At Hostal Hera, travellers highlight an excellent, central location and helpful staff, but also note the historic walk-up setting with no elevator and generally small, simple rooms, making it a straightforward base rather than a full-service hotel.
The lively neighbourhood brings frequent late-night street noise and some thin walls. Cleanliness is usually acceptable, but several reviews cite strong odours and recurring bathroom issues like leaks or inconsistent hot water. Overall, expect a budget, no-frills stay that trades amenities for a prime Barcelona location.

The place wast fast to find. The area around is the best we found a beautiful church and great shopping and restaurants. The staff were friendly and very helpful with any questions. The only complaint is the stairs. The main office is in the 3 floor and if you’re lucky your room will be in that floor. If not your room is in the fifth floor. It is a lot of stairs every time we had to go out.

Eine tolle unterkunft um ein paar tage in Barcelona zu verbringen. Es ist gut zu öffentlichen transportmittel angebunden und Gedchäfte und restaurants zu fuß erreichbar. Das Personal war stets freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das einzig negative: aufgrund des alten Gebäudes gibt es keinem Aufzug.

La struttura è piuttosto datata e, anche se era segnalata l’assenza di ascensore, non immaginavamo che sarebbero stati ben quattro piani da fare a piedi, il che è stato piuttosto scomodo. Al check-in siamo stati accolti da una signora molto gentile, che ci ha spiegato tutto e ci ha rassicurati sulla possibilità di lasciare le valigie in deposito il giorno della partenza. Peccato che al check-out una ragazza decisamente meno disponibile ci abbia indicato come deposito... un angolo del corridoio vicino alle stanze, senza alcuna sicurezza. La camera non era troppo piccola, ma mancavano completamente appoggi per gli oggetti personali. Il bagno era davvero minuscolo, con una ventola non funzionante. La pulizia lasciava a desiderare, anche se va detto che la camera veniva comunque sistemata ogni giorno. La zona è molto viva, ma anche molto rumorosa: il chiasso dalla strada si sentiva chiaramente fino alle 2-3 di notte, rendendo difficile dormire. Nel complesso, ci sono sicuramente margini di miglioramento, sia per quanto riguarda la struttura che per l'organizzazione del personale.

This hotel is located in a shared apartment building with no lift and basic hotel facilities. Sharing the building with other tenants, you could hear dog barking and lots of noises. The bathroom may flood due to a poor design. It should be listed as an apartment room instead of a hotel room

This is a very good Hostal. It is ideally located for easy walking to museums, restaurants, local landmarks, banking facilities and tours. Very clean and the staff were helpful. Excellent security and 24 hour reception. It is located on the 3rd floor of the building and the final staircase is somewhat narrow on the risers. Also the motion activated lighting on the staircases didn’t always work.

Great stay here! The property is straight to the point and exactly like the pictures. The staff even allowed us to check in 3 hours early, which was awesome and made our stay 10x better. Just beware that the hotel is on the 3rd floor, so you will have to walk your bags up! Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed the neighborhood. Many dining options along with bars, gelato, etc.

Very small room for 4 people, no space to move or for luggage. The room smelled bad of drains/sewage. It wasn't very clean either. The shower was ridiculous, the water floods the bathroom and it went through to the bedroom too. It's also very noisy, lots of noise all night from outside and you

Hébergement cher pour les prestations proposées dans cet hôtel. Chambre toute petite, nous avions choisi chambre double ville et nous avons eu une chambre donnant sur l’arrière de l’immeuble avec vue sur l’immeuble d’en face situé à 2 mètres d’écart. Nous avons rencontré des problèmes d’eau, plusieurs fois nous nous sommes retrouvés en pleine douche avec l’eau qui diminue jusqu’à ne plus fonctionner. Nous devions patienter jusqu’à 5 min pour que l’eau revienne. L’état général de la chambre laisse à désirer, joints noir dans la douche, sèche-cheveux très sale, seulement 2 cintres pour accrocher ses affaires. Peu d’endroits où ranger ses affaires, que se soit chambre ou SDB. Seul point fort, c’est la localisation de l’hôtel qui est parfait. L’hôtel est situé dans un quartier dynamique avec tout disponible à pied.

Location is great however with that comes noise till 3-4am. There are about 7 flights of stairs to the unit we were in so that's something to consider when hauling a lot of luggage. The unit was spacious enough with a small kitchenette which was nice. The biggest problem was no hot water, we asked about it and they said there was but no matter how long the water was on it was cool so showers weren't great. Overall it's a nice unit and a fantastic location with a few issues. We would stay again.

