“Good hotel in good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

If there was a rating between 'average' & 'good' I would have used it. 'Very good' is slightly generous.

The hotel is modern, clean and comfortable but not outstanding in my opinion. There were too many little niggles which spoilt it for us. For example the wifi is virtually non-existent on the higher floors and we needed to get new codes every day to get access which became frustrating. Our door keys kept resetting themselves which meant several tips back down to reception to sort out (ok, maybe just bad luck).

The thing I would definitely warn about is the car park. I consider myself a reasonably good driver and we had rented quite a small car but I found it very difficult to manoeuvre around the narrow underground car park and resorted to actually trying to reverse in as it was so difficult to get out of the small spaces.

The location is good with a metro stop only a minute's walk away and we found it quite easy to get out of the city from there as it is located near one of the main roads.

All in all I would say good but not outstanding.

“Good hotel, calm area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

person found this review helpful

The hotel is located at 10 minutes from the city center, 5 metro stops away. It is situated in a selected area of Barcelona where new buildings and Modernist houses coexist. The interior of the hotel is nice and have unusual murals “signs”. The hotel is small and this is the charm of it. I recommend you to stay at upper floors if you have sleep problems or want to sleep more, because early in the morning the street in front of hotel starts to be crowded.
The hotel is convenient for all transport for historic city center or Montjuic or Tibidabo Mountain (if you like to walk it will take 20 minutes). The hotel is at 2 minutes from metro, L7 (El Putxet).
The staff was helpful but not all of them were exactly friendly. It is free wifi. The room had comfortable beds and was very clean, neighborhood nice with many conveniences (market, bakery, coffee bars, etc).
I recommend the hotel, and I advice you to take a room on the upper floor.

Room Tip: Take room on upper floor.

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in December. The hotel was very close to a metro stop, clean, full size bathtub/shower which is a treat in Europe. The neighborhood was cute with a few good pastry shops. I would stay stay here again if I head back to Barcelona.

“Great Location, good price but a few flaws”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

people found this review helpful

The hotel is situated a matter of minutes away from Las Rambla and the central hub in a nice quiet area

From our experience don't accept a room on the ground floor - room was humid and i was awoken by the smell of bacon which some may like but i don't eat or like !.

Upon asking the reception what the issue was with the room temp and bacon smell - i was informed the aircon is turned off and the i was lying about the smell in room, in fact the peron was down right rude. My request was simple can i change room !.

Good price and away from the all the noise - so you would think the windows are made from paper.

Overall good price and location staff could improve somewhat

Room Tip: Do not accept room on ground floor and if possible at back of building

“Lovely hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2011

This hotel is located only 15 minutes from Placa Catalunya, 5 metro stops. It is located in a quiet neighbourhood, 2 minutes walk from the metro station (El Putxet on L7). We stayed there for 7 nights and it was one of the most beautiful hotels we have ever been to. Very helpful staff, free wifi and great breakfast. The hotel is increadible clean, my thanks and my regards to the staff who make this possible. We got a room on the ground floor with a nice terrace and it was the perfect way of spending the evenings after a busy day of walking around Barcelona. For sure we will come back to this hotel next time we will arrive in Barcelona.

Room Tip: Ask for rooms 5 or 6 on the ground floor, especially if you are smoking or if you need a peaceful te...
