The location of this hotel is incredibly central and allows for easy exploration of the city in any direction. The added bonus of having access to both bus and metro services right around the corner was extremely convenient. The facilities were impeccably maintained and exceptionally clean. The bed was also incredibly comfortable and the rooftop offered stunning views of the city in all directions.
During our recent trip to Barcelona to visit friends, we had the pleasure of staying at the same hotel for the second time. The service was just as excellent as we remembered, with one particular staff member who stood out. Daniela went above and beyond to make our daily breakfast experience truly enjoyable with her amazing customer service skills. It was clear that she outshines her colleagues and deserves all the appreciation and recognition. Thank you for making our stay even more special, Daniela!
We spent three nights at this hotel in Barcelona. The location was very convenient, with the town centre being within close proximity. Additionally, there was a nearby tube station just in front of the hotel. The staff at the reception were extremely friendly and helpful, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. Our room was lovely, with a cozy and comfortable bed and tasteful decorations. The housekeeping was also top-notch, with everything being spotlessly clean. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for accommodation in Barcelona.
wish we had been told this before.
This hotel is average in terms of quality and the staff were friendly. Our room was on the 8th floor, however, the street was quite noisy and the area is not great. We were close enough to walk to key tourist spots though. The hotel itself could do with a little renovation, and we paid for half board. We were disappointed with the breakfast experience - the waiter was also the cook and the food was limited to two choices, bread, cheese and crisps - which was more funny than desirable. We ended up eating out every night, finding a fabulous restaurant, though the rooftop bar which we had heard about was closed at 9 pm- it would have been helpful to be informed of this.

After booking months in advance, we were initially disappointed when we were given a room in the ? side of the hotel - room 222 on the 2nd floor. The interior lights were ?♂️, so getting ready was a challenge. The view from our window was not so great either - with several apartments, their laundry hanging and an alley. Nonetheless, we insisted on being moved and the ? staff were accommodating. The remainder of our stay was ? - the rooms were clean, breakfast was ? and the staff were helpful. ?
