About
Hostels Meetingpoint
Hostels Meetingpoint sits in a quiet street opposite a palace and cathedral, a 5-minute walk from Opera. The hostel mixes private rooms with shared dorms, offering a common room, picnic area, and a range of services including luggage storage, laundry, and tour assistance.
The vibe here is communal, with many guests and staff interacting easily. The late check-out (until 11:00) and early check-in (from 13:00) provide flexibility, though the 23:30 check-in deadline means arrivals later in the night need to plan ahead.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Central location for exploring Madrid — Just a 5-minute walk from Opera and directly opposite a palace and cathedral, the hostel is close to the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor, and the Opera metro station.
- Friendly and helpful staff — Guests repeatedly praise the welcoming and English-speaking team, who are happy to offer advice and organise walking tours.
- Clean and comfortable rooms — Reviewers note clean rooms, fresh bed linen, and spacious showers, with multiple power outlets in dorms.
- Fast and free Wi-Fi — The connection is reliable both in the rooms and the lobby, a practical plus for travellers.
–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Noise and privacy in shared spaces — As a hostel with many shared rooms and bathrooms, expect a lively, communal atmosphere that may not suit those wanting quiet or privacy.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 13:00 and 23:30, so if you arrive later, you'll need to arrange something else – no late-night arrivals.
- Breakfast starts late — A recurring suggestion is that breakfast should begin earlier; early risers may find the timing inconvenient.
- No pets allowed — The hostel does not accept pets, so if you're travelling with an animal, you'll need to look elsewhere.

7.4Verified guest“For a week in Madrid, this place was ideal. The location let me see everything easily, and the neighbourhood stayed calm. Staff were super friendly and the Wi-Fi held up both in the room and downstairs. The walking tours led by David and Aidan were informative and fun – don't miss them.”
