My wife and I and our two friends stayed here for two nights. Montse was SO kind and hospitable! She had our two rooms all ready for us, and they were incredibly beautiful and restful. Each room had a balcony overlooking trees and the street below. The rooms were quiet, but had easy access to Las Ramblas and all of... More

From the moment I contacted Montse by e-mail I knew that I had found the right place to spend my birthday week-end with my husband away from the children! The rooms are lovely with great modern and elegant features like high ceilings and Montse's helpfulness and welcome is heartwarming! She even left a treat for me in the fridge for... More

We stayed for a couple of nights at Casa Gran and had mixed feelings about the place - a beautiful spacious apartment in an elegant and historic 19th Barcelona building. The beds are very comfortable, the rooms clean and with brand new bathrooms (though we found it impossible to keep the shower water inside the very trendy but somewhat impractical... More

La Casa Gran was without question one of the highlights of my travels in 2011. My girlfriend at the time and my self stayed here for four or five nights in April 2011. Every room is very tastefully decorated. The place is very peaceful and calm. It is my understanding that Montse has moved, but I imagine her new place... More

Be Careful. The pin on the Trip Advisor Map is in the incorrect location for this B&B. La Casa Gran is no longer located on Carrer De Balmes, as indicated on the Trip Advisor Map. The new home is on Ave. Diagonal, in a building with bigger rooms and en suite bathrooms. I am planning to stay here in April... More

La casa Gran was simply wonderful! I felt welcomed and cared for, but this was not intrusive, very respectful. The enviroment was peaceful and relaxing. Montse was incrediably helpful,knowledgable and wonderfully attentive. Plus my room was immaculate and comfortable to boot! I will be staying there on my next visit to Barcelona!!! More

We stayed for 10 nights, and can't wait to go back. There are four rooms, with bathroom and balcony. How great is it to have a balcony in a great old building! We were super comfortable, and Montse, the owner, took great care to make sure we had everything we wanted. She provided so much for breakfast - those croissants... More

Montse was a helpful, kind, generous and engaging host that was extremely attentive (without being intrusive). A map that she created of the neighborhood is given to guests with some of her favorite restaurants and sights that are close by as well as information about specific tours that the average tourist might not know about. She will let you know... More

Just returned a couple of days ago from 9 nights here. Like others have said, Montse, the owner, and Clara are both extremely welcoming, friendly, and will drop everything to suddenly draw you a map or write out suggestions. Everything from places to eat to a fantastic 2nd hand market. There's free wi-fi, too. Breakfast was suited to our tastes,... More
