I came across Baires as I was looking for something at the last minute. Everything was booked up but I managed to find a room at this Inn. The rates were just in my budget which was ideal as other hostel in that area were higher. The place is nicely located and the beach/Old Town is near by. The rooms... More

1,Located at a alley of bar ,very close to the beach,so it would be a little noisy. 2,There is no independent toilet with inconvenience. 3,There is only a old man who just speak Spanish in the service desk. You get what you pay for.The price in this area is worth.

Hostel is located 2-3 minutes from La Rambla and Port Vell and it is its biggest advantage. However if you are looking for outstanding quality, you can be disappointed. It is clean inside the room and in the bathroom and you could expect cleaning service everyday. From that point of view everything is ok. However you should take into consideration... More

The only one good thing about this hostal is its location. The entrance is not very welcoming at all.Cimbing the stone stairs to reception with 4 suitcases was not an easy task.Then we were shown our doubleroom with own bathroom (i booked this as i had looked at the professional photos) what a disapointment! The windowpane was broken and it... More

Wanted cheap accommodation in a convenient location for our weekend city break and Hostal Baires was ideal. Booked a double (two single beds pushed together) ensuite and got a room with a balcony, which was great to sit out on with a beer watching the world go by. The room was basic, but spacious, very clean and the shower was... More

Hostal Baires is great value for money as long as you know what you are letting yourself in for. Communal toilet, no tv, basic breakfast, noisy environment etc. Being in the gothic quarter of barcelona for £50 a night between two of you kind of cancels out any minor problems in my opinion, the staff are friendly and helpful and...

The location of this hostel couldn't have been better. Right on a main vein inside the Barrio Gotic, easy to navigate to, close walking distance to the beach and just a few twists and turns to La Rambla or in the other direction, the 'Born neighbourhood' and about 10 mins up to Plaza Catalunya. It was basic, however the price... More
