, this is a solid choice.

Nice and affordable hostel close to the Sagrada Família. The staff are very friendly, especially the blonde French guy at the check-in desk. He was polite, super helpful and made everything go smoothly. As I’ve noticed, he speaks three languages. Quite impressive. The place was clean, and on the second floor I could smell a familiar disinfectant, which made me feel confident that they take hygiene seriously. The only thing I didn’t like was the air conditioning set to cooling mode. I froze while sleeping! It’s October 31st - November 1st, we need heating, not cooling, lol. Additional useful information and details: There is a €10 deposit that you must pay, which is refundable. In addition, a tourist tax of €5.50 per day should be paid upon check-in. The bathroom is divided into two separate areas, one with a shower and the other with a toilet. Wi-Fi internet is available. The reception is open 24/7. Check-out is until 11:00 a.m., and check-in is between 2:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.

Stayed here august 2022 with a friend group for our Barcelona trip. My first time staying at a hostel. Met many new cool people. Staff was great and helpful. Rooms were good, but they couldn’t put us all together.

I was given an upper bed directly in front of the air conditioner, and it was impossible to sleep all night it felt like sleeping in a freezer. I even had to move to the common area in the morning to rest. Honestly, those beds should not be rented out unless it’s clearly indicated. Apart from this issue, the place itself was fine and the rest of the experience was okay.

I can't stand it. I stayed here for four nights, but it was noisy every night. Its geographical location is very good, but the room is too noisy. I'm here to rest, not to listen to everyone's noise. can't fall asleep at 2 p.m.

Cramped small rooms. Other guests here are quite rude and take more care to keep their things organised, they are all bags all over the room, it's very 'teenager' hostel vibes. They pillows are so flat, and they won't give you a second one. Kitchen is good. Breakfast is ok, the fruit is just whole apples and oranges. No coffee machine, just pretty awful tasting filter coffee. They lock the terrace at 9pm, that's not their fault as their is rooms that adjoin it and then people couldn't sleep. But makes it difficult to have an outdoor hang out spot in the evening. Good lockers that work with a keycard. The showers are dirty a d they don't even give you proper space to to put your things so your struggling with a bag hanging off a hook, this is so annoying. The staff are generally nice. Overall it's a mixed bag but I would not stay here again, too noisy and overpriced.

You can connect easily from the hostel and meet an amazing backpacking people from all around the world. I had really good experience in this hostel with friends, who I met here. I would love to book this hostel again when I come back Barcelona!

I can definitely recommend this already highly recommended hostel! • Great location • Friendly staff • All the rooms, toilets and common areas we're better then expected and very clean & tidy. • Had some good organised group activities. • The other people staying there were polite and respectful.

Great hostel! I had a really comfy stay, staff was always super helpful and friendly, the entire place is kept very clean. They also facilitate enough activities to create a nice community. The location is also prime. 100% I would stay here again when in Barcelona. 👍🏼👍🏼

Lovely little hostel, I was there on a visit to Barcelona at the start of October. The staff were very helpful, very sociable and friendly. The whole vibe was very laid back (broccoli is ok if respectable and considerate). The location was very good, in the gothic quarter so the architecture was both beautiful and interesting. It’s right next to a beautiful cathedral and is close to the busier parts of the city for nightlife (about a 10-15 minute walk from la ramblas). It really is a very comfy, welcoming hostel and it really made my trip to Barcelona special. I would definitely stay again when I return to the city. Really couldn’t complain for the price, the hospitality was fantastic and hats off to staff.

Everything was perfectly fine — a quiet, peaceful hostel in the heart of the old town. Excellent service, well-equipped kitchen, and each guest gets their own locker with a key (large enough to fit a suitcase and a backpack).

I loved Itaca hostel! The location is very central. I was in Barcelona during some festivals and there were parades on the street that you could see from the balcony. Such a great chill but social vibe. It was clean and the staff were very friendly. Easy to make friends as well.

Extremely Disappointed by the Poor Staff Behavior and Unclean Facilities. I had high hopes for this hostel, but my experience was deeply disappointing. From the moment I arrived, things felt off. The entrance door says “push,” but it doesn’t actually open unless someone lets you in from the inside—confusing and not welcoming. The most troubling part of my stay was the staff’s attitude, especially the overnight employee. On September 17 around 3 AM, I went to the kitchen—which I was told is open 24 hours—to quietly make myself a cup of coffee. I barely touched the machine when a tall, light-skinned man working the night shift appeared and began reprimanding me for “making noise.” His tone was rude and aggressive, and he spent over five minutes lecturing me—ironically making far more noise than I ever did. This interaction left me feeling disrespected and singled out. I don’t like to bring race into things, but I couldn’t help noticing that my group was the only Black guests there, and I did not see other guests being treated this way. It’s hard not to feel that we were treated differently. To make matters worse, the bathroom was not clean, which added to the overall discomfort of the stay. Staff should be trained not only in basic hospitality but also in how to treat all guests with dignity and respect. I was prepared to give this place 3 stars, but after this experience, I can’t give more than 1—if that. Respect and cleanliness are the bare minimum, and unfortunately, this hostel failed on both fronts.

I stayed at Onefam Ramblas, and unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. The cleanliness was poor. The shower had black mold and lacked any locks. The beds were in bad condition, with bent curtain rods and sheets that were only barely acceptable. Overall, the facilities felt very run down and are in serious need of renovation. The kitchen and common areas were also not well maintained, making it difficult to enjoy the hostel atmosphere. The only positive aspect was that a few staff members were friendly, but this did not compensate for the lack of basic standards in the hostel itself. Overall, this place needs a significant uplift to meet even the minimum expectations.

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at!! They make you feel like family, and have lot of fun daytime and nighttime events going on. The workers and volunteers are so much fun and make sure you have a great experience. I would recommend anyone to stay!!

I had the best time here at Onefam Ramblas! They create a safe environment for solo travels to meet and socialize with an amazing community. I feel lucky to have found this hostel. It truly is a special place with special people

You can’t ask for a better experience. Hands down the best bunch of people and hosts. Much more than a hostel and truly like a family. Made so many friends here, hope I get to meet them again at some point of time. Plus they also have free dinner and other socialising activities to get to know everyone.🍻

best hostel we’ve stayed in so far!! staff are incredible, they create a great atmosphere for making friends. included tours, activities and yummy home-cooked dinners. we will definitely come back!!

My stay at Onefam Ramblas was amazing I could not have asked for a better experience for my first hostel! Everybody was so friendly and welcoming, it was super easy to make friends and everything is super clean!! Bella one of the volunteer hosts was absolutely amazing! She answered all my questions and was so much fun along with all the other amazing volunteers and staff!!!

Would not recommend unless you are there to party! We had a full itinerary planned of exploring the city and had to do so on barely any sleep. We stayed three nights and all were very disrupted. Disappointed as the reviews were so amazing and it wasn’t that cheap! The staff were very friendly though and if you’re there to party and meet people I’m sure the hostel events would be great.

Pretty thoughtful design for the bathroom. Towel and lock are not for free. Bed has curtains but you do have to make your own bed which is definitely not preferable after a long day of traveling. Family dinner available for £3 (never tried) and they have bike rental. Bathroom can be a little tight in the morning. Pretty close to bus stations and 10min walk from Barcelona north where you can take buses to other cities. 7-15min walk from different metro stations

I have always had a negative attitude towards hostels, but my experience at Bed&Bike changed my attitude. It was a great experience. The hostel has a cozy homely atmosphere. Modern with a thematic component. I really liked the neat design. Friendly residents. The administrators are very polite and always ready to help and provide all the necessary information. There is a large kitchen that can be used for proper nutrition. The bathroom is also fine, although there are sometimes problems with the pressure. In addition to paying for accommodation, you need to pay a tourist tax (a few euros per person per day). Towel rental is also paid separately. If you want to protect yourself and lock your things, then this is also paid separately. It is great that you can leave your things in a storage room and it is free. I was also pleased with the location. A few minutes walk to the metro, and 10 minutes walk to the Sagrada Familia. In general, I highly recommend this hostel for those who want to have a good time in the city.

Perfectly located next to a metro stop with great cafes & restaurants a step away, Bed & Bike was a dream hostel - especially for the price. This place was extremely clean and well-maintained with a lovely supportive staff, and had a diverse group of travelers - all different ages, races, ethnicities, languages spoken, etc.. Also very safe as a female solo traveler. Green flags all around; I’d totally stay here again. And again.

First experience in a hostel so nothing to compare to, but completely happy and will hope to stay again. May-June 2024 I stayed for 4 nights, in town for the Primavera Sound festival. Staff were welcoming and polite, always greeted on every entrance and exit with a smile. They helped with my locker which was mildly jammed, and any other queries. Offered directions and suggestions. Rooms were as clean as I'd expect, shower and bathroom shared but no issues. Tours were offered relatively cheaply, and the family dinner at 8:30pm was very welcoming, hosted by volunteers.

Bed & Bike Barcelona is a clean, modern, and friendly hostel located in the heart of Barcelona. The staff are incredibly helpful, and the atmosphere is welcoming—perfect for solo travelers. it easy to meet new people. Rooms and facilities are well-maintained, though it can get a bit noisy at night. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re looking for a social and comfortable experience near top attractions like Sagrada Familia. Highly recommended

I had a good stay at the hostel. The The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the place itself looked modern and well-designed. A couple of things could be improved: the sink in the bathroom had an automatic shut-off, which was quite annoying. It kept turning off after just a few seconds, and it's not clear why — this isn’t a public restroom. On top of that, there was no hot water at the sink. Also, the soap dispenser in the shower was empty, which was a bit disappointing. Aside from these issues, everything else was great and I appreciated the overall experience.

Great location, quite clean throughout. Crisp, fresh bed linen (although you have to make your own bed?!). Friendly welcome. Big lockers for luggage (bring a lock). Lamp, power oulet & USB at the bed & curtains for privacy. Great communal kitchen & cosy vibe. But left after the first night anyway due to loud sleeping conditions. In all fairness I am a light sleeper tho but had very good earplugs. I can only comment on room H5 and would avoid it. Right next to the bathroom and even with earplugs you hear everything. The H5 door of the room scraps loud & long on the floor when opening - such an easy & must thing to fix. The metal bunkbed made squeaky noises at each turn of my neighbour. I lay awake for hours and at 4am decided to leave. Also it got very hot in the room, there was an air con but we didn’t switch it on. I liked the hostel, sleeping was too noisy for me.

Small room, the neighborhood dirty and sticky, the girl showers can be seen from the corridor and need to make sure the door is closed, I heard the people from other floor walking in my room, the beds are not separated so when someone move in the night all the beds are moving😥 The doors slam and it's shaking all the bed.. The bracelet system is comfortable and the team is helpfull and friendly If you looking to party with young maybe this is the place for you

Great hostel to stay at! Facilities are clean and definitely are not bad. Feels a bit like a prison if I am completely honest, there’s no privacy screens for the bunks.

What I liked : The room was clean. The building is secure. We rented a private room just to sleep in, and it did the job. In the shared kitchen, there’s a Brita filter in the sink to fill up our drinking water bottle. There’s a room to store luggage if we don’t have access to our room yet, and it’s locked. The common area is comfortable and welcoming. I didn’t like : I was already expecting it, but just know that the room is small. There were renovations/repairs/work that started one morning and were very noisy. One of the receptionists was cold and abrupt.

Great hostel with great people. Lots of amenities and space. So happy I stayed here while in Barcelona! Close to Mont Juic and the beach, as well as great restaurants/bars and grocery stores. Easy to get on the metro to go into the city center areas as well. The dorms are cleaned daily and you are given your sheets upon arrival. Each bunk has a mini shelf, light, outlet, and usb port. You get a good sized locker that fit my 35L backpack, as well as there being room under the beds for storage. Your key is a fob, attached to a bracelet. It gets you in the front door, unlocks your room, and your locker. I really liked this style of key for a hostel! Made it very convenient and never felt like I lost it. They do a free pasta night every Tuesday, give out free shots most nights, pub crawl every night, and lots of other events. Great kitchen with large fridge space, stove, toaster, kettle, microwave.

Overall it was fine but the people staying there were terrible. Also the front desk staff did nothing and didn’t care when I advised them about someone in my room doing disgusting inappropriate things while we were all in bed. Loud, dirty and not for anyone 35+ for sure. Hostel vibes ok, prob not that easy to meet others.

Lovely place, nice people from all over the world. Very good location and easy to make new connections! When I come back, I will definetly go there again!! Special thanks to Dayana, very sympathatic and helpfull at the reception and Marie was super friendly at the Bar!!

Pretty good. It's near a supermarket. At night it may be a little sketchy around the corner but the hostel itsself is a cheap alternative, you can meet people there easily. It has a kitchen area. Its good enough

I really enjoyed my stay at the place. I stayed for 10 days (solo trip) and it was the perfect place to stay. The bed were really comfortable, receptionists were all really helpful. It's near diagonal (metro station) from which you can go to most places really easily.

My first experience staying at a hostel was beyond all expectations. The staff were incredibly kind and professional from the very beginning, always ready to help and give recommendations about the city. The hostel was spotless, from the rooms to the common areas, which immediately made me feel safe and comfortable. What impressed me the most was the atmosphere – everything felt relaxed and friendly, and the people I met there were amazingly open and welcoming. I truly felt that this is a place where it’s easy to connect with others and feel at home, even if you’re traveling alone. The location of the hostel is fantastic – everything is literally within reach: from the metro station, to shops and restaurants, and even the main attractions which are quick and easy to visit. This made my stay even more enjoyable and convenient. The price compared to the quality is more than fair. I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone planning to visit Barcelona – whether you’re traveling alone or with friends. I will definitely come back here on my next visit to the city.

