Hostel One Paralelo

Amazing hostel! Hostel One creates the most effective hostel setting possible, wherever you go. Free, tips-based family dinners every single night are the most effective way to familiarize yourself with your fellow travellers and make plans for the night/next day. The staff are simply amazing! They really try to make the most effective of your stay and are often up for a laugh or some proper advise! Don&'t let the location discourage you, it&'s really not too faraway from anywhere as properly as the staff makes parties happen all over Barcelona, every single night!

Great hostel! Large social areas meant it was really effortless to meet lots of exceptional people. The free bar crawls each night were also a really good way to see parts of the cities nightlife that you may miss. The entire hostel was extremely clean and always felt extremely secure. The employees are all really warm and friendly and have lots of useful local knowledge. Shout out to Valerie for making or stay that little bit more incredible!

Everything really. Has a close community really feel and they provide a free dinner for everyone to socialise and then a night out in case you want to. Employees really friendly, amenities good, great food and bars nearby and not too far from anything. I&'d definitely suggest this location and wish I had stayed longer!

If you begin your trip in Barcelona at any other hostel then Hostel One Paralelo, you have already missed an outstanding opportunity and a stay of a lifetime. This is by far the very best hostel I have ever been to. The memories I have made there are, and will continue to be, one of the greatest times I have ever been afforded. A+ Staff and Employees: Thru the course of my stay the employees was not only my help inside the city traveling alone, but became friends I will always cherish. They really are and hire genuine individuals who are positive, caring, lighthearted, and people filled with integrity. Mauro, Natasja, Milito and Angel (not to forget anyone) were outstanding to know and made my stay effortless and extraordinary. A+ Sleeping Area: The beds and halls were always clean and were cleaned daily. Noises is contained downstairs and sleeping is never a problem. The beds were exactly what you need, the showers warm up incredibly fast. It is a extremely safe environment, for your belongings and yourself. I made outstanding connections with everyone I bunked next to. A+ Common Area: The principal hangout location promotes a sense of community and family, but mostly importantly, comfort. You meet as many people as you want or don&'t want. The quality of the people staying there was only enhanced by the hostel&'s environment, easily made inside the common area. There are 3 hi speed computers offered and a lot of space to hangout and relax, including an outside patio and couches. A+ Food: The largest surprise and delight was the food offered at Hostel One Paralelo. I made sure not to miss the FREE dinner each night (based on tips). Always so hardy, flavorful and enough to go around. Being a picky eater, I never had a problem with what they had and loved it every night. Breakfast inside the morning for 2 euros is equally as nice. Coffee, croissants, omelette, muffins, and more. A+ Nightlife: What is a much better way to become familiar with the outstanding individuals staying around you then outstanding excursions offered every single night for free. The whole hostel goes out to outstanding bars and night clubs that exceed everything you know about conventional places. You never have to worry about being lost or inebriated inside the city simply because of the family of the hostel and also the care they use to escort you around to the very best places Barcelona has to offer. And yes, Barcelona has some of the very best places to offer you inside the world. Mauro is the man as the whole hostel is privileged to get into places often skipping lines and cover.

This is by far the very best hostel I&´ve ever stayed in! Indeed a party hostel. The hostel is near by to a bus stop and a metro. The staff were awesome. The hostel had a fantastic atmosphere. They put on a free dinner for the visitors (with sangria! ) which brought everyone together so I was able to meet other people really easily. The staff then took all of the visitors out for an awesome night.

HostelOne was fantastic! The minute I walked in, I felt welcomed and comfortable staying here and travelling alone. This was my first expertise at a hostel and I don&'t think it could have been any better. The staff was incredibly accomodating, the beds were comfortable and clean. The bathroom was also clean. The amentities such as washing were super convenient, in addition to the evening public dinners for free.

Everything - the employees was incredible, quickly learning your name and making you really feel like you&'re part of the hostel one family. I arrived at 11:30pm due to a very delayed flight and was welcomed by Angel who said I could totally check-in inside the morning, but more importantly grab some dinner first. The public dinner really brings people together and you instantly make friends. The food was also excellent, from pasta with cinnamon (sounds weird, was actually good) to the highest risotto with veggies I&'ve had in a while. So numerous people were travelling by themselves and this was key in meeting others. Right after dinner each night, the employees took us out to a chill bar for pregaming then a club to dance until the wee hours of the morning. The culture isn&'t that you have to go out each night (it can be exhausting! ) but the option is often there and numerous people do. Even so, I wouldn&'t call this a party hostel - the rooms and facilities are very clean and there was no drinking inside the actual rooms so you can sleep uninterrupted from whatever else is going on. Everyone staying there was very respectful of one another along with the vibe was that of whatever makes you instantly make friends :-) The hostel was centrally situated a few minutes walk from the metro, each bed has an outlet (it&'s important! ), and there&'s a lift if you&'re feeling lazy and are on the 4th floor. Just looking at the facilities, perks, etc of all of the hostels, numerous look outstanding on paper and are, in fact, very good places to stay, especially with the plethora of hostels in Barcelona. The employees totally was the differentiator in my stay here. Over my 5 nights, the primary employees I interacted with was made up of Angel, Marcos, Natasha, and Madelyn. Angel is one of the founders of the hostel and it&'s very clear that he deeply cares about your stay and wants you to have an awesome time. Marcos was our personal party guide for a few of the nights, but also took us to a super chill beach that we spent a few afternoons. Natasha was incredibly sweet and helpful with suggestions of what to do inside the area, and was also around during the day to chat with and just hang out. Madelyn was on the night shift a few times when we got back and we had a few great conversations that were way too late/early inside the morning, but were very fun. Obviously this is just a quick blurb, but the employees here is genuinely exceptional. I&'ve also stayed at one of their sister hostels in Prague (Hostel One Home) a few years back and still keep in touch with and meet up with friends from that trip - I know I&'ll similarly keep in touch with friends from this stay. The atmosphere at both was very conducive to making friends, which was why I got very excited when I saw this listing. Overall, Barcelona was the last stop on my trip and it really finished with a bang. Hostel One was just icing (lots of icing) on the cake.

The staff is amazing, the location is exceptional and you can often uncover someone to go out with. Hands down the very best hostel for solo travelers. I knew it was going to be very good simply because of the other reviews, but this fully exceeded my expectations. I even changed my flight and extended my stay 2 days. If I could stay longer I would.
