Nestled between the Mediterranean coast and the colossal Montserrat, Barcelona's deep historical roots stretch through the ruins dotting the city and the local culture and Catalan language. You'll feel you're traveling through time, whether you're watching popular events such as the colles castelleres (human pyramids) and sardanes dances, or walking narrow, maze-like streets and broader boulevards. Stroll from the Gothic Quarter through Passeig de Gracia, where Roman ruins, Gothic cathedrals, and remnants of the Spanish Golden Age and the Civil War stand side by side with surreal and modernist structures by Gaudí and Domènech i Montaner. Stop at any of the numerous restaurant terraces and enjoy traditional calçots and botifarra sausages, flavor-packed tapas, and fresh seafood. At day's end, treat yourself to a refreshing cocktail in one of the many Chirringuitos (beach bars) along the golden beaches embracing the sea.

Me and my friend stayed at this hostal last september. Really it didn't feel like a hostal at all we had our own twin room with a bathroom. We found the place very welcoming with the man at the desk being very helpful. It's close to public transport so you can easily get to main attractions in Barcelona. One thing we did find a bit odd is it was really hard to find because its in like an apartment building where other people live, and you have to press on a buzzer to get in the main door and then another buzzer to get in the hostal. This wasn't an issue as the man behind behind the desk was always quick to let us in, but it is a pain if you've just got outside and you've left something in your room you have to buzz in all over again. No complaints about the noise. We had a TV with plenty of channels as well and the room was always clean.

We had an excellent 4-day stay in DV Barcelona. Very well-equipped rooms and loft. All very clean and good isolation. Great and comfortable beds. The indoor parking is a great advantage. Metro nearby (150m) very clean, practical, and safe. Due to an unfortunate incident of car crime (rear tire punctured while standing in line, but luckily, I was able to escape further consequences), we were unable to fully enjoy our stay, but a lot was made up for by the staff of the house. Charming, sweet, and very helpful staff they managed to help us, and everything went perfectly.

The check in and check our process was quick and easy. The hotel was clean and comfortable with new towels and cleaning everyday. The hotel is very close to metro stations and within walking distance to loads of places. Thanks for a great stay!

Centric and Cozy... KiwiDESTINY and was inspired on tropical fruits. Each Apartment and Suite has it name, it colour and sensations. Modern and bright apartments and suites with Kiwi own style and seal. With everything necessary to let you enjoy your business or pleasure stay, in the best part of Barcelona, with the feeling to be as you were at home.
Firstly, the level of customer service was excellent. Really above and beyond what is expected. For this reason alone, if I return to Barcelona I would give my custom to Kiwidestiny. The apartment was spacious, with an incredibly large outside patio area. I can imagine in summer how wonderful it would be (although the views are of backs of buildings) The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever experienced. A fully functional kitchenette. Shower was, well, temperamental, but when in the sweet spot was a pleasure. Wifi was, patchy, but serviceable with good speeds. Communal areas are well maintained and pretty. The only negative of my trip was that some building work was being completed, which meant no lay ins. Kiwidestiny is about 30 minutes from "the strip" which we really enjoyed. A really beautiful area, with you could need close by.

Honestly this hotel (hostel) is absolutely horrific. The rooms are so so so small it’s like staying in a cupboard under the stairs. The rooms are gross also. The shower was covered in mould. The staff are are rude and pretty useless. The receptionist sleeps at the hotel in a room by the desk. Every morning at 7am her phone alarm goes off - but she doesn’t get up for it!!! The alarm must of been going off for 45 minutes before I gave up and banged on her door to wake her up. The place is a genuine sh#thole. Honestly, look and stay elsewhere. You will only regret staying here like we did. Absolutely ruined our holiday break.
