    Great staff, clean and friendly hostel

    The best thing about this hostel is its staff. The common area, the lounge zone and the kitchen are clean and well-equipped. I liked the concept of the hostel and can recommend it, especially for solo travelers who look for a company in a new city. The room is just a room where you can sleep. The bed curtain adds some privacy, this is a good idea.

    Absolutely loved my stay at OneFam hostel! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with a warm welcome from the staff, making me feel right at home. The beds were clean and comfortable, and I especially appreciated having a private bunk bed for some extra privacy. The atmosphere in the hostel was incredibly friendly – everyone I met was kind and welcoming. OneFam also organizes events throughout the day, which made it easy to meet new people and explore the city. The club experience they offer is simply amazing, ensuring there's never a dull moment. A special thanks goes to the manager, Eoin, for providing this unforgettable experience. His dedication to ensuring guests have a great time truly sets this hostel apart. Highly recommend OneFam to anyone looking for a fantastic hostel experience!

    Check-in was smooth, onboarding went great. Since I was there for only 1x night, they respected that I just needed a place for one night. Next time I would have taken of all the awesome activities. The people were very nice! :)

    The rooms were a bit cramped, so there wasn’t much space to walk.

    Very friendly and welcoming staff and volunteers. Great for solo traveling since they organize a lot of activities so it’s a good way to meet people, and ofc party.

    Slept very little and I'm very happy about it!
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Bed in 6-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    I slept really poorly in the 6-bed dorm, even with a good pair of earplugs. If it is rest and relaxation that you are after, you will probably be better off at a hotel, apartment or a quieter hostel. But the memories and connections I gained more than outweigh the sleep deprivation, hence the 10/10!

    Before booking I've read in the reviews that this is the best place to stay if you are a solo traveler looking to meet like-minded people. This couldn't be more true, I've met so many amazing people while only being there for 3 nights and 2 full days. I really like the concept of Onefam and it works really well! Since the staff are volunteers who are travelling too, they are personally invested in making the activities fun and also getting to know people. It's an entirely different feeling compared to other hostels where the staff may be helpful and friendly but you can feel that it is just a job for them. All activities are super fun and also informative, and designed in a way to help you meet other travelers. Since all Onefam sister hostels join up for these activities, the pool of people you can meet is just huge! I will definitely look out for Onefam hostels in other cities I plan to visit in the future! I would even book a few nights in my hometown if there was one, just for the vibes! @Abby: Best directions I've ever received. Period. @Sedge: If the hostel really was a family, you would be the cool mom! @Made: Cool rapper indeed

    Nothing

    This place is epic. We booked super last minute and we are glad we decided to stay here. The girls at reception are so lovely. They welcome you like family. Location is epic. Just down the road from the subway and close to tons of traditional restaurants and tapas bars. The facilities are great. A reallllly comfortable bed! A perfect place if you want to explore Barcelona for a few days. We were sad it was just an overnight stop. Whenever we get back to Barcelona we will be staying here. Highly recommend!

    Eoin who was on reception the day of my stay in this hostel was an absolute gent. So accommodating with everything I needed during my stay in OneFam Paralelo. Made me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived which exceeded my expectations! Jeff who was on duty to make food for guests for free of charge that evening made a beautiful pasta dish that was a big hit with everyone! They have a brilliant structure in place at this hostel to allow all guests staying to mingle and get to know each other, offering a free meal in the evening, a drinking games option before a representative of the hostel will bring the guests out to a bar to mingle with the other OneFam hostels in Barcelona before then offering free entry to the bar/club that has been decided for that night. I would 100% recommend anyone and everyone to stay at this hostel if you want to make new friends and feel like you're at home and accommodated for.

    I was looking for a social hostel but the age limit on the guests led to a more immature crowd that I wasn’t very interested in. The drinking games were all sexual in a very forced way. There are better ways to get people to know each other.

    The mattress and bedding were extremely comfortable. The people there are kind and organized.
