White Nest Hostel

I stayed here for one night over the weekend. I came with a friend and we opted for a 6 bed mixed dorm. The bathroom could have done with some TLC and tiles were broken and it was generally quite grotty, but was fine for one night. Towels and bedding were provided in the dorm. Staff were friendly and helpful and allowed us to store our bags in a room at the back of the hostel both before and after check in whilst we were exploring the city. Check in did take a lot longer than expected. There was a big group in front of us and absolutely nothing seemed to be moving. That said, the staff seemed to be doing their best. |There's a nice communal searing area just past the check in desk and we were able to have a few nice conversations with other travellers. I didn't use the kitchen and so can't comment. |The location is fantastic! You can see parts of the Alhambra as soon as you exit the hostel. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the hostel to the Alhambra's main entrance and around 15 minutes to walk to the cathedral. We came to Granada by coach and were able to take the 33 bus from the station to a bus stop about 10 minutes walk away from the hostel. |Can definitely say that this place is good value for money!!!!

Very well located hostel, with a friendly staff and clean rooms. I could see the Alhambra from the third floor! All majors attraction were within 30min walk, and staff was happy to give tips and directions. However, the outlets in my bedroom were badly placed to charge my phone overnight, and I could clearly hear my loud neighbors at 0100 through the paper thin wall.

Small Hostel well located right in the centre of Grenada, literally 2 minutes walk takes you to the main square. I have some mobility difficulties so was very pleased to find 2 single beds in my room along with one bunk which mean I didn’t have to climb the ladder on the bunk bed. Room had air conditioning and a pan en-suite which was quite small but a nice feature and had towels provided along with miniature toiletries which was a nice touch. There was also plenty of storage in the room.||||I do have a couple of negatives I have to mention. I stayed here in a group of 16 with 4 rooms and at check in we were only offered one room key which our group leader said was not acceptable. We were eventually provided a second key for each room but the staff made a fuss about doing it. There needs to be one key per guest as in most other hostels, this is one thing that can be fixed for a low cost. Also one night some of our group got locked on the terrace, when we found the security man he admitted he did not check to see if there was people on the terrace before he locked it for the night which astounded me. Another thing I noticed was in general the staff didn’t have much English which was surprising but we managed.||||Given the issues with keys I wouldn’t recommend here for groups because having one key just isn’t workable but otherwise definitely put it on your list despite the negatives I mentioned

My sister and I stayed at White Nest Hostel and loved it!! They offer free tours and they were the best tours we’ve ever taken! Simona was our guide. She was enthusiastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. She took us to an overlook to watch the sunset, then to Las Cuevas, and for tapas. The next day she took us to La Alhambra and into town. It was a casual and personal experience. She asked us where we wanted to go and took us to the best places. Fantastic experience. We would absolutely come here again.

This is my favorite hostel so far in my travels. It is clean and seconds away from the heart of everywhere you want to be. Best of all are the people who work here, volunteer here, and come here.||||Luca from Hungary is amazing, friendly and helpful and got me started on the right foot.||||Simona from Slovakia runs group activities and even though she has only been in Granada 2 weeks you would never know it. She is a great guide and makes sure everyone is having a great time. Layla (i hope that is her name!) from Belgium is also great and helped lead the way. The first day they took us to see an amazing sunset from the top of a hill. Once we worked up such an appetite, we went in search of the perfect Tapas. The group dynamic was super loose and fun. So much so thst i forgot my bag at one of the restaurants! This is an easy city to get lost in and here i am panicking because i don't even remember the name of the place i left it in. Lo and behold, 5 minutes later Simona comes walking up with my bag. Total life saver. I joined the same group the next day for pool and drinks at a nearby hall.||||Last i want to shout out to Alfredo from Colombia for sharing his rice with me. It was good too.||||Highly recommend this place. Just be ready to make lots of friends and have a great time! -Mark

An excellent hostel! I stayed here a couple of weeks ago with my husband, our 5 year old son, and my father. We had a quadruple room with a private bathroom. This hostel is in the best place to explore the Albayçin. The Alhambra is a 20 minute walk (uphill). The staff were just great! It's in a very old Arab-style villa. They offer free WiFi. The kitchen is a bit small but that is the nature of staying in a classic building. Breakfast was simple and perfect for our needs. You feel like you're back in time. I highly recommend a stay here.

Hi Cinthia, we just arrived in Malaga, we are on the bus and heading to our accommodation!

We had an amazing room with a direct view of the Alhambra. Everything was great, the only slight drawback being that there was no proper place to socialise (particularly at night) apart from the kitchen. The common room was good to relax in, but as no drinks were allowed there it wasn't ideal for night time drinks.