Only stayed here 1 night but would’ve stayed a whole week if they weren’t booked out. The coziest hostel I stayed in Barcelona. The staff are extremely kind and friendly, have great recommendations and make the place feel very welcoming. The shared spaces are the most comfortable I’ve come across in all my travels across Asia and Europe, with a comfy and spacious living room and large terrace with many different kinds of seating in both. The activities are a real standout, with something on every night but not all centred around drinking/partying. People here are very laid back and kind. The rooms (I stayed in a 6 bed female dorm) are a bit small but the beds are comfortable and have privacy curtains. The bathroom facilities are spacious & cleaned daily. The kitchen is small but mighty and well equipped. Felt so at home here, recommend!

location is perfect. The neighborhood has a diversity of restaurants and bakeries, as well as small fashion stores and the usual big ones. There’s an ecological supermarket beside the place that was really nice for morning breakfast. The casa Batilo and pedrera very near. Overall feels very safe. Is also walking distance from Gracia. I met some people at the hostel and we went to party at Gracia festival and had tons of fun. Some of the furniture is a bit warned off, for instance, the bench in the bathroom the entrance door of the bathroom could be replaced on some areas. Need some paint due to scratches. But nothing terribly bad. The terrace and living room is huge. Also, it is well organized. Cleaning staff are lovely and helpful. Some music in the bathroom would make it less awkward and the design could be better since the main door allows to be seen from the hallway. Nothing huge but makes it more comfortable. On the rooms: mattress and pillow were OK. The room number one has a balcony towards the street. It was perfect to open the window door in the morning and let the room air. The lockers are good. They sell locks for six euros and rent the big towel for two. The Aircon in room number one is new and it was very nice to have a cold room. The cleaning staff is constantly cleaning all day. There is a handicap bathroom that is very big and kept clean. If you’re a big size body, the showers are very very small so I would say use the accessibility bathroom instead. For those with claustrophobia this place is great is only the second floor, all locks are outside the door frame and space wise it doesn’t feel crowded. My only bad points about this place is the fact that I couldn’t book a female only room and I had a room with men in which some guy snored super loud and there was a fight at 2 AM between an old man in his 50s and a young French guy in different languages. Although it was very entertaining, I couldn’t sleep well and it made me appreciate safe Female spaces. I’m a woman and I speak Spanish and almost 40. So take this with a pinch of salt. Sidenote on this business model : six people sleeping for €60 each night for a total €360 per night. This is better than having a luxury hotel. This is why the broken furniture and chairs should be replaced because we are paying 5 star hotel prices. I hope the staff is getting paid well.

Great location, plenty of restaurants and aupermarkets at walking distance and relatively close to main tourist sites. The staff is very friendly and helpful. As a whole, the Gracia neighborhood is very nice.

The staff was wonderful. Super welcoming and accommodating. It's a 2 minute walk to metro. Plus right in between the two best streets in Barcelona. Just don't eat at the cafe directly outside the entrance to the left. I walked without the metro to sagrada familia, Gothic quarter, Picasso museum. Some might have been a bit far but worth it to see more of the city. The bathrooms were clean. The Terrance was awesome. They have laundry facilities there that work fine. The beds are good, clean, and have curtains. Only complaint would be the light from top bunk shines down wall into bottom bunk (attached pic). Problem if they get back from a late night. And they turned the AC off and opened the windows the last night. That made the room really stuffy. Other than that this place was excellent. Would stay again 10/10

10/10 Loved this hostel. One of the best I’ve stayed in. The staff is fantastic. They are kind, fun, and knowledgeable. They gave me awesome recommendations not only within the city but other towns to visit nearby…and helped me with the trains. The common areas are lovely. Perfect place to relax on a sunny day. The breakfast was great, the bed was comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, and the shower water pressure was strong and hot. Thanks for a wonderful stay. I’ll be back.

The hostel is a quiet place. It doesn't have the energy of youth ready to party. The staff were nice young girls. But they were not upbeat. They kept the place clean and we're courteous. It is not a modern place. Bathrooms are like an old house.

10/10points for location, safety, cleanliness, breakfast and atmosphere. Carol is very helpful. It's small hostel no chaos at all like other big hostels.

Location is great! However, I got some bug bites after one hour lying on the bed. Pharmacist said that it’s a bedbug bites. I wasn’t sure before, so I just requested to change the bed. They changed me to an upper bed and it was no problem after. But, I already got bitten so;;

Super cool place loved the terrace and the view from the room. the beds were comfy but the bunks did shake when you moved

Wow! Just had a great and amazing experience. The food was good and the place is so clean and huge. It was a great stay and the price is also not that expensive. The owner is so sweet and understanding. They will help you all the time. Huge rooms and the washrooms are also neat. I would def visit again when I come to Barca again.

Racist receptionist from Brasil (girl). Equally as annoying and racist receptionist, Rafael from Brasil. who has been working illegaly for 4 years in this same place. Hotel managed by a slumlord. Congratulations Barcelona you finally achieved your 4th world utopia by importing these people.

Lovely place adapt for both short and longer stayings. The staff is extremely cordial and the enviroment is generally really tranquil. The rooms are comfy and clean and there's plenty of space in the living rooms and in the terrace. The position is optimal: many bars and restaurants around and close to metro stations.

Really great hostel, ideally located and within walking distance of so much. Patrick is very friendly and hospitable, couldn't ask for more!

I didn't even stay at the accommodation because I saw too late that they don't accept people over 47 in a room with four beds - later I saw they also state that they don't accept people over 45, and in the third place it says that they don't accept people over 50. Very frivolous and unprofessional, both because it's not consistent and because it's not highlighted properly. I contacted them at 7am on the day of arrival to say that I only saw their rule (about age) afterwards and that I urgently looked for something else while there were any offers. Their response came almost 30 hours later (!) were they wrote that I should have come and they would make a compromise and because I didn't show up they canceled my stay for whole 6 days! what right do you have to cancel the accommodation without any refund?? Well, I could have invited someone younger to stay at your accommodation that I paid for!!! Not only did you cancel, but you also rented out the time slot that I paid for, you should really be ashamed of yourself.

First hostel experience and would definitely go back! Room was very basic as expected but spotless and great location if you're spending all day out. Not many rooms so luckily it's quiet. Patrick the host was very friendly and always helpful answering any questions.

An absolute gem of a hostel - cosy, quiet, comfortable, and well-located. It's also SPOTLESS - one of the cleanest hostels I've ever stayed in. We stayed in the 4-bed dorm and it was a lovely base for us in Barcelona. Patrick was lovely and helpful. Would absolutely be back next time I'm in town.

I had a fantastic time in Barcelona and this Hostel supported my experience! The location is great although slightly tricky to find lol. The hostel is smaller than expected from the photos but means it's lowkey. The cleanliness is above average. Patrick is a sweet guy and went above and beyond to make mine and my mums experience wonderful. We stayed in a private room and my mum surprisingly loved it! Thank you! Remember, you will have to pay tourist tax. We stayed 3 nights and paid around 24.00 euros.

Loved this hostel. It was very clean, with relatively big rooms and shared bathrooms. There was no breakfast included, but a kitchen was available to cook meals. Coffee and tea was free. Washing service was available, a bit expensive but very good. The WiFi worked really well. Nice common room and terrace. Staff was very friendly and could give directions and tips about good restaurants and how to get around to avoid big crowds and waiting in lines at tourist attractions. Location was perfect, walking distance to most attractions. It was a very pleasant stay.

It was so nice to be here! Excellent people whose working in. I recommande hugely! Vincent

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! When we arrived our room looked nothing like the photos. On our first night the air conditioning was broken, something the staff had been made aware of but had told us they’d fixed it, they had not. This led to a night of no sleep as our room was well over 30 degrees and we were given duvets not sheets. We had been put in top bunks and one of them was very flimsy and unsafe, making it very hard to climb in and out of. The following day, we went to reception and informed them of the issue again and they said they would move us to a new room because the air conditioning was broken. In our new room, the plug socket was broken as well as the lock on our under-bed storage, which is unacceptable considering we had no way of storing our valuables. We had paid for a female only room and on our last night a man started unpacking his stuff into our from. We proceeded to go down to reception and query this, as a female dorm costs extra. After half an hour of discussions at reception the man was finally moved into his correct room. On our way back up to our room, we overheard the man being offered compensation for his troubles of moving rooms - this is not something we had been offered despite the abundance of issues we incurred during our stay here. Despite all of this we would like to thank Raul, a member of the bar team who managed to make our stay slightly better. We attended his Sangria workshop twice and he offered great insight and enthusiasm making this a very enjoyable experience.

I had a single room rather than a multi-occupancy room. This is a fantastic location and provides easy access to most everything you would want to see. The staff was amazingly friendly as well. If you are visiting Barcelona, this is a place to strongly consider staying. Easy access to Sagrada Familia, Casa Batllo, and the gothic quarter as well as easy access to several subways stations on a number of different lines. This is the place to stay for a tourist who needs a central base for their planned excursions.

Good value hostel from a well-known chain. Beds/bunks have no curtains, but it is not a problem if you are not sensitive. En-suite toilet and shower is great, but if you are noise-sensitive, it is not a problem. Lockers are located at the bottom of the bunks, which is fine if you are not sensitive. Giuliana help me through check-in and she granted my request for a bottom bunk, which is much appreciated. You may have to walk a bit to reach the nearest metro or bus stops. I think, however, that the hotel management should remind guests about how to manage expectations in a hostel, as there was a guest who was very sensitive to noise and would make a fuss if someone is opening the lockers at 8pm or snoring at 7am. The guest even took a picture of another person without permission, and was staring at the snoring person on the top bunk. Quite antisocial behaviour, but not the hostel’s fault. An explanation of what to expect in a hostel would be good at check-in as this is a shared room.

Very nice rooms. Staff was very accommodating and nice. Food and drink were great, highly recommend the bar. Giovanni Jose was very accommodating and helped me out a ton, relieving a lot of stress I had about being in a Spanish speaking country.

I came home from a late night out and the three lovely gentlemen named Giovanni, Jao and Mark were so willing to help us. They fed us their homemade pizza served with tender loving care. Shout out to these baddies xoxo

Im a frequent traveler and have stayed in hundreds of hostels all over the world, and never have I seen an employee like Jero. He’s the ultimate go getter and definitely one of the main reasons my stay in Barcelona has been so fun and outstanding. Someone give this guy a raise ASAP!

Giovanni and Joao are the most wonderful front desk people I have ever met. They provided incredible service and were so welcoming. Will definitely be coming back. #nasty19

Facilities: 4 stars. Convenient location of hostel to bus station, beaches and main tourist areas. Bathrooms and showers are small, not much places to hang your stuff in the showers. I’ve stayed at all 3 black swan locations (Barcelona, Granada, and Sevilla), this one is the least spacious/oddest layout. service: 5 stars!! Staff is very friendly, the organized activities and family dinners are offered nightly which helps you connect with the staff and other travelers. Highlight of the stay was an organized beach day, shout out to Brecken and Helin!

I stayed 2 nights in the largest mixed room for 72 euros in total. The room was large and clean, and the beds were in good condition. There's a free meal every evening, which is quite basic (pasta with vegetables), but it brings the hostel guests together and makes it so enjoyable. The hostel has a great atmosphere, and I've met really nice people. The staff is also very friendly, and the very day there is a fun activity outside the hostel. There's also a predrink every evening for people who want to party. The location is perfect in the city center. For solo travelers, I prefer a smaller hostel like Black Swan with fewer guests, because larger hostels like Kabul Party Hostel (also visited) attract larger groups of friends, making it harder to connect, while that was very easy at Black Swan. In my opinion, it's excellent value for money!

The place is clean, comfortable, with many places to sit outside the room. The rooms are big enough, each bed have a locker that is large and fits whatever you could bring. What makes the hostel stand out is the social vibe! They offer daily free tours and vists, free dinner, and experience the night life as a group every day. I got to know amazing people from the hostel, and i would love to come back.

Great location, free dinner every day and daily free activities! The staff was so helpful and friendly, specially Ciera, she took us to the bunkers and it was a lot of fun. She also made sure I was aware of all the free activities happening and she made me feel included!

I arrived at Black Swan Hostel last night around 1:00 a.m. after a long international flight. When I got to the room, someone was already sleeping in the bed they gave me. The staff then told me to use the bed above since it was supposedly empty. Shortly after, another guest arrived and said that was their bed. I sat with the workers Luis and Nick for some time while they tried to find a solution, but they ultimately told me the hostel was fully booked and that no bed was available even though I had already paid. This left me, a solo female traveler, wandering the streets of Barcelona at 2:30 AM by myself trying to find an overpriced hotel with last-minute availability. It was stressful, unsafe, and completely unacceptable. While Luis and Nick were kind and did their best, this was clearly an administrative failure and a management issue. When I later came back to request a refund, not a single staff member apologized or showed empathy for what happened. This experience was so negative that it has completely put me off hostels. I would never recommend this place, and management seriously needs to address their booking system and customer service.

Lovely Hostel centrally located. Good staff. Good Vibe. and a great opportunity to practice my 6 languages skills. Gracias Ramiro from BsAs Palermo and the lovely girl from Morro de São Paulo, Muito Legao.

I've stayed here a few times and it's always great. Just the right size hostel, not too big not too small, and very social. Big thanks to Kristina for leading the bar crawl!

Absolutely enjoyed my 5 day stay here! The staff were friendly, welcoming and had amazing suggestions! The hostel is part of a chain with 2 other locations. I'd say the Gracia location is the more chill and smaller location. If you enjoy a laid back vibe in a cool neighborhood, this is definitely the place to be at. There's a well stocked kitchen with some free condiments available. There's a nice lounging area with bean bags and a terrace too. There are daily pub crawls and other activities organized. There's also a nightly dinner event which you could sign up for at a fee. There's also daily breakfast available for a fee. I loved that there were laundry facilities available right at the hostel! The hostel was also impeccably clean and well maintained.

St Jordi Hostel Gracia is definitely a great option for anyone who wants to enjoy the unique atmosphere of this beloved neighborhood in Barcelona. The hostel offers excellent value for money and a privileged location, surrounded by bars, restaurants, and supermarkets. The facilities are very clean, well-organized, and well-equipped. The lockers are convenient and don’t require your own padlock, which makes them feel safer. Towels are also provided for guests. The only small downside for me was the automatic lighting system in the rooms, which turns on and off at scheduled times. However, this doesn’t affect the overall experience. All in all, it’s an excellent choice for those looking for a comfortable and budget-friendly stay.

Very solid hostel! Have stayed in a few in Barcelona. Felt decently clean and it’s in a super local-feeling neighborhood unlike most of the hostels which are closer to the University and Gothic Quarter. I wasn’t there on a weekend but it definitely didn’t feel like a party hostel, more of a place to get some sleep

Had such a wonderful stay here! Have had many hostels stays since but none so good at getting people together and fostering a community :,) met the best folks, enjoyed FREE guided nights out on the town and tons of opportunities for events and getting to know people. Frederica in particular went out of her way to get people on board for fun adventures and make everyone feel welcome. Absolutely recommend a stay here!

Such a good hostel especially for solo travelers :) Amazing location in one of Barcelona’s nicest + safest neighborhoods, and also there are many grocery stores/coffee shops/stores in the area so it’s convenient to get whatever you need. Super clean, actually one of the cleanest hostels I’ve ever visited. Fully equipped kitchen, lots of common space to hang out, and fun social activities each night. Shoutout to Mariano and Federica who were so kind and helpful, went out of their way to help me figure out places in the city/public transportation etc and made me feel very welcome. Had some great chats and laughs. Would definitely come back. Thank you all for a lovely experience!! - anna from NJ <3

My friend and I enjoyed a great 3 nights at this hostel and the vibe was great. There were daily activities and bar crawls including people from other hostels that made a great opportunity to explore the city and meet cool people. Special shout out to staff member Federica and Lucia for providing amazing service providing recommendations, accommodations and providing great conversations. The neighborhood is also very chill and has many places to eat or hangout.

