About

Red Nest Hostel - Valencia

Red Nest Hostel occupies a historic building right on Calle de la Paz, one of Valencia's most central streets. The 2-star hostel is roughly 1 km from the Central Market, and most of the old town's landmarks are within easy walking distance. It's a deliberately social place: there's an upstairs bar, a rooftop terrace, and a programme of activities that includes free walking tours, pub crawls and beach outings.

The hostel keeps things simple but functional. Rooms are dormitory-style (mixed and female-only) plus a double with shared bathroom, and the facilities include a fully equipped shared kitchen, luggage storage, lockers, and laundry. Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:30 and the 24-hour reception makes late arrivals straightforward. With beds from £10, it's positioned as good value for money in a prime location.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Central location on Calle de la Paz — Guests repeatedly highlight the hostel's position in the historic centre, close to shops, parks, museums and the Central Market (about 1 km away).
  • Friendly, helpful staff — Staff score 8.6 in the ratings, and reviews consistently praise their warmth, helpfulness and the activities they organise – from free walking tours to pub crawls.
  • Social atmosphere and organised activities — The hostel runs a packed social calendar – city walks, pub crawls, beach trips and parties – plus a rooftop bar/lounge to meet other travellers.
  • Good value for money — With beds from £10, guests find it strong value – one reviewer called it 'worth it for the price'. Breakfast is available at low cost, and there are no hidden charges for linen.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Facilities score is notably low — The facilities rating sits at 5.2, the lowest category. Some guests mention the air conditioning needing fixing and thin walls, which can affect comfort.
  • Rooms can feel small — A few guests found the dormitories cramped, especially for four people, though they note the social payoff of sharing space.
  • Not close to the beach or City of Arts and Sciences — The central location means the beach and the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences are further afield – about 30 minutes by bike – though buses are cheap and easy.
  • Quieter at the start of the week — For solo travellers, Monday and Tuesday can be dead – the city is quiet and the hostel has less going on.

“The staff were very nice and helpful. The hostel occupies the whole building in the historic centre. Facilities are great, especially the kitchen, and there are no hidden charges – everything is available, just leave small deposits for a towel (€5) and keycard (€1). Laundry costs €4 (€2 wash, €2 dry). Don't forget to bring your own lock for the lockers.”

The bottom line

Red Nest Hostel delivers exactly what it promises: a friendly, central and affordable base in Valencia's old town. It's best for solo travellers and groups who want a sociable stay with organised activities, rather than a quiet, high-spec retreat. Just bring a lock and earplugs if you're a light sleeper.

7.4A classic social hostel in a prime location, with the caveats that come with the territory.
