About

In each room you will find a selection of classical and contemporary literary works related to a specific geographical region, for instance, in the room related to the Spanish literature you will find works by Pérez Reverte, Javier Marías, Lorca, Quevedo and of course Cervantes; in the room dedicated to Latin America there you will find works by García Márquez, Benedetti, Cortázar and many more.

But, if you are not in the mood to enjoy one of the books assigned to your room, then you should know that the rest of the books around the house can be used freely.

Our rooms do not have individual toilets, but the house has two completely renovated bathrooms, one for girls and another one for boys.

We are in the historical center of the town, right beside the Cathedral and so close to all bars, shops and restaurants.

We have a nice common room with balcony

We have a nice outdoor terrace to enjoy a coffee, a drink ...

Summary of traveller reviews

Ratones de biblioteca in Tenerife offers a wonderfully welcoming and clean atmosphere, feeling like a home away from home.

A lovely and inconspicuously situated place in the heart of old San Cristobel De La Laguna. In my case it was just like coming home after a days hiking in the beautiful Anaga region which is handily nearby and easily accessed by bus. The hostel is very quiet and characterful and the host, Paola, speaks perfect English along with being a treasure trove of information on the locality. Everything is comfortable, clean and with only six rooms it manages to have a private feel yet is still friendly.
