The bed was huge, and the whole experience at the hotel was very relaxing. We didn’t have a chance to participate in one of the workshops, but we really liked the hotel’s natural vibes. The staff was also really friendly and helpful!

This hotel is amazing and provided great service! The two reception employees (both named Claudia) were great and very helpful. The room was absolutely amazing, huge and spotless. We really enjoyed the personalized bathroom amenities (they get you to smell 3 scents when you check-in, whichever of the 3 you like is the scent of shampoo, lotion etc. box set they give you for your room.

the hotel is small yet beautiful. Reception goes above and beyond to make sure their guests are happy, always with a smile on their face. Having a room overseeing the Passeig de Gracia decorated with holiday lights is something we will never forget

“Pleasant stay in the heart of Barcelona!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
For my second stay, I was a little disappointed with the cleanliness. It was obvious that cleaner has used the same cleaning cloth to wipe all surfaces, i.e the shower area, the toilet seat and the door frames of the bathroom or shower glass panel and possibly all other surfaces. ...I found hair pieces on toilet seat, on door frame of the bathroom, it was unpleasant especially knowing that those were not mine! Could see that the floor was not properly vacuumed as I also discovered hair on the floor. And hotel should consider installing more than one hook in the bathroom to hang the towels to avoid changing towels on daily basis unless necessary. Room could get a little warm in the middle of the night even though I did not switch on heating.
Location is great, in proximity to Casa Batlo, Passeig de Gracia, Plaza Catalunya, Las Ramblas, etc. Staff always friendly and helpful and they even added complimentary happy hours for clients of the hotel to enjoy at its lounge. Room is of good size with very comfortable bed and good shower.

This is a lovely little boutique hotel in a perfect location just off Passeig de Gracia. It's got bags of personality and the people at the fornt desk are very friendly and helpful. They make the most of limited space within the property. They offer free refreshments in a very nice communal area and terrace from 6 - 8 pm. Would highly recommend for a short trip to Barcelona.

Small niggles, since the place was great - the showerhead was really silted up from the hard water. I'd have liked access to filtered (not bottled) water since the water in Barcelona is so chalky it makes London's look soft. Also, the towels were replaced at one point even though we had specifically hung them up.
Location was perfect, really close to a central metro hub and in a vibrant part of the city. The hotel is great and the amenities are fantastic - it really opened my eyes to what can be offered and still fall under the 2* rating! Coffee machines in the room, every day there was a small offering of muffins or similar in the lovely lounge area. There was even a pillow menu, which I LOVED. Rooms were quiet, aircon wasn't intrusive. All in all, a good stay.

Having to come home.
Very comfy beds, sound proofing is fantastic, nearby restaurants good value and excellent service. Staff friendly. Shower is brilliant - especially for couples ; ) Close to La Ramblas. I would definitely return here if I ever go back to Barcelona and highly recommend it. TV has two English speaking channels - Bloomberg and CNBC, but I didn't come here to watch TV but thought I'd let you know. Also its location is approx 3/5 mins from the metro Passaig De Gracias R2 from the airport costing 4.50 euros and takes half an hour.

Only small suggestion would be the possibility of some English channels on TV but for the time spent in the room nothing major. Possibly a kettle/fridge in rooms for formula bottles.
Location was excellent, so easy for us travelling with a 6 month old for the first time. Everything is within easy distance with good transport nearby. Staff were very friendly and accommodating for any needs. Love the hotel concept. Would stay again!