But the disappointment part for me and my friends was also the fridge. It has molds and stinks. We hope that they address that. We also disappointed that has no electric kettle every each rooms. I hope they consider that for the rooms are quite high and way apart from receptions were the 1 electric kettle. location: easy access to every transportations Center more or lesss the attractions area. It has also restaurant and groceries closed by.

The hotel is in a great location for food options, proximity to transport and local sightseeing! It is a walk up, and it was a little awkward to get into at first but the staff is amazing and very helpful! The only things to note; it’s a great area for nightlife and bars but this also means you have the noise to go along. The beds were also too hard for my liking. Otherwise, would book again!

This is most definitely a budget accommodation. I wouldn’t say I enjoyed my stay, but I didn’t actively dislike it. The room was small (as expected), but not like the pictures. The shower was nice and relatively large for a hostel en-suite. The building has charm, but lots and lots of stairs. The staff was 50/50 - one of the overnight staff was extremely rude after our air conditioning died, but most people were friendly enough. The location is great, but I personally would spend a little bit extra for a better accommodation if you’re planning on spending any time in the room at all.

La primera mañana nos despertaron las conversaciones altísimas de las trabajadoras junto a las puertas. Pero lo peor fue que ENTRARON EN LA HABITACIÓN SIN PERMISO solo para preguntar si queríamos limpieza, mientras nos estábamos aun despertando a las 9.30h. Me parece imperdonable esa falta de intimidad y formas.

Very enjoyable stay in Barcelona. The entire staff were friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, walking distance to the beach and brilliant eateries very close by. The restaurant across the street at Estacio de França was extremely good value. 15€ for 3 courses with choices plus wine, beer or soft drink included. Honest Greens around the corner is excellent. Paradiso is next door, very handy when asking for directions, everyone knows where that is. Room was a good size for 3, 1 double and 1 single bed. Air con worked well and the balcony with 2 chairs was a bonus. There's no lift but we're in our 70's and we coped ok. The reception is on the 3rd floor. Access via the intercom. Walkable from the bus station or catch a bus from Arc de Triomf. Barceloneta is the closest metro or Jaume.

The shower was nice and relatively large for a hostel en-suite. The building has charm, but lots and lots of stairs. The staff was 50/50 - one of the overnight staff was extremely rude after our air conditioning died, but most people were friendly enough. The location is great, but I personally would spend a little bit extra for a better accommodation if you’re planning on spending any time in the room at all.

Simple, no frills, comfortable and clean. Great staff. Most important to me was its location.

Great stay here! The property is straight to the point and exactly like the pictures. The staff even allowed us to check in 3 hours early, which was awesome and made our stay 10x better. Just beware that the hotel is on the 3rd floor, so you will have to walk your bags up! Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed the neighborhood. Many dining options along with bars, gelato, etc.

Excellent central base near El Born and Gothic sights, transport, and the beach, with many bars and restaurants nearby. Street noise late into the night is common.

Die Lage war Mega! Nur leider hat es ein wenig gestunken im Treppenhaus und im Apartment, vielleicht wegen den Rohren… aber sonst war es okay

The hotel is in a great location for food options, proximity to transport and local sightseeing! It is a walk up, and it was a little awkward to get into at first but the staff is amazing and very helpful! The only things to note; it’s a great area for nightlife and bars but this also means you have the noise to go along. The beds were also too hard for my liking. Otherwise, would book again!

Location is great however with that comes noise till 3-4am. There are about 7 flights of stairs to the unit we were in so that's something to consider when hauling a lot of luggage. The unit was spacious enough with a small kitchenette which was nice. The biggest problem was no hot water, we asked about it and they said there was but no matter how long the water was on it was cool so showers weren't great. Overall it's a nice unit and a fantastic location with a few issues. We would stay again.

Heerlijke hostel op een A-locatie in de wijk El Born. Midden in het oude centrum met veel vertier, maar toch rustig gelegen in een zijstraat. Dichtbij het strand, metro en treinstation, 10 min wandelen vanaf de Ramblas. Keurig, schoon, vriendelijk personeel. Geen ontbijt, maar talloze leuke tentjes om te ontbijten op slechts enkele minuten lopen. Aanrader voor een weekend Barcelona!

This is a very good Hostal. It is ideally located for easy walking to museums, restaurants, local landmarks, banking facilities and tours. Very clean and the staff were helpful. Excellent security and 24 hour reception. It is located on the 3rd floor of the building and the final staircase is somewhat narrow on the risers. Also the motion activated lighting on the staircases didn’t always work.

The room was nice and the staff was helpful. This location was also in a very beautiful part of Barcelona with a nice balcony. However, the walls were very thin it was very easy to hear my neighbors. Also, the bed was not very comfortable. Overall a satisfactory stay for the price.
