Excellent location, just few minutes walk away from the busy La Rambla Boulevard & La Boqueria Market for food and shopping. Friendly staff, easy check in and out. Great value for the location, have a very homey feel.

Amazing stay
3-night trip

8/10

An ideal place to stay for a few nights to rest, centrally located to the key attractions within an hour walking distance, friendly staff and clean and tidy rooms and bathrooms. Just make sure to bring some sleeping earbuds with you when you get to sleep since the rooms are located in a noisy neighbourhood and be wary if you got heavy luggage since there are no lifts. Overall, I'd happily stay here again.
2-night trip

8/10

Overall great for a few days of stay, but the water leaked through the wall and onto the room every time we showered. Other than that everything was great

A family tragedy had occured when the daughter of the couple that was booked for the room, had been tragically killed. Tried to cancel in thus extreme situation, but the property refused. I understand policy, but in this case it wasn't a normal situation, and no considerstion was given.

It is situated in a continent place, easy access to everything, the metro station is just around the end of the alley,and the staff are friendly, showed me the way to get around to the bus stop.
2-night trip

There is no elevator and our room is on the 4th floor. If you’re travelling with heavy luggage then this property is not for you.

Hostal River has a great location in the city, very friendly staff and it was a great time off in Barcelona. The room was very basic but you had all the necessities there. The room was cleaned every day and we had no problems.
1-night trip

10/10

The staff were very friendly from start to finish. The room was basic but great and very clean as was the toilet and shower. Stayed with my Son for a 3 night stay. Right in the centre at Liceu, close to everything. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend it.

Awesome location, clean, new, VERY accommodating. We arrived HOURS before check in. But as soon as the room was clean, we could ck in.

6/10

The price was acceptable. It is only a block from a main street with restaurants, entertainment, and transpartation. It opens on to a back alley and you have to go up 4 flights of stairs to get to the office and then another flight to the rooms.

1-night trip

8/10

Very good location. Clean room and bathroom. No problems with warm water (I had read about that problem before our trip...) Some in the reception didn't speak much English, but kind and service minded. The best thing with this hostel is the location and how clean it is. Good places to eat breakfast at, in the neighborhood. Metro and busconnection very close. If you don't spend a lot of time in your room during your time in Barcelona, then stay here. We should definitely do that again.
4-night trip

Value/price ok. Sometimes it was difficult to communicate because the employees were not able to speak English.

It was supposed to be a not smoking hotel and the 3 nights we stayed people were smoking inside. I told the clerk but nothing really happened, the last night of our stayed we hardly sleep because of the noise and smoke
