Booked a room for June 6-9, 2013, had to cancel in January. Owner promised multiple times they would refund my money as the date neared. Now they have declined to refund my money, despite the fact that the hotel is being renovated and will open until June 8th, so they would not have been able to honor my reservation anyway.

The Hostal Grau will be a great place to stay when the renovation is completed. The location is superb if you want to be close to the center of the city, and the owners are wonderful. In early May 2013 we had a reservation at Hostal Grau but, unfortunately, the renovation was still in progress and we were unable to... More

I have had some 8 or 9 stays in Hosteria Grau and everyone of them was spotless, friendly and very hospitable. Recently I went back to BCN and had a booking, but unfortunately, as can happen to anyone anywhere, the construction works weren't finished. The friendly and helpful owners contacted me in advance and offered to find another place to... More

This hosteria is near placa catalunya and you can reach everything by feet.

Stayed here for two nights. Location was fantastic,got a taxi from airport but the airport bus stops only 5 min walk away which made our return trip easier. Just a minutes walk from las ramblas,right in the centre of everything. Clean rooms,lovely bathroom with great shower and lighting. Decor rustic and tasteful. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed here over 5 years ago but then found that somehow Trip Advisor had saved this in my places somehow. I looked but didn't see a review posted from me so I thought I would write a quick one, although some things may have obviously changed. When I stayed here in 2007 I was on a very tight budget...

The hotel is very well located, in a small street parallel to the Ramblas. close to Plaza Catalunya where you can get, for instance, the bus to the airport. We had booked an apartment because there was no rooms left anymore. The apartment was in the adjacent building, the access stair to it was dark and dirty. The apartment itself... More

We stayed here because we needed a room for four. We travel with our two teenagers. We were supposed to have one big room, but we got two connected rooms. We arrived on a very rainy day after a long train and subway ride. They were kind to get our rooms ready for us, so we could unwind for a... More

We spent several days at this hotel after being delayed by Hurricane Sandy. The hotel was great, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the location is perfect. It is about a block off Plaza Catalunya. The hotel was clean and looked like most of it had been renovated not too long ago. There was a little construction on the... More
