Hostels in Catalonia, Spain

Upon checking in, they will give you a welcome drink. They will show you around your assigned room. Bed was very comfortable and there’s aircon in each rooms. Kitchen is sufficient and there’s a lot of chairs to sit in. Breakfast was simple but filling. Overall, I had a very comfortable stay.

Oh my goodness! For just 20 euros per night, this hostel is an absolute gem. Even the 12-person room is surprisingly quiet and comfortable. The location is fantastic, and my XL suitcase fit perfectly in the storage space. The staff is incredibly helpful, and the kitchen is spotless, with all the necessary dishes ready for use. The only minor issue is that all the amenities, including shampoo and soap, had a distinct, unpleasant cucumber scent.

Overall, a good stay with a Few Minor Issues I stayed at Safestay Barcelona Gothic from June 17–18, 2025, in a 12-bed mixed dorm. The experience was mostly positive. ✅ Pros: The location is excellent — just a 5-minute walk from the metro, which made it easy to get around. If you have an early flight (like mine at 08:30), this is a good place to stay as you can easily reach the airport in time. The dorm, bathrooms, and common areas were all neat and clean. Wi-Fi worked well throughout my stay. The staff was friendly and spoke good English. Definitely value for money. ⚠️ Cons: The check-in time listed in my confirmation email was 14:00, but they didn’t allow check-in until 15:00. This was a bit inconvenient. Breakfast was not included in the booking. Overall, it’s a decent and budget-friendly option in a central area, especially for solo or budget travellers. I would recommend it for short stays.

Breakfast is available EUR5 from 4 am, prearranged taxi to airport is available on pre booking first come first get basis. Midnight bus n17 to the airport is at the corner of the hotel accepted by T casual mobility card. An elevator is available at the hotel, highly recommended

I stayed here during my solo trip and had the best experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff were so warm, friendly, and helpful — they really made me feel at home. The bathrooms were spotless and well maintained, which made such a big difference during my stay. The whole place had a really welcoming and positive vibe, and it was super easy to meet other travelers and make friends. As a solo traveler, I always look for places that feel safe and comfortable, and this hostel ticked all the boxes. The common areas were lively but relaxed, perfect for chatting, reading, or just hanging out. I left with great memories and new friends — I’d 100% recommend this hostel to anyone, especially solo travelers looking for a clean, friendly, and fun place to stay!

My stay here was not good. First, there's a lack of communication among the staff. I booked my room in two separate segments, and when I checked in, I specifically asked if I needed to check out in between. The front desk staff told me no, and I paid the city tax for both booking periods. However, today, two staff members entered my room without knocking and told me I needed to check out and pay the city tax, also claiming I was in the wrong bed. It took them over five minutes to verify the situation and sort things out. Secondly, the hotel facilities are old. The elevator often doesn't come when called; sometimes I waited for five minutes with no response. The vending machine also didn't work well; it charged me 2.5 Euros, but the item didn't come out. When I reported this to the front desk, they said they couldn't do anything since the vending machine isn't owned by the hotel. They only expressed regret, without offering any compensation. While this is understandable, it still significantly affected my mood.

I'd like to thank the staff member who kindly checked me in, even though it was late at night. They were exceptionally friendly. Thanks to them, I'm leaving with good memories. The facilities were a bit underwhelming for the price, but perfectly adequate! The location is really great, and I also enjoyed the dinner party in the evening.

The room was a bit small and felt cramped if there were more than 2 people, but otherwise it was very well equipped, and the staff in particular were very nice and helpful.

I arrived late at night, but they were able to accommodate me as I had contacted them in advance. They were very kind and I'd like to use their services again next time.

Thank you Lucy, Jack, and Emma for taking good care of me. This was one of the best hostels I’ve ever experienced. As soon as I arrived I was greeted and invited to play beach volleyball. At night we played drinking games and had a welcome party. Then we enjoyed a pub crawl where we enjoyed VIP entrance to a couple of clubs. I would definitely stay here again. I met so many people. I had the best time. The bathrooms were sooo clean. They even cooked dinner for us for free!!! The only negative is that rooms and bathrooms were a bit small.
