Perfect location, Hosts are perfect
No kettle, always leaving the keys & buzzing to enter main door
La situation , dans un beau quartier. L’accueil très familial. L’immeuble par lui même est superbe, un ascenseur presque centenaire dans un excellent état. Tout l’hostal est hyper propre et les chambres refaites à neuf.
Housekept by a joyful lady and her mother (I guess). It's located in the heart of Barcelona, right on a very prestigious boulevard, too. You won't be let down by the location, you can be sure of it. The building is old, and authentic. Has a historical elevator, which is a delightful experience. Albeit, a little intimidating lol. AC worked fine. No need to complain about the prices, I guess. Barcelona is just expensive, so, fair.
Unfortunately, the room service wasn't the best. I found my shoes yanked under the bed, twice. Found hair and dust on the cover sheets. The under sheets might have been clean, sure. But if it comes into contact with something I perceive as not, I want them changed, regardless. And don't want to explain my preferences. They should be changed everyday unless it's stated otherwise by the guest, anyway. No questions asked. This is the only thing that's bothered me. They keys... I understand it's either a security concern or maybe just a policy set by the keepers but it sure is kind of unpleasant. I want to come in and out of the hotel without being worried about what time it is and whether I'm annoying the receptionist. Because I sometimes do go in an out of the hotel 3 to 4 times within a 30 minute interval, it's happened before. Maybe changing to a card system would be better for all? Just a suggestion.
Very friendly staff
Perfect hosting from the owners..gracias!
Las amfitrionas muy serviciales y el apartamento súper aseado.
房東非常的熱心! 有提供行李寄放服務,房間很乾淨,床很好睡 地理位置很好!

Room size was decent
Room smelled and it was very noisy overlooking the street
Es un hostal encantador como los de antes. El personal fue muy muy amable y entrañable. La habitaciön muy correcta y limpia.
Por la mañana había algo de ruído en el pasillo. Al ser una construcciön antigua, los aislamientos de tuído no son muy efectivos.
The hostel is very well situated close to the Ramblas and Catalunya square. The room is small but has a fully functional shower with hot water and good aircon. Very comfortable bed and room cleaned cleaned every day. Lovely ladies on the front desk helped me out with my beginners Spanish. The hostel is situated in a beautiful old building on the 4th floor with a lift with a wooden carriage. Lift has enough room for two people or there are stairs for the energetic. The shutters are on the outside of the windows and I had to lean out to close them.
Rooms are not sound proofed so take earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Mainly people were quiet. Not much storage but ok for a couple of nights.
Nice location, friendly staff
Very small room, very wierd that we had to ring s bell to get in everytime. Much better to just have a key ourselfs to get in.
helpful and friendly staff and fantastic location
Tutto, dalla cordialità dello staff, alla tranquillità nelle camere, ci siamo sentiti subito a casa, lo staff parlava anche italiano, ai miei figli è piaciuto molto, il top soprattutto per la posizione fermata autobus e metro vicinissime. Super consigliato non sembra per niente un 2 stelle.

Localização e atendimento
Ar condicionado poderia ser mais forte para o verão
Todo muy bien y muy amables las personas
Good location
You couldn’t take your key with you and no one was allowed in your room regardless of time of day (hotel did not say this in policies which is very misleading). Air conditioning was also pretty bad and shower was not good.
Oulizia,posizione,cortesia del personale.
Bagno angusto,letti poco comodi,camera da ristrutturare benche' pulita. La sig.ra che gestiva la struttura,non consentiva di portare con noi la chiave! Si rendeva disponobile ad aprirci il portone e la camera ogni volta che uscivamo!Questo aspetto benche' garantisca controllo e tutela,diventa un vincolo a mio avviso notevole!Se dimentichi di comprare l'acqua alle due di notte,o ti va di fare un giro,devi svegliare la padrona di casa!!!
O localização é excelente; o ar condicionado funciona bem
O quarto é pequeno, com uma cama de solteiro. Pelas fotos e pelo preço eu esperava mais.
La posizione centrale, camera pulitissima e staff gentilissimo! Ottimo alloggio!
The location is excellent. The hotel has a beautiful entrance and beautiful settings.
The bed was not very good for me, but we all have different preferences.

La ubicación es excelente. Muy limpio, aire acondicionado con termostato en la habitación, el personal muy amable... no se puede pedir más. Repetiría una y mil veces.

