to get started.

Hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the location of the hotel is fantastic with a metro station across the road, and great restaurants nearby. Hotel has real charm and history which make the stay more special for those interested in history and architecture.

Friendly staff set the stage for an amazing and comfortable stay at this wonderfully located hotel. Apart from its own history, it boasts a fantastic location, close to every amenity one can imagine! Lovely breakfast with great vegetarian and vegan options available! A truly convenient way to see Barcelona, particularly within a limited time frame. I will definitely be returning to El Avenida!

Location is great. Bathrooms are renewed and ok. Towels are clean. Thanks to administration, they cared to change our room with a larger corner one upon our request. First two nights were not nice in a tight room with a baby. (I think smaller than it is seen on booking)

“Old world hotel with great service”
- • Leisure trip

The room itself had quite old-fashioned decor & quite a "dark" feel about it; the WiFi is a public network & I struggled with connection at times.
The location was incredible; facilities of the hotel have a grand / old world feel. The heated outdoor pool on the rooftop has an incredible view over Barcelona! The staff were very attentive and accommodating. The bathroom was very large and modern - looked recently re-done.

“Wonderful character filled hotel in the heart of Barcelona”
- • Leisure trip

The rooms are a little dated, and facilities are not very modern. However, this is a character hotel and it is not newly renovated so it is expected. Breakfasts were generally very good, I would only suggest that the hotel invest in a good coffee machine and barista, as the coffee available is not good.
