Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location, in walking distance to many of Tarragona's historic sites and it's many bars and restaurants. The apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay for the two of us. Communication with the host was very good.

    Fantastic location, right by a beautiful square. The hostel is above a restaurant which serves cheap food. The room and bathroom were really clean and we had fresh towels and beds made during our 2 night stay.
