Nice stay and suitable for families
Family of 4 staying for 1 night. Obviously this hostel is more targeted at younger travellers who are used to basic hostel facilities but nevertheless the stay was pleasant and offered almost everything we needed as a family with young kids. Most importantly it was spotlessly clean, in a good location, and a good price compared to many other places in Barcelona. Breakfast offer was cheap and decent to start the day. The roof terrace was fantastic with brilliant views of the surrounding area. Minor grumbles would be the need to buy towels and the push button on the sink tap with no temperature control but I appreciate this is pretty standard in many hostels and I can understand the logic so it wasn’t a massive issue. The free lockers after we checked out were really helpful as we had later flights so had some time to kill during the day we were leaving. All in all I would say it was a great stay and suitable for families of all ages as long as you manage your expectations.

Hello Andrew, thank you very much for your comment! We're glad you had a good stay with your family and you enjoyed your holidays in Barcelona. In Twentytú we try to offer our best services to create nice moments for your family. We receive a lot of kind of people from all over the world, not only young people, also more families, friends, sport people and old people. As we are a Hostel we don't include the towels service, this is a service from the Hotels, it's different. But you can rent it in our 24 hour reception for a good price.We regret your comment about the temperature of tap water, but we're a sustainable Hostel and we use the technology to contribute with the environment, so we use the resources in a good way.Come back soon family, Twentytú Hostel is your home ;)

Good but need improvements
The hostel is nice. Friendly staff. The rooms are really small for a group of 4 with 4 bags. Seriously. Not comfortable. Location is good, but you have to walk a lot to get to the good neighborhoods in Barcelona.

Hello Cynthia, thank you to comment us! We're glad you enjoyed your stay in general, we try to offer the best services to make our guests feel at home and comfortable.Our rooms are thought only to sleep and to use the private bathroom and shower, because we offer big common areas to live nice experiences. We consider we are located in strategic location in Barcelona: in 15 minutes, by walk, you arrive to the beach; Sagrada Familia is 20 minutes by walk; the city center is only in 3 stops by undreground.Hope to see you again soon ;)

Mediocre at best
It does the job as far as a hostel goes, but isn't a pleasant overall experience. Room when we got there wasn't clean and there was sand encrusted all over the floor. Air conditioning for our room didn't work at all the whole weekend even though it is advertised online and in a placard in the room. The real issue was the two guys at the front desk were so unbelievably rude to some of us, one of them making fun of us when we had an issue and just being overall unhelpful. If you can find another place to stay, do it. This place isn't great.

Hello! First of all, we don’t understand why you didn’t tell us anything about it to our reception, we work 24 hour and we work everyday to resolve all the problems that could happen. Our rooms are cleaned everyday, and our common areas the same because our cleaning team is working full day. We regret the incident with the air conditioning, but we could have solved it at the moment when you were here, we don’t understand why you are telling it now. In addition, you have to know that our technological system stops the air conditioning when you open the window.Twentytú team is friendly and kind, so we don’t believe you when you say our receptionists are rude because our main work is help our guests.We hope next time you can see us in a different way ;)

Response from Twentytú Team on Jul 6, 2023
Hello leiliani, we regret that you didn't appreciate our sustainable actions to contribute to the environment and the planet. Therefore we give importance to the responsible use of the consumption of all resources, in this case water, one of the most necessary goods for the survival of human beings and which is becoming increasingly scarce. Currently, climate change has caused different impacts on the water cycle, which is why there are many droughts, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and changes in rainfall and snowfall. These impacts depend on the uses that humans make of water, since we consume more water than we can afford, for example, during a shower we use an average of 15-20 liters per minute, which is equivalent to the same amount that a person drinks in 50 days. Therefore, we consider that with the timer of our showers we make a good use of water consumption and, thus, we contribute to the planet to conserve as much water as possible.Our light timer system is the same, we consider that you can see in the night with the small lights on the wall. In addition, at 0.00h is time to go to sleep and to respect the rest of the other guests.

