We arrived after a very long flight from Los Angeles to Hostal Opera hoping for a quiet, clean and comfortable place to leave our things and feel safe in at night while we rested.... this was not it. The rooms are ancient... the photos on their site are misleading. The bed was old and probably full of bed bugs... the... More

Will only corroborate what others have written for the most part. Would definitely recommend Hostal Opera Ramblas for people just looking for a clean, safe place to sleep while spending most of their time out in Barcelona. Located right by Liceu Metro station on the Ramblas. Near La Boqueria outdoor market. I had a single with private bath with a... More

we were 8 girls in Barcelona, renting an apartment who turned out to be horrible! after the first night we were wondering the city trying to find a decant hotel who is vacant enough for all of us, and that was Hostal Opera. the hostal is located in the best location - right in the middle of La Ramblas, the...

We stayed at this hotel from oct 25 till oct 29 2011. Though we had (in our reservation mail) expressly asked for a quiet room not next to the elevator, we were given a room next to the elevator. They didn't even bother to inform us by mail that they coudn't comply with our demand. Furthermore: there was some working... More

My friend and I stayed at this hostal for 2 nights to explore Barcelona. Upon arriving early we were allowed to lock our bags away in a back room while we went exploring. The proximity of the hostal to Las Ramblas, Placa Reial, and the metro are very good. However the side street the hostal is on is a bit... More

Stayed here for 8 nights and was completely happy with the experience. This seems more like a hotel than a hostel-- there are private rooms with bathrooms, but the rooms are very bare-bones. (The bed was a little too firm for me.) Don't book here if you crave luxury. Do book here if you want a good value, friendly service,... More

booked this hostel as price was within our budget (first of many stops through Spain). loved it. Staff very friendly, room clean and we had a really big bathroom. OK no TV in room, but who goes to Barcelona to watch tv, Great location, less than minute walk from middle of 'las ramblas' and metro. Didnt find the area outside... More

I dont usually stay in hostels, but we picked this one because we knew we would not be spending anymore time in it than necessary - Barcelona is too lovely to stay in a hostel! Room was small and bathroom even smaller but was more than enough to sleep ans shower. Staff friendly and helpful. Location is great - 1... More

I was immediately put off by this hotel based on it's seedy location. While Las Ramblas can feel a bit sleazy at times and we expected this much in Spain's major party capital, I felt this was especially true about the hotel's street. My husband was approached by a hooker just a few steps away from the hotel's doors! Despite... More
