Guest Reviews
- RITA (10/5): - Todo está bien, el servicio del personal, es envidiable
- Malika (6/5): - Goede locatie , slechte bedden . Doche warm water hield er snel mee op . Tv op kamer die het niet deed . Locatie prima .
- jeannette (8/5): nice staff - really nice staff at the reception , thanks for everything...in the middle of bcn on a busy road, loud at night but really cool...15 min to the beach...
- Mario (8/5): - Ubicación perfecta casi frente al Mercado La Boqueria,está en edifico antiguo así que haya que subir escaleras el metro cerca se siente el paso del mismo y el ruido del pasar de la gente en la Rambla pero es algo entendible todo muy bien por parte del personal
Nos hospedamos en dic 2024
- SoniaP3894 (2/5): Overated and not worth it - Staying in la Ramblas is over rated. This place is not cheap. The heating is insufficient in winter due to a very small radiator in one corner of the room. The window is huge and has cold air coming in through the sides. There is no hot water in the wash basin. The shower is so badly aligned that the water falls everywhere else. Go and stay in gacia or any other place.
- kadota (10/5): - シャワーのお湯が、ぬるくなってしまい困りました。設備が古いのは仕方ないかもしれません。サービスは、要望伝えると快く対応してもらえて、助かりました。交通便利は、最高です。また利用したいです。
- Carmel (8/5): - This is a no-frills, budget accommodation. Being right on La Rambla, you feel like you’re right in the centre of things, so don’t expect quiet. It’s close to all the old town, plenty of shopping and dining too. I found it an easy walk (about 40 minutes) to La Sagrada Familia, Casa Batlló, as well as Barcelona Sants train station. The staff were very welcoming, kind and helpful. I enjoyed my stay, thank you.
- Nola (4/5): - Small unclean room. Loud drunk people all night on La Rambla. Shared balcony with the neighbor and no lock on balcony door. The check in staff was friendly.
- Ana (8/5): - Esta bien, seguro, tranquilo, sin mucho mas que decir
- Jose (4/5): - Location it’s good but bed sheets and towels really,really need s to be updated
- Anabella (4/5): - Primeramente hay muchas gradas para subir al hostal, el aseo no es muy bueno no van hacear el baño todos los días el basurero se llena pronto y la basura se acumula mucho, en la recepción casi no se ve personal del hostal por si uno necesita algo
- JodeyneWorkmanWorkman (8/5): - Good for the price, right on La Rambla with balcony overlooking the street. Very basic with shared bathroom/shower.
- Steven (8/5): - Properties was in a great location.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The worst hostel I have ever been. No cozy, no clean service, no soap, no private, no hair dryer. The workers are pretty nett, but I recommend to stay better condition, if you want to have beautiful memory in Barcelona.
- Brnd (8/5): - very convenient. book here if you want fun and excitement and most iconic street in Barcelona! La Rambla! enjoyed our stay here.
- Mikayla (4/5): - Bare bones accommodations. When I arrived, they had laundry hanging in my room that had to be moved out before I could settle in. I was visiting during a heatwave (obviously not there fault) and the fan in my room was broken and very dirty. No hot water in the shower I used. Other visitors very noisy well past the curfew. It got the job done, but I wouldn't stay here again.
- Gerd (8/5): - Das sehr nette Personal muss hier mal extra erwähnt werden!!!
- Luis (10/5): Nada mal - Hay que subir 2 pisos de escaleras y eso no lo menciona. En el camino te encontraras cucarachas pero creo toda la zona tiene.
La gente que atiende es muy amable, atenta y servicial.
Las camas y almohadas no son de lo mejor. No hay escusado en los cuartos. Leer bien.
Eso si. Tiene la mejor ubicación
- Olcia (10/5): - Nice hostel, good price.
- Janina (8/5): - Gut geeignet für einen Kurztrip. Sauber, freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. U-Bahn in der Nähe.
- Melissa (8/5): - War alles gut. Gute Erreichbarkeit. Relativ ruhig für eine Großstadt. Sauber.
- Alexandre (6/5): Cheap price, cheap room. - Honestly, for the price, it wasn't bad. We had a very large room, with a small balcony overlooking the Rambla. After seeing the other comments, I can say it's a bit noisy, but it wasn't too bad. On the other hand, you have to close the windows at night, which can be problematic as there's no air conditioning in the room, only a fan. So I wouldn't recommend it in the middle of summer. The shared rooms were nice and clean. The other travelers were discreet and quiet. The mattress and pillows were horrible though. Really uncomfortable.
