Guest Reviews
- Ignacia (8/5): - Muy buen servicio, todo limpio, buena ubicación y actividades interesantes. Personal muy agradable.
- Jose (9/5): - El excelente Personal Las escaleras demasiadas para personas mayores
- Ephraim (10/5): -
- Emmacita (9/5): -
- Daniel (10/5): Chill hostel - Great location, positive vibes, friendly staff, safe, clean and quiet. I heard the prices become extortionate in July and August which isn't really fair but probably common practice in this city.
- RodrigoAlv71 (10/5): -
- Pitter Corrales (10/5): -
- Davide (8/5): -
- Luiz Gabriel (9/5): - The installations are very good and clean. It's a nice value considering the extremely good location. Two turns and you're at the Barcelona Cathedral! It's a shared accommodation, so your experience depends on the people you get sorted with.
- David (10/5): Decent hostel, great location. - Very cosy. For a hostel it was top tier. Nothing
- renate (8/5): - Freundliches Personal, gute Lage Kein Fenster für frische Luft
- Marija (9/5): -
- Mehdi (10/5): -
- Hugues (7/5): I met great customers people . The place was nice and everything but Stefano was unfair he should be replaced. St - Everything despite the italian receptionist Stefano who is rude The italian receptionist Stefano is rude beware of him !
Despite Iru , Eugenia, Gabrielle were very nice !
- João (8/5): -
- Nika (9/5): / - Cucina ben fornita e pulita. Staff accogliente e disponibile. Design delle camere e corridoi unico. /
- Chris (10/5): Perfect place to hang in Barcelona! - Great location, super staff, awesome events, clean Nothing
- Vsevolod (7/5): -
- Mathilde (9/5): Super hostel, très recommandé - Les propositions d'activités en groupe, le fait de pouvoir rejoindre un groupe whatsapp pour échanger, la bonne ambiance entre les voyageurs Le lieu est tellement sympa qu'on pourrait s'attendre à avoir serviettes et savons à disposition. Mais ça reste un hostel, pas un hôtel.
- KIMJONGSUK (10/5): - Clean accommodation 전혀 없음
- Genesis Sanchez (8/5): -
- Suzan (7/5): - Konumu cok merkezi her yere yuruyerek gittik. Sabahın 4ünde çok gürültü geliyordu mutfaktan mı bilmiyorum ama uyutmadı.

- Quintana (4/5): - No es limpio ,los baños y las duchas necesitan una limpieza más frecuente.
El personal es muy amable , cálido y son personas increíbles. La poca limpieza.
- Kapil (10/5): -
- Nicolò (10/5): -
- Agne (10/5): Wonderful accomoda
tion - Hostel has everything you might need. Spotless clean. Staff exceptionaly friendly and helpful. Privacy curtains gives you a little personal room separating you from neigbours and big light.🙂 And location is fantastic! As were is no sound insulation from other rooms, silence hours could be monitored a little bit and enforced when needed (like loud chats until 4am).
- Tadas (8/5): - Great location, friendly staff A bit uncomfortable beds
- Fabienne (9/5): Bon séjour à Itaca hostel, très bon emplacement… -
- Jingwei (10/5): -
- João (10/5): Uma experiência incrível, ótima localização, funcionários super atenciosos! - Localização excelente e atendimento muito bom! Sempre buscando proporcionar boas experiências para os hospedes Gostei de tudo
- Luca (9/5): -
- naomi (10/5): 心豊かに過ごした時間 - まず、ロケーションが最高です。清潔で、居心地が良く、コストパフォーマンスも優れています。スタッフのみなさんもフレンドリーで過ごしやすかったです。
そして、キッキン&ダイニングの設備が充実していたので、
毎日、近くのスーパーマーケットで新鮮な食材を買い、朝と夜は自炊しました。ご飯を炊いてスペインの材料で工夫して、日本食(タコ飯🐙と焼き鮭)を楽しむこともでき、とても、贅沢な旅になったと思います。
- anne (10/5): Top - La localisation et l'accueil
- Aurore (9/5): -
- Aurore (9/5): Formidable. Je reviendrai - L'emplacement, le personnel très gentil, le mieu propre, fonctionnel et convivial Deux personnes dans la chambre n'étaient pas très respectueuses et ont fait beaucoup de bruit la nuit, parlaient et allumaient la lumiere, ouvraient le balcon et au petit matin quand elles sont partis n'ont fait aucun effort pour etre discrètes mais on choisit pas les autres visiteurs.