Insane, the rooms are over a 100 degrees with NO AIR-CONDITIONING. I paid for a room with A/C and this is the second Sant Jordi hostel I’ve tried to stay at that falsely advertised air conditioned rooms. I have a disability where I need to sleep in cool places so this was very disappointing. Will never stay at this hostel chain again, they lie about the facilities. The location is also out of the way and not convenient.

The room was clean and there is a curtain on every bed for privacy! There is one spacious locker room for every bed. Overall the hostel was very nice. It has a comfortable space with seats and sofas to chill or get to know the other guests and a kitchen where to cook your meals. The best part of our stay was the guy at the front desk Edwin, who helped us with everything we needed with a big smile on his face all the time. Definitely recommend this hostel!

This hostel is awesome! It's clean, roomy, and the staff are super friendly. Plus, they have AC, which is great. I loved it there. They got back to me right away with all the info I needed. Their English is good too. Definitely recommend it! It's close to the metro and the fun part of town. And the decor is cute!

Clean, comfortable and cute! This place offers everything that a good hostel should: Aircon in the rooms all day (especially when it's 30°+), curtains/light/plug/shelf for each bed, and spacious washrooms. The social area has a cool vibe and the kitchen has everything you need. The reception is also super helpful; Matias and Edwin made my stay super easy and pleasant. Highly recommend ✨💖✨ Addition: Lorenzo was super kind and helpful at the end of my stay too 🙏

Stayed here and LOVED it. Was clean with good location, but what really stood out was the service and sense of community fostered by the staff. Edwin was AMAZING, I have never had such amazing service at a hostel or hotel. He made us feel at home and was such a warm presence. Would highly recommend booking here just to experience the staff!

Location was good, rooms are clean. They have common area with open kitchen where you can store and cook your own food. Notice: The guys who work in reception were friendly and helpful except the lady who work morning shift, obviously she lacks cultural comprehension and in fact she’s a bit rude. I arrived earlier than my check-in time, so I wanted to lay down in the lobby, she told me I can’t lay down because I was over relaxed! I saw other people lay down too and no one bothered them!

Mina and Edwin and the rest of staff are super friendly and accommodating. Place is well kept and fits the theme well. Hot showers and lockers are always a plus and the beds are very comfy. Nice ac in the rooms. I recommend this hostel.

This hostel was a disappointment for me. It's only good for sleeping. I wanted a backpacker experience, but I found out there that activities cost 15€ extra and not daily , contrary to what they told me by email. The refrigerator didn't work and it's forbidden to put water in it, I didn't like that.

Such awesome staff and vibe!! Small, but all you need! However, the rooms really smelled. I had to cover my nose to sleep. I only wish the shoes inside was more reinforced. However, 100% recommend because Gràcia is a great area as well!

Honestly, as good as an affordable hostel with a dorm of 16 people can be. The beds are in somewhat of cubicles with curtains which give you privacy. Little tip, the bottom beds are cooler but slighly more noisy, top ones are way warmer even when the window is fully open (which was our case) and you hear a bit less everyone moving around but it's a pain to go down the stairs at night if you need to, so choose wisely at reception if you have the choice. Great service, provides towels, shower gels (no hair dryer for ladies but that's to be expected). Spacious kitchen area with free tea & coffee. Adorable staff, really, one even nearly run to us to lend us an umbrella cause he saw it was gonna rain on that day, can't remember his name but it was 9th of may morning. Good wifi as well, nothing to complain about, shower/toilets were clean, room was a bit smelly but that's not the hostel's fault and to be expected in a dorm with 16 people. I wasnt but I think I would have feel safe solo travelling as a woman in this hostel as well.

Solo female, 22 y/o. Staying here was great. Although the common room was smaller than other hostels it was very cozy, the kitchen was extremely functional for cooking with many clean utensils. There is an angel of a cleaning lady who comes every single morning and cleans the bathrooms floors and changes all communal towels. Curtains across bed provided good privacy. Very clean and safe space with good vibes, everyone respectful and staff very friendly and willing to help with anything. Would definitely stay here again!

The rooms were very hot and poorly aired out. Only one small ac unit per room that was very poorly directed and most of it went down the hallway and missed the beds completely. Staff was nice and pretty helpful. Location was the best part, quiet area but very short walk to bars and restaurants and tourist attractions. People were nice and the common and kitchen area were decent. As for the rooms, having lots of locked storage was nice (make sure you bring your own lock). The rooms got very smelly and I think people didn’t wash their clothes because they overcharged for people to use the laundry machine. The beds were tight (I am 180cm) and it was just barely big enough for me. Having the curtains for privacy was nice but made it super hot as they trapped in the heat. Each bed had a small table, light and charging port which was nice but made the bed feel more claustrophobic. Other than that the pillows and blankets were small but good enough. As for the bathrooms, only having 2 showers and toilets for all the men made it somewhat difficult to access as there were always people trying to go and get it. Overall I’d give it a 3.5/5 not bad but I’m sure there is much better places at similar price points.

Great youth hostel. Me and my friend stayed there for 2 nights, it was really cosy, the beds aren't huge but great, there is coffee and a free-to-use kitchen. Staff was really nice, and the hostel is located near a metro L3 station, which will lead you to the center of Barcelona in approx 20min. And it was cheap !

It was away better than I thought. An excellent and warm reception, good service, very clear and organized rooms. They offer you a clean towel, there is tooth brush kits to buy for 1€, kitchen free for use. The beed rooms are clear and have good smell, you have password for entry in to the beed room and a lock for your luggage. Near you can have good and at small prices breakfast at coffee shops( I recommend E'l former de L'uisa shop 😊), you have groceries store and place to have lunch too. Also its located near Vallcarca metro station which you can get a metro L1(orange line) from the airport until university zone and change to L3(Green) to reach Vallcarca station, the are around is very cozy and builtifull, you will enjoy walking around and discover the views.

I definitely recommend Rocket Hostels-Gràcia! Had 2 excellent weeks, the bed is comfortable with curtains and the shared amenities pretty clean! Excellent service!

The hostel looks modern and the layout is decent, but the experience felt average and forgettable. It’s in Sant Martí, close to the beach and transport, but far from the city center and most good food spots. Beds were clearly free by 11:30 AM, but I was still asked to wait till 2 PM and pay for a locker. It felt more about charging guests than being helpful unlike most European hostels that try to accommodate early check-ins, especially for long-haul travellers. When I asked about getting to the airport at 5:00 AM, they didn’t mention metro or bus options (which do run early in Barcelona) rather they just pushed their paid cab. Again, it felt more like a sell than support. The vibe was low. No real social energy, and the staff felt a bit cold. Facilities were okay, though some areas needed better cleaning. Based on reviews, I expected more energy and better value. Not the right pick if you're looking for a warm, social, or service-focused hostel.

The place looks nice in pictures but there are some parts that aren’t great. 1. Location: if you want to visit landmarks like Sagrada Familia or Plaça Catalunya, you’ll always need to take the metro or public transport. They’re not within walking distance. 2. Beds: they could be better. I understand the idea of quantity over quality, but a firmer bed structure would make a big difference. 3. Dorm showers: terrible. They look dirty and are poorly designed. 4. Luggage: the storage slot was decent, but it’s the first time I’ve stayed in a hostel for more than two nights where they only offer luggage storage for a fee. I asked the reception clerk if I could drop my bags for an hour and she told me I had to go to the first floor and pay for a locker. I work in hospitality and luggage storage should be a basic service, especially for guests staying longer than the average two nights. 5. Kitchen and common areas: they’re nice, but some nights you can’t really use them to relax because of their social events. If you plan on sitting in the kitchen at night, keep in mind there’s usually music and games going on. 6. Staff: nice overall. The Argentinian girl at the front desk was very friendly. A big issue for me was the checkout time ( when I booked on the website it said 12, but when I arrived they’d covered the sign and changed it to 11, ride).Also, the cleaning staff could be more respectful in the morning. They just come into the room without knocking. I stayed over Halloween and most of the girls in my room were still sleeping when they walked in. Overall: the place works for a night or two, especially if you’re tired and just need somewhere to crash. They pride themselves on having 440 beds, but there should also be a focus on human quality and actual amenities since I saw a lot of families and single travelers staying as well. Would I stay here again? Voluntarily, no.

had a great stay at the hostel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the check-in process was quick and easy. My room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a short stay. The common areas were cozy and inviting, with good facilities. The location was super for me close to sea — close to public transport, . All in all, it was good value for money and I’d definitely stay here again for a short trip!”

Just had a great stay at Unite Hostel! The cleanliness of the rooms was pretty good, earning a solid 4 stars. 😊 The location is also a plus, making it easy to explore Barcelona. The room itself was comfortable and cozy, definitely a solid 4-star experience. I suggest it especially if you are travelling by yourself cause sharing a bedroom with people makes it easier to make friends and find people to do things with. 🌟 Would recommend it to fellow travelers!

Very affordable, amazing location, good cheap breakfast and prices. Staff are amazing girls with much patience and very helpfull. They always organize fun events partys and make your stay 300 times better. Best barcelona experience as a local spaniard. The only bad thing is privacy in the rooms, curtains will be easy solution for better reviwes. The hostel is a 10/10 💕

My recent stay at Unite Hostel in Barcelona was exceptional. The cleanliness of the rooms was impeccable, earning a well-deserved 5-star rating. The hostel's location is ideal, providing easy access to many attractions in the city. The accommodations were comfortable and well-maintained, ensuring a pleasant stay. Additionally, the organized events were engaging and contributed significantly to a vibrant atmosphere. I highly recommend Unite Hostel to anyone looking for a fantastic experience in Barcelona.

Best things is supermarket and beach is really close, so much open space outside the hostel, location is safe for late night travel.I like that it has attached washroom and dressing is inside the room. Room is small for 8 beds and there is less space for big baggage. Room service is good but hygiene practice should be improved.

Dangerous lack of security in this hostel! I checked-in to my room and within 30 minutes of arrival had some of my belongs stolen from inside my bed. When I was unpacking, I noticed a man sleeping in one of the beds with food lying all around him and he looked very dirty. I thought this was odd, but perhaps he had come back from a night out. He then woke up and I saw him looking through the lockers in the room but again assumed he was just confused and looking for his things. After I returned from the bathroom, he was gone and so were my belongings. After speaking with my roommates, many of them also mentioned that they were missing various valuable belongings. We later discovered he was a stranger who had somehow bypassed the hotel front door and broken into our room. The reception night staff were very dismissive and reacted as though this happens every other night. They would not even look through the cctv footage themselves to check if this thief was still inside the hotel. After looking through some of the other reviews and talking to others at the hostel, this sounds very common here. I understand that valuables should be secured in lockers in a hostel, however I would never have expected a non-guest to so easily access the room and go into my bed. As a solo female traveller this made me feel so unsafe and I had to end my stay early.

My stay was defined by a compelling contrast between cutting-edge comfort and one significant, sleep-disrupting oversight. The sleeping quarters were a marvel of modern hostel design, featuring ingenious personal niches that offered a surprising sense of space. Each berth was outfitted with brilliantly convenient individual reading lights and power outlets, allowing me to charge my phone without ever leaving the cozy confines of what were, without exaggeration, the most comfortable beds I've encountered in my travels. The crisp, clean bedding and the gentle hum of effective air conditioning created a near-perfect sanctuary from the vibrant energy of the city. However, this sanctuary was profoundly compromised by the complete absence of a simple curtain. This single flaw made for unexpectedly rough nights, as the lack of a visual and acoustic barrier left me exposed to the inevitable disturbances of a shared dormitory—the glare of a latecomer's light and the sounds of a fellow traveler's snoring. It was a stark reminder that no amount of technological convenience can replace the fundamental privacy and peace a basic curtain provides. Despite this nightly challenge, the human element of the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The staff was consistently top-rate, radiating a genuine warmth and helpfulness that truly set the tone for the entire community. Their unwavering dedication was the backbone of a wonderfully social atmosphere, where connecting with fellow travelers from around the world felt effortless and enriching. They were the undeniable highlight, masterfully balancing professional efficiency with heartfelt hospitality.

The room is nice and clean, But the staff are very unfriendly seems like they hate their job. The blond guy checked us in and even the girl with curly hair checked us out, they both were very rude and mean. The girl started to be mean just because we asked about luggage storage, which makes no sense to be such rude and mean. I guess stuff hates to get any questions. So if you wonder about keeping luggage, There is a locker cost €3 for medium €4 for large the first hour and €0.50 on top of each hour. They also have other storage apparently depends on your booking you have to pay. but I'm unsure about it because she didn't want to explain. Anyway I would never come back even if the hostel itself is nice, such a shame it would have been a nice place with friendly or at least kind staff.

This hostel is disappointing overall. I thought this would be a good spot for digital nomads to socialise but it wasn’t. The bunk bed in room 403 was completely sagged. If you have a sensitive lower back like me, you'd might end up the next morning with pain. This was the first time in a month of traveling that that happened. My second-hand IKEA couch at home feels more supportive than this bed. The upper bunks also have no curtains or rails, so when someone turns on the light at night it shines straight into your eyes. For work a stable connection is essential, but the Wi-Fi here was really poor. The lockers are placed so high it’s hard to reach them if you’re short and carrying a big backpack. Other small inconveniences: only one washing machine and one dryer, one hooks and no shelves in the shower to put your clothes, silverfish in the toilet, poor lighting at the sink (not great for makeup) and no clean bowls at breakfast. I had to eat my cereal out of a coffee mug. They also make you pay for luggage storage. The air conditioning didn’t work in the common area (with almost no atmosphere), so I ended up sweating during my online meetings - and the Wi-Fi barely reached that space either. I actually left at noon to work from a café instead. The last straw was when a staff member insisted she’d given me a laundry token when she clearly hadn’t, and we had an awkward argument over it. To be fair, the rest of the staff were kind and attentive. The breakfast team always greeted guests with a smile and the reception staff listened and even offered a small compensation after I explained my issues. I really wish I could rate it higher, but between the bad bed, weak Wi-Fi, and hot common areas, it just wasn’t a pleasant stay.

