The staff were so kind, we got there earlier then check-in, and we were able to leave our luggage, they also informed us of the different evebts that were taking place each night of our stay
Thought this was a great place to stay. Friendly staff. Decent sized room that was clean and had nice window that opened. Perfect location to enjoy plenty in the city. Would definitely recommend to others
Great hotel conveniently located right next to the Arc de Triomf! Fabulous views from the hotels own rooftop bar! Would recommend to anyone staying in Barcelona for leisure or work!
The room looked very welcoming and clean when we first walked in! All the amenities we needed were provided. The staff at the lounge for breakfast was courteous and the food selection and quality were great!
Really lovely hotel.
Nice spacious room that was well cleaned everyday. Staff were friendly.
Good area to get to main attractions in barcelona - located in the old city.
Only reason it's not 5 stars is because me and my husband found the bed really uncomfortable so didn't sleep well.
The room and hotel were modern and comfortable. We were warmly welcomed with a glass of cava at the reception, which was a lovely touch in the room as well. The rooftop space is an excellent spot to enjoy a drink or snack while taking in the Barna landscape, and it can also be a perfect place to work for a few hours. Great place and location! And their restaurant downstairs is superb!