- Paul (9/5): - Sanitaires et espaces communs récents et très propres, grand casier individuel avec cadenas dans la chambre, lit équipé d’un rideau.
Accueil sympathique dans cette auberge de jeunesse à taille humaine.
- Lucija (9/5): -
- Sebastián (8/5): - El personal, muy buenas personas. Recepción 24 hs. Estaba muy limpio y tenía una cocina muy completa y equipada. La cama era suficientemente cómoda. El baño compartido estaba muy limpio y las instalaciones eran correctas Bastante caro el precio de la habitación, en relación al tamaño del lugar.. La habitación se me hizo pequeña. Tiene una sala de lectura pequeña, pero muy prolija y acogedora
- Chris (10/5): Wonderful - Super friendly staff, really helped me when unfortunately my phone went missing. Always put on lots of nice things for guests to do and ways to meet each other. Great location, clean beds, bathrooms and kitchen. Very small thing, but most beds have curtains on them but mine didn't. If all beds could have curtains on them that would make a big difference! That aside though it was a brilliant stay and I'd 100% come back to Itaca when I next visit Barcelona.

- Собко (6/5): - Расположение хостела отличное, в самом центре, в пешей доступности все. Комнаты душные, почти нет места для вещей, слышно все, что происходит во всех комнатах, нет часов тишины, поспать вообще не возможно.
- rissetti cabrera (8/5): Gran experiencia - Muy buen lugar superó todas mis expectativas, el personal, baño, limpieza, espacios compartidos, realmente muy bien todo. He estado en varios hostales o lugares de este tipo y creo que es uno de los mejores sin duda, lo unico quizás a comentar si alguien tiene grandes maletas o peso, para llegar a las habitaciones se tiene que subir escaleras, 2 pisos aprox, por lo que será algo desafiante pero seguro vale la pena.
- Renzo (8/5): Great base to explore the city, very central. Great kitchen facilities with some complimentary tea and coffee. - It’s a great location in the Gothic quarter right next to the Barcelona Cathedral. Nothing, property was good.
- Ross (8/5): -
- Haran Raj (8/5): - Location, cleanliness and comfortable Client Engagement can be better
- Haran Raj (8/5): -

- Tomasz (9/5): - Hostel blisko centrum 👌
- Mahfoud (9/5): -
- Taylor (9/5): One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in - One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in! Clean, comfortable, friendly, social, and in an unbeatable location in Barcelona. I especially loved the easy-to-join group chat which gave us activities to do every day, and the lovely common room which was so cosy and comfortable. The kitchen and balconies are also a huge bonus, and the bathrooms were very clean. Loved also that everyone got a locker and that each bed had a privacy curtain, reading light and charging ports. The only thing I struggled with was noise - there was construction noise on the street which wasn’t their fault, but it was also easy to hear people talking through the walls while trying to sleep. To Itaca’s credit, they close the common area at midnight to try to stop sleep disturbances, but sound still carries through the space from the kitchen and through the walls; and I think they may need to enforce the post-10pm quiet policy more strictly (at least in bedroom areas).
- thierry (8/5): Très bonne emplacement et le personnel très cool - Convivialité La porte d’entrée est toujours fermé en journée.
- Kseniia (7/5): I wanted to try hostel once in my life and would never again:) - Great location Type of stay not for me , although everyone is trying to be quiet, anyway it’s hard to stay with other people in one room. But location is awesome and this option can be great match for students travelling to Barcelona . Staff is great, hostel is clean and bed is comfy, just be ready that you will not sleep great as everyone start to make noises early .

- Veronika (7/5): - Pobyt hodnotím celkom dobre. Poloha je skvelá, v centre mesta. Ak však hľadáte súkromie, toto ubytovanie nie je pre vás. Ak hľadáte nových známych, tak tu je priestor na zoznámenie sa s novými ľuďmi vďaka aktivitám, ktoré ubytovanie poskytuje. Výhodou je aj kuchyňa a milý a ochotný prístup hostiteľa. O čistotu sa tu starajú priebežne každý deň.
- Tzachi (9/5): -
- JuanLescano (10/5): - La atención y las recomendaciones de lugares fueron excelentes
- André Luís (7/5): - Localização e simpatia dos recepcionistas. Do banho ser compartilhado sendo que reservei um quarto com banheiro privativo. Banheiro tinha no quarto, mas para banho tinha que ser o compartilhado. Tinha que ficar mais claro isso.
- Valeria Viviana (10/5): -
- Shpëtim (10/5): I felt at 🏡 - The place is very pleasant and central, which makes moving or getting around easy. Also, the staff is highly professional, friendly and helpful. I was really impressed.
