Ramblas Hotel

the location next to many metro stations, close to the beach (10-15 minutes walk)

one of the elevators was broken for more than three days, the morning staff (recipetion) were not very friendly. the breakfast has little varity.

Very central position, good quality/price ratio for the position

The staff was wonderful. Especially the front desk. Whenever we left there, they asked us where we were going & gave us helpful ideas. They were so helpful in every other way we needed. The ability to store your luggage-free-until you fly out or catch a late evening cruise, was a great benefit. We would highly recommend it.

staff friendly

you could leave your luggage but no ticket system so in effect anyone could walk off with your luggage

Our first trip to barcelona we stayed in an apartment at Diagonal Mar. Being in the city at the Ramblas gave us much better access.

The toilet made a horrible sound, water ran continuously in toilet, not worth a complaint, just slightly annoying. I thought it was construction

The staff were very helpful and courteous. The room on the 9th floor was large.

The basin in the bathroom was cracked, couple of lights were not working and the mini fridge also was not working.

Excellently located for enjoing the Ramblas.

I felt that it could do with brightening up especially within the dining rooms.

Location

Noissy

The location is great. Right in the middle of Las Ramblas. I had a great view on the boulevard as well as domes of Gothic quarter and Sagrada Familia on the far left. The rooms are really huge (as well as bathrooms). Looks more like a flat than a hotel room. There were all kind of stuff in the bathroom including toothpaste and toothbrushes and shaving lotions and shampoos and god only knows what else. The breakfast was quite good.

The guy on reception couldn`t find my booking. He told me that the hotel was full and there`s no chance I booked the room for tonight. So I had to go to the internet cafe and find my booking number to give it to him. When I returned there was no one on reception so I had to wait good 15min to get the room at last.

Great location

Fridge not working. Being able to hear next door shower and taps being switched on. Damp on bedroom ceiling. We had to pay 1 euro for ice. This should of been free especially if the fridge was not working.

Location was excellent, right in front of Ramblas, with subway 2 blocks away, close to many atractions.

Rooms were dark, damp, smelly and made us sneeze from the moment we checked in. Beds were wobbly, mattresses were hard, pillows were the lowest quality possible. The staff at the hotel emptied our fridge before our check-out and our food and drinks "were put to the bin". Nobody took responsability and no apologies were given.

the location of the hotel was great.

didnt like the fact that breakfast was included and that we did not have the option to just book the room without the breakfast. the lift is extreemly old, noisy, and slow. in fact it was not functional on a particular day. most of the front desk officers were quite nice however the employee assigned to this position when we checked out was extreemly rude. i understand she had a lot of pressure and might have been a bit stressed out, but there's a way and a way to deal with customers ... especially upon check out. when we first got to the room, it stank of dirty feet / socks and we were basically disgusted. we had to open the window and let some fresh air come in. one last thing ... the hotel does not offer an iron to its customers on request. we were told that it is not done in spain. ive just visited madrid last april and they had one on request!!! anyways, ramblas hotel wanted to charge 3 euros per piece for the ironing. i had to buy a small iron myself instead.
