Lock in a great price for Circa 1905 – rated 9.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

The staff were lovely and exceptionally accommodating. The building and rooms were stunning, tastefully decorated and very comfortable.

Kevin, United Kingdom

The staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful. We had a long wait to collect are bags at the airport and subsequently missed our dinner reservation. The staff at Circa were so obliging, they sorted us out with a lovely bottle of red wine on our terrace. They then recommend a restaurant who could deliver some food and brought it up to the room for us, once it was delivered, to also enjoy on the terrace.

Daniel, United Kingdom

Perfect location in a great neighborhood. Only a few meters away from La Pedrera and Passeig de Gracia. It's wonderful to walk around the area on a summer day - quiet and yet close to some shopping and cafes. Lovely old world atmosphere - you feel like you're in someone's apartment from a bygone time. Simple but good breakfast to start the day, which you can take to your room and enjoy on the balcony.

Fantastic location, beautiful room, loved the decoration and furniture. Clean and well equipped. Modern bathroom with powerful shower. Lovely little touches, such as L'Occitane products in the bathroom which smelled amazing. Delicious breakfast! Access to coffees, tea, cold bottled water and cake all day at your own convenience. Free wi-fi. Helpful staff. A perfect stay, couldn't have been any better. Thank you, we had a wonderful time.

Sophie, United Kingdom

The hotel was traditionally spanish. The breakfast was delicious with very fresh croissants, bread, fruit, cheeses, ham and lots more and there was tea, coffee and water available 24 hours. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Diane, United Kingdom

The facility is upscale and all are well arranged. I lost my wallet (all credit cards and cash) to a pickpocket in the Barcelona Metro -- this is the capital of pickpockets. The staff members were very helpful--they advanced some small cash against my deposit, and were very patient while I arranged a special payment of the balance with the cancelled credit card on the phone with my credit card company.

Seung-chan, United States of America

very good location, easy to find, next to famous landmark.

Zhixiang, Belgium

The staff are all very helpful and speak English. The actual property is full of character and charm combined with it's excellent location it represents very good value for money. Breakfast is provided and is also very good.

Natale, Australia

Able to make tea and coffee all day long. So relaxing. Wonderful stay

Rosemary, Australia

The two best aspects of Circa 1905 were its location - we walked EVERYWHERE - and its residential charm. The hotel reminded us of the apartment we lived in during our time in Germany - high ceilings with gorgeous trim, old fireplaces, tile floors, architectural details everywhere. Returning to Circa 1905 every night was like coming home to a charming Barcelona apartment.

눉We were travelling with a small child and quite some luggage, and since the hotel is on the first floor of a residential building, we needed to get the bags up a small flight of stairs to reach the elevator.

It's wonderful to walk around the area on a summer day - quiet and yet close to some shopping and cafes. Lovely old world atmosphere - you feel like you're in someone's apartment from a bygone time.

“A charming hotel in a perfect location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double or Twin Room with Balcony
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Circa 1905 was about as close to perfect as one can get for a boutique hotel. After reflecting for a few minutes, the ONLY thing I can think of that could have been nicer would be to have conditioner in the bathroom. There was shampoo, shower gel and lotion, but no conditioner. When that's the only thing that can be improved in a hotel, it's a good sign. We loved Circa 1905 and will absolutely stay there again if we return to Barcelona.
눇The two best aspects of Circa 1905 were its location - we walked EVERYWHERE - and its residential charm. The hotel reminded us of the apartment we lived in during our time in Germany - high ceilings with gorgeous trim, old fireplaces, tile floors, architectural details everywhere.
