About

Toc Hostel Granada

Toc Hostel Granada sits in the heart of the old town, a short walk from the Gate of Elvira and only metres from the Basilica of San Juan de Dios. It's a purposeful base: the rooms are clean and modern, the common areas are designed for lingering, and the small pool offers a break from the Andalusian heat.

The hostel covers the practical bases well. There's a guest kitchen, a lounge with a pool table, a lift, and 24-hour reception, so arrival and departure times are flexible. Dorms and private rooms are both available, and the staff routinely earn mentions for their helpfulness and local advice.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Location in the old town — A few minutes' walk from the Gate of Elvira and near the Basilica of San Juan de Dios, with the cathedral and main sights easily reachable on foot.
  • Design and atmosphere — Guests repeatedly describe the hostel as modern, stylish, and well-maintained, with a look that feels more like a boutique hotel than a typical hostel.
  • Helpful staff — Front-desk staff are frequently singled out for their friendliness and local advice, from tour suggestions to parking tips.
  • Value for money — From £21 per night, guests feel the quality of the rooms, facilities, and location justifies the price.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The hostel's policy is no pets, so if you're travelling with an animal you'll need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in window — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:59, so you'll need to plan your arrival within those hours or arrange something with reception in advance.
  • Shared facilities in dorms — Dormitory rooms come with shared bathrooms, and while guests rate the cleanliness highly, you'll be sharing the space with others.
  • No on-site parking — The hostel doesn't list parking, and one guest recommends using the San Agustin car park nearby, which suggests an extra cost if you arrive by car.

“A plush hostel with comfortable beds, controllable heating, and windows facing the bell tower. The location was perfect for walking to the sights, the facilities were clean, and the common areas were stylish. The WiFi was excellent, and the bathroom was large with a luxurious shower. Laundry was available for a fee.”

“Right in the centre, close to the cathedral and a bus stop. The communal area with the pool was stylish, and the rooms were spacious with new facilities. The beds were comfortable, each with a lamp and sockets, and the 24-hour reception was a bonus.”

8.9Verified guest

“I had a fantastic stay. The design was modern and cosy, and the WiFi was strong. I especially liked the separate working area, which you rarely find in hostels. The location made it easy to explore, and the paper band they gave for luggage storage after check-out added a nice layer of security.”

8.9Verified guest

“Great location near the cathedral. The design was new and beautiful, and the staff, especially Aida and Antonio, were incredibly helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a safe and hairdryer. The shower was good, and the toiletries were a nice touch. Parking at San Agustin was recommended for anyone with a car. Excellent value.”
