HOSTAL RIVER, Barcelona

The property sits on a pedestrian street just 150 metres from La Rambla and Liceu Metro Station, placing it in the heart of the city. La Boqueria Market is a 4-minute walk away, and numerous shops, bars, and restaurants are in the immediate area. The Gothic Quarter and major landmarks are within walking distance. The central position makes car use unnecessary, with the metro providing fast connections to the airport and other districts. The immediate surroundings are lively, with street noise possible, particularly at night.

Accommodation includes rooms with either private or shared bathroom facilities. All rooms are heated; some come with a desk, street views, or a balcony. Private rooms include free toiletries and a hairdryer on request. Some rooms are interior-facing with courtyard views, offering potentially less street noise but less natural light. Triple rooms with private facilities and balcony options are available. The property is older and basic, better suited to travellers prioritising location and practical amenities over modern decor. Some rooms have air conditioning. A microwave and kettle are available in the common area.

Hostal River does not offer on-site dining or breakfast.
