St Christopher's Inn
St. Christopher's Inn is a hostel in the Eixample district of Barcelona, Spain, offering both dormitory beds and private rooms equipped with reading lights, power outlets, and privacy curtains. The building also houses the bar Belushi's, which puts on live entertainment and broadcasts sporting events on screens.
The hostel is part of the European St. Christopher's network, which was founded in the 1990s with the aim of offering reliable accommodation for backpackers across the continent. The Barcelona location has since become a regular stop for young travelers moving through Eixample.
The name St. Christopher's Inn refers to Saint Christopher, the patron saint of travelers, giving the place a symbolic meaning for those passing through. The attached bar Belushi's draws both guests and outside visitors, making it a social spot that goes beyond a place to sleep.
The reception is staffed around the clock and rooms are accessed by key card, with lockers available for valuables. The hostel sits in the Eixample, where shops, restaurants, and sights are within easy walking distance in most directions.
The hostel holds a Biosphere Certificate, an official recognition for eco-friendly practices in tourism awarded by the Catalan regional government. It is one of the few hostels in Barcelona to have received this distinction, which sets it apart within the local accommodation offer.
