The reservation was managed by booking.com, where the staff replied fairly quickly to all questions. There was the check-in online before arrival option, which was made available on the previous Axel we've been to, but we didn't get to complete it this time. Still, the check-in upon arrival was easy and quick. The hotel is astonishing! The decoration is phenomenal! The room was very peculiar, especially the glassed bathroom and the common balcony with other rooms. The bed was very comfy, there were power sockets just next to the head of the bed. The swimming pool on the rooftop had warm water, but we enjoyed mostly the spa for just 15 euros/hour. They had massage therapy, but i didn't have the chance to try it out. The rooftop bar was amazing, and the staff was incredible! The Gym has tons of equipment! The cleaning staff is very efficient. I will definitely consider staying here again if Barcelona comes to mind for a short city break!

Staff were brilliant, super friendly and helpful. Having a spa and gym on site was an extra bonus. Just being surrounded by queer joy amd knowing that as a 'heterofriendly' establishment the emphasis is on this being a super safe gay space. Great neighbourhood too, i know Barcelona quite well but never been to this neighbourhood before. I will be returning!

It was my first time in Barcelona and i had a connecting flight to somewhere else within the hour actually. But the weather there tempted me to stay. Then i checked what hotels are there in the area i would like to explore and this hotel apparently was the best according the some websites. Indeed, i loved my stay. The rooftop bar was nice and cozy, spa area was great although comes at an extra price. Definetely would come again.

This is such an attractive, thoughtful designed hotel in a great location to explore the city.

great check in by Roberto which was very friendly and made me feeling welcome. I was even lucky enough to receive an upgrade! thanks Roberto!

The staff was friendly and welcoming - we felt very homely during our stay! Perfect location in the city, many good restaurants and bars near by!

very welcoming staff, excellent location, and a very nice room

really friendly staff, clean and the location was perfect for us.

The room is big enough for Barcelona, you can find much smaller in hotels for the same price. Still you should know, it's not really huge. I found enough power sockets for my devices. Everything is clean and the staff is really nice. It's a very popular and cozy gay-bar at the roof, so if you're gay - the hotel is your choice.

Great location, comfy room, very clean, good facilities in general (though did not get to use all of them). Staff there friendly and helpful, especially Bel who assisted me with an airport transfer.
