Perfect for couples ok with tighter quarters

We loved this hostel! The room we had was small, there was a queen bed, a sink and dresser/organizer in the bedroom area that you could unpack into and then a bathroom with a decent sized shower in a separate room. But it was cute, we had a small balcony with a table and two chairs with an outdoor lantern that was so romantic and the front desk was clean, friendly and SO helpful. Helped Ian organize tours, call taxis, they do a small continental breakfast until 11am and then have coffee tea and water available after that all day. We would definitely stay here again, we each had a checked bag and a carry on duffel and a small personal item and it was difficult to fit it all in the room but we stored the hard case suitcase on the balcony and once we unpacked on the organizer/dresser we didn’t have to open our suitcases again which was nice. Perfect for our 4 night stay in Barcelona. We were super close to a bunch of sites as well and the metro/bus station if we wanted to venture further out

Great Stay, Weird Info

The Hostal Central was great overall - the only drawbacks were the lack of correct information we got ahead of time. Hotels.com lists check-in as happening from 8:00 - 23:00 every day, when actually these are the hours of reception and check-in was at the more normal time of 14:00. The wifi was a little spotty (although admittedly I was testing fate by watching Netflix) and although I had asked ahead for two twin beds instead of a double, I got a double, which was a letdown. That aside, the room was clean, the shower was lovely, the aircon worked a dream, and the location was, as the name suggests, very central.

We liked that the rooms were renovated and the housekeeping service was superb. We liked the location and the free coffee or tea and pastries every morning. We had hot water all the time without any problems. The young girl from the reception was very friendly and polite, but the older one not really. We didn’t like that is noisy, the walls are not thick enough and we could hear the young couple first then there were kids and also the noise from outside. Even though I would recommend the place as the location and the renovated rooms definitely worth the money !

Cute room for a nice price

I highly recommend this hostall! Great price for the amenities and location, and it was perfect for a solo traveler. I loved the room — the bed, the shelving surrounding the sink, etc. One very small criticism: it’s a little confusing trying to find the lobby (they share a building with another hostal and the lobby is behind a window-less door on the second floor). But I eventually figured it out and the staff was helpful. The light breakfast bar in the morning is also a nice touch.

Great Staff, modern rooms, central location

Great stay. Was here during MWC 2019. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Great location that is walkable to many attractions (Sagrada Familia, Gotic Quarter, Las Rambla, etc...) and also good access to public transportation. There was a bus nearby that went straight to the convention center for MWC. They also provided a nice breakfast every morning. Cant speak highly enough about the staff there as they were incredibly helpful with logistics and reccomendations. Rooms were a bit tight, which is what you would expect in Europe, and it was also pretty clean. Would be nice if they provided a few more amenities (better soap, kleenex, more towels, etc.) but these are minor nits. Overall it was a great spot and the service was amazing. I would stay there again for sure!

Service as amazing! They literally couldn’t do more to help! Room was lovely, really nice decor and very clean! We even had a mini balcony! The only slight downside was the noise of the traffic passing as it was a busier road than we thought it would be. But overall an amazing stay!

Excellent Affordable Hotel

Great stay. Away from crowds but close to Metro. Front desk was extremely helpful. Very very clean. Free coffee in the morning along with crossiants and little donut holes. Bathroom small but manageable. Before booking looked at lots of other places that were much more expensive and still had small bathroom. Can’t beat this place, especially for the price. Thanks to hotel staff train info to Tarragona and for providing us with location of fire station.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was nicely updated and clean. Also it was available as early as they could make it when I requested. The only thing is the room is quite small. There’s not much extra space and the shower has a clear glass door, so you have to be quite comfortable with your roommate. Two things I wish they provided - an iron and a full length mirror. Outside of the smaller size, it’s a good, clean, easy place to stay in BCN. I’d recommend you stay as a single or only if you are in a relationship with the other person due to the shower location and door.

Definitely recommend it

We were the first one to stay at the hostel, since it had just been newly built and just finished decorating the room when we got there on our first night. The lady there was really kind and friendly, she helped us with everything we need and even helped us carried our luggage to the second floor. The hostel is really easy to find, since it’s just at the corner and it’s really close to the metro station which is about 3 minutes walk. The room is completely new with all the new furnitures and new bed new everything. Sometimes we can hear noises from the other rooms, but it wasn’t that bad, it didn’t disturb us. The shower was great and the AC heater worked just fine, it helped us a lot since it’s really cold in Barcelona. The location is great for the price.