Location is A1. You're basically in the heart of Barcelona's gayborhood, and I never felt unsafe - even when walking home from the clubs in the wee hours of the morning. Anything you need is within a 10 minute walk - groceries, restaurants, shopping, transit... everything. Rooms were modern and cleaned regularly. I stayed here for like 3 weeks across different shared rooms - one had an en suite bathroom, and the other two did not, and so you used the shared one on the floor. There are 6 individual bathrooms per floor - 3 on each side. I never had to wait for a free toilet, BUT - idk if it's what they're eating or what, but you were pretty much guaranteed to walk into a "painted" toilet bowl once a day. They were, however, cleaned regularly - by the next day at the latest. There are 2 shower rooms per floor - one for women and one for men. Be aware that the men were not very observant of the signage - a picture of women on the women's shower door, and men on the men's, and several times they would barrel into the room. So - maybe don't ever be naked in the main area of the shower room. The shower rooms have 3 stalls, with locking doors and a light switch. There's soap on the wall, a small shelf, and a hook outside the door, as well as more hooks on the wall outside the stalls. Two sinks, and a hairdryer, but the one on the second floor wasn't working when I was there in September. The room will smell of sewage if the door isn't left open to air out, which the cleaning staff would do after cleaning, and I would if I was just int here doing my hair or something. I think it's something about the water traps not staying full to block the scent wafting up through the pipes. It wasn't overbearing - not necessarily pleasant though... like the level of aroma in a room if someone farted. I preferred the shared showers to the en suite, because you have to walk through the en suite to get to the beds, and when in a mixed gender dorm, was concerned I would be walked in on by someone returning to the room. Shower stall in the en suite was larger though, and no hairdryer. Was nice to have an ensuite toilet, and it's a separate room from the shower. Two sinks. All sinks are time release knobs - have to press a few times to let water heat up, but showers are free rein. Beds were comfortable, and you can ask for a duvet/comforter at the front desk, which frees you to use the provided sheet as a curtain, as there aren't any on the beds. Locker in the room is plenty big - it fit my carryon, backpack, and lots of shopping. Bring your own lock, or you can buy on either from the front desk or at a convenience store. Kitchen in the basement has cooking utensils, a fridge (not much room, but you can fit something), a stove, sink, seating... and shelves for dry goods. Pool was a nice touch, but was too cold for me to use in September, but others did. I had no issue having them store my luggage when I arrived, or temporarily while I checked out/back into a new room. Free wifi, and a few areas to relax, including a bar, rooftop, and outside smoking area. Overall, I really liked my stay there - it felt more like hotel than a hostel, and would stay here again!

Good location, clean rooms, and nice common areas (both indoors and outdoors). The terrace and pool get sun until early afternoon. The rooms have spacious lockers and rather comfy beds. However, the beds do not have curtains, so you get little to no privacy in the door rooms. Luggage storage before check-in and after check-out requires using paid lockers. When I had an issue with the booking.com app, I asked the receptionist if I could extend my stay directly through them / make a new booking through them. They said no, and I had to make a completely new booking by myself, which resulted me needing to change dorm rooms. Fair enough—but I still had to pay for locker storage while waiting to re-check-in, even though I was staying at the same hostel as the night before. Another downside was the check-in process, which felt very inefficient and slow. On both days I needed to queue for 35-45 minutes to check-in, even though most customers had filled in the online check-in form.

Value for money is not aligned here. The rooms are fine & clean very small & no space to hang towels ect. The breakfast was disappointing and the organisation of it horrible. The staff at reception & breakfast are very unmotivated.

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in! The staff and volunteers were warm and welcoming, and Felix in particular went out of his way to make sure I had a great time. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless and well-maintained throughout my 3-day stay, so comfort was never an issue. What truly makes this a 10/10 property are the daily activities—free walking tours, group dinners, and bar-hopping nights—that create such a fun, social atmosphere. It’s the perfect blend of comfort and community, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for more than just a place to sleep.

I had a fantastic experience at One Fam Sants in Barcelona! The check-in process was super easy, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The hospitality here really stands out.it made me feel right at home. The rooms are amazing, comfortable, and well-maintained. I’m from India, and I can honestly say this is one of the best hostel experiences I’ve had. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Barcelona! Will definitely stay here again.

Such an amazing hostel! My first time staying in a hostel and it was a complete game changer. The staff were amazing, with a special shout out to Tiara who was extremely welcoming and friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure I had the best time. I dont have a single complaint about the place and I will definitely visit again!

Probably the best hostel in Barcelona? Only stayed one night but this place stood out in the whole trip - super friendly and informative host who did a tour explaining everything and invited out for the social. Small, clean and cosy no complaints. Staying again when next in Barlelona, all the best!!

I stayed at OneFam Barcelona twice on my trip. It was my favourite hostel by far. All the rooms and beds are clean and comfortable. The staff are lovely, Bel and Michelle made me feel so welcomed. They had everything so well organised with a day tour and party tour every night.

One of the best happening hostel in Barcelona, helpful staff and amazing amenities. Great vibe overall. They organized some events and nice welcome drinks and food. Totally recommended in to travelers in Barcelona.

I will recommend this hostel 💯 I really enjoyed my stay in Barcelona i had so much fun 😁 they are always willing to help and make your stay in the hostel a memorable one.😀 daily activities, game, group tour and family dinner 🍽 party. I would like to say a big thank you to Lucas,Max, Joel and staff you guys are awesome 👌 👏

I stayed at this Hostel for 2 nights. I was received by Angel (the one from Argentina) et Chidhi (the one from tunisia) (I’m really sorry if i’m wrong on the names i don’t have a good memory). The service was excellent, i instantly felt safe the people there were great. The whole staff was good. The place is really cool i liked the vibe there and the rooms are clean. Lot of young people i made good friends in only 2 days. Thank you for my time there, i recommend the place.

I am disappointed: the bed- and bathrooms are like in 20-30 euros hostel. However, this one is 50 euro per night. They made a nice interior in the entrance, but forgot about basic functionality in the bed- and bathrooms. Examples: (1) no little separate lamp per bed, (2) no little shelf boards next to the mattress (should I sleep with my phone in the bed..?), (3) only one hanger in the showers (towel and clothers on the same little hanger), (4) no little shelf board in the shower (should I put my phone and locker card on the wet floor), (5) no table outside the room to rearrange luggage (should I do this on the floor while there is random interior decoration everywhere?). Overall, 4-5 stars if it was 25 euros per night, but for 50, not worth the price. The nice entrance is misleading.

Stayed here for 3 days and loved it!! The hostel is clean, friendly, and has a great atmosphere. Sakura was the best, she guided us on two nights out and also made delicious tapas and sangria, which made the stay even more special. Definitely recommend and would come back!!!

Staff very friendly and helpful but rooms and conditions disaster. Windows in the rooms were every day open and I was able to hear loud traffic all night every night, and the people going to this place they are not aware of staying in hostel. Every night they were making party in the lobby and they were very loud. Toilets were always busy and very dirty. Nice rooftop and close to catch bus to the airport 🙋🏻

Amazing stay here, 10/10 recommend! Martin, Sarah, Ondra and the whole reception crew are so kind and friendly and really made my time here the best. I had so much fun on the activity night, the volunteers cooked us the most delicious tapas and made sangria for everyone it was so fun! Also everything is super clean, bed is very nice, everything you could want from a hostel!

I stayed at this hostel for a couple of days and it was just great the vibes. Very cozy. The perfect place to relax and meet great people. The staff was amazing especially Sarah at the front desk who was very kind and showed us around and helped us find good spot to visit and eat! Also a big thank you to Sakura who showed us around with the pubcrawl. Both very sweet and funny girls! Gabriel B.

Second time I have been and only stayed one night this time - but it was great again and the staff were very helpful. I especially enjoyed Sakura's inspired cooking and authentic sangria, and for showing us around some great local bars within easy walking distance! She was super friendly.

Stayed here for a few nights with a friend (we are both in our late 20s-early 30s), although we were in different 8-bed dorms. Keep in mind that this is very much a party hostel with a full schedule of events, quite catered to the kind of young traveller who loves to party. This isn't super clear in their marketing. Some people would love that kind of environment, but it wasn't really my thing. The dorms and bathrooms themselves were fine, privacy curtains were great, and air-conditioned while sleeping. Staff were also super friendly.

I honestly had the best time here. The hostel has such a friendly and social vibe, and the staff really make it feel like home. Special shout out to Lucy for the warmest welcome she was so helpful, fun, and made check-in feel like arriving at a friend’s place. The activities and atmosphere made it super easy to meet people, and I wish I could have stayed longer. Definitely will come back to Barcelona and stay here again 100% recommend!

Really enjoyed this hostel experience. Rooms were clean, staff friendly and attentive, and vibes immaculate. Special shoutout to Natasha who was very welcoming and whipped up an incredibly hearty dinner meal. Olivia for listening to me yap, Aiden for bringing the party vibes, Alistair for being so Australian and chill you might think he's high although he's 100% sober, Sasha and Dorothea always upbeat and friendly, and the new Australian volunteer (forgot her name, sorry) who recommended me a site to secure a ticket to the game last minute!

Such an amazing stay! I made friends here I will literally have for months to come and the workers at the hostel were also so friendly and wonderful. They did such a good job having us feel we were family and made sure everyone was having fun. Literally 100/10 experience if this is your first trip to Spain or 53tg staying with them is a must!

One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The dorms, common areas, location, and free dinners are all great — but it’s the staff that make it next level. Liv is an awesome party host — she brings a fun, hilarious vibe that gets everyone involved— organizing drinking games and leading everyone out for a wild night in the bars / clubs. Aidan, Sasa, and Alister all added to that community-driven, high-energy vibe and made sure no one was left out At a lot of hostels, staff keep to themselves, but here it’s a real community — whether you’re staying one night or ten. Not sure what the interview process is like to work here, but other hostels gotta take notes

Great hostel to meet people and form new connections since its not that large. 5-10 minute walk to the nearest metro and countless restaurants/markets nearby. Rooms are air conditioned and quiet hours are enforced after 10:30pm. FREE vegetarian dinner daily at 8pm, drinking games at 9pm, and pub crawl at 10pm. Special shoutout to Lucy at the check-in desk, who provided great local recommendations. Sasa and Dorothea are both fun to yap with and made my experience memorable. Also Brooke is the best at offering free late night city walking tours, definitely sign up for them if you get the chance.

Aidan and Sasa are the best freaking host ever. everyone is kind and fun and the hostel had amazing social environment. Would one million percent recommend

Amazing stay at Onefam Batlló. Charlie was able to provide great service by listening to the special request I had for a specific bunk bed and reserving it. Charlie was also kind enough to help lift my heavy luggage up the stairs (only 1 floor up). Zoe was very friendly and talkative during casual meetings during lunch and dinner and provided great travel tips to other cities. Free dinner was made every night followed by drinking games, pub crawl. There was an organized tour everyday at 1:30pm (tip what you can). All the staff and guests were very social. It was easy to meet new friends and have a good vibe. Great location near casa batlló and nice restaurants. I am a clean freak. The bed and sheets were clean. I was very happy there was no mold or strange smells in the showers and toilets. Lastly, there was an unexpected crisis when I missed my flight and Charlie was like one family by making arrangements to help me stay a few hours before my rebooked early morning flight. This thankfully helped me avoid sleeping overnight at the airport where there are some sketchy people. Many thanks OneFam Batlló! Perfect hostel experience!

It was my first time staying in a hostel and I’ve had a positive experience overall. If you’re a young, social person who likes to party, this hostel is the right choice! The facilities are clean, the rooms are also fine, just like any other hostel I assume, the shared areas are modern and cozy. That said, the hostel is small, so it does get noisy, especially around dinner. The staff is very kind and helpful and they organize a lot of events and activities for the guests. I didn’t participate, because I had already planned everything out with a couple of friends of mine that were staying elsewhere but I could see it was fun and everything was timely communicated. The location is also great, easy to get everywhere you need. Even though the terms say they only accommodate people from 18-44, this is honestly a hostel for people in their 20s. If you’re a remote worker like myself, don’t expect to get much work done. There isn’t a quiet corner where you can do meetings and I highly recommend bringing noise cancellation earphones. Overall, I enjoyed my stay even though I didn’t stay long, so I would come back if I manage to get a few days off work entirely.

I stayed here recently and honestly had one of the best hostel experiences I’ve ever had. As someone who’s usually pretty introverted, I wasn’t sure how much I’d actually connect with other travelers, but the atmosphere made it so easy. The common areas are welcoming and relaxed, and I ended up meeting some amazing people without ever feeling pressured. The facilities are spotless – bathrooms and dorms were always clean, which made me feel super comfortable. On top of that, the staff are incredibly friendly and approachable, always ready to help out or give recommendations. This hostel manages to strike the perfect balance between being social and chill, and it really exceeded my expectations. Even if you’re not the most outgoing person, you’ll have a great time here. Highly recommend

If you are young and looking for just a welcoming home base, this is the hostel for you! I am a very ‘fly by the seat of my pants’ gal, but I don’t mess around on getting a place that feels safe; and this place was just perfect for a first hostel experience. The people were immediately open, friendly and welcoming. I got there around dinner time and the family dinner was a perfect leeway into meeting people no matter who you are. The place felt like just a bunch of young responsible and respectful young adults making a safe space for all travelers. It was clean, with cleaners there in the morning, and easy to find help from the hosts at the desk that’s located in the living room. Full disclaimer. If you are looking for a comforting hostel to work remote. I do not recommend. It does get noisy after dinner time around 9 with the drinking games. They are fun and do not go on long enough to get out of hand, but I do understand if you aren’t partaking it can get distracting, loud, or annoying. The beds are super comfy and clean. You have a privacy curtain which helps a lot getting sleep and having some privacy. There is also an extra blanket for those who commonly get too cold with the cranked up A/C. There are usb and euro plug options by your head to charge devices and a little shelf close by. There is a slight problem with maybe messiness of the room and other people belongings, but again, you are living with other people who take care of themselves differently so you get what you get. Another plus is locks on each different room (which is common for hostels) to ensure privacy of the people sleeping there. Another safety feature is the lockers under your bed to keep your belongings. It is small, only tall enough to slide a suitcase in, but honestly I didn’t feel the need to be worried about that as it felt like everyone respected everyone’s stuff. Nitpicking, I think people could just be more aware of closing the room door in the mornings when people are trying to sleep to keep out the living room noise, and maybe add a big screen to the windows because I got chewed up by mosquitos (which I can deal with, just thought I’d say it). The bar crawls are optional and no pressure is put upon people to go or not which I love. While out, everyone took care of everyone and made sure we all knew what people were doing. But I’m sure that when these bar crawls are happening it gets enjoying can and quiet in the hostel. Clubs! Clubs are usually just for when you get well influenced and want to keep the night going, but also if you want to join here or leave here after doing bar crawls or meet up (there is a group chat for everyone in the hostel including the hosts) it’s a very ‘choose your own adventure’ situation. To wrap up, I can not include my thoughts on the process of getting extra things like towels, how the showers were, or situations with stolen stuff because I did not do or experience any of this. Thank you so much to everyone, I’ve made memories here in just the one night I was here that I will never forget!!!🫶🏼 I will be back!