Ok for a hostel not a hotel.
This is a hostel not a hotel. Set your expectations accordingly. Towel “rental” costs $4 a piece extra. Sheets are provided but you make your own bed with the provided sheets. No soap, no shampoo. Shower is a gym style shower that turns off every 17 seconds so you have to constantly press the shower button every few seconds to keep it from turning off. Didn’t apply to us because we rented an entire room but they did have individual lockers that opened with your room key if you were renting just a single bed in a multibed room. Also, had a nice common area on the roof. Would recommend as a hostel but probably not as a hotel. We were traveling with 4 people though and there are not that many 4 person hotel rooms available in the area.

Hello Jonathan, thank you to comment us! We’re glad you liked our rooftop, we hope you had a good holidays, for us it’s very important to offer the best services to make our guests feel at home and comfortable. Twentytú is a Hostel, we are not a Hotel, you can see in our name “Twentytú HOSTEL”, so we offer the services included in Hostels, not in Hotels. It’s important to be well informed about the kind of accommodation you are booking because all services that you are claiming aren’t included in Hostels. You can read all this information about our services in Twentytú Hostel profile in Expedia website, and you can see our pictures.So, the towels are never included in Hostels, so we consider 4 is a good price for rent. The same happens with the amenities, it is not included, but you can buy it in our 24 hour reception. In all the hostels you have to make your own bed, we are not a Hotel. We hope next time you'll see us in a better way ;)

I wouldn't not recommend to anyone. This was the worst night I have in a hotel for me and my family. Let's begin. First you get to the hotel room go to the restroom and the trash can completed full of garbage and not clean. Listen to this. You have to make your own bed because is just a mattress and just be informed you want to take a shower you have to rent the towel. Yes rent a towel? Are you serious . Yes that's the way this hotel work. No Soap no towel "YOU HAVE TO BUY EVERYTHING. It wasn't cheap . It cost me more than 400 Euro for two closet sized rooms. One night and really far away from airport.Let's Continue. They claim eco-friendly because they said they put new UV filter. None of the rooms you can't feel the AC. No microwave or TV in the rooms. All the noise from the outside you can hear it. They claim have free internet but i wasn't able to connect to the internet.Rooms extremely narrow no place to put your stuff. If you want to ruin your vacation go this place and you will see what I said here.

Hello! We regret you have this opinion about us, we think this doesn't represent us, we have been working for 10 years to offer the best services to our guests.The first thing you have to know is that Twentytú is a Hostel, we aren't a Hotel, so we offer the services included in this kind of accommodation. In Hostels the towels and the soaps aren't included, but you can buy it in our 24hour reception. The same thing happens with the bed service, in Hostels the guests have to make their own bed.In Twentytú our rooms are thought only to sleep and to take a shower, because we have big common areas to enjoy with your friends or family. The quadruple rooms don't include television, because we've it in the chill out common area, and you can use microwave in the kitchen. All of this information is included in our Expedia profile, we don't understand your complaint about all these aspects, all this is explained and shown in pictures.We're classified as a eco and sustainable Hostel because we've installed high technology and we make a lot of actions to protect the environment. About the ultraviolet filter, it's a sanitization air conditioning system which eliminates bacterias and virus and the only way to see it is to turn off the lights in the room, you'll see a purple light coming out of the air conditioner, you can't hear it, it's a filter, it doesn't make any noise.The quadruple room's price was 160/night but you'll book it through an intermediary, Expedia, and for this there is an additional cost. However, it's high season in Barcelona, one of the most important cities in Europe, so the prices are higherWe don't understand why you found the room with full of rubbish, our cleaning team is working every day to keep everything clean and tidy.About the noises, in Twentytú Hostel we try to create the best atmosphere and to be in silence, we receive a lot of kind of travellers from around the world, but sometimes it's impossible to control all of them. The last thing, we're located close to the city center, close to the beach and close to Sagrada Familia, so it's impossible to be close to the airport because it isn't in the Barcelona city, it's outside.We hope next time you'll see us in another way ;)

