About this hostel

El Carmen Backpackers is a straightforward, well-run hostel that puts its money into the things that matter: good mattresses, hot showers and a kitchen big enough to actually cook in.

It sits on one of the busiest squares in the old town, which means everything is on the doorstep and the dorms facing the street are noisier. Ask for a courtyard-facing bed if you are a light sleeper.

  • Best value in Valencia. The kitchen is properly equipped, which saved me a lot over a week.

  • Central and cheap. Take a bed at the back — the square is loud until late on weekends.