- Agnelo (2/5): Ruim - Ambiente sujo, nem a Tv nem a água quente funcionou. Insegurança e barulhento.
- Souaber (2/5): - Very bad hotel
- Sheryl (8/5): Great location, bring earplugs - This is on a great location, right on Las Ramblas across from the market. Kind and helpful staff. Bring earplugs....lots of books. Slow internet but works.
- LIs (8/5): Jeg kommer gerne igen. - Det var rigtig fint at bo på Hostel Parisien. God placering. Badeforholdende var ikke de bedste, men det gik. Fin seng og rent og pænt og venlig service. Ville gerne bo der igen.
- Dk (6/5): - It’s the normal for Barcelona. Big difference than an American hotel but you just figure it out. Staff was really nice and helpful
- Mylene (6/5): Moyen - Personne qui nous a accueilli très souriant et sympathique. Hôtel dans un immeuble très ancien même les fenêtres sont a l'ancienne et dans notre chambre ne fermée pas correctement il y avait du jour en bas plus air....
Attention le "parking disponible" est une société de parking a 15 min a pied de l'hôtel et PAYANT !!!!
Plafond de la salle de bain moissi et qui s'effrite, odeur de remonter d'égout dans la chambre, confort literie très dur. Pour le prix .....
- Vanessa (2/5): - .
- Fatih (6/5): - Es war okey, für diesen Preis
- Gregory (8/5): - I absolutely loved the affordability and convenient location of the Parisien, which was right in the middle of La Rambla. Douglas and the other staff are very also very friendly and accommodating. The inside was very quiet for the whole week that I stayed there.
- Tamas (6/5): - .
- mohammed yassine (8/5): - I like emplacement
- Kevin (2/5): - Hotel
- Pierpaolo (8/5): Solo per la posizione - Indubbiamente la forza di questo “hostal” sta nella sua posizione. Sulla Rambla quindi comodissimo. Per il resto definirlo albergo è sbagliato. Camere spartane con piccolo lavandino, servizi in corridoio. Che altro? Nulla. Non c’è neanche una macchinetta per acquistare l’acqua o un caffè. O meglio le macchinette ci sarebbero ma sono spente e fuori servizio. Per il prezzo è davvero troppo. Rimane la Rambla.
- Petia (8/5): - Sitio muy bueno
- Afrika (10/5): - Un muy buen lugar para hospedarte en lugar céntrico en Barcelona, limpieza impecable y los de recepción súper educados, excelente lugar
- Fabio (10/5): Ótima localização - Ótimo atendimento. Localização excelente.
- Carlos Rolando Rios (10/5): - Su localización está excelente!!!! Su calidad por el precio es accesible y lo vale ya que normalmente Barcelona es muy cara!!! Muy tranquila y un trato de su gente muy amable!!!
- Anita (6/5): - Muchos mosquitos que no nos dejaron descansar, la limpieza no estaba bien, el barrio un poco peligroso y te cobran por el check in pasadas las 10 de la noche.
La atención de los chicos buena, pero la infraestructura y las camas dejan mucho que desear.
- Emine (8/5): - -
- Mihai Iustin (10/5): - Hat alles sehr gut geklappt !👍
- Ismael (2/5): - Parece un piso patera
- Valentina (8/5): - Meine Erfahrung mit diesem Hostel war insgesamt gut. Es ist sehr gut gelegen, man ist sofort im Zentrum Barcelonas (Einkaufsmeile la Rambla) und wo auch immer man hin möchte ist alles sehr gut erreichbar, sowohl zu Fuß als auch mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Klar, gerade weil es SEHR zentral liegt, kann es nachts auf den Straßen lauter werden, da muss man einen Abstrich machen.
Was man auch bedenken muss ist, dass wenn man ein Zimmer mit privatem Badezimmer bucht, nicht automatisch die Toiletten dabei sind, soweit ich weiß gibt es nur Gemeinschaftstoiletten. Da wir die meiste Zeit aber eh immer unterwegs waren und so oderso auf öffentlichen Toiletten angewiesen waren, war das nicht so schlimm. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und die Toiletten wurden auch stets sauber gehalten. Auf Anfrage werden dann auch die Zimmer gereinigt.
Das Personal war sehr sehr freundlich, und waren immer für uns da. An Tag des Check Outs haben sie sogar das Gepäck für ein paar Stunden beaufsichtigt, das war klasse!
Wem Luxus nicht wichtig ist und nur einen Ort zum übernachten sucht zum kleinen Preis ist hier richtig.
