Good,
Score from 114 reviews
Surrounded by the fascinating streets of the Gothic Quarter, this elegant hotel is located right at Barcelona’s historic heart – just a short walk from the cathedral and Las Ramblas. The Gran Hotel Barcino is set in a street which runs off the magnificent square of Sant Jaume, home to both the Catalonian government and the city council. The narrow streets which surround the hotel are full of fashionable shops, historic sites and museums, such as the Picasso Museum. The hotel’s spacious, first-floor lounge looks out over the bustling street outside; you can start your day with the tasty buffet breakfast selection served there, and enjoy drinks and snacks throughout the day. See the city’s many sights then return for a good night’s sleep in your traditional-style room. Here, cooling marble floors, air conditioning and soundproofing combine to ensure a restful night in the center of Barcelona. Hotel Rooms: 68, Hotel Chain: Grupo Gargallo. Most recent booking for this hotel was yesterday at 13:25 from Finland.

Perfect location Barrio Gotico, nice and friendly stuff, room and bathroom big enough and clean No WIFI and internet available!, dark room with small windows, old bed was making noise, everyday the same breakfast - could be better, no possibility to make tea in the room. Level of hotel is 3 and not 4 stars.

Location . It was perfect located in getting to a lot of things . Rambla street , rambla market , piaza catalunya , stop of bus from airport , start of city bus tour , shopping , restaurants near ( I might ad also a lot of good ones ) If it is in the transit period in 12-18 dgrs external do not expect to get heat in the room . Also a part of the personel ( 1 men exception ) is not prepared for having customers which demand 4 stars as they write on the internet page of booking . It is not a 4 star hotel - no bar , minibar empty , toilet an important item missing, etc . It is a fine hotel to stay , do not expect much from breakfast , i woul not rate it 4 stars maybe a 3+ . I would rate the hotel at a four star level with a 6-6,4

Good situation and the rest I have already answered by ticking the boxs. We did have a problem with the lift as it was out of action a few times and we were on the 3rd floor, suffering from siatica I found it a great problem getting up the stairs.

Great location but so noisy we couldn't sleep despite the hotel claiming to have good double-glazing and our own ear-plugs! Breakfast was a very good continental style and fresh, tasty food. Noise levels very very bad. Need to consider proper sound-proofing. No English televisions whatsoever! This was the first hotel I have stayed in for at least 15 years that doesn't offer some kind of satelite/cable television, at least a news channel in some language other than their own. Poor!

We enjoyed the central proximity to the old town, and the spacious lobby. The windows to a busy street were not helpful in blocking out traffic noise, and probably dust. No internet, no international tv channels.

Location and the staff were very good. This is not a 4 star in any way. The building is old, the bed's mattresses pierce your body the whole night, the fixtures are broken, the TV in the room is centuries old and only 3-4 channels are aired; all in spanish. The breakfast was Ok, nothing 4 star about it. It lacked a very basic facility of tea/coffee making facility in the room. Tea/Coffee had to be purchased from the wending machine kept near the reception. This was the costliest hotel out of my 4 hotels that I stayed in France and Spain and was the worst in terms of facilities and services! i would not go there again. There are many more hotels in that location, which I would prefer to go to.

The central location was brilliant and staff very helpful. The only problems we found with the hotel was we requested a double bed and got two singles pushed together as did a couple of other rooms by the sounds. With no carpet the beds that were a double but werent would slide across the floor upon movement. This could be heard happening from other rooms which could wake you up during the night a possible answer to this could be to insert rubber stoppers under the bed legs.

L'Hotel non corrisponde agli standard di un quattro stelle. Il frigobar era vuoto e non è mai stato riempito in una settimana. Il personale è inaffidabile e scortese. La colazione era pessima. Dietro espressa richiesta, il direttore ci ha assicurato che potevamo decidere di non consumare la colazione e,quindi, di non pagarne il costo. Ciò nonostante, il costo delle colazioni (16 euro a testa) ci è stato addebitato sulla carta di credito e a nulla sono valse le nostre proteste.Tra l'altro, sebbene richiesta in anticipo, la fattura ci è stata consegnata cinque minuti prima della partenza, probabilmente per evitare contestazioni. Nell'albergo non c'è un internet point, nè un bar, nè un'area comune dove poter vedere la televisione.Nelle camere, venivano trasmessi solo programmi spagnoli. Avevamo chiesto la prenotazione di un taxi per raggiungere l'areoporto di prima mattina. La prenotazione non è stata effettuata.

El hotel Barcino ha sido uno de los peores donde me he alojado en España, a pesar de ser un cuatro estrella. El portero de noche no encontraba nuestra reserva y maleducadamente nos dijo de irnos a otro hotel. Afortunadamente teníamos el correo de booking y solo al cabo de media hora discutiendo nos dio una habitación diminuta sin ventana y con una sola cama de una plaza (éramos dos chicas). Nos quejamos y de mala forma nos cambio de habitación. Esta tenía las sabanas y las fundas de las almohadas llenas de pelos pero ya no hubo nada que hacer y nos tuvimos de conformar con ella. En general el hotel esta muy viejo y hasta huele mal. Desde luego no merece los 90 euros.

Die Lage ist sowohl zum Shoppen, Sightseeing als auch zum Ausgehen sehr gut. Die Zimmer sind abgewohnt. Flecken an den Wänden und der Decke. Die Betten habe sehr unangenehme Gummiauflagen. Das Personal ist teilweise sehr unfreundlich und unwillig

La situació era excel·lent, al centre de barcelona. Les habitacions no estaven a l'alçada d'un hotel d'aquesta categoria, hi havia una paret en que el guix estava completament esquerdat I queia a trossos. I les habitacions no estaven insonoritzades I a la nit es sentia molt soroll del carrer.

Lo unico bueno es su buena hubicacion, cerca de la playa( 1km), zona de fiesta (1,3km), y les rambles (300m). Cuando llegue por la noche, no tenian mi reserva y me quisieron hechar indirectamente, diciendo que no la tenian y que me tendria que irme a otro hotel, despues de media hora, y haberle enviado la copia de la reserva al hotel, me dio la habitacion y con dificultades. encima sin ventanas, era como una cueva. si no me cambie de hotel fue por vagancia. Pero lo peor de todo es el ruido que hay apartir de las 7 de la mañana, para la gente no madrugadora, molesta mucho. Y el desayuno no es muy variado. Conclusion del viaje: "no volvere a este hotel"

La ubicación es estupenda. A 1 cuadra está la estación de metro. Encuentras lugares para comer para todos los gustos y presupuestos. A pie puedes recorrer muchos lugares turísticos ya que es una zona muy segura. El ruido del ascensor se percibe en la habitación lo cuál es un poco incómodo
