“Gorgeous boutique style hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

Stayed in the Cram last weekend for 3 nights. The hotel is a very modern style and has a real feeling of class about it. We didn't spend much time in the hotel but the rooms were very comfortable and looked very cool. The T.V did not work and they could not fix it for us but did offer to room move us (as we didn't really need the T.V this was not a problem for us so we stayed). 5/6 minute walk from the parc.

“LOVED THIS PLACE!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

people found this review helpful

So my bf and I were originally going to stay at the W as that is our style and normally we stay there if there is one in the specific city we are staying however I did a bit more browsing and found this place and I have to say, I'm SOOOO HAPPY we did! It's so chic and trendy on the inside and the rooms are cute, on the smaller side but good for a couple or solo. The bathroom was fine and there were Bvlgari toilettries. We also got welcome champagne free (2 glasses) and the 2 guys at the front desk were so helpful with everything! room was very clean and location is great, cabs are super cheap!!! I DEF reccomend staying here, esp if you want a nice place in a good location for a cheaper rate. This was about half the price of W! So glad we stayed, it's also a few blocks from all the shops, had a nice little shop and spa day! Bed was sooo compfy too and there even was a balcony you could stand on. :) STAY HERE IF U COME TO BARCELONA!

“Water problems”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Unfortunately I must concur with what many of the other reviewers have said. We stayed here at the beginning of October and, although the location and decor are excellent, we had no water for 24 hours plus WiFi connection was either non-existant or very poor.The hotel staff kept telling us that all would be fixed...so perhaps, by now, it has been, but I would get this in writing BEFORE booking a room. They did give us a small refund for our inconvenience and we found the staff to be very polite in spite of the stress they must have been under. One question: whose idea was it to put a glass door on the bathroom? This is the one room where most people want privacy. It was very awkward when we invited 4 friends to come for a drink.

I would like to inform you as we did during your stay in the hotel, we have had an unusual and unexpected situation during our stay in Cram Hotel.

Hot water pipes were broken during the night, this is why we had to close the water several times of the day and the reason why we moved guests to different rooms. No more than 4 hours a day water was closed and only 2 days were affected (can be shown as per our informatics system control). Situation was solved and a refund was done to all guests, as we have also did with you. Our General Manager has also contacted all the guests of the hotel personally, he stayed in the hotel since the night of the problem, until the following day in the morning and met most of the guests in the hotel, sorry if he couldn’t meet you during the 36 hours he stayed.

The problem is solved as it was due to defective pipes used for the hotel building. They have been changed and the hotel constructor has also has claimed to the pipe manufacture company.

We understand your dissatisfaction but this has been an unexpected situation.

Best regards

Eva de Aurora

“Excellent place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

The hotel is a nice walk away from the central parts of the city and a number of the tourist attractions. The staff are efficient, polite and professional. The room I occupied was at the back of the hotel and was consequently quiet. The room itself was comfortable and conducive for sleep. It was delightful to sit in the breakfast room and look over the roofs of Barcelona - the food was good.

This hotel greatly added to my wonderful experience of Barcelona.

Room Tip: Away from the lifts and at the back or sides of the hotel