Hostel conditions; hotel prices. Not best location
Very nice front desk staff. Helpful. Always available. 24/7. Many places on hotels.com as hotel options had limited check-in hours and didn’t have 24-7 staff. We needed flexibility. The area has lots of sites under construction and there was a lot of dust blowing sometimes which actually caused an eye issue for one of us. You can walk from here during the day but the streets are very empty and many buildings seem always shuttered or are shuttered with graffitied shutters down weekends or after hours. It’s not a vibrant restaurant social area so be careful and walk with someone. We felt better taking taxis after dusk. on weekends and after business hours as b Very expensive. €200+ for a 4 bunk family room per night (it was busy tourist season so it’s cheaper other times). They try to get extra money off you at any excuse. €4 per little towel; €6 per bag to hold a bag overnight; €1.30 in vending machine for water that’s €1 in machines elsewhere. No shampoo. Broken furniture. No coffee tea for sale or available except they can sell it to you during breakfast hours for €1.70. Big fridge in shared kitchen was not keeping food cold. Fridge wasn’t available for 12+ hours another day. The reason we had booked this place was for kitchen access as a family member has allergies and needed fridge access for special food.

Hello, thank you for your comment about our staff, in Twentytú Hostel we work hard everyday to make our guests feel at home. About the constructions, we're located in 22@ district, the technological area in Barcelona which is growing up everyday to be better, but we can't do anything about it, it's an external issue. this area is characterized by large companies, but there are restaurants and a shopping mall nearby. It's a very safe area and very close to city center.About the prices, now it's summer time and high season in Barcelona and all the prices are very high in everywhere. In addition, Barcelona is one of the most popular cities in Europe, so prices depend on the demand.Twentytú is classified as a Hostel, we aren't a Hotel, so we offer the services included in this kind of accommodation. So, towels and amenities are not included in the hostels services, but you can buy it for a good prices in our 24 hour reception. Also, not all the Hostels have a coffee machines during all day. Normally, you have to pay for the lockers in everywhere, but our lockers service it's free during the day. Only if you have to keep the luggage more than one day the price is 6. but we consider this is normal and very common.The vending machine that we have offers the standard prices established by the machine company, which are the same at the national level.If you consider that there're some furniture broken, we are 24 hours in reception to help you in everything you need, our maintenance team are working everyday to keep everything in good condition.About the fridge, we apologize for those 12 hours that we could not use it, but we consider it necessary for a good maintenance of the refrigerator. However, it cools perfectly, we don't understand your comment that it doesn't cool.We hope next time you'll see us in a different way ;)Twentytú Team

Hotel in Twentytu in Barcelona
Hotel doesn't offer towels or soap you have to pay extra for it, lots of mosquitos in the lobby, lights wouldn't turn on after hours in my room, shower faucet had to be turn ON every 5 seconds, the Hotel itself is located in the hood, hotel has no standard rules, there was a man without shoes and shirt in the lobby as if he was at the beach, we asked a staff person for a restaurant near by and she said there was non but later we find out there was one in the same street next block. There were homeless leaving right next to the hotel, my family felt threaten by this. I truly hope Hotels.com reads this comments and remove this place from its website. No one should go thru this.

In Twentytú we've installed a technological system to reduce the environmental impact and to use the energy in a efficient way. So, our rooms have included a timer system: you can use the showers for 17 seconds and you can press again to use it the times that you want; in the shared rooms the lights are turned off between 0.00h until 08.00am to respect the rest of our guests. Our staff is working everyday in our 24h reception to make our guests to feel at home and to help in every problems that can happen.

