- Christian (10/5): - Hola! fue genial mi estancia en el Hostal El Cascabel, tiene muy buena ubicación para conocer la ciudad y la zona antigua de Granada. El personal, Andrea me trataron como si estuviera en casa. todo super!
- Peña (10/5): - La amabilidad y el buen trato Nada, todo muy bien
- Brian (10/5): Home away from home - I loved staying at this hostel!! It’s right in the heart of the city. You walk out the door and minutes within everything. The beds were very comfortable, clean sheets, outlets, lights and a privacy curtain. SUPPORT YOUR LOCALLY OWNED HOSTELS!! You get a true sense of the spanish culture by staying with the locals. Staying here felt more like staying with a friend, than staying in a hostel. It was so relaxed and comfortable. The owner is such a nice guy and works onsite and his sidekick dog. I will absolutely stay here again when I’m visiting Granada.
- Nadia (10/5): - Me sentí como en casa realmente. El ambiente es relajado, cómodo, las personas del hostel siempre amables y con una sonrisa. Volvería sin dudas.
Las instalaciones súper bien, desde las camas hasta los baños! Ah, el el wifi impecable, tuve que trabajar y funcionó espectacular.
La cocina completa, lugar de reunión y charlas☺️
Gracias por tanto!
- elisa (9/5): - Impecable, cómoda la ubicación y el Hostel en sí. Me topé con muy buena gente!
- gong (6/5): Only for the one easy sleep. - The location was very good, is located old town but , between old and new town was very easy to walk around, only. 10 to 20 minutes walk to the train station. You get what you pay. Staff were lovely, helpful. Speaking English as well. Make life lot easy. We have two nights, unfortunately these nights were greatly effected by the loud noise from night club goers Socialised out side of club, which the hostel happened to right next building. We can not sleep until early morning. We noticed hostel provided earplugs in the room. Again you get what you pay for.
- Athulya (8/5): -
- Sylvain (10/5): - Très bon accueil, tenus des personnes avec buena onda :)
Les espaces collectifs sont agréables et conviviaux. Un repas (végétarien et gratuit) avait été organisé par l'auberge ce qui a facilité les rencontres. Services proposés pour avoir une serviette, ou le nettoyage de ses vêtements à des prix très raisonnable (respectivement 1 et 5e).
Une auberge humaine et chaleureuse que je recommande les yeux fermés !
Muchas gracias para todos! Allez histoire de dire quelquechose : peut être penser à changer la poire à douche du RDV qui avait tendance à fuir lorsque j'y étais 😅
- Roldán (9/5): - La experiencia fue muy buena,nos alojamos en la habitación privada ,el ambiente es genial y el personal muy amable y cercano .La terraza perfecta para relajarse y disfrutar .la ubicación inmejorable , sin duda volveremos en nuestra proxima visita
- kadriye (10/5): Tekrar yolum düşse tekrar burayı tercih ederim - Çok sıcak bir ortamı vardı, zamanım yoktu ama terasta vakit geçiremediğim için üzüldüm. Personel kadın çok tatlı ve yardımcıydı. Konumu çok güzeldi. Dibindeki bara gidemedim ama konum süper. Yolum düşerse kalacağım yer kesin burası. 6 kişilik oda yataklar geniş ve rahattı ama 2 erkek çok horladığı için uyuyamadım
- Marco (8/5): - Posizione
- Anna.Naeuropa (8/5): -
- Lepine (7/5): Bon emplacement - L'emplacement pour les visites L'hôtel est près d'un bar qui ferme à 3h du matin
Entre 1 h et 3 h beaucoup de bruit
- Eduardo (8/5): -
- Nadège (10/5): Super expérience ! - Le personnel est adorable (mention spéciale à Joanna qui a été de très bons conseils), les lits sont très confortables (avec des petits rideaux sur certains d’entre eux qui favorisent l’intimité).
En terme d’emplacement, c’est simple: on ne peut pas faire mieux.
L’isolation est plutôt bien faite, nous n’entendions pas beaucoup le bruit venant de l’extérieur.
Enfin, les chambres et espaces communs sont très propres !
On s’y sent comme à la maison, je recommande à 100% :)
- Clotilde (9/5): Muy amables y cómodo - Muy amable, cómodo. Relación precio aceptable. Merece mejorar las instalaciones.

