We had a one night stay before catching a cruise to the Canary Islands. This hotel is a very beautiful European hotel. The location is great for walking to many nearby points of interest. The room itself was much larger than most other European hotels for the same price and the decor was very lovely. The bathroom was also roomy and very well appointed. There were lots of amenities. The staff was very friendly and helped us find what we were looking for in a restaurant nearby. We had a lovely evening walking to a bustling shopping area with lots of great choices for eating from tapas bars to formal. We also found several cathedrals close by to visit. We were also helped to get a taxi right on time the next morning to take us to the cruise ship. We would most certainly stay at this hotel again and will recommend it to anyone lucky enough to visit beautiful Barcelona!

Enjoyed a pleasant stay here. Hotel staff was very helpful. The room and bathroom were both large. There was a large dressing area/foyer, which expanded the available space.

Carpet was thin and a bit worn, but acceptable to us. Our room was on the front of the hotel, and it was a bit noisy early one of the mornings. Otherwise, we didn't notice it.

The location was great -- just off Placa Catalunya. Close to shopping, restaurants and many sights. Just down the street from the architectural triumphs of Gaudi. We walked most of the time; when it was too far to walk, it was easy to hop on the subway or a bus. Very close to the airport bus stop.

Would definitely stay here again.

We went to this hotel in the end of August 2011. Everything worked "as it should". The hotel itself was very clean and comfortable, and the style is very classic. The staff was friendly, helpful and professional.
I think this would be a great hotel on business. For a romantic stay it was very good also, but no "charm".
All in all we had a very nice stay, and I have nothing bad to say about it.

We stayed at the hotel over the New Year holiday and were very happy with the whole experience. The online booking and check-in worked perfectly. We had a really nice if a bit small-ish room (fifth floor with terrace, worth asking for), which was clean and comfortable. We didn't eat at the hotel because there are so many bars and restaurants around the hotel. The location is excellent, it is 5 minute walk to the nearest metro and only slightly longer to all of the main sites in central Barcelona.

One word of advice, listen to what the reception staff tell you about watching out for pickpockets etc. We were in Barcelona for just 5 days and had one attempted bag snatch while walking back to the hotel one evening.
