El hostal Fernando es un establecimiento que durante muchos años fue regentado por mis padres y tios, por lo cual intentamos seguir ofreciendo un clima familiar a nuestros clientes. En la biografía del Premio Nobel Mario Vargas Llosa, habla que a su llegada a Barcelona en el 1958 se alojo en nuestro establecimiento.

Soy hija de hosteleros por lo cual he tenido varias etapas con los clientes, la primera cuando era niña y tuve profesores de ingles que se alojaban aquí, la adolescencia y juventud la pase haciendo amigos , y ahora muchas veces me siento la madre de muchos de ellos.

Nos encontramos justo en medio del barrio gótico y ciutat vella. La calle Ferran une las famosas Ramblas con la plaça Sant Jaume sede del ajuntamiento de Barcelona y la Generalitat de Castaluña. Estamos rodeados de historia (barrio judio, catedral, Santa Maria del Mar , Palau Güel....)

Quite poor breakfast. Especially, hiatal has its restaurant connected. For the breakfast you got tost bread and some add-ons like cheese and cheap ham. For the price, they should serve at least some very simple meals like cooked eggs or similar, since they have kitchen with those possibilities. Rooms are mostly dark with tiny windows facing walls very closely, although it is the characteristics of the Gothic neighborhood block.
Amazing location, clean and nice rooms with good shower.

It was all as expected. I have stayed before in this hotel.
Location is really excellent. It is a 100 metre away from La Rambla and from there you are everywhere very easily. To the beach you can walk in about 15-20 minutes, to the cruise ship harbor it is also around 15-20 minutes. The hotel is connected to a restaurant where you can get some generic food with a discount. So thats also convenient. The WiFi is fast and the cleaners really make the room clean and also they spray some kind of wonderful smell . There are a few (Irish) bars close to the hotel and also a lovely square with various restaurants. Breakfast is a bit limited but what is there is good. If you are from Asia, there is no noodles, rice, or jianbing or anything whatsoever, but there is plenty of bread etc.
