The facilities are absolutely fantastic. The rooms are spacious, and the bunk beds offer a great deal of privacy. Since I had to work for a significant portion of my stay, I especially appreciated the common areas — the common areas provided comfy seats which were both inviting and practical. The place is spotless. The staff were constantly seen cleaning, especially in the shared toilets and kitchen, which were always well-maintained. The receptionists were helpful, efficient, and friendly. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which made working remotely easy. Overall, the entire setup is thoughtfully designed with the traveler's comfort in mind. You really can't ask for more from a hostel.

This is one exceptional hostel stay that I've had. The hostel location is superb in the heart of Madrid. They organize activities everyday such as morning city tours and evening pub crawl. They also have daily free breakfast snacks and dinner every other day. I want to thank in particular from the staff "Angel Garcia" who ensures everyone have a great experience from the moment they arrive for check-in. He has provided great recommendations for attractions to visit, bars to go to and places to eat, thank you Angel !

It is one of the best hostels I have visited. The staff was exceptional, always ready to help. Helped me arranging my Toledo visit. The cleanliness was superb. Bathrooms were cleaned several times in a day. It is right next to Plaza Mayor. Has a supermarket right outside the door! They arrange gatherings over free sangrias in the evening. Its a good start to meet the fellow travelers! Even the breakfast spread in the morning is really good! The free walking tours suggested was nice. overall loved the hostel!

All hostels in Madrid

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The location is very central, the hostel seems very secure, very quiet and I felt very safe. It was clean, much nicer than I expected, the entrance hallway when you walk into the main hostel area is a treat. This was my first time staying in a hostel with other people and bunk beds in 20 odd years, and it was great to meet and speak to other people.

    Really lovely and friendly place to stay! The staff were accommodating from the outset and make lots of recommendations on the best places to sight see. The rooms were spacious and clean and the beds were comfy, all facilities working perfectly. The hostel is in a great location all round and there’s a really welcoming atmosphere as they arrange lots of group activities and dinners so you feel settled in straight away. Would recommend to anyone, especially if you’re a female solo traveller as it feels very safe!

    Best hostel in Madrid, great people, great location, super clean! They don’t have bunk beds, only individual beds which is the best. Every day they organise fun activities and there was even free dinner when I was there, tortilla/bravas/pinxtos, delicious! The staff members are super friendly and helpfull, even manage to remember your name! Would absolutely recommend this place :)
