Barcelona Hostels

An excellent place for a short stay. Clean, modern and chic impressing two discerning teenagers. Stayed in a top floor ensuite family room (with efficient air conditioning), facing the road with a small balcony. Good double glazing meant no traffic noise. We were there 2 nights and the room was tidied and serviced during our stay - a bonus which we didn't expect. All staff especially at reception were polite and very helpful. Good variety at continental breakfast buffet available from 8 to 11, suitable for early birds and late risers. Were able to leave luggage secuely free of charge when we checked out of room but had an evening flight. Only very minor quibble was the automatic light in the toilet that came on when you used it in the middle of the night, which woke others. Never worked out if you could disable it. Would definitely stay there again and am already recommending it to others.

I am a solo female traveler, came to stay in this hostel for 4 nights. This was my first experience staying in a hostel and it went definitely amazing thanks to Factory Hostel and it’s amazing stuff. Everyone working here is so friendly, they always smile and help you in the best possible way (Special thanks to Maria Laura). All receptionists are fluent in Spanish and English. They all have been truly lovely. They do cleaning everyday, they serve delicious cake and coffee around 2 EUR. People that stay here is also nice and friendly, you can have good friendships if you would like to. Beds and pillows are pretty comfortable, curtains give you a little privacy which is nice, they give you considerably big cabinet to lock your belongings, air conditioning working 7/24, they have a cute kitchen and lounge areas to enjoy the stay. It is very close to Park Güell, a little far from beach and center but there is always public transportation that you can use, takes about 30-45 mins to go wherever you want (including walking to stops). I would %100 recommend and if I ever come back to Barcelona would definitely stay here again!

I was extremely disappointed in my stay here. On our first night, my friend was getting ready at the sink and was slightly leaning against the sink when the whole thing came crashing down. This was due to proper installation and one of us could have easily been injured. We went to tell the front desk who said we would talk to management before receiving a charge, but 10 minutes later my card got charged. I tried to contact management numerous times and never got a response. We also had a maintenance worker walk into our room unannounced at 9am, while there were 5 girls asleep in our room which were very uncomfortable with. These experiences overall really negatively effected our weekend and the rest of our stay here.

Dormitory use Location Not so bad near the Arc de Triomphe. staff It's not bad feeling as usual. It's not good to pick up but it's normal. Equipment and amenities The inside is spacious and has a lot of space. Simple decor. I don't think it's dirty, but it's specially beautiful! Does not. Normal cleanliness. If price is important, we are satisfied. But since I was late check-in after 22:00, an extra 10 € was taken. I thought this was expensive. There is a sofa and a table in the common space so you can relax. not bad. Towels are charged. OK if you don't arrive late at night because of the price.

I stayed 5 nights in the accommodation and the truth that was all very pleasant. The staff boys all with the best of the waves always and available for any doubt I had. I highlight the work of Ceci, Diogo, Alan, Sofi and Geri. The hotel is very comfortable and the common rooms of the best of the Hostel. The only point in the way of ” complain” is that my goal at the Hostel was to meet people, within all my age and just throughout my stay there was a trip of primary and secondary children, who occupied all the rooms of the hotel.

The pillows were too low, the quilt was a thin sheet, told the front desk but they did not provide us with more pillows and quilts. Only two more thin orders were given. There is no luggage storage, only small boxes that are self-locking. Two euros at a time. But my 24-inch suitcase couldn't fit in. You can only go to the case or backpack. Next to the subway station. My wallet was stolen when I was ”lucky” when I came out of this station on the first day. The thief pretended to help our two girls carry suitcases. The front desk staff was completely unaware of the correct police station that opened at night and told us the wrong address. Not recommended

I stayed at Sant Jordi for 6 nights in the beginning of July. It was my first time staying at a hostel and I had a great experience. The hostel was very well run and clean. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, especially the Argentinian girl who checked me in and the night time guy from Morocco. They will help if you have questions about day trips or activities in the city or surrounding countryside. The hostel is also in a very good location, where you can easily walk to the Gothic Quarter in 20 minutes. Getting to the beach or some other locations may require the metro. The hostel is definitely geared towards a younger crowd. They have happy hours and bar crawls every night. If you are looking to party and experience the nightlife in Barcelona, this is definitely a hostel you should stay at. The hostel has air conditioning, which is a must during the summer, but you might have to ask the front desk to turn it up.

Very cool and funky hotel in a great area. Location: center city. Very convenient to many of the sites, metro, shopping (high end), hop on/ hop off bus, nice restaurants, etc Hotel overall: just COOL with a very laid back, fun vibe. Daily free yoga classes. Free walking tour. Amazing breakfast. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. No language issues. Decor is fabulous and eclectic. Excellent use of old and new. Elevators from the last century. Circular staircases surround the elevators. Yoga studio with colorful, comfortable pillows. Tile floors. Lots of shared/common areas including library, study, terrace (great sitting area for cards and a glass of wine), communal kitchen with fridges, micro, plates, glasses, flatware... The room: we got a double with ensuite bath. The room was TINY and dark. Had a bed and an open ”warerobe” with a rod and couple of shelves and that was it. One window with drapes looking out over a small, dark inner courtyard type square. Not even bedside tables. The bath was tiny and the shower floor was ceramic and treacherous when wet. No grab bars, so be had to be very careful. The room was quite off putting at first, but once you ”let it go”, it sort of fit with the experience. It made us socialize more and enjoy the common areas. Met a couple of interesting people... No TV -- anywhere, including common areas. At first it was strange, but we ended up enjoying the break from the noise -- it fits with the Casa vibe. Price/rate: very reasonable, @$100us per night plus tax.

Many backpackers likes this types of hostel, travelers sharing room, everyone has their own bed, can talk and meet new friends of different countries, has cheap breakfast and dinner, staff made It like home kitchen. also there is a Spanish girl play guitar and sing during dinner time, they have lots of information about the local tours, staffs are will to share information with people. GOOD for people who want to meet backpackers from other countries and save some money from hotel. Remember to bring a lock for your locker.

I stayed 3 nights in a 6 people dorm and I was impressed on how clean and well designed the room was. I loved the ”eco-friendly” practice of turning off the AC automatically after the room reaches a certain temperature. Also, the room had good noise isolation so even though there were a lot of very loud people outside, I couldn't hear a thing.
