About
4U Hostel
4U Hostel sits on Calle Coches De San Matias, about 400 metres from the Cine Madrigal Cinema and a short walk from the San Juan de Dios Museum. The building holds 23 rooms across a mix of shared dorms and private options, all set over several floors with a lift. The atmosphere is bright and contemporary, with a restaurant, bar and a rooftop terrace where guests gather.
The hostel runs a 24-hour front desk with express check-in and check-out, a concierge desk and tours and ticket assistance. There's a shared kitchen, a TV lounge and free Wi-Fi in every room. For those driving, the area is central, though parking in Granada's old town can be tricky; it's best to plan ahead. The hostel is entirely non-smoking and pets are not allowed.

In brief
What works, what to weigh

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Top bunks can be awkward — Several guests note that climbing to the top bunk is a bit tricky, which might matter if you have mobility concerns.
- No on-site parking — Like many central Granada properties, there's no parking mentioned – if you arrive by car, plan to park elsewhere.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in is from 14:00 to 22:00, so late arrivals outside this window could be an issue.
- Roof terrace can be quiet — One guest wished the rooftop was busier; it's a nice spot but not always a lively social scene.
