Casa Caracol is a hostel in Cádiz Old Town, 400 m from the cathedral and a 15-minute walk from La Caleta Beach. It combines shared dormitories with some double rooms, in a lively setting for travellers who want to socialise and explore the city. There are options for one person and rooms accommodating up to three; bathrooms may be private, external or shared. Handmade bunk beds, wooden furniture and, in some rooms, a balcony overlooking the street add variety to the spaces.
The communal areas include a shared kitchen, free tea and coffee, and a rooftop terrace with plants and hammocks. Free breakfast, Wi-Fi, bicycle hire, surf lessons and activities such as yoga and dance are also available. The port is 250 m away and Cádiz railway station is 440 m away.
