About

Designed with young travelers in mind, Onefam is where you’ll meet amazing people, uncover Barcelona’s hidden gems, and have the time of your life. We mostly recommend it for travelers aged 18 to 45.

What really makes our hostel unique and what has helped us win HostelWorld awards year after year, are our amazing team and incredibly social atmosphere.
Our staff are travelers just like you, but we aren't just here to party. We'll cook you dinner, take you on daytime adventures, and share our expert knowledge of the city.

If you still need more convincing, Onefam Paralelo is conveniently located walking distance to many of the main sights of Barcelona, such as Las Ramblas, Plaza d'Espanya, Montjuic, the waterfront and the beach. We are also next to the super efficient metro of Barcelona, so it really is the perfect place to call home whilst you explore our beautiful city.

Our weekend in Barcelona was amazing! The amenities were awesome. Free dinner, guided outings to bars/clubs (free), drinking games hosted by the staff, and a fridge/kitchen open to guests. The space was a bit tight and at one point the hot water went out but that was fixed within the day. Not terrible at all. The staff was knowledgeable and beyond kind and we felt safe in the area. Good location for a quieter area if you purchase metro card or don’t mind walking a bit. Great breakfast spots near

Hostelworld says

Onefam Paralelo opened in 2011 and has received very high ratings from our reviewers ever since. Our guests say the "cool, friendly and family-like vibe is set by the owner himself", with attentive, friendly staff and clean, new and comfortable beds. It's located near Paral-lel metro station, "super close and convenient to the centre of Barcelona", within walking distance of Plaza d'Espanya, La Rambla, Plaza Reial and more. We like their free nightly dinners, made by the staff and designed to create a communal family atmosphere.
