I am long overdue in writing this review, but here it is. Hostal Barcelona is basic in its amenities, but clean, centrally located (off the one of the main thorofares - Avenida Para-lel), with an efficient staff throughout. Stayed there with a group of friends in the summer of 2012 for a full week b/4 leaving on a cruise, and... More

this was my first time in a hostal and i was pleasantly surprised. i had a twin room for single use and the room was spotless, soap and towels were changed every day, and the continental breakfast was just that. i was worried about noise as i had read some reviews complaining, but apart from a couple of rowdy episodes...

Probably not somewhere I would stay again, but it's definitely a good place for students backpacking through with not too much money to... More

We stayed the night before a cruise and found it clean and the room adequate for what we needed. We weren't looking for luxury just a place to,get in position for the cruise. Lots of eateries and bars around. A short walk to Las Rambla and the port which has a lot of nice restaurants. We did need a taxi... More