Il palazzo degli anni 20', l'ascensore in legno e ferro battuto, la disponibilità e gentilezza dello staff
L'emplacement et la réceptionniste gentille
Je réserve un hôtel à Barcelone chaque été, et c'est la première fois que je suis aussi déçue. Nous avons payé 438 € pour deux nuits, un prix totalement injustifié au vu de la prestation. La chambre était annoncée à 15 m², mais elle était en réalité minuscule. Nous avions une vue sur une cour, juste en face de la réception, avec très peu d'intimité. Le pire reste l'insonorisation : dès le matin, nous entendions parfaitement toutes les conversations à la réception, comme si elles avaient lieu dans notre chambre. Impossible de profiter d'un séjour reposant. Pas de fer à repasser. Le rapport qualité-prix est très mauvais et ne correspond pas aux prestations annoncées. C'est une réelle déception, et contrairement à mes habitudes lorsque je viens à Barcelone, je ne reviendrai pas dans cet hôtel.
Hosts were very nice and sweet. They helped me with local tips and always asked about how my day was. The location is excellent, having Casa Batló on the corner and beautiful Passeig di Gracia in front of you. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. The hostel was quiet which made for a great night of sleep. Id definitely book this place again when I come back to Barcelona.
La ubicación es excelente. Recepción 24 horas, muy amables. El hostal es muy lindo, prolijo, y limpio. La habitación era muy silenciosa, y tenía una pequeña terraza.
Si bien tiene ascensor, para acceder a él hay que subir algunos escalones al ingresar al edificio. No hay frigobar en la habitación.
É a segunda vez que me hospedo e acho muito bom(limpeza, localização, atendimento),
Location value for money friendly staff. We were a family of four it was ideal
Room could benefit from a small fridge
Especialmente, el trato del personal y la ubicación

No contaba con alguien permanente en recepción
Loved the wooden lift up to the hotel. Perfect hotel for an overnight stay for work
Excellent location, friendly helpful staff
La atención, he ido muchas veces y la validez de las propietarias es incomparable.
Location, nice staff lady
Very basic, but cheap price. So you can not expect much more
Le côté « pension de famille » et l’accueil
Lugar aconchegante, excelente localização. Todos muito simpáticos e educados!
הוסטל מקסים, נקי מאוד. שתי הנשים בקבלה פשוט מקסימות! המיקום ממש מרכזי ובאותו זמן שקט.
Charming hostal! Perfect location and very nice front desk staff.
Nothing
La ubicación es perfecta, en plena avenida.
Cada vez q salíamos tenía q dejar las llaves en el hotel, y solicitarlas al llegar, si llegaba tarde tenia q avisar la hora para que me esperaran, lo que coarta mi libertad de llegar a la hora que yo quiera.
Ospitalità e centralità della struttura in uno dei quartieri più belli di Barcellona
Beautiful location, beautiful and clean rooms. kind people.
La amabilidad de las personas que te reciben siempre tan bien y con una sonrisa, me hicieron sentir como en casa y muy segura sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que viajo sola 😊
Tener que irme🥺
La ubicación y el ascensor.
The location and the cleanliness. They were tidying the room everyday.
The praised the water consumption reduction, but took away every towel every day.
Location. Hospitality. Comfortable beds..
Just one available wall socket in the room (in 3-person room)...+ 1 in the bathroom = not enough.
スタッフの方の対応がよかった
タオル交換して欲しい
Excellent Location. Beautiful building. Modernist decor. Clean very clean.Love the old lift at the entrance.
Airco pannel is fixed to the wall so I had to wake up to turn it on-off. Would be better to have a remote control. Overall a minor detail; my stay was great!
The two ladies working there are incredibly kind and sweet. The place was very spacious and the location was fantastic. My room was also spotless and very clean!
Not a big deal to me, but you had to leave your room key before you exit and buzz your way back up.
Location of the hotel is perfect, It was very close to the metro station and many tourist attractions. Even if the hotel is in the top floor in a building security was decent and employees are very helpfull.
Cleaning could be better. There is dust under the bed and corners on the room. Every time the toilet was flushed, water came back up into the shower tray. This was a major hygiene problem and it makes us uncomfortable.
The place is beautiful and unique, the host is super kind and the location is perfect. Highly recommended
The ladies at the property are absolutely amazing!! So Friendly and helpful. The building is quite old but that’s the beauty, it feels like a small step back in time with modern amenities and awesome location. I loved the old elevator as well as the sweetest ladies that work here 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Maria was the best
Su ubicación es muy buena!
Las toallas eran muy delgadas
La ubicación es excelente! La habitación super limpia. Estuvimos muy bien!
L'emplacement est incroyable, pres du métro, de la navette de l'aéroport et du centre ville. Les deux personnes à l'accueil sont très gentilles et souriantes
Le matelas est un peu de mauvaise qualité
Personnel très aimable et serviable, chambre propre, emplacement très central, juste à côté du métro et de la Renfe. L'hôtel est familial et se trouve dans un des beaux immeubles du Passiez de Gracia. Atmosphère rétro qui a son charme.
Locatie en het aardige personeel.
Limpieza y ubicación bien.
No sirven el desayuno. Mi vuelo llegó muy temprano y no me dejaron entrar a dejar las valijas.
La ubicación es perfecta, limpio, cómodo, la atención es sensacional. Gracias! ⭐️💗
La habitación 5 está muy pegada a la recepción y puede llegar a escucharse mucho el ruido de entrada y salida.
El lugar es muy lindo y las señoras que atendieron fueron muy amables. Valoro mucho las medidas de seguridad del hostal. La ubicación es excepional. Volvería a alojarme aquí aunque pienso que el precio es un poco caro ya que la habitación era pequeña, sin embargo lo pagaría nuevamente por las medidas de seguridad y la belleza del hostal. Las sábanas son de primera calidad. La próxima vez que vuelva a Barcelona sin dudas me alojaré en Hostal Olivia.
Me hubiese gustado que haya un acondicionador en el baño, solo había shampoo y por el precio que cobran podría haber acondicionador también.
L’emplacement , la propreté, la Gentillesse du personnel

