My friend and I stayed in Be Sound hostel for three nights and found it to be more than your average hostel experience, with great people and very accommodating staff. It's a really lovely place to meet people, and a very quick walk to either the metro station or to La Rambla. Very big, safe lockers to put your stuff... More

This was my very first hostel experience, and thankfully I wasn't disappointed. Had a nice time at this hostel. Went there in March with 3 friends, hence the dorms were quiet as it was the non-tourist season.The dorms with bunk beds were a little cramped but hey, this is a hostel! I really wasn't expecting a large, airy room. The... More

I love the fact that the lifts were big enough to fit 2 people plus luggage and both upstairs and Downstairs were nice places to hang out. OMG and the... More

I've been three for a week and it was great, everything clean and neat, you get free breakfast and you are in the city centre, the staff is nice and helpful, you can join tours and parties organized by them, or you can just chill with people from around the world. It is great!

when you book a room with Be Sound do not expect a 'room'... you will recieve a hallway with beds in it. I am very skinny and I barely squeezed between the beds and the lockers opposite. In regards to walking distance from things it is fantastic however I cannot say it s a good location because the area is... More

This place is lucky it has air con and is close to la rambla, the metro and the beach. The rooms are tiny and cramped, the bathrooms were gross and at night the neighborhood isn't a place I would want to be alone in. If you just want a place to sleep this is fine, but don't expect anything like... More

2 minute walk to La Rambla, this hostel has a cool atmosphere. The hostel staff were friendly and there were lots of activities to do through the hostel, including walking tours, beach party, and pub crawl. Computers with internet were free to use and there was a cool rooftop area with couches where you can chill and have a drink.... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Feel the beat of Barcelona! Be Hostels Sound is an awesome hostel right in the heart of the Barcelona city center. Our hostel is a reformed typical Barcelona apartment building- 6 floors tall with an amazing roof terrace, balconies on every floor, and great views of the bohemian Raval neighbourhood from every window. It’s the perfect place to watch the Barcelona life pass by. Close to all the best nightclubs and alternative spots in the city center, Be Hostels Sound is the perfect place to "come home to" at the end of your Barcelona day. Decorated and painted by local graphic artists, Be Hostels Sound is a modern hostel with a lot of personality. We offer our guests a big "chillout" room downstairs, a kitchen to save up money for the Barcelona sights and a big dining room with tables, lounge chairs and sofas to make your Barcelona stay as chill as possible. You are on vacation! Our rooms are mixed, with 6 or 8 beds and shared bathroom one every floor. All rooms have a personal locker for each traveller, A/C, heating, mirrors…. All rooms at Be Hostels Sound have big windows with great Raval and Barcelona neighbourhood views. If your room is on the street side, you also have a balcony!! The most important thing for us is that our travellers get a taste of what Barcelona is and what it represents for the people who live here. From Las Ramblas, to buildings with no straight lines, Barcelona is a very special city. Home to three of the most well-known Surrealist painters, Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso, and Joan Miró, even the most famous art of Barcelona is grounded in a reality alternative to the one that the rest of us know. Open yours eyes and ears and feel the Barcelona vibe! Catch your dreams with us at Be Hostels Sound. ... more   less
