Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room, overlooking the park, was very small, more suitable for business stays than leisure. It was a bit dark and gloomy, not the best way to start the day. However, the staff was absolutely brilliant, extremely helpful, and polite, especially considering we arrived in the middle of the night. The location was good, near a metro station connecting us to everything, but unfortunately, there was no breakfast service during my visit.
The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms with comfortable beds and a fantastic location for exploring. However, the heating was inadequate during cold weather. The staff were friendly and helpful, although there were small oversights in room amenities. The hotel's convenient location near transport links and various attractions was a definite plus, but noise levels in the area could be disruptive.
My stay at the hotel was good overall. The rooms were not soundproof, which made it a bit noisy due to neighboring guests partying, but the external isolation was decent. The staff was not always very smiley, and there were noises during the night, possibly from thin walls, but on other occasions, they were beyond friendly and warm. The location was great as it was near various attractions and amenities, though there were minor inconveniences with the facilities and dining options.
I had a cozy and clean room with a big layout and comfortable beds at the hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly, especially with recommendations for places to visit in Barcelona. The location was fantastic, with everything I needed nearby, including transport links. The dining experience was what I expected, with a good choice of local foods, although it could have been tastier. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were in a bad state and nothing like the pictures, but they were quite spacious. The service was a bit of a hit and miss with helpful staff but poor English understanding. The location wasn't as excellent as expected, but it was convenient for sightseeing. The dining options were adequate but not fantastic. Overall, a stay with some highs and lows.
The hotel offers lovely and comfortable rooms, but they could use some updates. The service was friendly but had a few hiccups, and the location was great for exploring the city. The dining options were satisfactory, and the facilities were decent overall.
The hotel's rooms were disappointingly less than basic, small compared to pictures, and the pool area didn't match the advertised images. It was quite expensive for what was offered, and there were no apparent breakfast options available. The majority of the staff lacked friendliness, making the experience less welcoming. A downside was the noise from partying neighboring rooms late into the night.
The hotel has a central location with good access to the city center and key places like Montjuic and FIRA. The rooms were slightly warm with street noise, but they were clean. The service was a mix; some staff were friendly, but others seemed unwelcoming. The dining options were varied, though lacking in-room facilities for tea and coffee. The hotel could use some upgrades overall.
The hotel had clean and quite comfortable rooms, but they felt outdated and had a lingering smell of cigarettes, making my final night uncomfortable and not ideal for a baby. Nonetheless, the staff were welcoming and friendly, especially the young man at the checkout. The location, while a bit far from the center, was convenient with easy access to public transportation. The dining experience was okay but could be improved with more options. Overall, a mixed experience with both positives and negatives.
My stay at the hotel was overall satisfying. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the strong cigarette smell in a non-smoking room was a significant downside. The service was a mix of very nice and incredibly rude encounters. The location was convenient with easy access to public transportation, though some essential amenities were missing. The dining options were acceptable, but not exceptional.
The hotel is a mixed bag - while it is conveniently located near popular attractions like Camp Nou and within walking distance of Barcelona Sants station, the cleanliness leaves much to be desired. The rooms are like a coach station toilet with curtains, but the proximity to key destinations is a plus.
