I would love to say what a convenient & clean hostel this is for families traveling through Barcelona, but having made my reservation last year, giving my credit card number, and talking with them as recently as last month about parking, I was informed that I do not have a reservation, though I have pages of emails showing that I...

The hostel is clean, the furnitures are new, the location is good. They were also really nice and helpful with us. The only negative thing was that the walls are thin, and we could hear the talking in the room next to us. Overall, I recomment them, I would stay there again. More

I Stayed here for 3 nights with my sister last summer and I must say that of all the hotels we stayed in during a 3 week trip, the Somnio was the worst. Rooms were clean, location was good, but i felt those were some expensive "pros" for 97 euros/night. Pros: - Good location, close to the metro and La... More

The staff here is very friendly and the location is really close to the public transportation and sights in Barcelona. I think I might not have been the typical person that stays here. It seemed like there was a younger crowd. My husband and I had a double room and the location of the room was near the check-in area... More

A few blocks from the subway, great location and reasonably priced. Stayed 7 nights and the patron must maintain their own room, but always free internet access. There is someone at the desk 24/7 so assistance available at all times. Friendly, informative people run the hostel. If you are prepared for basics it is quite good. Elevator requires that doors...

I stayed at Somnio for 1 night and thought that it was fine. It was clean, modern and nicely decorated. I liked the location because it was just a short walk to Las Ramblas but in a nice, quieter location. The local restaurants located around the hostal were very good as well. This is a good place to stay if... More

Located just off Las Ramblas right in the heart of Barcelona and close to the Metro Station. The rooms are on the small side and are pretty warm, don't expect aircon. Everything is very modern and clean, white tiled bathrooms with rain-showers! they do offer breakfast (cafe and croissant) but I recommend just going down to the bakery 10m from... More

We stayed at Somnio for 7 nights and would not recommend it. The online booking system was not very clear so we sent an email to ensure that the room had an en-suite bathroom, which the hostel promptly confirmed. However, upon our arrival, we were extremely dismayed to discover that our room was not en-suite but was actually shared bathroom.... More

Thank you for your review. We are very sorry about the mix up in room type. On hostelbookers.com, all rooms listed have shared bathrooms unless otherwise stated. It's a weird quirk on the site that confuses a lot of people. We've tried to make it as clear as possible in the hotel information section. I apologize for the confusion it... More

We spent two weeks on the road in Spain, staying at everything from a Parador to a sparse two cot room in small town Andalusia. Somnio was nice. Really nice. The beds were real beds and had nice sheets and good pillows. The place was quiet and easy to walk everywhere. We had friends in other hotels nearby spending four... More