Great experience!
We booked TwentyTú Hostel at the last minute because we missed a night of our trip.... and then we didn't want to leave to go to our other accommodations! The rooftop common area was beautiful (day and night) and we didn't experience any crowding in the times we used it. The downstairs common room was well furnished, complete with different areas and decorative walls. There is space to cook, store, and eat your own food as well. As a "green" hostel, the most annoying thing was the lights and water on timers in the bathrooms in order to save on electricity and water waste- but even that was for good reason. The space felt a little small for four people but it encouraged use of the common areas. The locker space was efficient and there were even drawers underneath our bunks for bonus storage. The receptionist when we checked in picked up on a little bit of Spanish mixed in with our English and offered to explain details in Spanish to help us practice (while still making sure everything made sense). We loved our stay at the TwentyTú Hostel and would definitely come stay here again!

Not a fan
Stayed in a four bed private dorm and would not recommend it if you like your own space. Our own bunk bed was the only space you got, the room was narrow and small. The toilet light is on a timer. The bathroom tap is on a short ten second timer, and the shower turns off every seventeen seconds. If you bash the shower button every few seconds you can keep it going, but it’s so frustrating regardless. The staff were nice, but based on all the ‘efficency’ stuff the hostel was a pain in the ass to actually stay in. Make sure you bring your own towel, otherwise you will be charged per towel to rent, and they don’t have bath mats either. It is also ‘forbidden’ to eat and drink in your room, and you have to purchase soaps and shampoos from reception if you want any. In a private room we found this ridiculous. Location was good, walkable distance to everything we wanted, but considering it was close to the same price as a hotel to stay in, I highly do not recommend it.

Hola Alicia, thanks for coming and for leaving us a review it really helps us to improve our service. Our top priority is customer's satisfaction so it makes us very sad you did not enjoy your stay as much as we'd like to. As you already mentioned we work very hard to be environmentally friendly, that's why we set a timer on taps to reduce water (among others). We would like to remind you that we are a hostel and not a hotel, which means we offer less commodities and our philosophy is based on sharing. This includes sharing rooms, bringing your own towel, shampoo and any other toiletries you need. We hope to see you again so you can turn into a fan of us :)

A decent place for a short stay in Spain
I got a private room for a colleague and myself while on a very short trip to Barcelona. The room was average, clean for a hostel. The breakfasts were lackluster and not too fulfilling. If I could do it again I would get a hotel for small additional cost which would provide us with much more comfort. I would recommend this place to people who are looking for the no-frill hostel experience.
Response from Twentytu Hostal on Jan 30, 2016
Dear Kevin, Thanks for your comment. In our Hostel the breakfast is free beacuse the price in the rooms is reasonable. We take your comment into account and we will keep working to offer a breakfast to the liking of everybody. The rooms of our hostel are intended only to rest and have the rest of common spaces to interact with other guests as this is the essence of a Hostel as Twentytú.

Clean hostel
Typically, one would choose to stay at a hostel because it is cheaper than a hotel but with TwentyTú, I'm not sure that's the case, since we ended up paying 185 GBP for 2 nights at a twin room. Would that have been much more expensive at a hotel? The best thing I can say about the room, and it is not a small thing, is that its cleanliness was outstanding. However, comfort-wise, the room was not much better than your average hostel, other than the fact that there were only 2 beds in the room. The beds were uncomfortable, the lights at the toilet room kept turning off automatically every 30 seconds or so. The shower water stopped every 17 seconds "to save water". And then the breakfast... It was included but I much rather pay extra for a better breakfast than the awful one we got. It was obvious they bought the cheapest products they could find because nothing tasted good. In summary, don't stay here unless it turns out to be at least 50% cheaper than the cheapest hotel rate you can find. It would be not worth the hassle otherwise.

I fled another hostel nearby to stay here. The staff were amazing, friendly and welcoming, even when you try to speak your rusty Spanish. The facilities were clean, modern and comfortable. The rooftop patio offers great views and a place to socialize or relax. The metro is a five minute walk away, or you can walk to all the key spots within 45 minutes if you prefer. The cafe next door is delightful. I hope this hostel can maintain this standard.\ Note, unlike some hostels, they do not have soap in the bathroom- you must bring your own or buy it on site.

