We stopped in Barcelona on our way to get married in Sitges. The Axel was the perfect location to meet up with our family and friends, and our room was amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Everyone in our group had a great experience, which is saying something because our group was spread out into quite a few rooms. We cannot wait to go back for a longer visit!

United States of AmericaRoom was great and clean, roof was nice, bar was fun
United States of AmericaI like the location and it's comforting for me since I am a returning guest. I'd stay here last 2019 with my late husband. I will never forget how friendly the staff and the free amenities this hotel offered us. I will still recommend this hotel for all kinds of gender. The Sky Bar experience with good Dj's and the best tasted cocktail must experience in this hotel. I gained a lot of friends after this trip, very nice people. Thank you Axel Hotel for another awesome time in Barcelona.
