This is the 2nd time i have stayed in this hostel and both times i have got a private room with my own bathroom and both times there have been no complaints. Its not a flashy place but its located one street off La Rambla and is very affordable considering the location. Easy to access from the airport using the... more

I was travelling through Spain by myself. I was looking for a room that was clean, safe, and in the heart of the action, but low on noise. The prices are inexpensive. This is definitely not a youth hostel atmosphere. There were lots of families staying here. At night, the street noise could get a little annoying at times, but... more

This is the third time I have stayed here. The rooms have always been clean and the staff very helpful. Next door is a restaurant, bakery, and bike rental shop. Very close by is Placa Catalunya's tourist office, metro station, department store, and La Rambla. The internet access is also a plus as well as air conditioning in the summer... more

I had quite a hard time searching for an acceptable hotel/hostal in Barcelona that was in my price range. I finally went with Hosteria Grau. It is recommended in Rick Steve's travel book.

We stayed at the Hosteria Grau in the 2 bedroom apartment in early June 2009.

Would not be a problem, but the apartment has no phone. So, there is... more

Great little Hostal really close to Las Ramblas and public transport etc. We were out here for a football so this place was a perfect base to soak up some of the culture. When we arrived we were told we were being upgraded to an apartment at no extra cost. Very clean and comfortable It had a nice balcony and... more

Our reception at this hotel was very good - it is centrally located (Though locals note it is on the fringe of not so nice area ? - anyway we were fine - the room well appointed and clean. We only stayed on a Sat and Sun night - perhaps not the best for noise - Sat night we were... more

I really liked this hotel it was my facorite out of all the ones we stayed in during our trip around Europe. The rooms were really cute and homey the bathroom was very nice and had plenty of space. There was even a lounge area that had couches and a tv and a computer with internet which was really nice.... more

The location was great, the room was big and comfortable for a family of 4 (2 bedrooms and a living room). The service was great as well although the price does not include breakfast. The only problem was that our room was in the 4th floor and not elevator so I was exhausted when I finally got there. But in... more