I had 4 days in Barcelona and booked the hostel for 2, thinking I’d Airbnb the other two. I guessed that the hostel would be low key gross and I’d want a reprieve at the end of my trip. I also don’t party a ton and had no intentions of going out every night so didn’t know if a party hostel would feel overwhelming. Was totally wrong. Everything was fairly clean (super clean by hostel standards) and the environment / location were nice enough.. but what made this experience was TRULY the people. You can tell how much every member of the team really wants you to enjoy your stay and they went so far out of their way to ensure everyone was having a nice time. Coffee was made every morning that you could enjoy, an extremely helpful group chat that outlined the daily activity (often a tour of some sort- I never went but heard good things), a light vegetarian dinner was made (and they were generous with seconds if you were especially hungry), then drinking games, followed by a bar, followed by a club. Members of the staff came out every night to facilitate logistics, making navigating the city especially easy. On the nights I decided to stay in, they provide ear plugs and I was never woken up by people coming in late. I ended up extending my stay for the duration of my time in Barcelona and left wishing I could have stayed longer. Ruby was incredibly kind, fun, and made bomb veggie nachos, Joshie let me tag along to his run club, Mattea worked (and partied) her bootie off to make sure everything ran smoothly for everyone, and Gavin was so, incredibly warm and welcoming. A very sincere thank you to the team for such a lovely stay ♥️

My friends and I recently took our first trip to Barcelona together, and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay than Onefam Batlló Hostel. This place truly did not disappoint. Let’s start with cleanliness. The hostel was impeccably maintained throughout our entire stay. I often saw the janitor diligently cleaning and mopping, ensuring that all the bathrooms were stocked with toilet paper and everything remained spotless. There was never a moment when dirty dishes lingered in the common areas, which created a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. Now, I have to highlight the staff. Each and every one of them was genuinely special and contributed to our wonderful experience. They were friendly, warm, and always willing to help with a smile. It felt like they truly cared about making our stay enjoyable, which made a huge difference. Shout out to Mattea, Abby, Paige, Ruby, Elizabeth, and Crist. Overall, Onefam Batlló Hostel was the perfect home base for our Barcelona adventure. Clean, welcoming, and full of character, it’s a place I highly recommend to anyone visiting this beautiful city!

Onefam Batlló, you have my heart! <3 This is the best hostel experience I have ever had. To start with the accommodations, the beds were so nice with a very black out curtain, two plug spaces, and a shelf to keep items on during the night, which was very handy when charging multiple items. Lockers were under the bed and were very spacious. It fit my 40L and 15L day pack, along with other items without issue. There is a full kitchen and the most cozy, homey common spaces- it was sometimes hard to go explore the city because of how at home I felt in the space! The facility was cleaned multiple times a day and was kept so clean, notably cleaner than any other hostel I have stayed in. In relation to hostel programming, the hostel hosts a day activity each day- I loved my walking tour with Tyler and Ben did a fantastic job leading us there. They alternate activities so each day has a new one, such as beach trips, tours, and more. Then, they also do a daily family dinner at 8pm, pre-game, and then take you out to awesome clubs at night. The dinner is delicious and free each night. There is often also free sangria that is soooo good. The drinking games are very fun and help you get to know people! Through all their programming and activities, it is soooo easy to meet other guests and volunteers/staff! Additionally, while I am not shy, even shyer guests are able to make friends because of how remarkably intentional and inclusive the volunteers are. For example, on my last night, some new, seemingly shyer guests had come in- special shoutout to Ben and Sam for being so inclusive in welcoming the newbies in, seeking them out, and helping them find a seat at a table to make them feel included right away. This is just one example of many of how the staff go the extra mile in small moments to make every guest feel included. Overall, the best thing about my time at One Fam was the incredible people. The staff and volunteers at Onefam Battló are truly such authentic, cool, amazing people who want the best for your stay and for you to have fun. With only 36 beds (I think?) at the hostel, it is the perfect size to have new people come in each day, but also get to know people on a meaningful level. The guests were also awesome- I am already planning a trip with some of my Room 3 besties! Shout out to Mattea for the good vibes, Ben, Justine, Katie L, Maya, Lucy, Helena, Liz, and everyone for such an amazing time!! Lastly, shout out to room three...love you for life <3 I will be back Battló- take care of room 3 for me!! LOVE U ONEFAM!!!-Katie

The Sagrada Família in Barcelona is truly one of the most breathtaking architectural masterpieces in the world. Designed by the genius Antoni Gaudí, this basilica is a perfect blend of art, nature, and spirituality. Every detail — from the soaring towers to the intricate carvings — tells a story and reflects Gaudí’s deep imagination and devotion. The interior is just as stunning as the exterior. When sunlight shines through the colorful stained-glass windows, the entire space glows with vibrant colors, creating a peaceful and almost magical atmosphere. It feels like stepping into a dream. Although it’s still under construction after more than a century, that only adds to its charm and mystery. Visiting the Sagrada Família is not just about seeing a building — it’s about experiencing the heart of Barcelona’s culture and creativity. It’s an absolute must-see for anyone visiting Spain.

The Basilica de la Sagrada Família in Barcelona is one of the most extraordinary architectural masterpieces in the world. Designed by Antoni Gaudí, it perfectly combines faith, art, and innovation. The intricate details of the façade, inspired by nature and biblical stories, are breathtaking, while the interior feels almost otherworldly, filled with colorful light streaming through the stained-glass windows. The atmosphere inside is both peaceful and awe-inspiring. Although the basilica is still under construction, this adds a unique charm, witnessing a living piece of history being completed. Visiting the Sagrada Família is an unforgettable experience and an absolute must-see in Barcelona.

Visiting the Sagrada Família was unforgettable. The exterior is already stunning, but the interior truly amazed me. The way light pours through the stained-glass windows creates a calm, ethereal atmosphere that feels almost unreal. Even with crowds, the space feels peaceful and intentional. The blend of nature-inspired design, soaring columns, and intricate details makes this one of the most inspiring architectural experiences I have ever had. Highly recommend booking in advance and choosing a tower visit if you can — the views add another layer to understanding Gaudí’s vision.

We had a guided tour. We don't normally do this but in this case it was necessary. The guide was informative amusing and personable. As for the Sagrada Familia itself, quite simply WOW! It was everything we had been told and so much more. The explanations of Gaudi's reasoning for the various aspects of the design brought the whole building into focus. It is truly an experience. The company we used was The Tour Guy. If all their guides are as good as ours you cannot go wrong. It may seem costly but IMHO it's worth it.

The Basilica of the Sagrada Família is truly one of the most awe-inspiring sites in the world and ​s​hould be on your must-see ​ list in Barcelona. No photos can capture the feeling of standing inside and seeing the light pour through the stained-glass windows—it’s breathtaking. The blend of color, geometry, and symbolism in Gaudí’s design is unlike anything else. Every column and carving feels purposeful, telling a story that connects nature, faith, and art. We booked ​a​ guided tour in advance, which made entry smooth and stress-free. ​The tours have a dedicated line making clearing security and entering the Basilica easy and highly recommended ​for the information provided by the guides making the experience more memorable​. Allow at least ​60-90 minutes to fully take it in, and don’t rush. Whether you’re religious or not, this is a place that inspires reflection and wonder.​ You are welcome to sit and reflect in one of the pews or simply rest your feet. You can buy tickets to view Barcelona from the top or visit the basement for more history and the gift shop. Unlike any church or basilica you will see.

Very cool architecture! They still have a ton of work they are doing lot of scaffolding. If you want to go in get tickets weeks in advance no chance day of there are just way to many people! Had a ticket for tower but unfortunately it was to windy! Such an amazing place!

⸻ Sagrada Família is one of those places that feels unreal no matter how many photos you’ve seen before. During the day, the details of the architecture are incredible, and the sunlight through the stained glass fills the whole space with amazing colors. At night, the atmosphere changes completely. The lights make the basilica look almost magical, like a completely different place. It’s honestly mind-blowing to think how something so complex and beautiful could be designed and is still being built after more than a century. You can easily spend a long time just walking around, discovering new details in every corner. If you want to take great photos and enjoy the view without being surrounded by huge crowds, I definitely recommend coming after 10 pm. It’s much quieter, and you can really appreciate the beauty and scale of the building. An unforgettable experience and an absolute must-see in Barcelona.

my friend and i stayed in a private room - basic but good quality and quiet. hostel is in a busy area, great coffee and restaurants. we loved it. and special shout out to Noellia on reception who handled everything like a champ despite being rushed off her feet. would definitely book again.

Our experience booking a room forntwo people at Casa Gracia Barcelona Hostel was pretty bad. There were bedbugs in our bed and every night we slept there we were biten by these insects. We had bites on our ankles and other parts of our body. We reported this and reception did not help us nor we got the promised refund. We had to leave the room earlier than our booking as we could not continue sleeping on that bed. In addition we were sold a room that was advertised with a photo very different from the room they gave us. The photo looked great with a window and good view. The room we were given had a small window facing without a view. The corridor leading to the eating area smell like sewer. The room was not cleaned daily. It was not inspected nor cleaned when we reported the bed bugs. They denied the bedbugs despite us showing photos of the insects and the bites.

One of the Worst Hotels I’ve Ever Stayed In Aside from the hotel’s location, everything else was a disappointment. The bathroom in our room was extremely small — the sink was so tiny that washing both hands at the same time was a struggle. There was also no toilet brush, so after using the toilet there was no way to clean it, which was very uncomfortable. Worst of all, there was a constant sewage smell coming from the drains. Every evening when we returned, the room was filled with an unbearable odor. We stayed for 4 nights, and during most of our stay, both elevators were out of service. We had to walk up to the 5th floor every day. The room itself was very small with barely any space to move around. If you travel with a large suitcase, I would not recommend this place at all, as there is no room to open it comfortably. Although we booked a double room, it was actually two single beds pushed together, which made it uncomfortable for two people. Breakfast was limited in variety, which we could overlook considering the price, but the real issue was freshness — the boiled eggs and cheese tasted spoiled from being left out too long. Overall, unless you are on a very tight budget and staying only 1–2 nights (and preferably young and not bothered by discomfort), I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

I’m usually quite lenient when giving reviews, but this hotel was unfortunately not it. The lift was out of service for 3 out of our 4 nights, the room was not cleaned after the first night and toiletries were not replenished unless requested. Service was poor too. I think this is the only hotel I've been in where the reception staff rarely greeted or acknowledged people. Also, the room itself did not match the photos. Overall, a disappointing stay. The only good thing is the location.

When we got to the room there were no basic amenities whatsoever. No shampoo, no soap, nothing. When we asked for them it took them 2 hours to finally get some and then we had an issue with the AC. It is not working, so we demanded another room, or they fix it. They replied saying that they won’t provide us a different room and they won’t reimburse us or give a discount for it. They demanded that we check out first then wait to see if there is another empty room then they can give us the other room IF a room becomes free. Extremely unprofessional and genuinely the worst hotel stay I ever had.

Unfortunately, a very disappointing experience. My flight was cancelled due to bad weather, completely beyond my control, and I asked the hotel for some flexibility — either a refund with penalty or at least a voucher to reschedule my stay. Their answer was a flat refusal, with no understanding or consideration for the situation. In times like these, a little empathy and flexibility would make all the difference. Sadly, I won’t be returning or recommending this place.

Casa Gracia hostel, is one of its kinds very hygiene and welcoming staffs. The environment is cozy near to all kind of transportation services bus, train and various metro. I stayed 4 night there before i finally moved to my apartment in Eixample area. Praise to Ivonne and Eringer for their great service.

For the price they offer there isn’t really anything to complain. People who aren’t happy here may rather choose to spend €60 staying in a dorm in the city on weekends The room is spacious and well ventilated, heaters worked great, the bathroom situated in the room had plenty of space as well. There aren’t many food options in the vicinity so I chose to eat at the hostel, and they have pretty good deals, €9 for a full pizza and drink. There are a few hiking trails nearby, I was able to hike to Tibidabo from the hostel in less than 2 hours. It’s on a train line as well so it’s very easy to go into the city and back There isn’t much of an atmosphere here, it’s not that kind of hostel. But again, it’s factored into the cost. Taking a star away because the wifi didn’t work, so went without internet for the duration of my stay

I came to barcelona for 2 days as im traveling europe. I needed a place to stay for 1 night last minute and cheep I ended up on this place. For less then €20 it's good. Depending on what hostel you get too. I got the 10 one with private bathroom. There was only 3 of us that night. But genuinely would recommend if your traveling solo

Avoid this place at all costs, specially if you are a solo female traveller. I am not the type of person to complain. I’ve been travelling for some time, I’ve stayed in a bunch of hostels and have had make experiences and I consider myself a very flexible person. But this is just something out of a horror movie. To begin, the location is terrible. You have to go up a very steep hill for 15 minutes that was not mentioned. If you have a car you are all good, but if you are a backpacker like me it’s gonna be hell. After that, the rooms, the beds are fine but the bathroom is disgusting. I don’t know when was the last time the shower was cleaned and I do not want to know. Also, you have one toilet that is in the shower for the whole room of ten, very annoying to share. The buffet? LIES. It is not a buffet, you do not serve yourself the quantity you want to eat, the staff does. And the food is mediocre. Moist bread, fruit going bad and a sad slice of ham and cheese is what you get there. And you have no other choice because the hostel is in the middle of nowhere. Did I mention the wild boars roaming around? One bad move and you could be badly injured. Also, for the girls travelling: There are a bunch of workers actively trying to hit on you and are very pushy, they will make you feel very unsafe. I’ve seen a lot of other reviews of girls who had the same experiences and I am baffled that this situation continues to happen in the hostel. To end things, an item of mine in the room disappeared and it is very unlikely another guest took it. The staff was unhelpful with that and it just made my stay at this place completely unsatisfactory. Don’t come here, pay a bit more to be in the city, the cheap rooms are not worth it.

