Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were amazing, complete with patio furniture and lounge chairs. They were nice and clean, easy to cool down, but a little small, although it didn't bother us much as we were mostly exploring the beautiful city. On the downside, the rooms felt a bit too tight, making it easy to feel claustrophobic, and the bed was uncomfortably small, impacting our sleep quality.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room I stayed in on the 6th floor was decent in terms of space and cleanliness, but it was quite small. Unfortunately, my stay was affected by being in a room connected to another with a crying baby who woke up early every morning.
The hotel's rooms appeared in need of renovation but were surprisingly comfortable despite being quite dark and too warm even after adjusting the AC. The service was consistently kind and helpful, offering drinks on arrival and providing a lovely terrace room with a cozy bed and excellent shower. The breakfast choices were varied and satisfying. The location was ideal, within walking distance to popular attractions and offering quiet surroundings. The dining experience had its ups and downs, ranging from excellent to mediocre. The facilities were good overall, although some areas could use improvement.
I can't believe my luck stumbling upon this gem! The rooms were extremely comfortable and clean, although a bit on the smaller side considering the price. The bathroom with the rainfall shower was a real treat. Despite the dated appearance, the beds were spacious, incredibly comfy, and offered mesmerizing views of the city that made me not want to leave.
The hotel had comfortable and appropriately big rooms, but could have done with a bit more storage space. The service was very good, with extremely attentive staff, especially in the restaurant. The location was very convenient and close to many tourist attractions, making it key to enjoying my trip. The dining went beyond my dietary allergy, enhancing my experience. The facilities were top-notch, adding to the overall satisfaction of my stay.
The hotel offers a lovely stay with slightly worn rooms but amazing views and great comfort, excellent breakfast choices. Service is generally friendly and accommodating, though some communication challenges were encountered. Its location is perfect for exploring Barcelona's main sites, close to attractions but away from noise. The dining experience is satisfactory with changing options. Overall, a comfortable and pleasant stay with minor hiccups.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The rooms were clean and comfortable but felt more suited for a single traveler than a couple, and the cold breeze from the window made it a bit chilly at night. The service was fantastic with kind and accommodating staff, even though there was a minor issue with the breakfast timing change. The location was excellent for sightseeing, though slightly removed from the lively parts of Barcelona. The dining options were hit or miss, with some nice choices but overall not very appealing. Facilities were satisfactory, with nothing particularly outstanding noted.
This hotel is conveniently located near the city center, offering a safe and quiet stay. The powerful showers in the decent-sized rooms were a plus, but design flaws and lack of wine openers were minor inconveniences. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff, making me feel well-assisted during my stay. The French pastry in the nice dining area was a tasty treat. The location was great, close to main attractions, and José's outstanding service was a highlight. However, the discrepancy in room sizes compared to the advertisement was a downside.
My stay at the hotel was terrific! The room was exceptionally clean, and the bathroom was stocked with lovely gels, shampoos, and creams. However, the sleeping area was a bit cramped compared to the spacious bathroom. The location was perfect for exploring the city, but the dining options were limited for vegetarians.
The hotel had friendly and accommodating rooms with fantastic views from the terrace and a balcony, although located at the first floor facing the street. The service was top-notch with a warm welcome including champagne, but some staff were a bit rude. The location was great for exploring the city and near key attractions despite needing some renovation. The dining options were good but could use some improvement. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel was advertised with a bath but was the smallest room I've ever seen. It was a little bit noisy even on the fourth floor. However, the staff were really helpful and friendly, especially Christina at reception.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were amazing, especially the view from floor 7 - a must for a beautiful sunset overlooking the Sagrada Familia and with a great location just minutes away from La Ramblas and SF. However, the rooms are quite small and had a joint door with the room next door which reduced some privacy.
The hotel rooms were clean, tidy, and comfortable, but could benefit from some renovation. The service was friendly overall but lacked effort in addressing issues. The location was excellent, close to the city center and major transport modes. The dining experience was good but lacked variety. The hotel facilities were satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with a few ups and downs. The rooms were very nice and had a nice view, but they were a bit small for the price, and unfortunately, they didn't catch the sun in the afternoon. The service was great overall, except for one minor hiccup. The location was perfect for exploring the city on foot, but not the most convenient for some attractions. The dining experience was average, with a mixed opinion on the quality of the food. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