- Amine (8/5): -
- Ignacio (5/5): -
- Jennifer (9/5): Excelente - Lugar cómodo, céntrico y súper económico lo único fue que la litera que me tocó la agarradera estaba un poco floja
- Mariapaola (4/5): Non lo sceglierei se dovessi ritornare - Onestamente mi ha deluso. Fortunatamente si è trattato solo di una notte. Salvo solo il materasso, che era comodo e la posizione. Capisco sia un dormitorio , ma veramente piccolo. Servizi sempre occupati e non tanto puliti a mio avviso. Un episodio increscioso poi è aver chiesto la custodia degli zaini prima del check-out, con la promessa che all’arrivo del personale lo avrebbero presi dalla camera, in quanto sono uscita presto la mattina, invece al rientro erano rimasti lì sul letto in camera, quindi con la possibilità di essere derubate. Mi è stato risposto che non c’era posto per depositare in custodia. Onestamente non lo trovo affatto corretto!
- Piotr (10/5): -
- Sauvik (10/5): Amazing location, warm staff, great value for money - Centrally located, cozy and cute hostel - with an extremely friendly and warm staff. Really gives the feeling of a family-run place. Lots of flexible options - like renting towels for super cheap (we forgot ours!) and storing our luggage for the entire day of checkout since we had a late evening flight. Extremely good value for money, good cafes + restaurants + teahouses + flamenco clubs in the neighborhood! Walking distance to the Cathedral and center.
- Salomon (10/5): Great hostel with a welcoming vibe, had a grest time here -

- Julio Cesar (8/5): - La indicaciones claras del personal encargado y la ubicación del Hostel
- Ryan (10/5): Tremendous - Great vibe and awesome staff! There is a cozy rooftop terrace and a guitar on site for use. Would not hesitate to book as my first choice in Granada. N/A
- Jessica (6/5): -
- Raquel Maria (10/5): Everything you need in a cute hostel! - The staff was really nice! And the kitchen was everything you need! The rooms were really nice (a little bit smal but not an issue for me), curtains, lamp and plug. The location is great! Close to centre and Alambra.
Also social hostel! Had a great time! It was a little bit a challenge to find the hostel. But for the rest nothing to complain about.
- CHRISTIAN (9/5): - Bien situé, agréable et personnel très sympathique La qualité de l'oreiller
- Javier (8/5): Tranquilidad e intimidad - Muy de agradecer las cortinas de las camas que te permiten tener intimidad en las habitaciones compartidas y la ubicación del hostal es genial, muy cerca de todo, 10/10

- Reg B (10/5): Wonderful place to stay - Atmosphere, very helpful and pleasant management and staff Kitchen is locked at night, early checkout meant I couldn't get my bottle juice purchased specifically for this next leg
- Raj (10/5): I loved the location.. right on a lively street with amazing cheap food and shopping. The hostel feels cozy, homely, an - The location is fantastic.. on one of the liveliest streets in Granada, right next to a popularbar, yest still quiet with cheap, tasty food and interesting shopping right outside the door.
The hostel itself feels cozy, homely, and extremely social. I came for a week and stayed 15 days, meeting amazing artists, having long conversations, and even discussing collaborations. The terrace has a warm, artistic vibe that encourages connection, and I’d love to see that kind of atmosphere extended throughout the building. Small touches like incense or visual accents could make the whole space even more welcoming and travelerfriendly.
The kitchen is another social hub.. tight when busy but never uncomfortable, always clean, with free food and long access hours. Dorms are cozy but not claustrophobic, and having your own key makes coming and going effortless.
The staff is exceptional.. warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. They make you feel like you’re hanging out with friends rather than staying at a hostel.
The biggest highlight for me was that they welcomed my puppy in the dorm room. She was allowed on the bed for just €5 once, with no extra charges later, and both staff and guests treated her with genuine care. As a solo traveler, this made my stay far more comfortable and connected.. Due to it being in an old building in tje city centee, the spaces can feel tight... an Indoor hangout options (besides the super social and stories filled kitchen) would be great during colder months, since the terrace is weather-dependent. The hostel wouldnlook even more cool with more artistic touches, pleasant scents to make the whole building as cozy, welcoming, and traveler-friendly as the terrace.
- maximiliano (10/5): -
- Lanza (10/5): - Un posto fantastico nel cuore del Albayzin. Accoglienza super, camera silenziosa, letti nuovi e comodi. Incontri interessanti.. Artisti, viaggiatori, volontari e host.. Top!
- Shahed (2/5): Espero que esto de solucione, el personal esta bien. - Está bien ubicado La cama era muy incomoda y se movía al hacer el mínimo movimiento