This hostel was one of the worst experiences we’ve had. After a 7 hour flight we go to check in at 2:30pm (check-in starts at 2) and we are met with condescending attitude claiming we have only one reservation (we had 2). Afterwards, we are promptly told to leave our stuff and get out as they apperently were not done cleaning our rooms, no instructions regarding the hostel itself (ex. how to open the gate leading to it) and rushed out by the receptionist who doesn’t even let my friend finish changing before she is banging down the door and asking us “where are you going? go now?” and literally pushing us out the door. The hostel has a common area where we could’ve stayed, we didn’t even need to stay in our rooms but instead we were forced out without any knowledge of where we were or where to go. Once we finished wandering around the city, we returned only to not be able to open the gate as we were not told how to. The next morning, we were awakened by screaming and stomping in the halls and the door to the hostel swung open (no knocking) and workers burst into our rooms to “clean” but mostly to harass the other girl in our hostel because it was almost 10am and she needed to check-out. They proceeded to yell in her face and refused to close the door and give privacy so my friend could change. I legitimately had to beg them to leave so we had an ounce of privacy but they continued to barge in and out of the room even for the 20 minutes the door was closed. The entire stay, they acted as though we were not paying customers and they were providing us a service by letting us stay. This hostel is fine but the service is abysmal and I would not suggest staying here unless it is a last resort.

A hostel on top of the Barcelona mountains, I am not joking 😅. If you miss the last train (11pm) to the mountain. You will have to take a taxi and that can be hard to find. I was lucky to have met a kind taxi driver that drove me to the mountain. I waved after he passed me by and decided to drive back to help me out. Stupid me, thought I could walk up the mountain. If you can't get a taxi the llast resort would have been to wait for the train station to open at 5am. They give you bed sheets and towels but no soap. So you have to bring your own. Washing machine is the cheapest I have used at €5.50 but you have to download an app to use it. Breakfast is €5 and is on the small side. Staff are professional but can be a little cold, depending on who you are speaking to. But they will resolve all queries.

Great quiet location up in the hills of Barcelona only 5mins from metro. I cycled there hostel staff super friendly safe place to store bike nice hot showers and good beds. Restaurant open 24hrs I had pizza and beer. Breakfast was excellent for 5euros. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a hostel.

As of September 2025 NOT comfortable for SOLO FEMALE travelling. The lady in reception moved me from my booked four bed dorm mixed to an all female 8 bed dorm very kindly on her own accord but you can understand from that, that it was necessary. I arrived late and was walked up the hill by a middle aged man who claimed he worked there, talking to me through Google translate the entire way about hanging out later. I believe he was trying to be useful - asking to carry my backpack and bags - but in the context it was inappropriate. First reception was closed, he 'helped me' find the second one more up the hill but this did require following him more into what I could only see as forest and empty buildings. He must be working there on construction etc.this is of course not a problem itself but it should be noted for women going there alone. Simply, because location is in a woods on a hill, the amount of men hanging around in the night is unsafe if you are going alone, in my opinion. This is a budget hostel and the rooms were good, clean and stayed chill in a hot night, the service kind and the food basic. If you need to save money just be prepared to brace yourself for the majority male guests/workers on premises.

such a great hostel!! the staff are all young volunteers and they do their best to be supportive, outgoing in all the events and you can see them always have a blast (which is always fun to see). genuinely they have done a really great job in creating a good community. the rooms are clean, and the bed’s are comfortable. the actual activities themselves are alright, but for being free they are a great start to meet people. love free dinner!

I had a great stay here and enjoyed many benefits during my time. The staff are all very friendly and always do their best to help guests enjoy different activities. Every evening they even cook dinner, and during the drinking games they provide a fair amount of free drinks. In particular, an employee named Leo helped a lot — whether it was preparing food or guiding us when we had to move as a group. For example, when we traveled about 30 minutes by subway, he showed great leadership and made sure nobody was left behind and that we all arrived safely. Overall, this hostel gave me many fun memories. The value for money is excellent — you get much more than what you pay for. Highly recommended!

I had such a great stay at Onefam Les Corts! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the terrace was great to chill around in the sun and the atmosphere of the whole hostel was amazing. Flo was awesome – a great party leader who made the night super fun! The dinner was tasty and she managed the whole evening really well:) Definitely recommend this hostel if you want a good mix of chill vibes and fun nights!

Great service by the staff at the hostel. Available to help any time. And they organise social events each night, so you’ll definitely get to socialise and they managed things pretty well. Although the hostel is not at the city centre though you might need to travel a bit, but everything is well connected

This was my first time staying at a hostel in a residential area, and I really enjoyed it! The location is super convenient—just about a 5-minute walk to the subway, and there’s even a direct train from the airport. The neighborhood has lots of great restaurants, supermarkets, and cozy cafés. The staff were so kind and helpful, and everything, from the room to the shared spaces, was spotless. I’d definitely recommend this hostel!

The location is not the best as it’s right next to Camp Nou. On the bright side, the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The kitchen is well equipped, with several refrigerators and dining areas, which is very convenient. However, the main downside is the cleanliness: the floors in the rooms and the showers are not cleaned frequently enough, and the trash bins could be emptied more regularly

It was my first time in a hostel, so i was a bit scared. But after my arrival, i found it very comfy, since the workers are all so nice and helped me out with my concerns! I loved the everyday free dinner with other travelers and how the vibe made you feel like being part of the family~ I definitely would love to come back to this hostel, it's great!

Good location, close to a metro station, in a nice period building with high ceilings. Clean with everything one might need during their stay in Barcelona. No lockers in rooms but there are small ones at the reception where one can keep their valuables (no padlock needed). They offer laundry service. Kitchen on the premises. Helpful staff. The mattresses are a bit on the soft side and thin. I would definitely go back. Not a party hostel (which is good).

Really nice cosy hostel, 8bed dorm was super spacious with a little balcony. Common areas always had enough space. Not a party hostel but easy to meet people and get chatting! The bathrooms are clean and pretty nice with good water pressure. Kitchen with free food is amazing, you can cook eggs bread croissants etc and there's always a pot of coffee with different milk options and juice. Good range of spices too. The employees are really friendly. Location is great, central and easy to get around and a cute trendy queer neighbourhood with lots of art galleries. I'd definitely stay again! I did get stuck in the elevator haha but they got me out relatively quickly 😅 and it's nice to even have an elevator.

It was a perfect experience! This was my first time staying at a hostel, and it definitely won’t be the last. The warm welcome and well-organized environment made me feel comfortable right away. I’ll be adding this to my list of favorite places to stay for future visits to Barcelona.

Staff were so friendly and helpful. Real old fashioned hostel, scruffy but clean, plenty of facilities, nice old building and good vibes. I had my teenager with me so was not in full card games and singalongs mode, but I imagine a lot of friendships have started in the homely living areas. I think the beds have been recently upgraded based on other reviews, our mattresses were super luxurious and most comfortable of anywhere I’ve stayed for a long time. Thanks for a great welcome Fabrizzios and for the rocket fuel coffee on our early morning 💪🤎

Great experience, the staff was the most helpful, genuine and cool people that I met. Plus the hostel is cozy and they have lots of food😋 everything was clean and comfortable. Thanks guys

Fabrizzio´s Petit is located in an old apartment with balcony to the inner court. The apartment has very high ceilings and radiates generosity and quality, just as the crew around Fabrizzio does. In the morning there was cake for everyone, very delicious, a Brasilian receipe I heard. I was also allowed, even without paying anything, to spend the afternoon on the balcony to wait for my train. The balcony is a special treat. You can stay there, observe the inhabitants of the houses around you, enjoy the breeze and feel at home.

Perfect location, very clean place, free food and drinks, employees very nice and friendly. Bathroom are alway cleaned too; very comfortable place and during summer AC works well. Super suggest; if I’ll ever come back to Barcellona I would gladly stay here again ! Thanks for all Fabrizzio’staff!

Independent and friendly hostel. Very good location, clean facilities, free coffee and biscuits. Nice restaurants less than 5 mins walks. We had a situation with one of the guests and they were very quick in addressing it. I definitely recommend. A nice change from the bigger not so personal hostels in the area.

Worden absolutely lovely place to stay, only five minutes from Barcelona Sants railway station and Metro stop. This hostel takes quiet area seriously: no talking at all in the dorms at no time. Very comfortable beds, big dark full curtains for privacy; they offer coffee tea and cookies all the time, have a relaxing sitting room and a swimming pool. Louis and Andrea are two very sweet people who love playing host! Highly recommended, will definitely stay arrogant in the future.

Staff helpful and very friendly. Great common spaces. Beds are comfy with curtains and plenty of space for your belongings. Very strict no talking in rooms which is great for peaceful sleep anytime of day. Large and very nice common areas. Location very close to the big train station. Free tea, coffee, juice and biscuits. They have thought of everything.

Based on the good reviews, I decided to venture outside my comfort zone and book in the 14-person dorm. . It was a great choice! The staff was welcoming and the dorm was quiet, with excellent bathrooms and cleanliness. There was a lovely outdoor area and a nice relaxation room. Free tea and coffee facilities and an excellent kitchen. And all of that just a 5-minute walk from Barcelona Sants train station.

Everything was really well organized, the rooms were clean, and there were free drinks, coffee, and cookies available all the time. The place was very quiet and relaxing. Louis and Andrea were incredibly kind and helpful, and you immediately feel welcome here. I’d definitely stay here again!😊

Just got back from Ten To Go Hostel in Barcelona and I couldn't be happier! 🌟 The location is absolutely perfect, right in the heart of the city. The WiFi was super fast, which made it easy to plan my adventures. The common spaces were cozy and inviting, perfect for meeting fellow travelers. Plus, everything was spotless! Highly recommend this place! 🏨✨

I always thought that a hostel is a cheap option and no comfort. Stayed here for two night and I might say this is an amazing place! Friendly staff that helps you out, they even have different adapters if you came from UK, for example(no hotel I stayed in previously ever had that!). The hostel has a pool, lovely lounge zone and coffee machine that does not only make coffee, but also hot chocolate! They also have tea, fridges(just make sure you ask for the spot in the fridge on reception), microwaves, and mini kitchen stove, so you can cook. Toilets are nice and clean, there is even a bathroom for women and disabled people only that men can not access(they are told so in the reception. The amount of kitchen furniture is insane, they have cheese grater, lemon squeezer, pans and pots, potato peeler and corkscrew! The interior is very comfy… when you are checking out you are allowed to stay and use the same amenities while you are inside. The location of the hostel is awesome! The supermarkets, restaurants, subway: everything you need is 10 minutes walk! Overall, highly recommend it! Just be aware they do not have separate rooms for women. It’s men and women in the same dorm, but each bed has a curtain you can close so nobody can see you:)

Made my stay in Barcelona so much better! Staff were super helpful before and during the trip. They responded to emails promptly, even helped me figure out transfer from the airport to the hostel. Location is smack bang in the centre of the city, with easy access to all transport services. I know where I’m staying when I visit the city again!

i really enjoyed my stay here. the staff was really friendly, i made a lot of tea in the open kitchen using the tea available there. the room was clean, and when i asked for an extra pillow i received one, no problem. the bathroom as well, very clean and proper showers. it's true that there is a slight sewer smell, but the building is old and i'm not sure the hostel can be faulted for that. i visited in the end of september so it was not very hot, but i assume in the summer it gets much hotter in there and i haven't spotted a proper air conditioner in my room. but really, a great stay, beautiful, quiet place and positioned very well. i was travelling alone and felt very safe here

This was my first time visiting Barcelona, and I was traveling alone. I was honestly nervous about staying in a shared room with people I didn’t know but I can confidently say that choosing Primavera Hostel was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and I felt safe and comfortable throughout my stay. The rooms are clean and private, and even the shared bathrooms are spotless and very well maintained. The kitchen is super cozy you can cook your own meals or enjoy a lovely breakfast for just €4. The whole experience went far beyond my expectations. As a lovely surprise, they even gifted me a discount code for my next visit. I’m so grateful thank you so much to the amazing team at Primavera Hostel. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We enjoyed our time here! We selected the private room and bath and spent a total of 8 nights and found it welcoming! My only complaint is that the bedding wasn't very comfortable. The pillows seemed like throw pillows rather than pillows meant for sleeping. Thankfully we brought our own! I'd recommend you do too. And the blanket provided was more like a slightly thicker sheet than a blanket. We went during the last week of September, and it definitely got chilly some nights. I asked for additional blankets and was given two small throw blankets, which didn't make a huge difference. I think this is something that could be improved! But otherwise, the stay was great. The kitchen is spacious and has two separate stoves, providing ample room for cooking. There is a 4 euro breakfast served every morning. If you're vegan or vegetarian, options are a little limited but it still makes for an affordable meal. The location is also great! The main tourist attractions are very walkable, with most being within 30 minutes.

Had an amazing eight day stay at this hostel. The staff were amazing! The hostel is super cute. The rooms have small balconies, great for enjoying the evenings with a glass of wine. The hostel has a beautiful kitchen with an assortment of food set up for breakfast each morning for only 4 euro. If you book a room that doesn’t have a bathroom, there are several other bathrooms with nice showers for guests to use. Overall we had an amazing stay! I would recommend bringing your own pillow if your are picky about that kind of thing like I am. There are an assortment of throw pillows provided but the regular pillows for sleeping are a bit small.

Due to a flight postponement I needed somewhere for an extra night. This place came up and I am pleased that it did. Nice and central in a lovely district, it is surrounded by great eateries and coffe bars. The hostel itself offers a lovely relaxing common area that almost feels like you are at home rather than in a hotel. The room I had was good for the night and had an ensuite bathroom. No Aircon but luckily a silent running ceiling fan did it's job in keeping the room comfortable.

The only positive thing I can say about the accommodation is that it is very centrally located, the bed is reasonably comfortable, and the (shared) bathroom facilities are good. Unfortunately, the negative comments take a little longer: A) The accommodation did not have air conditioning (yes, I could have noticed this when booking, but in Barcelona it didn't even occur to me that anyone would rent out rooms without AC) – after a few hours of absence, the air in the room was terrible. B) An additional sliding door in front of the balcony door meant that ventilation in my room was limited, which made it much more difficult to get rid of the stale air. The climatic conditions on the first night were so miserable that, after a sleepless night, I had to move to another hotel for another warm (not hot, 22 degrees) night. C) If you had to go to the bathroom at night, the way to the bathroom was brightly lit (why?). D) The staff were not particularly interested. When I arrived, I was given a brief tour of the hostel (polite, but not friendly), after which I was ignored by the staff, who were actually always present. E) Due to the central location, there is of course a lot of traffic outside the window. You have to leave half the balcony door open, otherwise you'll suffocate. There was a street lamp right outside my window. So you shouldn't arrive without earplugs and a sleep mask F) NO AIR CONDITIONING

It is far from Sants. But you can catch metro or a bus but I walked. The rooms were a bit small but definitely adjustable. Service was amazing l. Staff were friendly and helped in every way. Breakfast was nice. They provided variety in everything.

