Hostels in Catalonia, Spain

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.

This was the cheapest option when we went to Barcelona so we weren't expecting much. It's actually pretty good. It's more of a budget hotel than a hostel, you'd see people from different age groups. During breakfast you'd see old people as well as children. So if you're looking for a party hostel this isn't the place. There's a bar downstairs though and it's quite easy to meet people there if you're traveling alone. The area is great too, close to the metro station and a number of attractions. lots of places to eat nearby. there's a mini mart just across the street. Facilities were great, rooms were kept clean. Wifi was good. The buffet breakfast was pretty good too and i'd say it's fairly priced. There are washers and dryers in the basement if you need to do your laundry, you just need coins to operate em. If you don't have coins you could easily get some at the reception. Which brings me to the only complaint i'm going to make. At night there's frequently a long line at the reception. The hostel needs to hire more people to man the reception at night.

It’s a basic hotel located near the airport. Do note that the minimum taxi fee to reach the hotel is 21 euro from the airport but if using a taxi meter it’s only between 16-20 euros. There’s a train to the airport too. It’s true that there are mosquitoes in the area but I only found one in the room. There’s no amenities except for all in one shower gel in the bathroom. Interesting hotel concept on water recycling and using light from the sun to power the toilet lights. They are not for profit so it’s actually good to help them spread their intention to help people and the environment. Breakfast provided is very basic. Environment is nice as there’s a small garden. Receptionists are very friendly and helpful.

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.

It's okay. It's very loud until late at night, showers aren't exactly clean in the evening. Most annoying thing is you have to pay for a lock (5€!!!) if you don't have one with you and you want to lock your stuff in your room. You also have to pay for a time locker if you want to leave your bag with them after checkout. Cheap. The best thing about this place is the location. It's close to everything, so if you want to party or you don't mind the noise this place is good.

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.

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.

Upon entering Yeah Barcelona Hostel, you will encounter super friendly hosts! The location is convenient. The shared space is very comfortable and nicely appointed for hanging out if you find yourself lacking things to do in Barcelona city. There is a washer/dryer for catching up on laundry, too. The dining area is open for grabbing your own food or purchasing breakfast in the morning. The hostel will allow you to leave luggage in their luggage room while you are out and about, but it is not locked space. We did not feel our luggage was in any danger, and we enjoyed the freedom of leaving our luggage, but you would have to assess your comfort level for this. Our group of four rented a shared room containing four bunks and its own private bathroom. This was a great option for us. And even though we were older than many of the guests, we had a great experience during our stay. The one thing I feel I should mention is that staff marched through our room to close the balcony door and lock it at bedtime....think fire escape danger! Plus the ac temperature is governed, resulting in a stuffy nighttime experience. This was such a disappointment since I had selected the hostel mostly based on the impression that the pictured door in the room could be open for fresh air all night. Be aware that it cannot. We were told this was a Spain law....it must only apply to hostels because we never ran into that issue anywhere else in the country the next two weeks.

Firstly, the location of this hostel is excellently located just a block away from Diagonal Metro Station where three metro lines converge which made it really easy to travel with the metro. The dorm that I stayed in was a mixed one and was quite cramped, but what the heck - you only sleep there. Every bed had a curtain that could be closed to get some personal space which was great, so once getting into bed it felt quite spacious. The room had A/C and the bed had a small shelf with a bed lamp and an A/C-outlet. When I checked in the bed was already made which I believe is quite unusual at hostels and that made a good first impression. The common areas consisted of a quite large room for meeting new friends an an even bigger outdoor terrace. There is also a common kitchen and a fridge that can be used. This is probably the best cleaned hostel I've ever stayed at and the desk was manned 24/7 which is a great thing if you need help to order a taxi to the airport (I had an early flight so the Metro was not an option). Everyone at the desk speaks great English and were all very helpful.

Room was tidy, roommates respectful, the bed was comfortable and had its privacy. There was plenty of storage and hooks which I appreciated. The staff was really nice and helpful. Would stay there if I’m ever in Barcelona again.

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!

A very practical youth hostel for transit and waiting for flights. It meets the standards of most youth hostels, with complete functions, clear signs, separate dormitories and washrooms for men and women. It is recommended to take the bus from T1 to here. There is a supermarket right after getting off the bus, which is convenient for supplies. It takes 5 minutes to walk to the hotel after getting off the bus. It is recommended to take the bus back to the airport. The bus is 1.25 euros, and you need to buy an airport subway ticket for the subway, which is 5 euros. If you ask the hostel to call a taxi to the airport, it will cost 21 euros. There is no shuttle as mentioned in other reviews, at least it is not a free shuttle.

A pure moment, super festive (it was St Firmin), super cadre, adorable staff. If this had been more from the center and the beaches (foot) I think we would have booked 1 stay longer for next year but we keep the address valuably and we send it well voluntary
