    Pleasant, clean, value for money – all in the heart of Barcelona!

    The positives beat these negatives, but its fair to mention them nevertheless 1) It could get slightly noisy at night because the hotel is located in the heart of the city, next to a busy road 2) If you reach or leave Barcelona several hours apart from the check-in or check-out time, there is no storage space at the hotel to store your luggage pre check-in or post check-out. However, the hotel has tie-ups with luggage storage companies so this is manageable 3) No breakfast options or coffee machine :( However, there is a mini fridge in each room to store food if you prefer

    The best parts about our stay at the Som Nit Born were 1) Proximity to the city center and the metro station. The hotel is located in the heart of Barcelona's old town and is a 3 min walk from the nearest metro station. Everything is so accessible! 2) Clean, well-lit rooms with typical European style balcony – makes the stay very comfortable and cosy 3) Very friendly and welcoming staff – The person at the reception, Adina, was very hospitable. Our flight landed in Barcelona earrly morning and check-in wasn't until 3 pm. She was in touch with us through out this duration and let us know as soon as our room was ready for an early check-in. 4) Feeling of safety – we were two girls travelling and entire experience was superb not only within the hotel but also in the adjoining area of the hotel

    A kettle in the room.

    Location is GREAT! The room is the one I normally stay in. It has a nice little Juliet balcony facing a relatively quiet street (we are in Barcelona after all!). Bed is nice and not too soft which is great for my back.

    It was the weekend of carnaval, you could hear every noise from outside. The other nights were okay. Despite the sleepless night we loved our stay. In the room was missing a bigger bin. And I would have loved a watercooker, but I knew from the description that it wouldn’t be here. So no problem.

    Small but comfortable room ideal located between Barceloneta and the old centre. Very near metro. We were here for the Mitja Marathon. Ideal location for the start of the marathon. Great shower and view from the balcony. Perfect that there is a refrigerator. We loved our host Adina. Reception is open all day.

    The beds were very short. If you are a tall person, your feet are basically outside of the bed. The window was facing the shaft. This is not such a big deal but should be pointed out. During booking, there were only displayed rooms with actual windows.

    Cozy small hotel in an excellent location, right next to the harbor in the Gothic quarter. The room was clean and had a spacious shower and mini fridge. The staff was very friendly, and even when they didn't have 24/7 reception, they solved our late arrival smoothly.

    First room was very small, basically just 2 single beds with bathroom. Second room was larger with a little balcony. If there were some basic amenities such as tissues, cups, wine glasses and coffee, tea making facilities it would of been so much better. Shower head in the second bathroom was not working properly at all.

    host was absolutely awesome. She was so helpful and friendly on both occasions we stayed there . She couldnt of been more welcoming. She answered all our questions and gave us lots of helpful ideas, where to go , where to eat etc.

    I would get a different view as my room window faced a brick wall and also in the bathroom there were a few head hairs in the shower that I noticed.

    Great place tucked away just on the edge of the gothic quarter. Special thanks to Adina on reception who is one of the loveliest, warmest people I have ever met. We had a really nice chat about attractions to see and things to do in Barcelona, where she gave me her own top tips on transport and places to visit. I did also lose my key card and the hotel, and Adina, were very amiable about this and issued me a new one without fuss, which I am grateful for. The hotel is in an excellent location and surrounded by many bars and restaurants as well as good transport links (Barcelonetta tube station is only a 3 minute walk away). I had a late check-in which meant I initially picked up my keycard from another hotel (2 minutes away) and the process was very easy and quick, again without fuss. My room was small but cosy and I liked the fact that I could control the thermostat.

    The room was completely dark, not a single spot of natural light during the whole day. The reception is not open 24hr, so one of the nights a drunk guest rang the bell for 30’ at 6 am. The staff was super sorry, but they should find a solution to avoid this kind of inconvenience.

    Perfect location, helpful and kind staff. Room clean and spacious.

    No natural light to the bedroom and the entrance foyer was not very inviting. It was shared with residential properties.

    The room was of a much higher specification than I was expecting. The property was very centrally located yet quiet

    Sound travels through the corridors and you can hear voices and footsteps clearly. The entry system was not obvious- the access panel showed no key design, so in the dark, it wasn’t obvious where to place the key card to enter.

    The building has character and the hotel conversion was nicely done. Staff were friendly. My late check-in was nicely handled via a neighbouring hotel. Close to the train station.

    Toilet door is glass and you literally hear everything thorough. No hooks to hang a jacket/purse. No shelves in bathroom to put your toilet bag. All rooms are one floor up from a busy street; street noice all day long. Sun shine for the balcony only before noon.

    Really kind and helpfull staff. Several restaurants just steps from the door. Beds and pillows are good. Modern and clean.
