About
Barcelona City Rooms Hostal
Barcelona City Rooms Hostal sits on Carrer Indústria, in the Eixample district, about a 10-minute walk from the Sagrada Família basilica and 200 metres from the metro station of the same name. It's a 2-star property with two room types — Standard and Superior Double — each with a private bathroom, air conditioning, and heating.
The atmosphere is low-key and functional: self check-in from 13:00, a small team (described by guests as a husband-and-wife pair) who go out of their way to help, and public parking nearby. Wi-Fi is free throughout the building, and the hostal is entirely non-smoking.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Wi-Fi may be patchy in rooms — While Wi-Fi is advertised throughout the property, one guest reported it only worked reliably in reception despite notices in each room.
- Comfort can vary — The comfort rating is relatively low at 6.0, suggesting that some guests find the beds or overall comfort below expectations for the price.
- Language barrier with staff — The team's English is limited, which can make communication tricky for non-Spanish speakers, though guests still managed to get what they needed.
- Value for money is debated — The value rating sits at 6.9, and some guests feel the price is steep for the basic facilities, even if the location justifies it for many.
