We stayed at EL Palace for two nights ? and we had a great experience. We’re a family of three, travelling with our toddler and were warmly welcomed at reception ?. The Junior suite we were given didn't have a city view as they are situated on first floor, but it was well-equipped and nicely decorated ?. The breakfast area was large and staff were cordial. It could use some more variety ?, but overall we were satisfied with the service and atmosphere here. The location is perfect, with the main shopping street ?️ only five minutes away. We are so glad we chose Barcelona as one of our destinations ?! Our only slight disappointment was that the gentleman at reception who promised a birthday surprise for our daughter on the next day didn’t deliver ?. Otherwise it was a very comfortable stay and we plan to come back after a few years ? ? ?️ ? ?.
Visiting Barcelona with our family of five☑️, we stayed at this hotel for 6 nights. We had ?a fantastic experience, as the hotel had plenty of facilities to take advantage of, such as the rooftop pool and restaurant?. We didn't visit many of the local attractions, but still had a very relaxing time. The service was amazing? and the rooftop area was especially lovely?. Our rooms were also beautiful?and a huge bonus for us was the availability of connecting rooms?.
We have just returned from our second visit to this stunning location - a five day stay at this hotel and it was fabulous. The suite we were allocated was gorgeous, with a super jacuzzi bath. The breakfast was fantastic - so much choice and the service was great. This place is a wonderful base to explore Barcelona and the concierge and door staff are really helpful with any advice you need. The rooftop bar is beautiful and the pool was a welcome area to relax after exploring the city. The blues man bar was sadly closed during our stay, however we enjoyed a nightcap every evening in the lobby bar. Special thanks go to Fabio, the bartender who served us delicious drinks with highlights about the place and its history. He was so kind. Thanks to all the team for a wonderful stay and we sincerely hope to see you again very soon. Victoria x….
I visited Barcelona for the first time with my Daughter and our stay at this elegant establishment was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment We stepped foot into the building, We were transported to a world of timeless charm and unmatched luxury. Every aspect of our experience, from the stunning architecture to the impeccable service, exceeded my expectations. The hotel's ambiance is truly captivating, with its beautifully restored 19th-century building effortlessly blending classic elegance with modern amenities. The grandeur of the architecture, with its intricate details and opulent furnishings, evokes a sense of history and sophistication. It truly felt like stepping into a bygone era while still enjoying the comforts of the present. The highlight of our stay, however, was the exceptional service provided by the hotel staff. From the warm welcome at check-in to the personalized attention throughout our entire stay, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Their attention to detail and genuine desire to make my experience memorable was truly commendable. Whether it was arranging transportation, offering expert recommendations on local attractions, or simply ensuring my room was always sparkling clean, every interaction with the staff was met with professionalism and warmth. The breakfast was very good with friendly staff who made us feel very welcome. We had only two minor issues: not enough light in the bedroom, and a failed design of the curtains which makes it difficult to open the windows to the fullest.
We spent 3 nights at this hotel and were very impressed. The staff were fantastic and the historic building was well-maintained and full of character. The rooftop area was absolutely stunning, with its restaurant, pool and lounging area boasting 360-degree views of Barcelona complete with plenty of shade. The lobby was lovely, with its own foyer area featuring a pianist and bar - a great place to relax after a day out. The location was perfect, only a 5-minute walk away from the Gothic area. Our classic room was spacious, light, and cosy. All in all, we had an incredible stay - the staff definitely made it a 5 star experience.
