BGarden BCN is a small and cozy guest-house which offers a personalized service.

My partner and I stayed with our two young children for 2 nights. The apartment was absolutely lovely and felt very Spanish. It was clean and very spacious and we had a lovely balcony we used a lot. The breakfast was delicious and fresh. The staff were wonderful and very accomodating with our kids - providing a cot and early check in. We were able to walk to all of the attractions.

Onefam Les Corts is located in Barcelona’s Les Corts district, just 3 minutes’ walk from FC Barcelona’s Camp Nou Stadium. It offers a Netflix room where you can chill after an exploring day.

From the moment I arrived at Onefam Les Corts, I knew it was going to be a great stay. If you're looking for good vibes and great people, this is the place to be. The staff are super friendly and fun. They organize city tours, family dinners, and game nights, so it's really easy to meet other travelers and have a good time. The beds were very comfortable and each one comes with two outlets, a reading light, and a curtain for extra privacy. The rooms were nice and clean. The bathrooms were also very clean, and the wifi worked perfectly like super fast. The location is quite good too. It's easy to get to the main tourist spots with just one metro ride and Barcelona's metro system is really simple and convenient. There are plenty of markets and restaurants nearby as well. Overall, I had a really fun and chill time here. Perfect if you're a young traveler looking to explore the city and meet new people.

Casa Jam Barcelona is located in the lively and bohemian Grácia neighbourhood in Barcelona, 1.5 km from Parc Güell and 20 minutes' walk from Sagrada Familia Temple. Free WiFi access is available.

The place is great! Situated in a really nice area, close to the tube, cafes and restaurants. Quiet and safe. There is really nice design in the common areas. Kitchen is great, coffee and tea available all day. The staff were really nice and gave as a lot of recommendations about the restaurants and places. We would definitely come back if we will come to visit Barcelona again.

Primavera hostel is set in Barcelona’s Eixample district, 8 minutes’ walk from the Sagrada Familia Basilica.

Perfect location. Clean. But beds are noisy and price for a hostel is too high. But that is Barcelona. It is pricey

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    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!

    Great hostel, rooms were clean and modern. Beds were very comfortable. Lockers under the bunk beds. Friendly reception staff and great facilities available. Great location too, within walking distance to the shops, bus stops, metro and restaurants. Supermarkets right across the road too.

    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.

    Its a great place to go solo travelling. You get to meet a ton of new people really easily. The staff is super friendly. The hostel also organizes a ton of free activity. Very good location. Clean. As a woman solo traveler, i felt very safe, even in the mixed dormitory, which still feels very private and secure. Highly recommend!

    Great location, great ambiance, clean and nice staff. Iconic places are just walking distance. They have cheaper meal options than a regular bar/cafeteria (very basic, though). This was my first hostel experience, and I felt safe.

    Friendly hostel in a great location. We had a double bunk bed room. Bunks were very comfortable and didn’t move. Spacious room with lockers, table & chairs, openable window. Large clean bathrooms with good lighting throughout. We felt welcome, safe and secure. Recommend!

    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.
