This bright, modern hostel is 5 minutes’ walk from Barcelona Port. It offers air-conditioned dormitory rooms, a free Wi-Fi zone and a communal terrace, 5 minutes’ walk from Las Ramblas.

Only stayed for one night but Luca at the front desk was nice, friendly and helpful! So was everyone staying there! AC and curtains on beds are a big plus and there is a huge terrace on the first floor. They organize dinner every night then you can go out to the pubs and night club if you want to ! I’m sure the overall experience that they offer is great if you looking to meet people and party in BCN!

Onefam Sants is a lively social hostel located 492 feet from Badal Metro Station. It offers a free Wi-Fi zone, a chill-out terrace zone and free dinner and daily and night activities.

It's a great place. Personally, my trip didn't go well, as I lost my passport. I don't know how. But the staff were really helpful and empathetic. They searched it on behalf of me, took care of my other valuables, and gave me great tips and advice on how to proceed with the next steps. 👏

Primavera hostel is in Barcelona’s Eixample district, an 8 minute walk from the Sagrada Familia Basilica. It offers free Wi-Fi and private rooms with a balcony, 220 yards from Verdaguer Metro Station....

Very nice. Location was great. Walk to Sagrada Familia in 10 minutes and you can catch the hop on bus there. Close to metro. It was like going to summer camp. I chose the 4 bed dorm. It was great for Barcelona for a couple of days. The whole staff was the best!

    This is the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Everybody in the staff made sure the stay was pleasant. We stayed in a private. The room was clean, no smells, we had AC, we had a balcony. My impression was that the staff made sure all guests respeced each other and the simple and decent rules they have. The pool was clean and it looks safe.

    The hostel is very clean and well kept. Staff cleans several times a day and is very good with housekeeping. Each bed has socket, light, curtain and a personal drawer for storage with a padlock. The staff is really nice and helpful. The garden is pretty and the free breakfast is good enough. Great location, easy to walk everywhere. Possibility to safely leave luggage before check-in and after check-out. Would definitely recommend it!

    I am frequent traveller, never stayed at any such place like bunk bed or dormitory, not even a thought, tried it out of an emergency taking away pleasant experience. The location is just around the corner, prime spot with nearby plenty of restaurants, safe spot for travellers from outside Barcelona. Room and bathroom are clean. plus point pantry, I carried take away and enjoyed eating at hostel instead of waiting for empty seat at restaurant. Good wifi network. most important peace, no noise and I could work without disturbance.

    Great location, great atmosphere. Cheap and cheerful but very unpretentious. By far the best thing about this hostel is Patrick who goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay. I was travelling alone and he was super reassuring and helpful and I would not have had such a good time if it weren’t for his advice. If you are looking for a swanky, luxurious hotel experience this isn’t for you but if you want a nice, clean, safe and friendly place to stay then I can’t recommend this hostel enough.