The hostel was alright. The staff were friendly, and the bed was clean. However, the toilets were not maintained the best. The lock for the female shower room is broken and there is no individual locks for the shower cubicles itself so there is no privacy. The showers are also really small which means there was not much room to put belongings or hang up a towel.

Everything was really cute and felt really good to be there. They offer filtered water and shsmpoo!

The service was terrible. The person working the night shift was clearly intoxicated and showed a complete lack of manners. I definitely would not recommend this place.

The location is perfect and the people at the counter were always present and helpful. Though the place needs a bit of fixing: a leakage at the bathroom sink, disproportionate mattress and very flat pillow. They also provide free earplugs or bring some, you will need it. Otherwise, free breakfast there is great and the terrace is perfect to chill at in the morning. And the living room is very cosy. The lady who works there from Thursday to Saturday is extremely nice! I wish her all the best. :)

Very smelly/stinky room and toilets. No window open for ventilation.

It's so much inside and they do not maintain boys & girls separately. I was disappointed after entering the room.

This place was an absolute gem and far exceeded my expectations. While it was a little on the pricey side, the quality of the facilities and the overall experience made it well worth it. The social events were a major highlight- team-cooked dinners followed by bar crawls or pub outings made it easy to meet people and have a great time. The staff really made the experience, bringing great energy and making everyone feel welcome. It was genuinely fun getting to know them. The superstar staff I met during my stay were Dora, John, Federico, Eric, Nico , Marie, Maud, Lucas and Morad. The location is spot-on-right in the heart of Barcelona, with easy access to everything by foot or public transport. Plus, there are plenty of cafes and supermarkets nearby to help keep things affordable. Awesome vibe, top-notch experience. Highly recommend!

360 Hostel Borne offers a prime location and a strong social atmosphere, making it a good choice for short-term city trips focused on meeting other travelers. However, its pricing and some practical inconveniences make it less ideal for longer stays or those prioritizing comfort and quiet. The Good: *Excellent Location: The hostel boasts a fantastic location, being very close to major attractions like Arc de Triomf and Parc de la Ciutadella. It's also incredibly convenient for public transport, with the Arc de Triomf and Urquinaona metro stations nearby. Plaça de Catalunya is a manageable 10-15 minute walk, and the nearest beach is around 30 minutes away on foot. *Social Atmosphere with Dinner: The complimentary dinner offered every night at 21:00 (in conjunction with 360 Hostel Centro) is a significant highlight. It provides an excellent opportunity to meet and connect with fellow travelers, fostering a communal spirit. *Aesthetically Pleasing Hallway: The beautiful hallway leading to the hostel entrance adds a touch of charm upon arrival. *Good Facilities: The hostel provides ample shared facilities, including 3 showers and 1 large handicap-accessible shower room, along with similar provisions for toilets. The presence of a terrace is a nice bonus for relaxation. The Bad: *Inconvenient Card Access: The constant need for your key card to enter your room, even for quick trips to the toilet or fridge, becomes very annoying very quickly. This lack of seamless access impacts daily convenience. *Noise Disturbances: Noise is a significant issue. Guests can frequently hear sounds like water running from other rooms, even at random times during the day and night. The persistent buzzing sound of the main entrance buzzer is also audible in the rooms, leading to disrupted sleep, especially at night. *High Price for a Hostel: The pricing structure is a major drawback. The cost for a single bed in a 6-person dorm room is considered quite high for a hostel. Furthermore, if opting for a single room, the price can exceed that of 4- to 5-star hotels in the vicinity, which offer a significantly higher level of comfort and amenities (e.g., Hotel REC is reportedly €40 less per night, even with breakfast). This makes the hostel's value proposition questionable for private room stays. Practical Information: *Building Entry: There's a buzzer system for entering the building from the street, which needs to be pressed each time. However, the hostel's internal door is always open. *Shared Facilities: As noted, there are 3 standard showers and 1 large shower room for people with handicaps, along with corresponding toilet facilities. *Terrace & Kitchen Hours: The terrace closes at 22:00 (10 PM) to minimize noise for neighbors, and some rooms have direct access to it. The kitchen "closes" for cooking after a certain hour, but guests are still welcome to sit and socialize there. Recommendation: This hostel is well-suited for short-term city trippers to Barcelona who are on a budget (for dorms) and prioritize meeting new people and a central location. The communal dinners are a definite plus for fostering connections. However, if you are planning a longer stay in Barcelona (e.g., for a week-long summer school or similar activities) and value comfort, quiet, and better value for money, a traditional hotel would likely be a more suitable and potentially more affordable option, even when considering the higher star ratings of nearby hotels.

I met some great people both visiting the hostel and working there. The space was always kept clean and secured. There are a lot of accommodations included like the family dinners, kitchen, beautiful patio, and perfect location for exploring Barcelona. Shout out to the workers Erik and Dora for being super cool and making it a safe and friendly place!

This is the best hostel i’ve been in. Amazing staff, location is perfect and it feels cozy inside. Great plus for free dinners every night. 100% recommended, if i am back in Barcelona i will definitely come back here to stay.

It’s a mixed room (female and male). Toilet and bathroom also is for common, which I wasn’t so comfortable with it. Nice pantry and has a living room but closing at 11pm. I enjoyed dinner time, it’s free and everyone is helping to prepare the food.The service was very good, they help me with luggage to bring downstairs during check out., and while waiting for a cab the land lord arrived and helped me hailed a cab and carried my luggage to the trunk.perfect location to most tourist spots and metro.

Unforgiving and opportunistic I booked by mistake and contacted the hotel within seconds to cancel. The stay is still weeks away and in high season, yet they refused every request — even when I offered to pay for just one night instead of seven. The staff was polite, but the manager showed zero flexibility. Felt like they were more interested in keeping the full payment than treating customers fairly.

Well positioned accessible hostal thats clean and well run. They have an evening meal included in the room fee which was not available the night l was there. Martin, at the reception was easy to communicate with and very helpful.

It is the hostel with the most group activities i have ever seen! Pretty good activities too! Every night people cook dinner together. Dinners are pretty decent and they are included in the price. We also went to play beach volleyball all together which was also quite nice. All the receptionist/volunteers are so helpful and friendly. They are pretty chill, not stressed about small things at all. I stayed in 6 bed dorm. The airconditioner was on all the time but you could ask them to change the temperature which is quite nice especially because it was cold at night. Also great location. The only thing i would wish them to have curtains for beds. Even the top beds are on the eye level so no privacy at all. But that’s an issue in many hostels i guess..

Room: clean, bed was particularly comfortable. Toilets & Showers: clean. Good water pressure. Lockers: free Staff: chill, 24 hours Social Atmosphere: yes, mostly through free dinner. Day activities and pub crawl didn’t consistently get much people. Crowd skewed older. Location: perfectly central, close walk to metro station. Tips: - Taking the R trains is free with Interrail. - Pub crawl is $20 paid once your entire stay, but you can enter the top clubs (Shôko, Opium, Pacha) for free with Shaz guest list. - The tapas and Mexican dinners seem to run out before everyone gets a portion, so consider a plan B on those nights Overall: comfortable and affordable. Would return for the rate of around $25 a night.

Staying at 360 Hostel was an incredible experience, and I'd highly recommend it, especially for solo travelers. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how clean everything was. The hostel also had a great variety of activities, making it easy to meet new people and have a fantastic time. It truly felt like a home away from home.

Most of the reviews I read before were accurate. I stayed a week room 4 bed 3 top bunk. Best things are the staff, location and free dinners. Everything was clean and great hot powerful showers. Only 1 sink upstairs so that was a bit frustrating. Good kitchen and 24 HR reception. The only negatives were unfortunately 2 big ones if you stay in room 4 only. The door lock is hard to work so every time someone comes in they wake everyone. Been a problem 2 years and the owners don't fix. Also metal bunks that creek so much every time you turn in the bed and no privacy sheet or power for phones in the bed. This is pretty basic in every hostel pretty much. We had 2 fans and it was the end of September. No sign of air con so it must be pretty awful in the summer. They have another hostel nearby which I visited and it looked much nicer. 360 Borne. Can't comment on facilities. Personally if I came back I would choose the other hostel, just for the feel. This is clean and functional but not a hostel vibe and I have stayed in loads. Hope that helps but for a few days avoiding room 4 you will probably find it fine and the free dinners are actually really good so a big plus. If they sorted the bunks, power, air con and door it would be super good.

It was the worst hostel I’ve ever stayed in. I can’t even understand how this place has a 4.3 rating. They turned a room without even a window into a ten-bed dorm. The beds and lockers are old. When people cook in the evenings, the smell lingers in the room. The bathroom is not even a proper bathroom. The toilet doors are extremely old. The location is overrated, but it was okay. Cleanliness was just as it should be, nothing more.

Had a great time here! Isabella at reception was really friendly and had a great time on the pub crawls hosted by Christina and Morad, you get a special band which allows you to go on multiple pub crawls during your stay. I also enjoyed the walking tour as well, it was great to see all the important sights of Barcelona, and the host (I believe the host was called Erki?) was super informative. Would really recommend, thank you for having me!

This is a warning to all future travelers: do not stay here. This was, without a doubt, the worst hostel I have ever stayed in. The photos on the website are misleading. BED BUGS: On my third morning, I found a live bed bug on my bed. This is an extreme health and safety issue that should not be taken lightly. It's especially frustrating to discover this is a recurring problem based on other reviews. NO A/C: The air conditioning was completely broken, despite being listed as a room amenity. The room was scorching hot, and the staff's unhelpful response and a fan did nothing to cool it down. It's dishonest to advertise A/C when it's not working. Filthy and Broken Facilities: The shower drains were blocked, causing water to flood the floor. Multiple power outlets were not working. A light in my room was broken. The toilets were disgusting and smelled like a public restroom. The "social events" seem to be a distraction from the fact that this hostel is poorly maintained and lacks basic sanitation. Save yourself the trouble and the risk of bringing bed bugs home.

The front desk clerk was very polite and friendly. He showed us around. There is always free coffee and pastries in the kitchen. The bed is comfortable. The price is very good. Great location. Since it was Thursday night, we were offered free pizza. We made our own together. We talked a lot while eating it. I had a great time. I made new friends. It really makes you feel at home.

In one word : shame. We booked 4 nights in this hostel, we were two. Soon enough, I realized there were bedbugs in my bed. I told it to the staff and they didn’t seem surprised, but they changed us of room. I have around 60 bites on all my body AND my face. It’s itching a lot and hi can see it easily on my whole body. I have a video of the bedbugs on the bed and the pharmacist confirmed it was that. I bought a treatment (30€) and the laundry for all our stuff (15€). I can’t work during some days because i need a clean body for my job. Time to check out : i ask for refund or just a commercial gesture. The answer is no. Why ? Because we have changed room during the stay… mhhh that’s just normal no ? After 1h of negotiations with the staff, they ended up giving me 35€, probably because they understood that I wouldn't leave without it. The manager "didn't answer", supposedly, easy to jump ship when there's a problem. Good manager !!! Anyway, trust me and choose an other hostel. Buba house, if you see that, shame on you, really. Scam students who worked hard for pay 4 days of holidays, good mentality. Not representative of your beautiful country/peoples.

Stayed with a friend in a 6-bed dorm. The staff were very nice, and the kitchen was well-equipped. The location is a gem – right in the center! Prices were quite reasonable too. However, there were some issues: the room was extremely stuffy, with poor ventilation and no air conditioning. The fan provided didn’t help much, making it hard to sleep at night and waking up with a headache in the morning. The shower was unpleasantly dirty, and the elevator wasn’t working (or was unreliable). We were told not to use it due to the risk of getting stuck, so we had to carry our heavy suitcases up the stairs.

My recent one-night stay at this hostel was quite disappointing. The room's cleanliness was below expectations, and it was unpleasantly hot with insufficient ventilation. Attempts to cool down by opening the window were thwarted by a constant, loud noise from an external device, making sleep almost impossible. Adding to the disturbance, other guests created a lot of noise in the hallways throughout the early morning hours. A significant point of frustration was the reception staff's inability to speak or even understand Catalan, which felt quite surprising and inconvenient for a business located in Barcelona. To make things worse, they did not accept card payments — I was forced to pay in cash, which is quite astonishing in 2025. This added yet another layer of inconvenience to an already disappointing experience

The room and shared bathrooms are clean. There was no natural ventilation in the bedroom, but worked fine. The traditional elevator is old but working, just no indication which floor was the Buba House. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.

Do not book over the summer. There is no AC in the rooms, just a tower fan that cannot do the job beyond create a breeze to one of the beds. I spent 8h sweating in a room without sleeping.

HOT!!!! I wanted to start by emphasising how HOT it was in this room. you where provided with a wall plugged fan tower but this did not reach the top bunk at all and we had to move the mattress to the floor, even like us you spend a small time in the room it’s still very hard to sleep. The bathrooms were extremely nice freshly renovated with 2 dumper shower heads. The location was amazing and you felt safe where we were and the staff were welcoming and lovely. I would personally look elsewhere a shared dorm would be much nicer then this in my opinion

The Positive The hostel was clean, receptionist very helpful, good showers nicely decorated. A Gym and a nice lounge area in basement Negative There are 20 women to each form, 2 showers 2 toilets per floor,very noisy at night ppl coming and going one girl playing music while I was trying to sleep. I guess it just didn’t suit me but would be perfect for Someone else.. I stayed just one night was supposed to be for four but I think I will stick to hotels.. need my sleep

I do not recommend staying at this hostel. My sister and another guest had their wallets stolen inside the property, losing all their important belongings. This was an extremely stressful and disappointing experience during our trip. The security was clearly insufficient, and the staff did not provide effective help to solve the issue. Guests should be very careful and keep all valuables with them at all time

I stayed in 3 other hostels while in Spain and this was the worst one. The showers have no locks which is ridiculous. Despite being a female-only hostel, I think locks on shower doors are a basic need. The shower and sink drains are clogged with hair, making me wonder how often the bathrooms are cleaned. Only 2 showers for the whole floor of over 20 people is just sad. On top of that, the bins in the kitchen are full to the brim. Reception is not 24-hours so if you have a problem during the night you will not be able to get help. The lockers are too small, probably meant for just personal belongings. Mattress was uncomfortable and you can tell it’s old. Each floor of this hostel is essentially a room so it’s really packed. The room has a keypad lock which is loud when in use and wakes people up esp if your bed is in front of the door. Other guests were noisy and kept talking all night - reception seems to not take noise complaints seriously. Quiet hours is just for show. Worst part was my sleep was interrupted by a group of girls waking me up, informing me there was a man in the dorm. It created a commotion that just made this place a whole lot worse. Avoid this hostel at all cost if you are in Barcelona. For the same price you can stay at a much better hostel in a more central location.

