You may have thought your youth hostel days were long gone, but when needs must, value can still trump hang-ups.

Gat’s clean, hotel-like interior is perfectly serviceable – unless you have an aversion to the colour green, which features predominantly throughout. Take the neighbourhood in the same vein and you’ll find the somewhat run down surroundings more of an up-and-coming, authentic experience.

  • It's a Flat World

    Every region has its share of entrepreneurs. Silicon Valley has its high tech wizards, Milan its couturiers, and Nigeria its money transfer-challenged businessmen. Here, meanwhile, there's been no shortage of holiday flat renters.

  • Win a Luxury Boutique Hotel Stay

    Win a two night Barcelona & Discovery package at this luxury boutique hotel. One of our favourite Barcelona hotels, and most certainly our favourite rooftop pool.

  • Disturb, Bitte

    For all the high-end design, the sexual tension is evident from the moment you enter the lobby. Provided along with your room are an array of signs to hang off your door knob, including "Disturb, please." Everyone’s game here, except for the staff. Shame.

  • All Aboard

    Gran Clase used to be neither gran or with clase. Times change, though, and today Renfe is putting its new Talgo Trenhotel into service with larger beds, flat screens, and more luggage space as some of the novelties.

  • For Richer, For Poorer

    There's no denying it: Being married makes perfect financial sense - 1x2 is simply cheaper than 2x1. So put a ring on it, but do it cheaply. Say, by doing away with the party and moving the ceremony directly into the honeymoon.
