Hostal Opera - Our home in Barcelona.
Posted by Carambs
There were so many hostels to choose from in Barcelona, so we looked for one with good reviews on the net. Our choices were narrowed down to 2 - Hostal Benidorm and Hostal Opera. Good thing my friend’s cousin-in-law was based there. He offered to check out both hostels, and in the end, he recommended the Hostal Opera. He told us that the bathroom was nicer.
Hostal Opera is located at Sant Pau, which is one of the side streets of the Ramblas. It’s very near the Liceu Opera, the Boqueria Market, and Plaza Real. There was a Metro stop (Liceu) nearby. It was walking distance to the Barri Gotic district. As one of the companions said, we were in a “happening” place. It was a busy place at night.
Our room had 2 beds and was very clean. The bathroom was also very clean. However, the room was bare. Well, what can you expect - it wasn’t a hotel. The rate was 66 Euros per room per night. That meant each person only had to pay 33 Euros per night. For the location, the cleanliness, and the privacy, it was well worth it.
I can definitely recommend it to friends.
