I am delighted with this hotel. The location is amazing. A short stroll to the main tourist and shopping areas like Ave de Gracie.
We walked from here to Rambla and all over.
Room sizes were huge and comfortable
Great hotel, good size rooms and really well designed, friendly helpful staff.
Train station across the road. Easy walk to Gaudi houses and shops. Quiet and comfortable. Pool too cold for my taste but still a lovely spot to sit and relax.
Really nice place. The room was nice, the pool was great, and we walked to most of the tourist attractions or to the hop on hop off bus. The breakfast was excellent, and the supper we had at the restaurant was really good.
The property was amazing and the staff was the best!! The room was clean and well stocked with anything we could have needed. Breakfast was great and the bar was well stocked.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Loved the property, very clean great breakfast and a wonderful stuff. Will definitely return to this venue.
It’s my second time staying at Olivia Balmes. I love the location, because you’re very close to nice restaurants and good shops. Plus the staff is lovely and very helpful
Staff were exceptional and very respectful. Room was spacious, clean and awkwardly functional. It was interesting but trying too hard. Mattress was super hard and pillows leave something to be desired. Location is excellent - one block or so to the walking strip La Ramba, subway station right there, gluten free bakery and coffee shops across street.
We truly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff was friendly and attentive. The location is quite convenient given the proximity with main streets of the city
