Loved it. We had a balcony room. What a treat. Overlooking Las ramblas. Staff wonderful. The all inclusive available 24 hours excellent. And the courtyard was a lovely retreat. We did 3 nights. Centrally located for everything we needed. Would definitely return.. .

Great Location, great staff. I wanted to make sure that I wrote this review, as I couldn't sign the guest book before we left. We stayed at the hotel as a pre-cruise hotel. We were in Barcelona about 2 days before the cruise. The hotel had a great location, dead center of La Rambla, within short walking distance to everything, shopping, pharmacies, clothing stores, bars, restaurants, everything. We chose to use taxis when we had to go further out. When we were there the street was closed due to construction. That was a bummer when you had to hike with your luggage to other streets or to the taxi stand, but some things can't be helped. I have to give a special shout-out to Vivian (in my Richard Gere voice from Pretty Woman) she was a jewel. Vivian helped us with everything from giving us the correct room, recommendations for the area, explaining all of our options with the hotel, and just her pure grace of her welcoming ways when we went past the front desk for food at the buffet or when we were returning from an outing to get our key. You had to give your key to the front desk when entering or leaving, I didn't mind that at all, better than losing the key. It kept everyone safe and no strangers at the property. The rooms were clean, they didn't have washcloths (face cloths), haven't been in a foreign country in a while, we know for next time. Otherwise, we were in updated rooms, so everything was good, the beds were comfortable, more than enough closet space, our first room had a microwave, but the second one did not. We were ok, as if needed there was a microwave in the buffet area. Also a TV in our room, I don't think there were any American channels, but by the time we came back to our dwellings we passed out anyway. We hung out on the balcony for a bit, people-watched, and then fell asleep. The food provided at the 24-hour buffet was great, a little bit of everything, and just enough. If the food wasn't hot enough they had a microwave. Everything was fresh, no flies or anything, clean. Enjoyed the extras with the ice cream and wine. I believe they had beer also (we did not partake, but it was available). I will stay at this hotel again if I am in this area of Barcelona.. .

Enjoyed my stay thought the staff was wonderful very helpful and considerate. Many years ago I stayed at your hotel and was so impressed with it. I have been telling everyone that goes to Barcelona that the hotel is situated in an excellent position for train walking and anything you need to do in Barcelona that the hotel is clean. staff is always pleasant and helpful. I have to admit I stayed in a five star hotel in Edinburgh and your towels were much softer. Couldn’t ask for anything better.. Maybe at lunchtime could have had a little more variety maybe cold cuts and cheeses..

Very poor value for money. The location. The rude staff, the lack of air conditioning, the limited choice at breakfast.

Exceptional. Our property was close and convenient to everything we needed. The only thing there is one small elevator, but they do help you with the luggages. This hotel will be a challenge with those who have mobility problem.. .

An excellent and quirky hotel very well situated.. Good food, good beer, good wine and all free! Very welcoming and helpful staff.. All the roadworks outside in Las Ramblas.