The staff was friendly and check-in was smooth. The beds had curtains for privacy, and the hostel was generally clean and close to a metro station, though not very central. However, the showers leaked water all over the bathroom floors on multiple levels, and staff didn’t handle the issue well. The kitchen was usable but overcrowded and not ideal for storing food. Noise at night was also an issue—earplugs and a sleeping mask are a must. Overall, it’s okay for a short stay if you're prepared for a few inconveniences.

This was one of the best hostels I ever stayed at! I immediatly felt comfortable here, it is super clean, there are curtains at the bed(and charger point and light) and there is nice airconditioning everywhere. You have a space to prepare your food, get some free tea, and store your stuff in the fridge. Also, there are so many nice people here! All the people in my room were very respectful at night as well, keeping quiet for the people that were trying to sleep. The only teeny tiny downsides where that the wifi inside the room wasn't always the best(but in the common areas everything works perfectly), the pillow was a little flat, and the cute activities that were planned were not really excecuted well. Like for instance the cooking class: they put fish and chips on the table and that was it haha But honestly I have nothing to complain about it was so nice to stay here and I will defenitley come back one day :)

Very welcoming staff, amazing facilities in the property, great energy from everyone. They are very organized and it felt very safe and clean. Location is convenient because it’s right across from the metro station

If u are in solo trip this can be ur first choice. Staffs are very welcomed and other tenants are very nice. The most important is the location is very good with 2min walking to the nearest subway station.

Very clean, the kitchen is well equipped. The only thing is that the WiFi doesn’t work well in all the places

The stay at Born Barcelona Hostel was amazingly awesome. The only private room, so do book early. The location in Le Born area is surprisingly full of eateries, shops and close to one train station Arc De Triomf. In fact we were surprised there’s lots of chinese food option, Spanish tapas places and a big Chinese super market just opposite. The hostel is located in an old building. Don't worry there’s a lift. Interior is very clean, well-maintained and friendly staff! Well equipped kitchen, nicely decorated common area. Plenty of super clean bathrooms! Central AC , our room tend to get hot after a well in the night, maybe it’s controlled. Overall still a great place to stay!

Octavio is the best. The people who stay and work here are so friendly. The bathrooms are clean! The location makes for gorgeous, life-changing walks. However, Octavio’s service was so amazing I booked another night because of it. I would stay here again

Great hostel, clean, friendly staff, well located, well equipped kitchen, everything new and functioning. Free luggage storage. Beautiful terrace and quiet.. recommended

Great hostel experience. I would recommend this hostel over anything. Clean and organized. It’s pretty in the inside and it has a great location. Their staff is very friendly and helpful. I’m would stay here again without a doubt

very good location! Like stay at a family very comfortable apartment, big and clean! Access to metro or train or bus Termin just in a few minutes! I will come here again! Only the WiFi is not strong, only in the kitchen or living room available. One problem also at night there is noisy because of the metro and train under us.

spacious hostel, comfortable mattress, good shower and nice people running it. only a ten min walk to plaza de cataluña, great location. they have laundry service available, even though I'm not sure if they have a dryer. the only thing I'd add is curtains on the beds for shared bedrooms for a little more privacy (maybe they already do and I didn't book that room!) would come back!

Pros: - good location near metro and bus stops, grocery marts, and eateries - friendly staff, shoutout to Max and Hannah who I interacted with the most during my stay - balanced with social events almost every day, but these usually take place outside the hostel, so it remains quiet in the building itself for people who prefer a more chill vibe. - clean facilities and rooms. nice large lounge and terrace. - nice large lockable drawers for storage in the mixed rooms Cons: - power points in the rooms are sparse or not at convenient locations - the website says this hostel has a laundry service, however when I was there, a cleaning staff told me the on-site laundry room was not for guests' use. Another staff told me they had not laundry facility on site and directed me to a nearby laundromat. Yet the stickers on the mirror in the room says they have laundry (see photo). This misleading information on their website and in the rooms itself should be updated if there is no on-site laundry for guests to use.

This is my favorite hostel I'd ever visited. In fact, I liked it so much that after my initial visit during Sonar, I came back again the next month. Piulet Hostel is perfect for a more mature traveler, someone who enjoys a peaceful oasis at the end of their day and appreciates a beautiful space. Whether you are working remotely or relaxing after a party, Piulet has a super cool common area indoors as well as a stunning courtyard. They will keep your luggage safe and let you hang out if your flight is later in the day. I'd like to thank Max for being super accommodating with me and moving my reservations last minute. Very happy I found this place, it's a hidden gem. I will be back!

Wonderful hostel! Stayed a week as a solo late twenties woman and felt quite at home. Everything is clean and clear, chill vibe. They have the sweetest (cleaning) staff, very personable :) the common rooms are rather quiet, i had a few nice conversations but people mostly do their own thing. the building is beautiful. i stayed in a mixed 6 person room. there are 2 big storage boxes under the bed, one was plenty pp, but i wish there was a small locker so i wouldn’t always have to lock the big one, but that’s minor. next time i might stay in a room with less people and snory men haha. generally felt very safe. great neighborhood!

Very nice place to stay. Super clean, the team take turns and keep it very well through the day and evening. Easy location to get around the city, nice restaurants, shops, metro or other public transports near by... nice beds and rooms setup.

Stayed here for three nights as a female solo traveller. Pros: - Amazing location, so many nice restaurants in the area - Friendly and helpful staff - Located inside a beautiful building, and they have a nice garden area - Each bed has a designated storage drawer, and the beds have curtains Cons: - Not very social (this could be a pro if you're looking for somewhere very quiet). I rarely saw people socializing in the common area. - The bathrooms are not very 'girl-friendly'. The showers are very small and poor lighting. In the female only bathroom, the showers wouldn't drain properly, so the floor would get flooded if you take a shower for more than 5 minutes. The mirrors are also quite high up, so I couldn't use them to do my makeup (I'm really short). Otherwise, the bathrooms were pretty clean. - At least while I was staying at Piulet, it seemed like the demographic of the guests skewed towards an older crowd. I would recommend choosing a female only dormitory if you are staying here, because during my stay, there were several older men in my mixed dormitory who snored so loudly that even earplugs + noise-cancelling headphones couldn't drown out the sound.

Very well located, the rooms are also confortable and clean! I have to point that the service and receptionist like Hanna make the hostel very welcome and make you feel like home! highly recommended :)

A very good hostel! The atmosphere and interior was superb. Not the least bit importantly it was clean. (The one con was that the space to shower and between bunks was a bit crammed)

Our accommodation was only a 15-minute walk from Camp Nou, so even though it wasn’t part of our original plan, we decided to visit. Unfortunately, our travel dates didn’t match any match days, but it was still worth walking around the stadium, and especially visiting the official Barça merchandise store. Some people say there’s no need to come all the way here because the Barça stores in central Barcelona are cheaper and easier to access. But I disagree. This place is HUGE. A three-story building with practically everything you could imagine. You can find classic replica kits like the 94–95 away jersey, as well as Nike Dri-FIT official sponsor versions. There’s a wide variety of caps, bags, and other accessories too. The staff were all very friendly. You can even see Messi’s autographed jersey and captain’s armband. If you want, you can buy the replicas, just for €2,999.99 and €1,999.99 respectively. There’s also a café and a nice rest area, so if you’re visiting Barcelona and a football fan, I highly recommend stopping by this legendary place. + You can find drinks with Barça packaging for more generous price at supermarkets in the city center.

When I went it was under construction so I didn't get the full experience. If you would like to go just make sure if these works are done or not yet. Actually the stadium is not that astonishing but if you are a Barcelona fan then obviously you'll get in love with 😅

Very nice experience. The interactive museum is well made, got to see many iconic items on display. Thought not very big still a nice tour especially if you like the FC Barcelona team. I highly recommend you book your tickets before arriving. Also, better to book an early time visit as the line and waiting time tend to get longer.

It was a good experience visiting the stadium and the museum, however since the stadium is under construction at the moment it wasn't possible to feel the right energy. Once everything is completed i believe that i will give it 5 stars!

I’ve seen some complaints, but honestly -the stadium’s under renovation, not a secret! What did you expect, a VIP tour of cranes and concrete? The real magic is the feeling of Barça itself , the history, trophies, jerseys, and spirit. The interactive legends show gave me chills, and Messi’s iconic celebration against Madrid next to his golden shoes nearly broke my heart . Paid under €100 for two tickets Worth every cent. Can’t wait for the reopening! Visca el Barça!

Was under construction, but still amazing, the trophy museum is a must too. Couldn’t go inside the stadium but there’s a construction viewpoint where you can see it from the outside but closer up. If visiting the stadium itself, get tickets of course, but for the trophy museum, you can purchase when you reach.

Really nice experience with the family. Good museum and nice opportunity to play against robo-goalkeeper. Easy to get tickets on arrival (Did not realize stadium was under construction…

Its pretty convenient location is its biggest strength. Rooms are pretty good but incredibly small. Walls are thin (and so are the floors), making it an absolute nightmare if there are many school trips. You can hear people jumping up and down both above and below you during unfortunate days. Breakfast buffet is pretty good. Although, the bacon run out very fast, and seem to never be replenished(?). I don't know why, everything else doesn't have this problem. A wide range of options is much appreciated, but the hot food section is insanely salty. The juice and coffee machines are pretty nice. The juice is a bit sweet but is as tasty as soda. Room service and staff are pretty solid too. Overall, a great place to stay (watch for any school trips, however).

Quality/price is fair. The view and the location is pretty good! We stayed at a 4 bedroom with private bathroom for us, the only negative point was the air conditioner, we need to talk with the reception to put on/off 24h/24h, and the shower doesn’t move, is “glued” to the wall.

Great location, excellent facilities and relaxed atmosphere but overall spoiled by extremely hot rooms. When we stayed, in mid October, the weather was sunny and warm, and the dorms got way too warm. Apparently the air conditioning is turned off at the beginning of October, whatever the actual weather. The desk staff were helpful, unlocking the window and bringing a fan, but even with these the room was unpleasantly warm. The desk staff were unable to turn the air conditioning back on and told me to email the management to ask, which I did and got no reply. So we had two nights of very poor sleep and a load of mosquito bites from the open window.

Our room was great, however the bathroom got a leak (quickly fixed). We therefore couldn’t use the bathroom for just a day. Only problem, the smell in this room was not bearable, the room being thus barely usable. Our stay was short so it wasn’t a major problem but this would be something to fix. We also couldn’t change room so we had to stay anyway in this room.

Worth the price, the location was great and room was decent. Only negative is that there is AC on 24/7 and you cannot modify it. The kitchen is okay but for that many people it can be difficult to make something during busy hours. Overall great experience though.

The rooms alongside the bedding were very stinky and smelled like sweat. The ceiling of the bathroom leaked a mysterious liquid into the shower at random times. The walls were super thin and many school children were in the halls which you could always hear. The AC was nice but it meant you couldn’t open the window to vent the stinky rooms. The rooftop and third floor were very nice. The breakfast was okay but it got cold if you didn’t go right when it opened. Staff were nice and the location was convenient. Basically the rooms were bad and everything else was okay.

When we checked in the first thing they told us, was if we give the hostel a good rating we will get a free drink! The hostel is actually not even close to a maximum rating, it is not even close. We have been scammed. The walls are paper thin and and the bathroom is ridiculous. The blankets do not fit in the sheets. The lights are constantly flickering and the shower is like on the beach you have to press it every 30 seconds.

Clean enough, however the quality was not always present. We were two and one of the beds was noticably more uncomfortable than the other, so we took turns switching beds. We also had to go to the front office 4 times to get access to an outlet in our bed. We kept telling them the lockers were blocking the outlet, and they just gave us multiple adapters. It was complicated but they eventually moved all the lockers and beds so we could reach it. Could've just given 2 beds that were on the other side that had perfectly good outlets and lights since the room was quite empty but oh well. Overall is nice, but had some issues with people stealing food :/ Nothing uncommon for a hostel though. Location is great and the workers are very nice!!

Stayed here for a 4 day vacation. The location is great and lets you go in the center very easily either by walking or through the L2 metro at Tetuan. The hostel has a cozy, quiet vibe to it with a communal kitchen (closed very late at night) and living room that are pretty spacious. The rooms have a capability of around 20-25 rooms and you got tents for your privacy. The bathrooms and the showers are mostly clean, they have stalls to divide each and they're open all the time. The receptionists are always available, ready to answer any question and very kind (especially David and Matteo, who I had the chance of chatting with a lot). The hostel also has a terrace, a laundry room (with needed updates on the washing machines) and other activities like the pool table. The only major downside is in the communal fridge where in most cases, I had put my things with my name on them but they were stolen.

A great location with easy access to metro or bus, just 5-10 mins of walking. Extremely clean hostel, love the fact that there were curtains in the bed, to shut while sleeping for added privacy. Plus, lockers were available within the dorm room with key card access, for safety of bags too! A big common area with all amenities to cook your own food and store it, plus plenty of clean bathrooms! Would definitely recommend and i would myself go here again next time I’m in Barcelona.

the entire place smelt like mildew and BO. You can tell it was made ten years ago and there have been no upkeep of the furniture. Push showers. However, a fine place to sleep and spend the rest of your waking hours someplace else. I stayed in the all-women’s dorm and it was mostly empty and they booked the room by bunk bed, so although your room was not full you still shared with a random person. Wifi doesn’t reach dorms. It has a laundry, terrace and common spaces that are fine. Pretty safe with locker with RFID card. Fine for a hostel, but oh boy is it stinky. edit for review: last night my bunkmate was extremely sick and coughed the entire night like she had the plague. that, on top of the noxious constant odor, i am changing my hostel with a few days left of my trip. don’t come here. edit again: i switched to a different hostel. this place is a glorified homeless shelter. spend €50 more and go somewhere else for the night. didn’t get a refund for leaving early. 24yo/F/American

really nice hostel and staff’s! the rooms and bathrooms were really clean and it has a good walking distance to the city (but also the bus or metro stops where not too far away!)

They know about this solo-traveller business. Bunk beds had everything necessary for a nice sleep, even in the 24 person room. The space to interact with other people is big and cozy. If you have computer work to do, there is a different space for that, with several tables. Lightning can be improved, but in general, it was Great.

I stayed in a dorm room for 2 nights. Had an okay stay. I liked that they have curtains for each bed, and the common area is spacious with kitchen. The reception is available 24/7 which is also great. However the internet was down often when I was there. I hope the connection is improved later.
