Great stay at Hostal Mare Nostrum! The room and bathroom were clean, the staff were friendly, and the location was the highlight, right in the middle of La Rambla, making it easy to walk everywhere. It's perfect if you're after a clean, comfortable room in an unbeatable location.

A great basic hotel which was a base for us to crash, when needed. The staff were great - special mention to Ivan (He studied in Zürich, in case I misspelled his name!). The location was great and a quick hop on the Metro to take us wherever we wanted to go. Beds were comfortable, and we were left to our own devices. A great place for a city break, and close to Mercator de la Boqueria, where the tapas is delicious and plentiful.

Clean room, breakfast, a location that is hard to beat. Those are the good things about this hotel. Air conditioning is good on hot summer days. The hotel is off La Rambla in front of a metro station and across from the Gothic Quarter. One block from La Boqueria market. Only cons are that the building is old and the rooms are small. You have to walk 3 flights of steps to get to the lobby so beware if you have heavy luggage or mobility problems.

Very nice little hostal in the heart of Barcelona. The staff were super friendly and helpful, especially Claudio. The breakfast was excellent and at a very reasonable price. The only downside was the size of the room. But it didn’t matter that much as you don’t really want to spend your time in a room when you’re in Barcelona
