10 Top-Rated Hostels hotel in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

April 26, 2023 Malia Yoakum

Welcoming, tolerant Gran Canaria offers a little something for everyone. Families flock to the water parks and beaches of Puerto Rico. Those seeking peaceful escape scamper to Mogan's quiet fishing villages. Gay visitors crowd the bars, restaurants and beaches of Playa del Ingles. Urban attractions are on offer in Las Palmas. Three highways open up the island for those with a rental car or a bus schedule. Prime sites to visit include Iglesia de San Juan Bautista de Arucas and Palmalitos zoo park.

I was there at the best time when both the guests and the volunteers were special people. What is also important is that the low tide was in the afternoons and it was 23-26 C for a few days, which made the winter holid

Hostel Gran Canaria

Located in the barrio of Pino Apolinario, this hostel is only 10 minutes away with car of bus from the old city centre of Triana and Vegueta in Las Palmas. The hostel is situated in a old colonial style house, who has been completely renovated and adapted to the needs of the backpacker of the 21st century. This without losing the authenticity of the house.

Fantastic hosts and hostel

Reviewed By DJEAfamily

From the moment we enquired at booking the hostel for our large group we had great service, and this continued as we planned our trip and then visited for 5 nights in May 22. Firstly the hostel is beautiful, homely, comfortable, clean and better than any hostel I have seen before. It is a bus ride away from the city with its sanding beaches of Las Canteras, restaurants and shops but also accessible to the mountains, volcano and other interesting places. What made this place extra special were its hosts, Fernando, Andres and Korneel. They were welcoming, approachable and helpful, just fantastic! This was a work trip, however as individuals we are all excited about returning to the hostel with our families and friends in the future. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Tamaran House

Your quiet home straight on the most beautiful beach, surrounded by the best restaurants, bars and shops of the city. Ideal for tourists and digital nomads, strong and reliable Wi-Fi connection provided 24h and a fully equipped kitchen. Stunning sea-view from some of the rooms, without mentioning the amazing rooftop. Some of the rooms have ensuite bathroom, some other shared and the room "La Palma" has even a large private terrace! The ambient is very open, young and cozy: check it out! 200 squared meters of colours, shades and tranquillity, divided in 3 floors and a panoramic rooftop from where you can admire the most spectacular sunsets that Gran Canaria can offer!

Highly recommended. Staying here feels like arriving home

Reviewed By tillplhp

The staff was incredibly friendly. From the moment I arrived at the hostel and checked in, I felt just like coming home. The atmosphere is so familiar and welcoming, I wish I could have stayed more days. The roof terrace is super comfy and being able to see the sea from there is just beautiful. The common area and the kitchen were also really nice and clean and the dinners we had together with other guests and the staff were delicious. I immediately made new friends, people from the staff invited me to their activities at the beach and after being there for two days I felt like I know most of them for a long time. The bedroom and the bed were comfortable and it was always quiet during the night, which helped me to get a good rest. The hostel is located right next to the beach which is another thing that I really liked. The surrounding area is calm but there are a lot of restaurants, cafes and supermarkets within a few minutes of walking distance. The stay in the hostel really made my time in Las Palmas something very special. All in all, it is a great value for money and if I'm coming back to Gran Canaria I will definitely go back to Tamaran.

Reviewed By Trotamundos09

Since I would be visiting during Carnaval, I knew getting a reasonably priced room might be a challenge, and the Alcaravaneras had a good rate, in addition to being walking distance to Santa Catalina Park, where a lot of the Carnaval events were being held. Davinia, the receptionist, was proactive in contacting me to find out when I would be checking in. You are given a set of keys since there is no 24 hour reception, and you can come and go as you please. They have a kitchen on the 4th floor that guests can use with a refrigerator and microwave. The biggest issues with the Alcaravaneras was the smell and the noise. I had one of the rooms with a private bath which, in principle, wos good. However, there was a strong bad odor (probably sewer gas) from the bathroom. In addition, the location of the hotel rooms is on a side street that is right off the main highway in Las Palmas. The highway noise came right through the windows, whether they were closed or open. When I complained about these issues, the hostal provided me with a floor fan that helped with the smell a little, and provided white noise at night to cover some of the highway noise. Wifi was also spotty. The hostal also let me store my suitcase for a few hours after checkout and before my flight departure.

Cactus Host

My recommendation for Las Palmas

Reviewed By Smueller4

After staying in various hostels and apartments in LP, I'm confident to say that Cactus in one of the best choices. The rooms are super clean, very cozy and the interior is beautiful. Moreover, the staff is super friendly and helpful. In my case (I stayed there two times) they remembered I needed a desk to work and let me choose my room of choice. They also helped me find a place for a corona test, for example. The communication with the staff is very easy via whatsapp. The rooftop terrace offers much space to hang out or work. What's also great is that washing is free! The only downside I can think of is that the walls are quite thin and it can get noisy at times. But in total, a recommendation :)

Quiet and Clean

Reviewed By AMsays

A little out of the way place but minutes from the airport. Great reception - cheery, helpful and kind. Took a 2 bed, room that had a couch, shelving and overlooked the pool. Showers and toilets separate. Kitchen beside the pool was small but adequately stocked. You store your stuff, named, in cubicles or in the fridge. Many lounges with great views of the sunset or sunrise overlooking the Atlantic. The hostel is metres from the water. The beach alongside the hostel is a little rough and rocky - your best bet is Playa Izquierdo (El Ribanzo) in a sheltered alcove, ten minutes north. This place is very windy and well known for windsurfing. Our overriding impression of the place was quiet and clean..

Camino Homestay

Heel erg leuk hebben we het hier gehad

Reviewed By Marliesvanslooten

Het was erg leuk en gezellig , lekkere laid back sfeer Mooi uitzicht , wij waren aan het werk maar met dit uitzicht was dat geen straf . Houdt er rekening mee dat het in de bergen natuurlijk altijd iets kouder is dan laag We hebben rond de kerst met z’n allen rond het kampvuur en de bbq gezeten. De insteek van dit Hostel is een beetje om je bewust te maken met de natuur , dus dat betekend automatisch dat niet iedereen vlees eet. Bedden lijken slecht maar dat is niet zo ze zijn zacht , zelfs als reuma patiënt liggen ze prima Internet is er aanwezig Leuke en gezellige vrijwilligers Als we kunnen komen we zeker nog een keer terug , al is het alleen maar om handen te schudden en om onze in bijna nieuwstaat verkerende koekenpan die we zijn vergeten op te halen.
