Hostal Barcelona Centro

We arrived at the hotel and there was a man on reception, who didn't offer any information about the amenities or anything else. The room no. 4 was small but very clean and modern. The first night was pleasant; air conditioning was working and it was quite. Unfortunately, the second night was unbearable due to loud music playing all night. Since there is no one on reception from the evening, there was nothing we could do. Just a word of warning, we experienced a case of double billing when we visited the cafe in the corner opposite the hotel. Overall, it was great value for money.

This hotel room was very beautiful and clean, with air conditioning. The hotel was conveniently located near a train station and subway station, as well as being close to the famed "La Rambla" street. The host was also extremely friendly and helpful.

We stayed here as a family with 2 kids and opted for a triple room - very good spacing. It was clean and smelled great. There was no fridge in the room but a big communal one with each room having its own box. The living room was nice, with a TV, computer, coffee machine (1€) and kettle for hot water. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The location is great, in the middle of everything, close to all the attractions in Barcelona and there are plenty of busses and metro stations nearby. We love to shop at Carrefour and there is one a 10 min walk away on La Rambla. Cortes Ingles is a 5 min walk while there are small supermarkets that are open 24/7. There is also a good supermarket a few streets away on the road towards Sagrada. We also found a great little bakery on a corner near Passeig de Garcia which had delicious baguettes and sandwiches. Would highly recommend this place and would stay there again when we come back to Barcelona.

We had a good stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the rooms were well appointed with enough power points, a modern bathroom, and surprisingly no street noise. While the bed was a bit lumpy and the A/C was a bit loud, overall it was a pleasant stay.

This was our first experience staying at a hostel and we were pleasantly surprised. The entire floor was clean and orderly, while the room itself had two single beds, a desk and chair, three shelves, nightstand, TV and Wi-Fi (which was just OK). The bathroom was small but had a shower stall similar to those found on a cruise ship. The mattresses were foam but still firm and comfortable. There was no breakfast included, however there was a room with a small fridge and table if you wished to bring something in. The location was great - on a busy street, but we could not hear the traffic from inside the room. It was within walking distance to Placa Cataluña and La Rambla. The desk staff were very helpful and friendly when it came to getting cabs, tickets, and directions. There was an individual in the hotel lobby serving as security who wasn't able to speak English, but she did her best to let us know not to leave our luggage unattended. For a hostel, it met all our expectations with just the basics provided at a very reasonable price.
