The staff were really friendly, helpful and spoke good English. I stayed in a single room which was basic but clean and tidy. New towels were provided each day. There was a communal area with complimentary tea and coffee. You could buy a host of drinks (beer, water, coke) from reception. Free WiFi and a computer which you could use... More

We wanted to book a room in this hostel for 4 nights with our 2 kids. We wanted to pay one month in advance with our bank card. After having had spent some hours with it on phone and on internet (because of misunderstandings about spelling, mail accounts and then, on our side, with money changing and so on), there... More

The hostel was reasonably clean and in a very good location. An easy shuttle from the airport and very close to Placa Catalunya. There is also a travel agency just a few doors down so that was helpful when booking the bus tour. The staff was friendly and it wasn't noisy at night. My only small complaint is that the... More

One of the girls spent ages trying to help me find some shoes I wanted to buy. Really helpful. Central location but not noisy. My Room was basic but clean and just what i needed. Recommend it for anyone.

I stayed here about 12 months ago when we went to Barcelona. What a stunning city!! When we got into central Barcelona we got lost and couldn't find our bearings but eventually did get to it via a taxi and it turned out it wasn't even that far from the centre. About 10 minutes on foot. Upon arrival we were... More

We found a very cheap hotel for one night , but it was so good, it was clean, nice staff, balconies, no noice from the street, only the bad thing about this hotel is the enterence which is located in the residential building and on the 3d floor :) funny, the rest is good

I liked the location but I had a drunk/drugged crazy person one night that made lots of noise outside my room and when I went out to investigate he tried to push himself into my room. I had to pull the door closed on his fingers but he wouldnt let go and kept shouting at me in Spanish! I was... More

Hostal Central's location is just great, just some minutes by feet from Plaza Catalunya and metro stations. It gives you a good opportunity to reach any place you plan to visit in Barcelona. It's easy to get from there to Casa Batlló, Las Ramblas, and by the way to/from airport too, because aerobus's stop is right on plaza Catalunya. There... More

Central to all attractions- La Rambla&Plaza Catalunya. 5 mins and your at the hub off all activity and to buses & metro. The hostel itself is basic and worth the $60 euros a night but it's no luxury. We had the basic double room with shared bathroom and it was ok. If you come in summer there is no air... More
