location convenient with direct bus to/from airport. Metro and city tour bus are directly near hotel. The air condition did not work, unable to produce cool air, so that the room is indeed very much warm. I believe in summer it will be turned on, but in mid-march, without cool air, the room is still very warm.

We had a comfortable room with a beautiful view of the plaza. The hotel was conveniently located near transportation and restaurants. The reception staff was busy but helpful when we were finally able to speak with them, The restaurant staff were not welcoming to the point of not acknowledging us as we waited to be seated, They gave the impression that if they ignored us, we might leave and they could go home more quickly. It was frustrating.

It is in a good position for the metro and the airport bus. It is well and quickly connected to the centre and other parts of the city. The rooms are not sound isolated and during the all night I could hear people passing by. It is rated as four star hotel but it should be downgraded to 3 stars. Breakfast is not included and costs a fortune. 2 hundred meters away on the main street you can find lots of patisserie and cafés for the morning breakfast!

Very convenient location with subway and airport bus stops just in front of the hotel. Only a few steps away from a much less touristic part of town. Nice new shopping/restaurant center Las Arenas just across the street (very touristic, though). Initial supply of bathroom supplies (shampoo, etc) was not replaced/refilled.

Helpful and nice personnel, beautiful room with nice view to Plaza Espanya. Great location; quiet area (no pickpockets around), shopping center, park, restaurants and the fuentes next to the hotel - not to mention the metro station which was practically on the main door. The Sauna department was quite what we Finns are used to. :-)

Mrs Mariana and Ms Linda at the reception are excellent. The location is nice for city visits. Some staff at the reception does not belong to this level of a hotel, this staff may be appropriate for a slum hotel. For international visitors, most of the staff is only bodies, because they cant speak a word of english. The rooms never saw a vacuum machine since they were made. The staff believes that room freshner sprayed generously is a substitute for vacuum cleaning.The maintenance of the rooms is horrible, basins are blocked, toilets do not flush... An excellent hotel, being run into the ground by poor house keeping, zero cleaning, and no maintenance - heard of this before? This means the chief is sleeping, nothing else is wrong. If the chief wakes up or if a new one is installed, this hotel will become the best hotel in Barcelona.

Nice location and view from the room; very good and cosy restaurant. Nice room service, working until very late. Bathrobes are neat. The biggest problem was a dead air conditioner. It was very hot in the room, and one cannot survive with an open window, as the place is *extremely* noisy. The room sound isolation by itself was poor. The room description on the booking.com says that the Premium room has tea making facilities - there were not any. The hotel's restaurant did not have hotel wi-fi coverage. The electric sockets are quite old with covers easily going off, which makes them dangerous to use. The tv was a real disappointment - a modern TV-set, but a poor choice of channels and absolutely poor quality analog signal. Internet was constantly asking to renew a session, which is annoying. We had difficulties upon arrival to access the parking and the hotel itself, as the entrance was occupied by a crowd waiting for some celebrity. Our room key was incorrectly programmed, so we could not enter the room the first time. The last day we managed to stuck in the hotel elevator. Overall, the hotel is certainly overpriced for the level of service.

The location is excellent. Close to the airport, has a metro station in front of the hotel. Has free internet. The worst part was the room. It was not clean at all. I found an empty condom box in the room. One of the water bottles in the room was already opened and was not replaced. A lot of hair in the bathtube. I would not expect such a service from a 4 starts hotel.

The view out onto the Pl. Espanyal was amazing. The hotel is located right next to a Metro stop. It is also located next to the new shopping mall with many good food options. The mattress was like sleeping on a board. There was no control over the room temperature. We were told that it is either hot or cold. And it was very hot. There is a lot of road noise from the traffic circle out front throughout the night. We left the window open due to the heat. Good thing we had ear plugs.

The hotel was convenient to the Montjuic Fountain and close to Fira Gran Via for the tradeshow. Easy to get around via the metro which is right in front of the hotel. Unfortunately the internet in the room was not too good as wifi is unstable and not great for business hotel use and had to use wifi at the lobby at very odd hours due to time difference.

The hotel was within easy reach of the train station and the Metro as well as being within walking distance of many attractions. In addition it was close to many fine restaurants. Nothing except the excessive price

We were meant to be on a trafalgar tour which finished here, but that tour was cancelled and the trip we did go on finished in London. Our return flights were booked from Barcelona and because we wanted to see Barcelona, we decided to book this hotel anyway. All of the Trafalgar Hotels we stayed in were just wonderful and this one did not disappoint. Location is the big thing, being here for a short stay, we didn't want to waste time travelling to and fro. The room was spacious and very comfortable. We used the mini bar as well and were delighted with the prices. - very unusual!! Breakfast was a wonderful spread as well. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. Nothing

Lovely big suite. Great views. Right on Plaza Espana. Attention to small repairs was lacking. Little things such as inoperative shower head (there were 4); chipped wood; no plug in one of the sinks; loose towel holder. Nothing big but it decreases the overall luxury of the place.

“while this isn't a 'designer boutique' style hotel- everything is comfortable, huge scale- including the beds- and the staff are very attentive. there is no feeling that their other business- conferences/ meetings/ parties impinges in any way on the hotel experience of guests. The indoor pool was a bonus in a winter visit. Chosen because of it's proximity to the Palau Nacional / MNAC. enabling us to spend hours with the Romanesque collection.” D, London |
