Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi is set in the centre of Tarragona, around 100 metres from La Rambla. This hostel features a gym, rooms with private bathrooms and free Wi-Fi access.

The hostel has easy access to Tarragona’s tourist attractions, including its Roman amphitheatre, 20 minutes’ walk away. The city’s port and beach are just over one kilometre from the Sant Jordi.

Nice location not far from the main city avenue, friendly staff, a small-but-cosy room. I was fortunate to have AC but I know the place says some rooms don't. The shower was great and the wifi was also really fast.

    Lovely, modern well-equipped apartment. Great location, easy to access city centre, bus station, train station, bars, restaurants and supermarkets, but in a quiet and safe feeling neighbourhood. Would definitely stay again if returning to Tarragona.

    Excellent location, fantastic choice for a budget hostel and really close to all attractions. Rooms were clean and staff super friendly! There is air conditioning in the evening, but a nice staff member put it on earlier for us as it was very very hot. Kitchen fully equipped.

    So far, the best hostel experience ever. The hostel is simple yet super clean and very central. The staff is what makes this hostel very special with their kindness and their availability. I ended up feeling at home and felt sad leaving. I will definitely come back as they literally became friends.

    Great location and really helpful, friendly staff. The showers are good and clean and the hostel has an amazing patio garden and nice chill out areas which give it a relaxing and social atmosphere. The kitchen also has lots of utensils. A great, well-priced place to spend a few days exploring Tarragona.

    The room was small and neat, great space for a solo traveller. The bed sheets were clean too which was a big relief given I'd come from previous accommodation with unclean sheets so was nice to have. Hostel is in a great location. Free water and coffee. Very nice touch. Easy check in process. My room was upstairs which was great as the noise from below from the plaza didn't travel up b

    Fantastic location, right by a beautiful square. The hostel is above a restaurant which serves cheap food. The room and bathroom were really clean and we had fresh towels and beds made during our 2 night stay.
