Ideal location and incredible staff. The woman who checked us in even made a point of wishing me a happy birthday several days later as she had noticed on my passport. Bed was comfortable. Room was spacious. Shower pressure/heat were perfect. Great value for location. Very clean.

Kiran Canada

It was in the best Location for everything and the staff was friendly and helpful

Andrine Sweden

Perfect location in the city centre, yet very quiet at night. Exceptionally friendly staff willing to help with whatever you may need. Every evening when I was coming back, the room was waiting for me thoroughly cleaned. If I will be back (I hope!), I am probably staying at Pensió 2000 again. Muchas Gracias!

Michal Poland

Large rooms equipped with everything you need. Staff courteous and very kind. Located in a strategic position if you wish to visit Barcelona, at the same time it’s a quiet place to relax and sleep at night. We really had an amazing time there! Thanks for everything!

Alessandra Italy

The location is great, close to major attractions like La Rambla, Gothic Quarter, Barcelona Cathedral, Placa Catalunya, Arco de Triumfo, Mercat La Boqueria, transportation, restaurants. Plus the staff is great, most specially the gentleman who checked us in, I think his name was Carlos, really helpful and cool guy, he made our stay great. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone. Pro tip: ask for a room with a beautiful view of the Palau Musica Catalan facade. 👍

Juan Canada

Hostal del Palau exceeded my expectations! The room was big, bright and nicely decorated. We had a great view across to a colourful building (which I don’t know the name of!). Would definitely recommend!
