Lock in a great price for Generator Hostel Barcelona – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

Some of my happiest memories of Barcelona are when I think of my single room in Generator. Comfortable and contemporary, it was a feel good space to chill at after a long day spent out. The mattress was super comfortable and the balcony was perfect for unwinding and having relaxed conversations. The hostel is located in a vibrant neighbourhood in the city and I used to love walking around Gracia. The staff is very friendly and the hostel is always buzzing with activity. Though slightly on the expensive side, Generator offers a unique experience.

I was here with a friend in July and this is definitely one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at. The facilities were clean, staff were very helpful and friendly and the location was great too. There is a supermarket right across the road from the hostel which is where we got breakfast most mornings that can be stored in the hostel fridge. There is also an ATM near by and a taco place next to the supermarket which is great for dinner or lunch. Check the opening hours of lunch venues before you go because most places close during the middle of the day. Our favourite part about the hostel was the nightlife and the bar. They had great sangria jugs at an affordable price which can be split between a couple of people.

Location is near the center and a lot of nice restaurants and bars. Friendly crew but long waiting at reception.

Jule, Netherlands

This is such a cool hostel! I highly recommend. Pretty good location. Barcelona is a beautiful city so it's worth the walk or hire bikes to the beach and other tourist spots. Train station is moments away if walking isn't your thing

The bed is comfy for a hostel... the room is clean and it is a very nice location... just few meters away from diagonal metro station. Sagrada Familia is very near, there is a bus stop nearby that can bring you anywhere in barcelona.

눉We initially booked a 6-bed mixed dorm and later changed to a single room. Space is very constrained in the 6-bed dorm. I would recommend travelling very light if you are booking a dorm bed.
눇Some of my happiest memories of Barcelona are when I think of my single room in Generator. Comfortable and contemporary, it was a feel good space to chill at after a long day spent out. The mattress was super comfortable and the balcony was perfect for unwinding and having relaxed conversations.

눉The breakfast wasn't great and it's cost you 8 euros. You can find better breakfast elsewhere for the same price. The lift is awful to use!, I'm glad I was on the second floor because I used the stairs the entire time I was there.
눇The separate toilet & shower in the room was good. A good shower head. A large drawer to keep your stuff with the ability to lock it. You have your own plug next to your bed. There's a games area, bar area and quieter areas as well.

“Overprice and occasionally unfriendly service from the staffs.”

- • Stayed 4 nights
눉1. Breakfast price of this hostel was high, so I didn't try it. Instead there are several good bakeries and cafe shops for breakfast choice around the blocks. 2. My laundry experience was terrible. There's a long line everyday and only one washer was functioning during my stay. When I reported back to the staffs that my coins was stuck in the machine, they told me to wait for technicians to come fix it. And after almost an hour waiting, I went up stairs and asked again. Then they suggested me to go to other laundry store around the block. I wish that they could have provide this information earlier, or put up a note or something in the laundry room. The laundry store was a bit more expensive, but at least I wouldn't waste my whole morning dealing this hostel's laundry room issues. 3. No mat or any pad outside the shower room, so every time we came out the shower the floor was all wet and dirty. 4. Some of storage under the bunk bed was poorly designed. The storage I was assigned to, was like a heavy wood box with a lid ON TOP (lid should be at the front or the whole thing should be like a drawer). So every time I want to get my things from the storage, I had to pull out the whole box (like 80cm long) to open the heavy lid. Many times me and my roommate almost got our fingers slammed by the lid cus it was so heavy, also we often forgot it was a box, not a drawer.
눇Good location. Close to metro station. 24hr convenience store across the street.

눉The elevator took a while to get to our room from the reception level. Also, the hostel doesn't have a kitchen to cook. If only has a fridge and basic cutlery so if you are planning on cooking here, I would reconsider.
눇I was here with a friend in July and this is definitely one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at. The facilities were clean, staff were very helpful and friendly and the location was great too. There is a supermarket right across the road from the hostel which is where we got breakfast most mornings that can be stored in the hostel fridge.
