Pensión Coral

Coral is a no-frills hostel in the Gothic Quarter, part of Barcelona’s Old Town. Plaça de Sant Jaume , Barcelona’s administrative centre, and Las Ramblas, the famous thoroughfare, are just a short walk away. Single, twin, double and triple rooms are available, most with a private bathroom. In-room amenities include a television, a fridge and a hairdryer while some rooms also feature a balcony with street views. Wi-Fi is complimentary. Coral operates a 24-hour front desk which offers left luggage and tour desk services. A vending machine selling drinks is also located in the reception area. Just around the corner, Restaurant Sensi Bistro Tapes serves top-rated Catalan dishes and those with a sweet-tooth will want to try the delicious ice creams at Gelaaati Di Marco on Carrer de la Llibreteria. A nine-minute walk, the Museum of the History of Catalonia offers a fascinating insight into local life. Not far from there are lovely sandy beaches ideal for swimming and sunbathing.
