We very much enjoyed our stay at Moods Catedral Hostal Boutique. I don't think there is a better location in Barcelona if you want to walk in the Gothic Quarter, El Born, La Ribera, Ciutat Vella, and the area around the Barcelona Cathedral (among other places!). One wall of the cathedral is immediately in front of the building and was visible from our balcony, right before us. The Plaza outside the main entrance to Barcelona Cathedral is an atmospheric and lively place to spend some time with cafes and street performers, and it's just around the corner. If you want to head to Las Ramblas it's also a short walk, Plaza Catalunya and Passeig de Gracia are close at hand. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean, and except for the problem below, it was a great stay. They also have a good elevator, which is always appreciated.
United States of AmericaLocation was great. We could walk to most sites we wanted to visit. Located near the Barcelona Cathedral, so activity all around. Outdoor cafes, markets nearby. Next to the remaining portion of the Roman Wall. Ate at restaurants. Design is lovely and quite modern. Front desk staff were very informative about tourist activities, and able to arrange for tickets for Sagrada Familia and bus passes. Felt safe and secure with entering arrangements.
United States of AmericaThe Location was perfect. Walking distance to so many things we wanted to see. Close to the Metro. Rooms was small as they are in Europe but there was a seating area with endless coffee for mornings. The staff was excellent and so friendly.
United States of AmericaIdeal location. Very professional and efficient staff.
United States of AmericaWe got Room 16 which has a view of the back of the cathedral, the plaza, and the street. It was spacious for 2 people and could fit our 2 large size luggages. The receptionist were accommodating, friendly, and hospitable. Told them we were celebrating our anniversary and they gave a nice touch of rose petals and a red heart balloon on our bed when we checked-in. Bed was ultra soft and sleep was comfortable except for the noise from the room upstairs. I love that the toilet and shower room are separated. Wifi was also fast. Location was is excellent—walking distance from the gothic quarter and el born. And so close to the bus stop and Jaume 1 metro station. The moods is 3 bus stops away from Placa Catalunya.
PhilippinesIt was beautiful!!! Very clean, well designed and beautifully decorated. From the common area to the room I had. The view was beautiful as well! Staff was absolutely amazing, from start to finish. Thank you to the gentleman who helped me get a taxi to the airport.
United States of AmericaThis was more than we expected! The staff was awesome so friendly and very accomodating. We were able to do an early check in. The room had the most amazing view with 2 balconies! Room was a bit tiny, just because we had huge luggage. But all in all, everything clean, comfy, near gothic quarter and Barcelona catedral and walkable to most tourist spots
United States of AmericaGreat location! The room was very clean. We enjoyed the common area and coffee in the mornings. The bottled water was an unexpected treat as we did not have to keep buying bottled water. The staff was the VERY BEST! My daughter had her wallet and phone stolen. The lady at the desk helped her get in touch with us and provided information on where to get a new phone. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Barcelona!
United States of AmericaAside from the elevator which was scary we really enjoyed our stay. Shower was complicated but that is because we had trouble getting the rain shower temperature to comfortable which if we had asked the desk I am sure they could have explained it to us. All of the staff we dealt with were cheery, knowledgeable and really made our stay more enjoyable for sure.
United States of AmericaWe got a room that had a balcony and a bathroom. The room was perfect for 2. The staff was very easy to communicate with and very informative.

Host Info
Property info
They say the cities bathed by the Mediterranean exude warmth and tranquillity down to their every corner. At The Moods Catedral, we’ve aimed to transmit the lightness and simplicity of this landscape into our hostel in the centre of Barcelona, a unique and cosy urban refuge where you will feel at home in part for the conservation of the local architecture, the use of artisanal materials, typical of Spain, and a décor that is both comfortable and relaxed. We’ve taken great care with each detail to make our hotel in Vía Laietana your second home in Ciudad Condal. We achieved this thanks to some warm and understated settings that will connect you to the local essence while allowing you to enjoy the harmony and peace present through all our rooms. With a central location and great tranquillity, The Moods Catedral has two top features the urban wanderer yearns for. The architectonic value of the building we’ve transformed into a modern hostel sits at the centre of Barcelona.
