Hotel REC was an amazing property. The ease of check-in and check-out was great. The staff at this hotel were amazing. Any question you had they answered with a smile and truly made you feel like you were their first priority. Jason in the roof-top bar was EXCEPTIONAL. He was very personable and again, made you feel like you were the first priority. The location couldn’t be better. Near easy public transportation, restaurants and attractions. Hotel REC is a MUST STAY hotel in Barcelona. Thank you Hotel REC for a wonderful stay.

We had a comfortable stay at Hotel Rec. Room was clean and bed comfortable. The door to our toilet didn't quite fit because of what looked like some prior damage, so needs to be looked at, but other than that all good. Roof terrace and pool was lovely. Good location for exploring Barcelona and lockers for storing luggage after check out were much appreciated.

Watch for festival!!!
Hotel difficile à trouver avec l'adresse en auto. Stationnement non disponible (28$) stationné en face (55$). Aucun avis d'un festival en cour, donc pas accès à l'auto et musique plus que forte jusqu'a 2:30 am. Nous dis a l'acceuil qu'il nous offre le déjeuner vu l'inconvénient du stationnement et nous avons dù nous abstiner à la fin car charger à la chambre. Bref, hotel bien situé malgré tout, mais pas dormi du au festival

Couples getaway
Easy for the airport taxi to find. The check-in was easy and our room was spacious. The location is nice because you can easily orient yourself with the arc de triomph. It was easy to walk anywhere that we wanted but also easy to go to the main road and hail a taxi. I wish that with the space provided there had been more places to hang towels. There was one hook in the actual shower and then a second out near the tv. The bed was comfortable but was the only seating aside from one chair. The room has sound dampening from the outside but when spain won the world cup it didnt prevent the noise from the crowds getting in.

Great Hotel - Perfect Location
This was one of the most convenient hotel locations in Barcelona. It has such easy access to The Born neighborhood with all the restaurants and bars... however, you have the best bar just in the hotel on the Lounge level. Julia is the best there is and she makes it so you don't want to leave. She is so friendly and welcoming and made the experience at the hotel so much better. The pool and outside areas are perfect for watching football matches and sipping on some drinks. They offer some beer tasting and walking tours which is really nice.. and hopefully you get to experience Julia giving the beer tasting event, it was a blast! I met a few travelers and we really connected and were truly admired by Julia's ability to bring everyone together and make such a good time and good experience!
