Stayed here during a three days trip to Barcelona. Excellent location in the Gothic Quarter, the old city , but quiet enough to get a good night's sleep. We have choosen the room with shared bathroom. The room was really comfortable and the bathroom was always very very clean. There were excellent facilities such as free wifi and there is... More

A hidden gem right in the centre of Barcelona! Me and a friend stopped here for 5 nights in May for the Grand Prix and both thought very highly of this place. Marie was very helpful, she gave us a map on arrival and took time to point out lots of places worth visiting and answered all our questions. The... More

We really enjoyed out stay at Solyk. From the brilliant directions that got us from the airport to the hostel right through to restaurant and bar advice, the team were extremely helpful and only too willing to share insights and advice. Our room was newly renovated and so clean and comfortable. Street noise was noticeable but not unbearable. In fact... More

We stayed at Solyk over New Years' in 2011. We liked the funky design, amazing service from staff, and above all, location location location..... We didn't mind that much not having an en-suite, but could have done with having a bigger towel. The one we were given was more of a hand towel. The biggest drawback though was the noise... More

I've stayed at the SolyK 4 times now over the last several years and its hard to imagine booking another hotel in Barcelona. Perfect location, attractive, clean rooms, extra helpful hosts and staff. Like all places in the BG you will get some street noise, but nothing decent ear-plugs can't deal with. Totally recommended.

I stayed here during a five-day trip to Barcelona. It was the perfect base from which to explore the city -- comfortable and warm (I was there in December), very friendly staff with helpful recommendations, and a great central location in Barri Gotic, close to La Rambla, Pl Catalunya (for catching the bus or Metro), Barcelona Cathedral, restaurants and tapas...

This is a very clean, artful, modern hostal. Super location, as already mentioned by others. Yes, the street noise can be disturbing. My room was on the back side, but still noisy, the sound comes up from the back alley off Avinyó. Nothing that an ordinary pair of earplugs can't handle, though, and if **I** can sleep here (light sleeper),... More

Stayed here with a group of friends after first visiting 4 years ago. The location is great. Right in the middle of Bari Gotic, close to Ramblas, Placa Reial, walking distance to shopping near Pl Catalunya, bars and restaurants in Eixample, and beaches in Barcelonetta and beyond. Appartment was very clean, very funky design, quite simple with no tvs, but... More

We were greeted late in the evening by a lovely woman (cannot remember her name!) who showed us to our rooms, gave us a tour of the facilities and how things worked and then gave us a map with tips on best places to eat, what to see, where to go on the beach and historical places to visit.
