Located in the best area of Girona, close to all main areas of the city, this new Equity Point Hostel offers 2,3 4, 5 and 6 bed dorm ensuite. The building, completely refurbished this 2009, offers two big common areas with free wi-fi and internet acces and also expectacular views from the terrace.
Girona is the biggest city in the area north of Barcelona until the French border. The Roman city of Gerunda, located on the ancient Via Augusta (today the road known as Carrer de la Força) follows part of this Roman route which was taken from the Arabs by the Franks in AD 797 and became one of the most important cities in Catalonia.
From this medieval past, Girona retains a spectacular old quarter which includes one of the largest and best preserved Jewish quarters in Europe. A large part of the defence wall remains standing and is accessible to visitors.
Girona is crossed by 4 rivers, the most important being the River Onyar, which crosses the city through the centre, bordering the old quarter. The view of the bridges and colourfully painted houses that literally hang over the water is one of the most photographed of the city.
For some years now Girona has been a university city, which has given it a youthful atmosphere and turned it into an extraordinarily attractive centre framed by narrow alleyways, flights of steps and historical buildings.
Of all the city's great buildings, there are four that really stand out and which can be seen from many different points around the city:
- The Cathedral of Santa Maria de Girona is the result of several different superimposed styles and boasts the widest central gothic nave in the world. - The towers in the Passeig de la Muralla provide excellent views of the city. - The Bridges over the River Onyar: superb viewpoints and perfect for taking a walk and contemplating the beauty of the meandering river and the hanging houses. The Eiffel Bridge stands out for its iron structure, reminiscent of Eiffel's most famous work in Paris. - The Jewish Call: the old Jewish quarter. A labyrinth of pebbled streets, with thousands of magical corners. The perfect place to just wander around without any fixed destination.
The Equity Point - Girona is one of the Equity Point Hostels.
-Persons under the age of 18 years are only allowed to stay in private rooms or dormitory rooms that are booked for use of one family or group of persons, and can not share dormitory rooms with other guests. People under 18 years old must travel with their parents or legal tutor.

Equity Point is a very cool hostel (one of the best I've been), located in the heart of Girona. Rooms are comfortable and clean, and breakfast is very complete. Although the night guy in reception was a bit rude, in general the staff was very kind and helpful. I strongly recommend the hostel for every visitor in Girona!

L'experiència va estar molt bé. Llàstima que tota la informació que t'envien per correu només estigui en anglès. Què passa amb el català i el castellà?
Salutacions!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hostel in Girona. The location was ideal, just a short walk from the old town, our room was comfortable and functional, the roof top terrace is a great facility. The icing on the cake though was the friendly welcome and assistance offered by the reception staff. Nata(?)(slim young lady with glasses and nose piercing) was bright, energetic, informative, fun and very approachable. Aim to visit again and will recommend to friends.
One slight drawback was frequent door slamming in early hours of morning. The room doors are sprung so when fellow guests arrive home late or leave room to visit bathroom, doors automatically bash closed with shuddering effect. Unfortunately this disturbed our sleep most nights.
Overall a very positive experience and great value for money.
