Place was very clean (twice a day), new looking with huge and secure lockers to store luggage during the day, good breakfast, helpful staff, walking distance to Las Ramblas. Metro stop right near. Couldn't have been any better.

We had an amazing time in HelloBCN. Although it's a large hostel with a lot of rooms, it stays a cozy and great hostel. I'ts easy to find, within metro distance of all major attractions of Barcelona. Helpful staff, clean lavatories, bikes to hire (not expensive at all), well equipped kitchen, safe lockers,... When you like to join in for... More

This was by far one of the best hostel I stayed in while traveling Europe. It's not too far from las ramblas (you ca walk there in no time, or take the metro in less time). The beds were comfortable, the rooms quiet and clean. The bathrooms were nothing to write home about, but they were fine. They have laundry... More

We kicked off our trip in Barca, and HelloBCN was a great place to start. Good location, near a metro, about a 15 minute walk to the beach. The kitchen was clean, there's a bar in the common room, and the staff really tried to make our stay great. Only one bathroom per sex on each floor, so they would... More

I have been there in april 2012 and everything was perfect It was not that expensive and its location is nearby the center of the city . You can go everywhere where you need to visit by walking or metro. I think that part is the best for the students :) Thanks hello bcn !

I stayed here for a concert and it was in a great location, and the staff was awesome! The room was very small, but honestly I was expecting that. The facilities were very clean and there was a cool bar on the first floor and the drinks were flowing! There was a young, fun and friendly atmosphere at this place... More

This was the first hostel I had ever stayed in and it set my expectations very high. We were there for 4 nights so we booked a 4 bedroom (all female) dorm. The lockers were very spacious in each room - although the rooms themselves were not that large. The shower stall door were that warped glass effect so you... More

Though I do live in Barcelona, I once in a while spend weekends in this hostel just for the atmosphere. The hostel is clean, the staff I got to know in the mean time, rooms are secured and there is a locker for every traveler. Breakfast is included, but quite basic. There is free internet, although the wifi signal is... More
