I really love my stay at Paraiso! All the staff there are so helpful and friendly, they are always ready to assist! The location is good, only 10 minutes of walk to get to the central part. I will definitely stay there again at my next visit to Barcelona :)

Our time in Barcelona was amazing, and the people who works at the hostel were really helpful, friendly and funny, especially Constantino and Paola. My friends and I will definitely stay at Paraiso Travellers Hostel in our next trip to the city. We had a great time there.

We stayed there five nights over the new years evening and we payed a lot of money (86€) per night. We had a double room with private ensuite. The room was very small, had no window and there was no door in front of the toilet ! The bed was very small and to short. But the room was very clean. Every night the guesthouse was very loud, many people were screaming and talking very loud on our floor. We could not sleep without earplugs. The terrace was very good for having breakfast but no boiler.

On the whole the hostel was a great experience, located conveniently near a metro and short walk away from La Rambla. The staff were incredibly friendly and useful, and were always willing to give advice. The hostel had a nice terrace which sitting around and having a drink at night. It also had a spacious lounge, with a small selection of DVDs. Overall a really great stay!

Great hostel! Cosy, sweet, friendly. Loved the crazy colours in the rooms! Would be nice to try the big and inviting terrace in the summertime!

Had a private room with a double bed. Only thing to complain is the shared bathroom (just one bathroom for 3 rooms), which was often occupied in the mornings. Staff was helpful, security seemed very good, room was nice and clean. Location was good too, a walking distance from La Rambla.

The staff was exceptionally rude. Maybe the young man that attended to me was having difficulties with his own personal problems, but his attitude made me unable to enjoy my stay. He should be fired.

Great staff, all of whom went out of their way to help with all requests. The rooms were clean and comfortable as well. I have no hesitation in recommending this option.

This is a nice and clean hostel with friendly staff. Location is ok but there are lot of hostel's location are better than this one. Everything is fine in this hostel but just feel like it should be better account to the cost is quite high in a hostel price. (Even though this hostel is new)

Staff was pleasant and very helpful when approached, but did not outreach to guests. Room was basic, but dreary despite the colorful paint. Shared bathrooms were spotless. but the overall feeling of the hostel was not inviting. Common area was out of the way and on the opposite side of the hostel from the terrace. Only one common computer and wi-fi did not work with my mac. The avenue the hostel was on felt safe late at night, nearby side streets not so much.

I have had a very pleasant stay at Paraiso Hostel and enjoyed my days there. Close to la Rambla it is perfectly located and only 10-15 minutes from Barcelona centre away. Unfortunately, there is no kitchen available. Nevertheless, the hostel provides a big terrace and a nice small living room. Worth mentioning is the very beautiful and friendly girl from the front desk with whom you can have very interesting conversations or even a nice night walk.^^

The private rooms next to the patio get very damp when it rains. It can get very cold at night (thanks for the extra blanket!) and everything in the room (clothes, bags, bedding) gets damp as well. Not sure if there is a way to improve this...

Overall an okay hostel. Good: Ensuite bathrooms are always a plus. Nice terrace. Good security. Bad: Staff is good, not the friendliest I've ever experienced: Only one computer in common room. No breakfast. Lockers didnt lock, and you need your own lock
