Hotel Barcelona House

I have stayed at the barcelona house every year for the last 4 years, taking groups of students. I have always found the place excellent value for money and the staff friendly and helpful, location is great and rooms basic but clean. The Ritz it is not! but if you are on a tight budget you won't find much better in Barcelona!

Yes it's basic - one member of my party looked at his room and went elsewhere - but it's clean, friendly, in the right place and, at the 30 Euros pn for a single room that we paid on October 03, good value.

I have scars from bite i got from the bed, the shower was just a nightmare and the walls are thinner than paper. breakfast?? YUCK!! it was a 1st and a last. thank u.

The hotel was very clean and always tidy. It looked modern. I really enjoyed my stay there! i would definatly recommend it! It is in a very good position right off the Ramblas!

After booking this hotel, I saw the negative reviews here, and worried about what I was letting myself in for. Ignore them. The reception is very clean and art deco. Staff, without exception, friendly and helpful. Rooms slightly run down, but what do you expect at this price? Certainly were clean enough. Excellent location - come out of the hotel, turn right, and try the restaurant with the chicken barbecueing outside. Some people expect 4* accomodation for b&b prices. Highly recommended, and would definately return. Breakfast was... more

The Barcelona house is a great hotel for the money. The location is perfect, with the Gothic quarter on your doorstep and all the best bars and museums within a few minutes walk. The staff are all really friendly and helpful, from the cleaners to the manager. The rooms are cheerful if slightly spartan, and we had a great view down the street from our window. No hotel in this price range is going to be perfect - the showers were occasionally lukewarm and the street was noisy (this part of Barcelona is where the nightlife happens) but it... more

I would recommend this hotel to anyone who just wants somewhere to lay their weiry bones after a day of fun in the city! We stayed there in February 2003 and found it to be great value. We had a corner room which was very clean, towels changed every day. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good for the price. It is just off the Ramblas and within easy stroll of the best shopping, eating and drinking. The first night was a bit noisy but the rest of the week was fine, slept like a baby!! Basically it only cost us 65Euro a... more

The hotel seems to have spent all its cash on outfitting the lobby in modern style. The once funky colored hallways and rooms are looking dated. Hallway noise is unbearable at night and the early morning as every closing door echoes down the narrow hallways. We stayed in a double in November. The room basically fit the bed. The covers provided were insufficient for the cool nights and after requesting (3 times) for another cover were given one with questionable stains. I strongly recommend to AVOID this hotel.

We stayed at this hotel which was recommended. When we saw the lobby (which looked clean and very modern) we were impressed. However the rooms were old and had a very uncomfortable shower. Had a good location in front of famous "los caracoles" restaurant and "la fonda" restaurant, both are very good.

Went to Barcelona from November 2 - 10th and stayed at Hotel Barcelona House ... it was clean, neat and very functional for the price ... @ 34 Euros a night, including breakfast (Fresh Croissants and all the cafe, chocolate and zumo you could want!)It is one block off Las Ramblas and just a few minutes walk to the Mirador de Colom. There was always people walking around so I felt safe walking at night back to my room (important as a single female).The room was small, but I did not need a lot of space, the bathroom was clean. Maid service... more