- Guillaume (8/5): - Personnel gentil et accommodant. Chambres vieillottes et lit qui creuse au milieu. Pas de mouchoir dans la chambre, petite télé dans la chambre présente mais à 2,5 mètres du sol. Brûlure de cigarettes dans les draps, cheveux trouvés dans les draps….. pas de crochet ni de pôle à serviette. Hôtel non fumeur mais veilleur de soirée fume dans sa chambre, odeur de cigarette très présente. Porte de chambre qui se verrouille avec poignée seulement, murs en carton et on entends tout du voisinage. On entend aussi le métro sous terrain qui fait gronder légèrement l’immeuble.
- Wendy (6/5): - The location is right in the heart of local life and action. The area around the building are medieval streets steeped in history and charm. Transit to the airport is also close.
- Abdo (10/5): - The place is really good
- Maurice August Anna (6/5): - Jammer dat de wc en de douche gedeeld moest worden.
- john (4/5): Never saw the room - My flight was cancelled so I didn't arrive until the following day. The hotel had 2 phone lines, neither of which was answered over 2 days nor could Hotels.com contact them. I arrived a day late to find my room re-let! Jorge who worked there was very helpful and found me a room elsewhere. But what a farce, no phones working!
- Claire (6/5): - Amazing location, staff really friendly, but rooms are way too hot. I wouldn’t stay there during hot months. There was a fan up on the wall but it didn’t help much. I’m sure it’s perfect in the off season.
- Olga (4/5): - Muy ruidoso. Poco limpio. Mucho calor
- Stefania (4/5): Pessimo - Stanza pessima. Lenzuola sporche, balcone condiviso con altra stanza senza protezioni, Nella mia camera poteva tranquillamente entrare il vicino in qualsiasi momento. Mai vista una cosa simile.
Per non parlare del bagno. La porta si apre a metà perché dietro c è il lavandino. Nessuna asciugamano in dotazione ci siamo asciugati con le lenzuola. Unica nota positiva che il personale per lo meno è stato cordiale
- Francois (4/5): - Central, mais prix exhorbitant pour ce qui s'avere n'etre en fait qu'une chambre de bonne ni plus ni moins.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Très pratique pour du tourisme - + Super localisation, Hostal sur la Rambla face au marché de la Boqueria
- La literie : draps troués, propres ? 1 chaise pour 2...
C'est un hostal et pas un hôtel c'est sûr.
Pour qq nuits ça va même pour 120 €, ce qui semble un prix "bas" pour Barcelone centre...
- Beomjin (8/5): Good place as a backpacker - The location was very nice (among La Ramblas street) and close to the metro station. We stayed 2 nights and a good stay for backpackers. If possible, it would be an updated bed cover for the next customer.
- August (6/5): - FANTASTIC location - directly on La Rambla, this was an incredibly convenient hostal, less than a block from the Mercado with plenty of cheap, tasty food. The room was small but had a comfortable bed.
That said, the window opens onto La Rambla which is a loud, bustling street every night until about 5 or 6am, so if you have trouble sleeping it will not be easy here. There was one funky shower, and another bathroom which didn't have towels to dry your hands stocked and at one point ran out of toilet paper.
Fantastic place to stay if you need somewhere close to the center of everything and a little privacy, but all in all I think I may have been better off in a hostel for the price.
- Adriana (8/5): - Está cerca de todo, la ubicación excelente, el servicio no tanto, faltaba papel en los baños, al mencionarlo al encargado sólo decidió no poner, al entregar la habitación la mujer sólo me quitó las llaves sin siquiera voltear a verme.
- Rafeef (6/5): Okayish for one night - Bed was comfortable.
Wifi wasn’t available at the bedroom
Location is centeral and walkable to restaurants, cafe, shopping, late dinning , bars , etc..
- David (8/5): SIN MASCARILLA - Lanwstancia bien,lo uniconque me molesto fue que tanto los empleados y encargado del hostal iban sin mascarilla,tambien los hospedados.
- David (8/5): SIN MASCARILLA - La estancia estubo bien,lo unico de lo que tengo queja es de que tanto el empleados,encargada y gente que se hospedaba en el hostal iban sin mascarilla por el establecimiento.
- mohamed (8/5): - Impeccable juste pour la porte de la salle de bain saurais était mieux de mettre une porte coulissante comme ça sa gênera pas le lavabo et la tete du lit cest mieux de la fixé au mur par ce que comme des qu'on tape un peux sa fait du bruit et c'est tres gênant merci
- YEONHEE (8/5): - 조금 추운거 빼고는 너무너무 너무너무 좋았어요. 호스텔 계신분도 친절하고요. 저는 일단 독방 썼는데
층고가 높고, 뭔가 유럽유럽한 느낌이라 방 모양 자체가 넘 좋았어요. 그리고 진짜 발코니 나가면 바로 람블라스 거리가 훤히 보여서 아주 마음에 들었어요. 단지 발코니를 열면 미친듯이 시끄럽긴한데 저는 좀 예민한 편이 아니라 잠도 잘잤습니다
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Pratique, bien situé, suffisant pour 1 ou 2 nuits.
