Very nice crew at this budget hotel. The price is very attractive and here you have everything you need near the airport. They don't offer transfer but you can go by taxi and probably also by bus to the airport. There is also a cheap restaurant available for a good buffet.

This was where we stayed on contiki for two nights. I thought this was a really nice hostel. The rooms were nice (two bunk beds) and a balcony and a real decent sized bathroom, free wifi and there was a cool grand stand room where u could watch tv ( the Spain vs France football game was on, June 2012)

Had to spend a night on a transfer from Barcelona el prat and found this hostel which is suppose to be close to the airport, which technically is, but watch out, taxis charge you a minimum fare of 20€ to get from airport to there and than another 15€ back to airport. Bottom line, don't know how convenient is if... More

This is a youth hostel - so it should be evaluated on youth hostel s' scale rather than on hotels' scale. Located in a neighborhood about 10 minutes drive form Barcelona International airport. NOT A WALKING DISTANCE! Surely not at night!!! If you arrive by car - you can park (free) on the street or use the parking lot at... More

We stayed here for only one night and it was very good stay. Hostel is nice, close to airport, with bus, even in night. Rooms are big, huge bathroom, nice area. Front desk staff was helpful. If you need hotel close to airport and easy to reach, this is good choice for less money.

This palce is a good choise if you have an early or late fligh from EL Prat airport. You can easily access it from the airport (bus PR1 just ask the driver when to get off). The buiding itself is quite interesting, modern and clean. Rooms are spaciousa and comfortable. I really enjoyed my stay there.

Esplai Centre is a modern hostel located near the airport of El Prat in Barcelona. It's hard to get to him by walking on the road because there is no pavement. The rooms haven’t TV but it is access to free wireless Internet. Rooms are air-conditioned and in good weather you can relax on the balcony. The hostel offers free... More

I stayed here for a short conference. It's very modern (opened 2007?) with an unusual design. Obviously designed mainly for groups. Rooms are clean and simple, and beds comfortable (if a bunk bed can ever be described that way). Food OK. The corridors can be noisy at night and the sound carries. For a relatively cheap hostel it is good.
