    This is one of the best Youth Hostels in town, and its location is unbeatable. I visited it looking for accomodation, but was full, so I couldn't stay, but the place seemed OK and the ambiance good.
    It is in the Placa Reial, where there are many terraces and restaurants, 50 metres from Las Ramblas.

    Prices 13-21 euros, depending on the season...

    • Fun hostal. Near Plaza Catalunya. Walking down Las Ramblas, it is in a plaza on the left. They have a terrace on the roof where you can get beers for 2 euros. Wednesday nights they go bar hopping. Great if you are alone and want to meet people. There are rooms with bunk beds. They supply blankets and sheets and there are big lockers with electronic keys. Feels safe and fun. You get free breakfast with your stay in the cafe downstairs. Lots of people around eating at the terraces and there is a fountain in the middle.
    17 euros, 35 with deposit for key which you get back
    get there before 11 am to be sure to get a room. it fills up fast!

    • Someone I met brought me hear. And for what I was looking for at the time, it was perfect. (read: if you are looking for someplace quiet - not here) Again, this is a hostel, and it attracts a young party crowd. I felt bad because many of the people I met there didn’t get the chance to see BCN in the day too much. The hostel has $1 beers in the vending machines and has sangria and tap (ie Keg) specials during “happy hour” every night. This is when and where everyone congregated to decide what was on everyone’s agendas for the evening. It promoted a very social atmosphere for the travelers. There were always people from other hostels cruising through during the first part of the evening for this reason. Always an option if you can’t get a room here.

    *Clean
    *large safes
    *great place to pre-party - social
    *central location
    *4 to 30 beds in a room

    This place has everything you need all under one roof. Located right off of Las Rambles, this hostel has a plethera of beds, girls and a bar on the second floor where all the guests party at night. The best thing about this hostel is it's location. Set in a square with a fountain, lots of restaraunts and action, this hostel is right in the middle of the party. There is a party here every night and cheap pitchers of Sangria. Beware that your not allowed to bring your own beer into the hostel, but that didn't stop us. Also, the guy at the front desk was a complete dumb-ass, for those who were wondering.

    The place has everything you need and is set in a party atmosphere. Girls and guys are getting together and having fun. Each bed has a locker next to it for your pack. Also, for those who are looking for some smoke, hash can almost always be purchased around the fountain.

    • didn't stay there.
    just know that kabul is the best place in barca to get ***faced before a night out. 2 euros for a litre of beer oor sangria, or why not mix the two to make spanish snakebite like i did... big up to faye C and patrick for making my trip the best ever... i'll be back there in the summer, so if anyone heading out to barca wants a good time and a guide to the city, ask around for nick.. i'll be the pissed one in the corner at kabul, hidden behind a tower of beer cans..

    good views, over zealous bouncers downstairs at jamboree who go mental if something is thrown at them from the window, spanish snakebite, amazing party atmosphere..

  • Directions: three quarters of the way down la rambla from placa de catalunya(where the bus from the airport drops you off), turn left into placa reial, take a right once in the square, and kabul is above the nightclub jamboree.

    Packed of people, 10 beds in a tiny room. Very noisy surroundings at night till morning. But it has a very strategic location, in the heart of Las Ramblas. 10 min walking to the beach, 10 min to Placa Cataluna.

    Price is very cheap, incl. breakfast and dinner too!

    Kabul Youth Hostel.

    (The square in the picture was taken from balcony of the room I was in)

    Sure it's the drunken frat of the hostel industry, but it is also one of the best youth hostels of my journey. The rooms are cleaned and sheets are changed daily, and there are big lockers that are accessed by the same card that keys you into your room. The food you can buy from the kitchen is great if you are not a vegetarian, and the lounge area turns into a big party every night with travellers from all over. The area is a bit seedy, but filled with clubs and a grand old square with lanterns designed by Gaudi himself.
    Prices Room (breakfast not included)
    High season: 1.800- 2.500 ptas.
    Low season: 1.200- 1.700 ptas.

    Great Views of Square if in the right room
    Cool Staff

    Crazy Vending machines including a grilled cheese sandwich machine, a french fry machine, and a beer machine.

    • THE KABUL HOSTEL

    If you want to be in the center of the city, close by The Ramblas, you can go to this hostel. Is located in Plaza Real and this square is full of bars but the ambient is not always very good.
