Hotel berhampiran MUHBA Domus de Sant Honorat, Barcelona

St Christopher's Inn | Hostel in Barcelona location is good, near metro station, the facility need to take care as I can't access my room because of the low battery of the door sensor. reception is helpful , she help to solve the access problem, they won't provide locker you should prepare by yourself. all in all, it's worth for the value as it's in city center and near by metro station. for someone who need to move their big luggage maybe not easy because of the city sidewalk is not friendly.

The staff are very friendly and professional and made us feel extremely welcome. We just stayed for four nights for the F1 and although we were wearing all our fan gear we were treated the same as all the other guests which is lovely in my opinion! Big thanks and I'm sure we will visit again in the future.

The ambient is good but you need a decent service as well, especially regarding room and bathroom. I choose to pay more to have a bed in a shared 4 bedroom instead of 8. This what I found: no heating, cold room because the a/c wasn't working properly (daily temperature outside was 9° and 4° in the night), no linen to cover my body under the duvet (it's supposed somebody else used the duvet before me so it's not hygienic I cannot separate my body from the duvet with a linen), no automatic locker (you need a locket but they didn't inform you before when you reserve), the height available under the upper bed is not enough ample (I hit my head hard when I doubled my knees to access the locker under my bed. Same problem when you wake up, if you forget the height is not enough between the 2 beds you inevitably hit your head. Very unpleasant.), no personal bed light as normally available in all other hostel I visited. Bathroom and shower for men are separated, while for women are all together. Why, I wonder this difference? Why women always are treated better? It's not supposed we are equals? Well, I'm really unsatisfied and I suggest you, people, to avoid this hotel. Management is running it with the typical Catalan mentality: very greedy. They give poor services so they can have better profit. Not acceptable!!!

Firstly, the location of this hostel is excellently located just a block away from Diagonal Metro Station where three metro lines converge which made it really easy to travel with the metro. The dorm that I stayed in was a mixed one and was quite cramped, but what the heck - you only sleep there. Every bed had a curtain that could be closed to get some personal space which was great, so once getting into bed it felt quite spacious. The room had A/C and the bed had a small shelf with a bed lamp and an A/C-outlet. When I checked in the bed was already made which I believe is quite unusual at hostels and that made a good first impression. The common areas consisted of a quite large room for meeting new friends an an even bigger outdoor terrace. There is also a common kitchen and a fridge that can be used. This is probably the best cleaned hostel I've ever stayed at and the desk was manned 24/7 which is a great thing if you need help to order a taxi to the airport (I had an early flight so the Metro was not an option). Everyone at the desk speaks great English and were all very helpful.

Checking in was good and we thought we were in for a great stay. After that it was sadly downhill all the way. Rooms ok but basic, and upgrading to a Suite is definitely not worth the extra money. Take earplugs as the noise from the roads, restaurants, bin emptying etc is constant. The bar was not opened for our whole stay, and the staff were very dismissive when we questioned why it was not available. One receptionist just shrugged his shoulders and looked back down to his paperwork. After check in they barely acknowledged us as we came and went. No air conditioning in the rooms so we had to leave windows wide open at night - cannot imagine what it would be like in summer. No tea and coffee making facility in the room. No outside space to use unless you go down the road to the sister hotel. Basically confined to your room, and you had to go out to find all your food and drink as there was no Room Service on offer either.

Me quedé 5 noches en el alojamiento y la verdad que fue todo muy agradable. Los chicos del staff todos con la mejor de las ondas siempre y disponibles para toda duda que tuve. Destacar el trabajo de Ceci, Diogo, Alan, Sofi y Geri. Las habitaciones muy comodas y los espacios comunes de lo mejor del Hostel. El unico punto a modo de ”queja”, es que mi objetivo en el Hostel era conocer gente, dentro de todo de mi edad y justo durante toda mi estadia hubo un viaje de niños de primaria y secundaria, que ocuparon todas las habitaciones del hotel.

This review is in categories: Location, Amenities, and My thoughts. Location: The hotel is definitely well located, the metro (subway) is right outside, there is a shopping mall across the street and a couple restaurants around. To get to central Barcelona it took about 25min by metro. Amenities/Service: The room I got provided the basic of the basics (1 towel and 1 pillow per person). You can get more tru your stay but THERES NO ROOM SERVICE/CLEANING. The front desk was more helpful to other guests (who spoke spanish) than they were to me, just average. My thoughts: I like the hotel. I would definitely stay there again, now that I know how and where it is. I am not sure how the other floors are setup but my bed was so close to the other room (thin walls) that I woke up at 2am because they were watching TV loudly.

Never been so welcome in Barcelona. The bedroom is separate from the bathroom with a wooden door. Which is nice. But can see through the window and see the sea. That’s great

Absolutely everything you could want to explore Barcelona. Went for a weekend trip. Easy to travel to all tourist sites in Barcelona from the hotel. Receptionists were very friendly and polite. Very modern hotel in general and everything is up together. Buffet Breakfast was decent enough, food was of a good enough standard. Relatively quiet around the hotel but most likely as we went in December - which was a great time to go as it was just the right temperature for sightseeing. Still a couple of restaurant and a pub or two open nearby. Sleep quality was good with comfortable beds and minimal noise. Soft Drinks to buy in the hotel and tea+coffee were all a reasonable price. Nothing extraordinary but all basics were provided and it was very modern and well kept. Would visit again and recommend if going to Barcelona.

Please do not live in this hotel, it’s basically not in Barcelona, you have to take the public transportation up to 1 hour to get to Barcelona by transferring at least twice. The wi-fi is too unstable to even watch youtube video. Most importantly, some staff are NOT capable of their jobs. On the first day I came here, I called the reception and asked about the laundry fee, a Tall Thin old man told me and emphasized twice that the laundry fee is included in the room and said they would ask people to pick up my clothes. However, nobody came. When I called again, a middle-aged woman told me that I have to drop the clothes in the reception because they don’t have time for me now. As she said, I went down with my bag of clothes. However, an old man in the reception said I should not give them the clothes but to leave in my room. But they can ask people to drop the clothes in my room and then took them to the laundry. What a mess! When I picked up my laundry I was surprised that there was a long bill since the guy in reception clearly said the lauded was in the room fee. And when I went to the reception and asked, the girl with long blond hair confront with me and acted very condescending. To quote exactly what she said ‘No, you must misunderstood, you room even did not include the breakfast, it came with nothing, only the wi-fi. Laundry fee is not in the room, everyone knows!’ I explained patiently multiple times and asked her to maybe ask her college because I didn’t tell a lie but she rolled her eyes and literally said ‘I can’t do anything, if you don’t understand, you go ask my boss’ and pointed to the boss (an old man stand right besides her talking to another customer). Before I opened my mouth, this girl talked in Spanish to her ‘boss’ first and the old guy frowned. I was pretty sure she tell the truth. I didn’t say I don’t want to pay the laundry, but I have to check what I heard. The way these staff did their jobs and solve problems were one hundred percent unprofessional and annoying. I love traveling in Barcelona but these few people just made our impression on Spanish hotels go down.