Ottima posizione comada per tutto sia per l' aeroporto che per visitare la città. Camera pulita e spaziosa..
Lo céntrico.
Fantastic location
Posizione ottima per girare al centro, letti comodi e tutto pulito. Il personale accogliente e gentile.
Ho pagato molto, anche se capisco sia nella media di Barcellona.
Não há nenhum ponto positivo a ser citado. Experiência péssima, desde o atendimento até as acomodações. Tivemos um problema com o ar condicionado que não foi resolvido e a equipe não estava minimamente preparada e muito menos disposta a lidar com a situação. Quando fizemos a reclamação junto ao Booking para pedir cancelamento, ainda fomos confrontados e coagidos pela atendente que, inclusive, nos mandou calar a boca enquanto ela falava sozinha (ssshhh). Fora o transtorno (financeiro e emocional) para efetivar o cancelamento e buscar outra acomodação para o mesmo dia à noite (por volta de 22h00 no horário local) sem que isso prejudicasse financeiramente a sequência de uma viagem de férias. Sem quaisquer dúvidas, pior experiência com uma hospedagem.
Tudo, toda a experiência. A resposta anterior reflete muito do que foi a estadia (se é que pode-se chamar de estadia, já que chegamos às 14h00 e saímos às 22h00, somente tendo deixado as malas no quarto). Você é obrigado a deixar a chave, mas com todos os seus pertences e documentos dentro, o ar condicionado não funciona, o quarto é abafado e apertado (ao contrário do que indicavam as fotos), estrutura antiga e antiquada, banheiro minúsculo e desconfortável. O atendimento, então, nem se fala. Nunca vivenciamos um atendimento tão ruim em viagem como aqui.
La ubicación es de lo mejor
Las habitaciones no son insonorizadas, se escuchan ruidos de las otras habitaciones
No hay desayuno y la ubicación es excelente
La ubicación y el buen hacer de las anfitrionasp
Posizione eccellente al 4°piano di un palazzo signorile, stanza luminosissima e accogliente con due finestre su Passeig de Gracia. Siamo stati accolti con cura e ricevuto ottimi consigli per il cibo.
Niente di negativo a parte che abbiamo soggiornato solo una notte nel weekend della Moto GP a Barcellona quindi il costo aveva un deciso sovrapprezzo rispetto allo standard.
Calisanlar cok iyi ve yardimsever. Otelin konumu cok merkezi ve guvenli. Her gun carsaflar duzeltiliyordu ve temizlik iyiydi. Binadaki tarihi asansör eski zamanlarda yasandigi hissi veriyor.
Odaya diger odalardaki sesler ve disarinin gurultusu cok fazla geliyordu. Uykusu hafif olan biri icin hic uygun olmaz. Minibar olsa daha iyi olurdu. 6 gun kaldim ama havlular hic degistirilmedi. Bunu talep etmeme gerek yoktu.
The location, cleanliness & friendliness of the staff
The size of the bed.
Posizione eccezionale, edificio molto bello e curato, personale cortese e disponibile.
Camera molto piccola.
