HOSTAL SANT ANTONI, Barcelona

The property sits in a quiet city-centre neighbourhood with easy access to shops, supermarkets, and bars. The Urgell metro stop (L1) is right outside, and the Aerobus airport stop is nearby, making connections to Barcelona El Prat Airport (12 km) straightforward. Many main sightseeing spots - such as Portal de l'Angel (1 km), Casa Batllo (2 km), and the Boqueria Market (10 minutes' walk) - are reachable on foot within 30 minutes. For drivers, public parking is available at a nearby underground garage (15-30 EUR per day), and the hostal can provide a discount voucher on request. The neighbourhood is well served by bus lines, and the quiet street means the immediate area is peaceful despite the central location.

All rooms are private (no dormitory beds). Room types include double, triple, and quadruple configurations. Bathroom arrangements require careful selection: some rooms have a private bathroom inside the room; others have a private bathroom located just outside the room on the same hall (external private bathroom). Interior rooms have a window and a bathroom window but limited natural light. The quadruple room is compact (approximately 12 m2) and has an external private bathroom. The triple room features 2 beds (a double and a single) with an external private bathroom and shower. All rooms include a refrigerator and a wardrobe. Air conditioning is available from late June to late September (7-10 EUR extra per night); heating is available throughout the cooler months. Parquet flooring and a balcony or patio are standard in all units.

Breakfast is served at the table in the shared kitchen/dining area. The selection typically includes bread for toast, croissants or doughnuts, sliced ham and cheese, packaged yogurt, fresh fruit, several juices, cereals, and unlimited coffee from a machine. Some items are limited to one per person (e.g., one croissant, one piece of fruit). The breakfast area opens onto two silent balconies, which are especially pleasant for families with young children. The property also offers free tea, coffee (capsule machine), and a water dispenser in the shared kitchen outside breakfast hours, and the kitchen can be rented for self-catering (8-16 EUR per stay). A number of restaurants, bakeries, and supermarkets are within a 3-5 minute walk, including Flax & Kale, Fabrica Moritz Barcelona, and Clarius Restaurant.

The hostal has no on-site wellness or sports facilities. Instead, the shared living room - which opens onto a balcony with city views - serves as a pleasant communal area for relaxing, reading, or using the free Wi-Fi. The staff at the tour desk can provide maps and recommendations for local leisure options such as walking tours, park visits (e.g., Montjuïc, Park Güell), and sporting events. The surrounding neighbourhood has several parks within a 15-minute walk.
