Youth Hostels at their best in Barcelona

By: Sanchez Lanfor

Young people aged between 18 and 30 usually look for accommodations that offer special prices to youth, especially the students. Thus, youth hostels are an inseparable part of traveling in Europe, especially for the young. You can get a room for as low as $15 to $40, varying with the place and the kind of room you opt for. So, wherever you go to Europe you can be rest assured that the youth hostels would be there to offer you great accommodation deals.

Most youth hostels offer what they call dormitory rooms that sleep two, four, six, 12, 14, or 16 people. You can book at once with a group of friends, or you can opt to take your chances. Some hostels do offer private rooms, and many offer girls' and boys' dormitories separately. However, you will get the best prices if you agree to sleep in a mixed dormitory room for 14 or 16 people.

The majority of youth hostels offer safes or lockers for you to keep your belongings in (no one wants to haul a backpack to a nightclub). Some offer them for free, and others require a payment for the lockers. Many youth hostels now offer heated water and air-conditioned comfort during the summer. Here are some of Barcelona's best bets for youth hostels.

1. Ideal Youth Hostel. This hostel really is ideal. It is located in the near the Barcelona city center, close to the Ramblas boulevard, which is famous for its activities. The hostel is located next to the Opera House and offers breakfast in the price. There is a 24 hour reception desk, and there is common room. There is no curfew and no lockout, so you do not have to worry about what time you come home. Free Internet access for your laptop. This is also one the least expensive youth hostel in Barcelona.

2. Alberg Juvenil Palua hostel also offers free lockers and a large common room with a TV. It is located near the Barcelona city center in a section known as the Barri Gotic and near Ramblas. It offers kitchen facilities and breakfast is included in the price. There is provision for bike parking for your bike rental.

3. INOUT Hostel. One of the lower priced hostels in the city, the INOUT offers a great deal. It is located further from Barcelona, and requires a 25-minute ride to Ramblas. However, there is much to be desired, despite its seemingly remote location. The hostel is located in Collserola Park.

Collserola Park features 25 hectares of forests, gardens, and sports fields. The hostel also offers the option of ordering a picnic basket and homemade tomato bread. There are various organized trips to the city or to the country. Additionally, the hostel has a messenger boat that can take you to Barcelona's famous beaches.
