    It was tired in places, breakfast was very limited. Two rooms are next to the lounge room by reception. One guest complained about the noise so the staff blocked off the lounge room. I really don’t think all guests should be blocked from the lounge because of one guest.

    Location was great, right in the middle of everything

    Amazing hotel right on the main strip in Barcelona providing a peaceful haven to return to after a long day sightseeing. A good breakfast was provided and snacks and drinks including wine, beer, tea and coffee were available 24/7. Staff were really helpful, especially Vivienne

    There were no toiletries and bottled water, which is a basic requirement for the price. The pictures can be misleading as not all rooms face the street.

    Location is amazing. Staff helpful.

    We did not like the sound of running water intermittently during the night, which seemed to be emanating from the floor above which was not part of the hotel.

    The room was very comfortable, especially the bed. The location, at the top of La Rambla, was perfect. The breakfast was very good 'Continental'. An all-day buffet was available free of charge.

    Very disappointed in breakfast selection, nothing we would really eat. Some quests leaving let their room doors slam more than once at 6am in the morning waking us up.

    You have food 24hr, but they need to put more varieties becasue they have the same every day. There was a homeless outside the hotel sleeping , and everybody can access to the building, but the have camera and security.

    The location is excellent, you can take bus or taxi just stepping out the hotel or walk to las ramblas, gothic quarter, etc. It is close to everything.

    I feel like the decor needs updating as for a hotel in a hot country to have carpets and wallpaper, its very warm even if you use ac.

    The location of the hotel was great . Walk straight out and there's lots of shops and restaurants. Walking distance to a cathedral and 30 minutes walk to the beach.

    COMPLETELY HIDDEN AUTHORIZATION FEE (temporary)
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Comfort Double or Twin Room
    • Stayed 3 nights
    • Submitted from a mobile device

    COMPLETELY HIDDEN AUTHORIZATION FEE which was temporary hold from your account until you check out. NEITHER HOTEL NOR BOOKING.COM UPFRONT & HONEST ABOUT THIS TEMPORARY CHARGE. Anyone chose to pay at the property make sure you have enough money to pay the full price even if they have already hold one night worth amount from your card weeks before. Wouldn't be an issue if they HONEST & UPFRONT about it BUT NO! big disappointment!! Also it took exactly a week the founds to be released back to my account. WHAT A DRAMA TO DEAL AFTER A HOLIDAY!! Rooms & corridors were bit out-dated and not properly ventilated. Access to the rooms only via old elevator or old tiny stair case.

    Location is absolutely perfect. Easy access to the public transport, shops and restaurants. The 24hrs snacks buffet and morning breakfast buffet are worth for someone who enjoys food. Good coffee too. Keep in mind it's very basic but couldn't expect more or less for the price. Staff were professional, friendly, approachable and helpful. Whole place was clean and tidy. Also we had the room service everyday. Our room's heating stop working on second day but they gave us a another cleaned room. Big thanks to the staff. Definitely worth the price we paid except one major failure from their management.

    The room temp was too warm and we could not control it with AC. Needed to get desk to adjust and it took some time to moderate. We used overhead fan however it was very noisy therefore one night was tough on sleep.

    Breakfast was weak but I suppose for a continental it was adequate. Very little variety over the 4 days.

    a very charming boutique hotel in the heart of the action in Barcelona

    the access from the street. We look the elevators up (obviously with luggage) but took the stairs down and felt the hallways were relatively dark and could use a good coat of light coloured paint.

    location is terrific; lovely boutique hotel that gave us a feeling of Barcelona culture; food at breakfast was fresh and a good variety for a continental breakfast; staff was friendly and helpful; the eating area allowed guests to chat with each other easily; we'd recommend this hotel to others - obviously it is popular as you seemed to have a lot of repeat guests.

    Hotel Barcelona An older but adequate hotel on Las Rambla in the heart of Barcelona. We enjoyed our stay. 1. Just a 3 minute walk down Las Rambla from the airport bus stop on La Plaça de Catalunya. The street entrance from busy Las Rambla is not very attractive but I think that may be intentional to reduce random pedestrians visits. 2. An elevator lifts you to the small lobby and public space which includes the breakfast bar and dining area overlooking Las Rambla. The breakfast bar has many choices and includes some lunch choices as well. They provided gluten free rolls and bread for me. The frozen yogurt machine was a nice surprise. 3. We are experienced travelers- not fussy people. The rooms, baths, and hallways are older but well maintained. We found the room comfortable and quiet. 4. The staff was very nice and helpful.

    The elevator is very small and during check out you have to wait for awhile to be able to fit with all the luggage. There should be a sign saying which floor checkin is located. A little confusing to find the checkin.

    Location was wonderful. Food all day long was good. Wine and beer included was an unexpected surprise. Would stay there again!
