We stayed at this very exceptional hotel in October, it was WONDERFUL. The location is great , slightly set back from La Rambla so less noise. It has so much charm as I understand it to have been the formerly the mansion of a wealthy family involved in the tabaco trade many years prior. They had a lovely rooftop terrace where you would have drinks and light meals, and we also had a terrace off of our room, which you can request. The location is a 10, the room layout, cleanliness maintenance is a 10, the staff members were so friendly and helpful , as they were in the morning breakfast area also a 10, the breakfast buffet was fresh and wonderful, lots of fruit, pasty , cheese hot entree choices also a 10. It was so close to everything we could walk to shops, the mercado del la Boqueria, and to all the nearby very interesting neighborhoods. Highly recommend! Everything about this property is a 10/10!!
