United KingdomAmazing staff! Extremely professional, courteous and extremely helpful! I was help with useful advice and also I forgot pendants in my room and they were found and mailed to me super swiftly! Particular thanks to Daniel, who was extremely efficient on every occasion.

FranceStaff very nice and professional. Location is really good
ItalyGreat location in Eixample, 3 minutes walk from placa Catalunia
NetherlandsFantastic and very helpful Staff. Specifically at the Reception. Great location with a Taxi stand just outside the hotel. Breakfast was tasty and rich and above my expectations considering the on-going Pandamic. Great Roof-top !
SwitzerlandThe location is perfect, right in the centre of the gay neighbourhood Eixample in Barcelona, surrounded by gay bars and walking distance to las ramblas and nice restaurants. The staff was very friendly, they put my bags in my room and upgraded my room, I thought that touch was very nice. The room was beautifully spacious with a great view.
United KingdomI loved staying in Axel Aribau. The highlight was not only the rooms, cleanliness and the vibe, but also the customer service and attention to guests. In particular I would like to mention Marc Sancho, the Hotel Manager, who was outstanding in always caring for everything I needed without any problem. For frequent travellers, it is a pleasure meeting people like this. Absolutely outstanding stay and I will repeat.
United KingdomAmazing hotel. The staff are attentive and helpful. I was allowed to check out 2.5 hours after check-in. The hotel room was beautiful with a great shower, comfortable bed and nice balcony. The breakfast was tasty. I would definitely stay again.
SpainI was well met at the reception. Had a little bit trouble with the reservation but not their fault because the Covid resrtrictions Missunderstanding about the info but they were so understanding and helpful and made my stay here exceptional. Which made me want to stay here an extra night. I highly recommend this place! I work within service/hospitality and the people/staff here are well service-minded! Anja Snare