- David Ale (8/5): Goos - The room and bathroom were nice. The only thing I didn't like is that the cigarette smell was very strong in the lobby.
- Uri (10/5): Great location - Very nicely located and clean.
- Mathias (6/5): Anonymt, men okay - God beliggenhed på Ramblaen, men opgangen er meget anonym og nem at misse. Bare en alm. lejligedsopgang. Værelse og generel stand var noget slidt. Der bliver ikke gjort rent løbende. Kun et toilet/bad til deling. Der manglede ofte papir på toilettet.
Kommer ikke retur. Vil hellere bo på hostel, eller rigtig hotel.
- oulichki (6/5): - Bien
- Zahia (10/5): - Super agréable je vous recommande, personnels super gentil et serviable, la chambre très propre
- Marjorie (10/5): - Marco was really amazing and prepared dinner for me after a very long day for a great price. He also made a delicious breakfast & brought it to my room which made the stay very pleasant & helped a lot with the current restrictions in Spain. Will definitely stay again!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great value. Quaint and charming, and the location is amazing. I booked a private room and bathroom and it was very cozy for a 5-day trip alone. Orbitz listed the room as a twin bed but my room had a full bed, which was a pleasent surprise! The staff speaks enough English to communicate what is needed and only one employee seemed annoyed that I didn't speak Catalan or Spanish.
- juliallan (8/5): Good value and comfortable 😊 - Excellent central location, the staff are friendly /helpful . Room was spotless with a balcony looking onto la Rambla .The bathroom is shared with other guests so sometimes access is limited / very clean though. Great hot shower !! No lift so 4 flights of stairs .Staff help with luggage . I will stay again thanks !
- So Ping (8/5): - Good location, convenient transport, nice staffs. However there is no window in the room for air circulation except the balcony. It’s not ideal to share the balcony with next room. It’s quite noisy even at night if the balcony door was open and may disturb sleep.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Worst accomodation I've ever stayed in. - Dirty, people smoking cigarettes in the hallway with a dedicated ashtray. Room very dusty and extremely hot. Shower filthy and falling apart.
Seriously, do not stay here.
- Peter (8/5): Happy with my stay. - I enjoyed my stay, staff were very friendly. Couldn’t ask for better location, right on La Rambla street.
- Lily (8/5): Great place in the heart of the gothic quarter - We had a good experience here for one night! Felt safe, we had a private room with big windows on a balcony where we could dry our stuff, and one towel each is provided. it was just so hot (despite the fan) but that is not the hostal’s fault :) I recommend !
- Everlyn (8/5): Excellent value for money and perfect location - Great value for money. Location is excellent!! Staff was great. Overall we were very happy with everything. The only negative we would say would be there was no air conditioning. So it got a bit hot during the day. However at night there is a cool breeze so It wasn’t that bad. Plus we had 2 fans in the room. Thank you for a lovely stay hotel parisien
- Cory (8/5): Great stay for Barcelona! - My husband and I were thankful we had a room right next to my brother. The hostel was so easy to access but yet we felt safe entering and exiting at all hours.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Smelled like sewage - Just a terrible experience. The room smelled almost like sewage the entire night. The bed was impossibly uncomfortable. It was loud the whole night. Spend the extra 10-15 euros and get a better hotel. This place is trash.
- Yash (8/5): - Friendly atmosphere. Very welcoming and helpful to get around Barcelona places. I was unhappy about the shower and the size of the bathroom, and the loud construction noises but overall it was enjoyable stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Incredible location, central for those beach lovers. Found rooms & bathrooms always clean, cleaned regularly, free toilet paper is always a plus. Very friendly owner/manager!
Only negative is quite noisy on weekend as expected from the busy streets of La Rambla
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Likes - Staff and it was clean
Dislikes - Bed was rock hard, room very old and dark & there were 4 flights of stairs (no lift) to get to it
- Verified traveler (2/5): - They were under major renovation work, very strong paint odor. Refused to reimburse us - although we clearly could not sleep there.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Disgusting place ,if there are only shared bathrooms at least have a decent shower .
