About
Unite Hostel Barcelona
Unite Hostel Barcelona sits on Avinguda Icaria, a quiet street roughly 15 minutes on foot from the beach and the Port Olímpic area. The neighbourhood is residential but well connected: the nearby metro and bus stops link to the city centre and main sights. Guests here tend to be a mix of solo travellers, digital nomads, and families, drawn by the calm setting and practical facilities.
The hostel spreads over six floors with a shared kitchen and laundry in the basement and a lounge on the second floor. Beyond the basics, there is a co-working space with PCs, a yoga area, a sun terrace, and even a piano in one of the communal rooms. Rooms range from private doubles to 8-bed dorms, all with air conditioning and heating. Breakfast is served daily for a fee, and a snack bar covers lighter cravings.

8Verified guest“Location was spot on, just a short walk to the beach. The co-working space was a nice touch and having PCs available was handy. The yoga area was a calm spot to unwind. Free lockers in the room kept my stuff safe. Breakfast wasn't included but it was tasty and came out fresh each morning. There's also a cheap cafeteria nearby for lunch. Great value, and it works for both solo travellers and families.”
8Verified guest“Staff were welcoming and really helpful. The room was clean and roomy with plenty of space for luggage. The location was peaceful, just a quick walk to the beach and Port Olímpic, and well connected to the centre via the metro and bus. It felt safe, with security at night. No alcohol allowed on site.”
8Verified guest“Great spot near the beach, clubs, and restaurants. Six floors, with the kitchen and laundry in the basement and a cosy hang-out area on the second. Staff were friendly and the rooms felt modern with private bathrooms. Two minutes to the beach, and the co-working space made it easy to get work done.”
8Verified guest“One of the best value options in the city. Rooms are well thought out, with extras like a co-working space and a piano, perfect for digital nomads or music lovers. It's on a quiet street on the sixth floor, so you sleep well despite the city noise. Breakfast is top quality and reasonably priced.”
8Verified guest“Had a fantastic stay. The social area is big and inviting, great for relaxing and meeting people. Staff were friendly and the 24-hour reception was always staffed. Location was good, about a 20-minute walk to the beach. Rooms were comfortable with USB plugs, lights, and outlets by the bed. Bright room and the locker gave me personal space. Bathrooms were clean, and the motion-sensor light inside the room was a thoughtful detail. They even ran activities like yoga and movie nights.”
8Verified guest“Loved my stay here. The value is hard to beat—affordable rates with careful attention to detail. The location on a quiet street but close to everything. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms on level two were very spacious with en-suite bathrooms, plus a piano and co-working space.”