Worth it
My only complaint was the room was very hot and because I was on fourth floors we couldn't open the window and no way to control the temperature in room.
Response from Head Receptionist on Aug 30, 2014
Thanks for your comment! The room window cannot be opened due to security reasons and to contribute to the energy saving. However, windows are opened daily during the room cleaning. TwentyTú is working to find other alternatives.

Great Location and Eco-Friendly
The location was great, being both near the beach and downtown (via Glories station). The only annoying things were that the showers and lights were on automatic timers and you could not open the windows. Also, if you are one who drinks hard liquors, beware that you can't have any alcohol in your room and no more than 23% in the common area. The luggage storage was great too!
Response from Head Receptionist on Aug 2, 2014
Thanks for the comment! The windows, lights and showers timers are there due to our eco-friendly policy but we try tomake it as less annoying as possible for our guests. Thanks again and hope to see you again at Twentytú!

Definitely a lively place to stay
This is very much a young person's hostel so anyone who thinks 10 O' Clock is bedtime might not find it peaceful enough. For a hostel, the rooms are very well equipped. We had our own bathroom, separate toilet and lock-up cupboards. There is a communal area in the basement containing a cafe, TV screens and plenty of internet access. The self-catering section is also perfectly adequate although we only made tea there.

A short cab into the city centre
Amazing staff and very clean. Only at 6€ cab ride into the main shopping and clubbing. Breakfast was simple and convenient. Food and drinks are not allowed in the rooms, but common areas were huge. Roof top was key for the views. Stay here!

ROOM IS SMALL, BREAKFAST IS PATHETIC
The price for hostle is really expensive, and the room is small and not friendly designed. The window can not open, the bathroom even no hand wash no garbage bin. The shower need to push the handle every 1 min to keep having the hot water. The breakfast only have slice bread and coffee, milk and fruit. The location is ok.
Response from Head Receptionist on Feb 15, 2014
In our Hostel the breakfast is already included in our economic room price. We take your comment into account and we will keep working to offer a breakfast to the liking of everybody. Due to our saving energy system policy and concern about the environment. To mantain the proper operation of the air conditioning system and heating, the windows can not be open apart from the cleaning shift every morning. The water of the showers turns automatically off every 15 seconds in order to avoid the waste of water. Twentytu hostel is a sustainable building,one of two in Barcelona,so we must accomplish some requirements.

Excellent value and great atmosphere
I loved it. The staff, the other guests, the facilities and the atmosphere. Service was quick and good, free wifi everywhere and a lovely roof terrace to relax on. Kitchen and lounge facilities good too. Clean, comfortable and enjoyable. And close to metro station to get around. Would highly recommend.

Posizione comoda, vicina a due linee metro (L1 e L4). Camera quadrupla con bagno davvero piccolina ma fortunatamente ci siamo stati poco. Spazi comuni molto carini. Non abbiamo trovato gli asciugamani e sebbene fosse specificato nei servizi della camera "biancheria in cotone egiziano" ho dovuto pagare 12€ extra per 3 asciugamani!

Voordelig geprijsd op een gunstige ligging
Hostel met luxe van een hotel. Gunstig gelegen bij zowel het centrum als het strand. Voordelig geprijsd. Enige verbeterpunt is het gebruik van zachtere matrassen.

Hola Elia, ¡muchas gracias por comentarnos! Nos alegramos de que hayáis tenido buena estancia, esperamos que hayáis disfrutado de vuestras vacaciones en Barcelona.No entendemos bien a lo que te refieres cuando hablas de los alrededores para poder mejorar. Si te refieres al barrio y los exteriores, actualmente nuestra calle está arreglada y con un buen ambiente tranquilo, pero esto no depende de nosotros.Volved pronto, os esperamos ;)
