Stayed for 3 nights in October for a stag-do. Wanted a cheap and cheerful place, in a good location and KABUL ticks all of those boxes. It is full of young travellers, so having a good time is the intention of most - our game of football in the square at 5am with a load of strangers was an example... more

After I got back from Mallorca, I was in Barcelona for a few days. Decided to stay at this hostel, since it was centrally located in the historic Placa Reial, and steps from the amazing Las Ramblas and the harbour. They only have mixed dorms, or if they had all female ones they were sold out. Check in was easy,... more

Booked the hostel, then cancelled as they could not meet our room requirements (numbers) called them TWICE and were assured our booking was cancelled, then discovered they put the payment through anyway!! received an email telling us there was no record of our call (even though we could provide the name and nationality of the girl we cancelled with!) they... more

This was my first time staying at a hostel. If you are looking for a quiet, cozy, comfortable stay, this is NOT the place for you. If you are looking to meet people, party and have crazy stories to tell your friends back home, hurry up and make your reservation at Kabul. Kabul reminds me of the dorm in college.... more

My friend and I stayed at the Kabul Hostel last Thursday and Friday night, after reading many enthusiastic recommendations on sites such as Trip Advisor, Hostel Bookers, Gomio etc. We stayed in an 8 bed dorm, on a very busy weekend (the weekend of the Sonar Festival, and the Summer Solstice), and despite the fact that the room was tiny,... more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Group of 3 girls went to celebrate end of exams. Had an incredible time. The hostel is great. Clean, safe and very friendly. Was in a 4 man room which was a little small but what do you expect?! Very cheap beer which was good for those of our group who liked the beer but not... more

Everyone we talked to in Portugal and Spain said we HAD to stay in Kabul. So we booked the 20-person dorm, a little wary. The first night we stayed there was absolute hell. I'm not going to blame the hostel, but the people in our room were really inconsiderate and loud, coming into the room before going to bed, and... more

This hostel, and Barcelona in general was the highlight of my whole trip through Europe! Good, cheap beer, free food, great people! The rooms were really nice, and the bathrooms were always clean, and the showers hot! It was in an excellent position, although was about a half hour walk to the beach. But with so many things to do... more