- Verified traveler (4/5): - I booked the hostel in error. When I arrived I realised my mistake and attempted to get Expedia to negotiate with the Hostal Parisien owners. They were not willing to offer any token gesture to me which disappointed me greatly considering I had a child with me so staying in accommodation where the bedroom was literally off the reception area in which music was thumping constantly. The bathroom was not only shared but had to be accessed via the kitchen...
I cannot recommend this venue in any way.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very nice stay. Slightly noisy but that is to be expected when right on La Rambla.
- Geraldine (8/5): - Great host . Very clean I just wish it was a little more quiet in the facility . You can hear all that goes on but honestly we just needed a bed to sleep in for a few hours and was ok with the conditions. The host was very helpful and sweet
- Sara (10/5): Friendly staff and very clean room! - I stayed in Barcelona for the weekend top visit the city. The hotel was right across the street from Mercado de La Boqueria and central walking distance to a lot of sightseeing. The hotel experience was just what I needed. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating and the hotel was clean.
- Victor M (8/5): Great location at la Rambla. Basic hostel - Excellent location with a balcony facing the rambla. Basic hostel with shared toilets. They are strict about not letting visitors in which was a little inconvenient. Mario and Carlos from reception were really nice.
- Michael (10/5): Perfect for travelers - Heart of the city. Amazing price. Clean rooms. If you just need a simple place to stay, I highly recommend it here. Friendly staff. Couldn't ask for more.
- Russell (8/5): Kings day - Booked last minute for a one night stay in Barcelona to see the kings parade
Great location right on Las Rambla
- MarcusHurley (8/5): Bargain stay - The hotel is in a great location, right in the centre of the Barcelona action. Bathroom facilities were clean and my only concern was the dodgy lock on the room, so I used a chair wedged against the door! Absolute bargain price too.
- Marcus (8/5): Bargian stay in a great location - The hotel is in a great location, right in the centre of the Barcelona action. Bathroom facilities were clean and my only concern was the dodgy lock on the room, so I used a chair wedged against the door! Absolute bargain price too.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Orbits participants must be warned of this location.
I injured myself on a replacement fan. It’s severely cut my foot when I was in the room. I have a photograph of my injury that can be sent to you if you would like to have it.
The room turned out to be so noisy that I was forced to find a new location to sleep in the middle of the night. It was a dark rainy and cold night when I did this, and the people on the street at that time made me feel less than secure.
The next morning, when I returned to collect my bags from this horrible location, the manager offered to move me to a new room. She did so however only after I advised that I would give her location very negative reviews on Orbitz and other travel websites.
I was also told that no refund would be issued, even though we could not sleep there even one night. I lost $550 to this location.
My recommendation is that orbits should’ve sensor this location and do you listed entirely from its offerings in Barcelona.
- Lunden (8/5): First time in hostel - I’ve never stayed in a hostel before and I kind of freaked out when I arrived and I realized it was a hostel. But it was super clean and they were super nice and I really enjoyed it. However my window was broken in room 207 and the La Rambla street was really loud so the 2nd night I had trouble sleeping even though I had ear plugs. But it was a good price, super clean and I would stay there again.
- Benjamin (6/5): Place to "sleep" not to "stay" - The hotel is in a great location directly at La Ramblas. However, the shared bathrooms are in questionable condition. The room condition was ok. Sink and fan in the room. All-in-all a fair hotel to stay a night or two but I wouldn't spent too much time there. It's more a "for sleep" place.
- Tasma (4/5): Not a good recommendation - Be prepared to climb up 4 flights of dirty stairs.
The bathroom was dirty and needs renovating .Dirty shower curtain.
All guest share. The supplied items were 2 small packets of shampoo. No soap at the hand bain in room .
No sleep . In a great location but to noise level in the hostel from the street below never stops. People laughing till the wee hours. Then the garbage trucks arrive. So no sleep at all for three nights.
There is nowhere to sit other than reception. No where to make a cup of coffee.
I asked for hot water was told from the tap.
Staff were ok but the manager didnt speak English .
Other than the location . I personally wouldn't recommend this as a place to stay.
Expensive for what was offered.
- Edvins (8/5): Nice place. - The stay was nice.
- Karen (10/5): Great location - It was great however our room was used to dry sheets off of our balcony which was a bit annoying
- thomas (10/5): a good stay - central to city centre very clean and friendly staff
- Marjorie (10/5): Modest yet Charming - My stay was short and sweet. I arrived rather late but the woman who was there helped me with my luggage (note that there is no elevator). The rooms and bathroom were modest and clean with nice high ceilings so you feel as if there is a lot more space. I would definitely stay here again, as the location is very convenient and you’re a short distance to many of the major sites. Definitely recommended!
