El Granado Hostel

Our top-rated hostel is a social place to meet people from all over the world, get in contact with different cultures and practice languages. Take a look at the reviews left by past volunteers here on Worldpackers, check out our website and Instagram/Facebook profiles!
Granada is an old university town of great cultural importance with easy access to open-air activities and thriving student nightlife. Overlooking the town and at the feet of snow-capped mountains lies the Alhambra, an old morish fortress categorized as a world heritage site by the UNESCO. We are located in the centre of the city.

I'm Marco, an Italian guy who loves travelling, languages, hostels and Granada. Our wonderful team will make you feel welcome and at home from the moment you step in the hostel! We want our volunteers to feel comfortable and have fun. And to have an amazing work-exchange experience. There's room for everyone's ideas and we try to make a motivated, integrated team where everyone is equal.

This was honestly the perfect Worldpackers experience! Hours and tasks are super reasonable, the hostel room and common spaces are super well-maintained, and both the other volunteers and staff create a super welcoming and professional environment. Granada is an amazing city with so much to see and beautiful nature nearby. Thanks to the whole El Granado team for an amazing month :)

Truly a great experience all around! Don’t hesitate to apply! the staff wonderfully chill
& the city so majestic! The tours they do is very special and grateful to go on them. The hostel itself is very clean and have curtains for the beds to have some privacy( beds are comfy too) The host marco is very pleasantly nice and really listens to any advice/ concerns and applies/fixes it. There’s barely any pressure/ issues which makes the environment an amazing place to be in. Out of my 20 volunteers experiences this has been easily top 5! Honor to there!

I had the most amazing experience at El Granado. The staff immediately made me feel so welcomed and at home, the hostel is beautiful, lively and social! The work was more than fair and I formed lifelong friendships with the other Volunteers. Granada is easy to fall in love with too. After about 7 of these worldpackers programs I can say this was one of my all time favorites! Please message me if you have any questions!

This was my first Worldpackers exchange and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The work is easy and the hours are fair— there’s plenty of time to explore beautiful Granada. Everyone is so lovely and there is always a really nice atmosphere in the hostel. I loved joining the hostel events, spending afternoons relaxing on the gorgeous sunny terrace and getting to know other travellers. The facilities in the hostel are also really great! I 100% recommend this volunteer experience!! Thanks El Granado for an amazing month :)

I had an amazing experience at El Granado hostel. The hours were true to what was advertised and the work was easy and enjoyable. The staff, volunteers and guests were all so welcoming, which made for the best experience. The hostel has a great vibe, social but still relaxing. Awesome facilities, including social rooftop terraces and quiet areas for working. Great location in the city but still nice and quiet. I will miss El Granado greatly!
