El hotel es cómodo y céntrico, sin embargo nuestra habitación daba a la avenida y hay muchísimo ruido, sólo estuvimos una noche porque venimos a un crucero que sale de Barcelona. Fue muy buena opción pues está muy cerca del puerto. Cruceristas este hotel es buena opción!

Had a lovely stay. Reception saw I was disappointed the rooftop bar was closed so gave us two complimentary drinks to have at a sister hotel. We went to hotel 1898 for the drinks and it was lovely. Bwrg pleased with our room. The hotel is lovely. Bed very comfortable. No plug for the bath but I dare say this would have been sorted if I’d have asked for one. We were able to leave our baggage securely with concierge. Highly recommend

The hotel is at the ultimate spot for transportation. The train station is right outside the hotel's front door and it could not get more convenient than that! It is also very close to the port, Las Ramblas, Gothic Quarter and other sites! The breakfast took us by surprise because based on our previous stays in different countries in Europe, we did not expect the buffet to have so many options and the food was delightful! On our first night, there was loud commotion on our floor and we are not sure what exactly happened since we do not speak Spanish well, but eventually the police arrived to settle the situation. It would've been great if the situation was taken care of a bit quicker since it felt like it went on for at least 30 minutes, but these types of things can't quite be predicted so it's understandable. Overall, a great hotel at a great location!
