Hostel with rooftop terrace and nightly social events in historic Vegueta
Amenities & Common Spaces
Las Palmas Nest Hostel offers three fully equipped kitchens, a coworking space on the terrace, and a rooftop with views of the ocean and the colorful hills of Vegueta. The hostel provides free WiFi and is cleaned several times a day by the staff. Guests have access to two kitchens on the terrace, though the electricity may trip if the washing machine runs simultaneously.
Accommodations
Rooms include private bathrooms, shared bathrooms, and dormitories with three-layer bunk beds that have limited headroom (approximately 50 cm clearance). Each room has a wardrobe, TV, and a seating area; some dorm rooms lack lockers and curtains. The double room with private bathroom offers a basic setup, but the bathroom in some rooms has no door, providing no privacy.
Location & Transport
The hostel sits in Vegueta, the historic old town of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, a 4-minute walk from Santa Ana Cathedral. Gran Canaria Airport is 19 km away (about 20 minutes by car), and bus stops reachable within 2 minutes connect to Las Canteras beach and the city center. Nearby landmarks include the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (700 m), Perez Galdos House Museum (under 1 km), and Casa Museo Colon (7-minute walk).
Social Events & Entertainment
The hostel hosts nightly events on the rooftop terrace, including beer pong, karaoke, trivia nights, movie nights, pizza nights, and bachata nights. A volleyball event is organized periodically, and pub crawls help solo travelers meet new people. During high season, these activities run regularly; in low season, they are less frequent but still scheduled.
Guest Services & Cleanliness
Staff and management are praised for their friendliness and helpfulness, with managers like Inka, Pasquale, Irene, and Barbara actively ensuring good harmony among guests. The hostel is cleaned multiple times daily, and the bedding and bathrooms are maintained to a high standard. Free coffee and muffins are offered daily, and the reception can assist with room changes if needed.
