Great Hostel

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 10 Dec 2019
I was travelling with friends and we stayed there for one night. The hostel is great and we really enjoyed our time there. The position is perfect, right in front of the City Cathedral in the centre of Valladolid. I recommend this hostel if you are planning to stay for a couple of nights in Valladolid.

Imagine my wife’s face when I told her I’d booked us in a hostel!

The price only confirmed her suspicions. But I had the last laugh. This was great.

The room had all we needed and was clean with good toiletries provided. Staff were friendly and we had a quiet night’s sleep.

The town itself is full of hidden gems.

We just spent two days/nights at the Book Factory Hostel and could not have been happier. We were a bit worried about the “hostel” in the name, despite all the good reviews, but this is actually a very nice little boutique hotel, very modern and comfortable, with a bit of a hipster vibe. (They do seem to have a dorm room as well, to accommodate pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago.) The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The location is great, very close to the cathedral and the university, and to several museums, and walking distance to about everything else. Lastly, the very cool attached cafe/bar is wonderful - for breakfast/lunch/dinner/coffee/drinks.

We would not hesitate to stay there again.

Free parking 5 minutes away near the university is a bonus as almost the whole central part of the city i "blue" (pay).
Must be a fairly new hotel - or newly renovated - as it looks quite new. Very patient and helpful front desk staff. Room were surprisingly big. Only little minus as a moldy smell on the bathroom. After the shower I would see that the shower cabin is not tight, why waters runs out on the floor. This could be the reason for the smell....
Breakfast is very basic and very cheap.
I would come again....