- DUBER JAMES (9/5): Granada Ciudad universitaria, barato casi todo y el clims - Saludos me gusto la Ciudad de Granada muy tranquila y todo a muy precio dentro de la ciudad El pivo tiempo que estuve en la viudad jajaja
- Melisa (10/5): Un hostel buena onda 💜 - Lo más lindo fue el ambiente! Muy cálido, te hace sentir como en casa. Mucho diálogo entre distintas culturas El wifi no andaba bien
- Tyouriquine (10/5): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Séjour excellent - I had a very pleasant stay at this hostel 🌟.
The location is ideal, the kitchen equipment is really practical 🍽️, especially the packs offered by the hotel.
The bed was very comfortable 🛏️ and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming 😊❤️.
Honestly, nothing to say about the overall quality — everything was perfect!
💡 Small suggestions for improvement:
To make the experience even better, it would be great to have a bit more space for amenities in the hotel, as the small kitchen corner and the terrace are not quite enough.
Adding some hooks or coat racks to hang jackets and towels 🧥🛁 would also be very practical to help guests keep their things organized.
Thank you again for the warm welcome and the quality of the service 🙏✨
I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back with pleasure!

- MELDA ANIL (8/5): ok for a short stay - Location was good. Cleaning was good. Staff was helpful. reception is not 24 hour. After midnight a guy came into the room and he was drunk. He was cursing and talking out loud to himself. I did not feel myself safe.
- Bourhioul (10/5): - Super

- Rocío (8/5): Bien pero ruidoso - La amabilidad de los recepcionistas. Limpieza y ubicación Mucho ruido en la calle por el bar de enfrente, mucho murmullo hasta altas horas de la noche, no pudimos descansar bien.
- Aidan (10/5): -
- javier (8/5): - La atención del personal,la ubicación y la relación calidad precio Hay un pub al lado y sobre la medianoche se pone un poco ruidoso
- Mevlut (9/5): - Tesisin konumu muhteşemdi. Sağında solunda yemek yiyeceğiniz bir sürü Arap mutfağı. Sonra yataklarda perde olması. Banyolarında duş başlığının sabit olmamasını. Odaların birazcık havalandirması yetersizdi. Onun dışında her şey gayet güzeldi.
- Mustafa (10/5): - It was so clean, staff were just amazing and location is great
- Hughie (10/5): - Really loved staying here at Cascabel, the hostel has a really nice vibe, like a home away from home, the staff are amazing, beautiful terrace to hang out, oven to cook a pizza or what you want, it's only 5 euros to do your washing and dry your clothes on the terrace 10 out of 10 all day. Really lovely hostel, probably the best in Granada and that's because of all the staff

- diaz (8/5): Recomendable - Lo que más me gustó de este hostal fue su ubicación, pues a pie se puede llegar muy fácilmente a los sitios de más interés como la catedral o El Albaicín. Además, el personal es muy amistoso y atento. Lo recomendará porque la relación calidad-precio está muy bien. Justo en la trasera del hostal hay un bar,y en una de las noches algunos clientes de ese negocio estuvieron haciendo bastante ruido fuera.
- lp (10/5): - El personal supeeeer agradable. Sin duda volveré se siente más un hogar que un hostel. Muy acompañada por la gente con la que convives.
- aeihou (9/5): Recomendado para viajeros socializando. - La familiaridad entre el personal y los huéspedes, su cocina y terraza. Favores de recibir correspondencia. La calle Elvira es muy ruidosa, hasta las 3am .
- Sofia (7/5): - La ubicación, y la limpieza de la habitación, que era una individual con baño incluido La cama es bastante incomoda, y el ruido constante de la terraza en horas nocturnas
- Ailen (10/5): Es como estar en familia - El ambiente familiar Nada
