Lock in a great price for Hostal Marenostrum – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location was excellent, the room tiny. But it had nearly everything g you needed for a very short stay.

Janet, Australia

Position of hotel excellent for sightseeing. Staff very helpful with information on sightseeing and restaurants. Super breakfast. Staff offered to carry cases up to reception (the hotel is on the first floor and the lift only operates from the first floor upwards) Room small but adequate with good en-suite shower room. All very clean and nicely decorated.

John, Guernsey

I would sppreciate at the reception the computer which would have microsoft office. I needed to check something and I had to ask the receptionist...

Emma, Sweden

Anicka, Australia

Great location. Good breakfast in a renovated room facing the Ramblas with good people watching big window. Very nice staff with 24 hr service.

Dennis, United States of America

In the middle of the city center but still very quiet. Nice and easy staff Good breakfast Good WiFi connection

Frank, Switzerland

I had previously emailed and asked if we could request a balcony room as it was for my partners birthday. Although they couldn’t guarantee, when we arrived we found that not only did we have a balcony room with the best view of over Rambla , but they had also left my partner a birthday message and some chocolates. Room was small but extremely comfortable and very practical for our 3 night break, kept clean and made up daily. The location of the hostel is perfect, and although located right in the middle of Ramblas the rooms are very quiet and have excellent soundproofing. The staff were all very pleasant and friendly. Breakfast was of a good quality with enough selection, and the location of the breakfast room looking out over the street below is perfect. All in all a great little find, reasonable priced given the location. All in all, fell in love with Barca and will definitely be booking this hostel when we return in the near future.

Dan, United Kingdom

Friendliness and helpfulness of staff. Excellent location.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“Stayed in Hostal Marenostrum in July with my wife and 2 daughters. Location bang on the Ramblas is amazing. We were also lucky to have a room with a balcony on the main street. Family Room very comfortable and very well kept in general. B'fast, again served ovelooking the Ramblas, was always very fresh. The staff at the Hostal were also very friendly, particularly Claudio at the main reception who was extremely helpful and always had a smile on his face. If you like to be in the centre of all things without spending a fortune, then the Hostal Marenostrum is certainly your best choice in Barcelona.”

Eamon

“The only good thing about the place was its location, which was excellent. It was clean, staff were helpful, but it was very basic.”

“Perfect location of hostel (near metro station, La Rambla, near shop Carrefour, beach 30 minutes from there), really clean room, nice staff”

“Superb location and excellent staff”

눉Having to carry bags up one floor. But this was advised in an email so we were prepared. Air conditioning did not work well when it was more hot or cold, had to manually switch it on and off to adjust temperature.
눇Stayed 3 nights and enjoyed it. Brilliant location just opposite the Liceu metro station, convenient for a direct link to Sants train station and the airport bus stops at Catalunya 10 minutes walk away. The Miro mosaic on Ramblas is just opposite the hostel. Very nice lively area, we were here during the 23 April Sant Jordi day celebrations with all the rose and book stalls. Check in was smooth and quick. Was given Room 103 on the first floor. The reception is actually manned 24 hours and all the staff speak good English and were very helpful. Was requested to give the keycard back whenever we left and it was nice to be recognized and greeted by name whenever we came back. Asked Mickey about vegetarian restaurants and was given a printout of 5 places within walking distance. They had maps, gave directions and always had a smile. Impressed! The room is small but very well set up, folding shelves and practical hangars, cubby holes, comfortable bed. Very good space management. Good wifi and enough charging points. The bathroom is triangular and small too, the shower is basically a space between the loo and basin but good hot water and housekeeping kept the place spic and span. There was a small balcony with 2 chairs looking out onto Ramblas. Shutting the French windows and shutters cut down the outside noise completely, slept well. Breakfast was free and good, selection of cereal, fruit, boiled eggs and sandwich makings. The view out of the breakfast room is really nice too. We had a 7.30am train the last day and they had a basic breakfast selection available at 6am as requested. Great service.
