          Abstract

          RESUMEN En el transcurso de las últimas décadas ha existido un crecimiento significativo de hostels turísticos en las ciudades principales del país, fenómeno que repercute a distintos niveles en las zonas en las que se instalan. El objetivo de la presente investigación es explorar y documentar el proceso de consolidación del hostel en el ámbito urbano, tanto cuantitativa como cualitativamente, a partir del análisis de una muestra de cien hostels vigentes en 2019 y localizados en el municipio de Barcelona. El artículo examina su evolución en el tiempo atendiendo a cuatro atributos: el número de establecimientos y de las plazas ofertadas, la localización, la variación de la capacidad de cada hostel y la forma de implantación en el estrato construido. Del estudio se extrae que en las últimas décadas el hostel ha pasado de ser inexistente en la ciudad a disponer de edificios específicos, lo que permite confirmar su introducción como una forma de alojamiento nueva en la ciudad, así como determinar posibles criterios de crecimiento futuro que permitan reflexionar sobre sus efectos y la necesidad de responder a la nueva situación.

          ABSTRACT In the course of the last decades there has been a significant growth of tourist hostels in the main cities of the country, a phenomenon that has repercussions at different levels in the areas where they are installed. The aim of this research is to explore and document the process of hostel consolidation in the urban environment, both quantitatively and qualitatively, based on the analysis of a sample of one hundred hostels in force in 2019 and located in the municipality of Barcelona. The article examines their evolution over time based on four attributes: the number of establishments and places offered, the location, the variation in the capacity of each hostel and the way it is settled in the built-up stratum. The study shows that in recent decades the hostel has gone from being non-existent in the city to having specific buildings, which allows us to confirm its introduction as a new form of accommodation in the city, as well as to determine possible criteria for future growth that will allow us to reflect on its effects and the need to respond to the new situation.
