Stayed here for 3 nights as a large (13) group of friends. We had two dorm rooms, number 12 and number 14. Overall I was really disappointed with the hostel - the building itself is beautiful, with stained glass roof in the atrium, and it is very well located in the centre of Madrid - not far at all from...

Stayed here for 3 nights at the start of our holiday. The hostel is in a good location in the centre of Madrid. The building itself is beautiful with a lovely indoor courtyard in the centre. The bedrooms and the toilets/showers were very basic but clean. It was very noisy during our stay and the breakfast was poor which would... More

Stayed in the Cat’s hostel for one night and found it a decent experience. The room we stayed in was large but crammed with beds, so it got quite stuffy during the night. However there are options of smaller rooms but we were on a budget. The main common area was nice with plenty of couches and places to sit... More

I stayed here twice and really enjoyed it. The building itself is really cool, with a large circular atrium and stained glass roof, and interior balconies looking over onto this. The bathrooms are really nice and have hair dryers for women. The front desk staff were helpful in providing suggestions on where to go and what days/times things are cheaper.... More

The hostel is situated perfectly in the city and it's very close to the metro. It was very cheap too!! The lobby was beautifully decorated but they close it at midnight! I stayed in a 14 bed dorm and it was like hell!!! The thermostat was controlled in the front desk. The doors were also kind of hard to open!!... More

The location of Cat's hostel are pretty nice and for sure a plus about the hostel. It is located close to everything in the centre of Madrid. But here my optimism about the hostel stops. The worse thing about my (luckily one night) stay was that the room I stayed in was CRAZY warm. I mean it was February and... More

Had a great time staying in cats hostel in madrid, the building was very cool on the inside, the hostel staff were friendly and informative and the rooms were good. the door locks were the only bad thing i have to say about the hostel, a little tricky and confusing the first couple times you use them.

Its always a hassle when you start your quest for a good hostel in major cities (especially capitals) in europe. We decided to go to Cat's hostel in Madrid. What I like abt the hostel was the activities, the neighbourhood, the charm and atmosphere, the staff. What I disliked where the showers (oh man... so small) as well as the... More
