Cardona Vacations from ￥548,651

Vraiment bien situé et très chic hôtel.

Due to jet lag, I was trying to sleep late into the morning, but the surrounding noise was excessive. Furthermore despite having been assigned a "view room" I was unable to open the curtains, as doing so would have exposed me to construction workers right outside.

Check-in was a breeze. We arrived about 10am from a 15 night cruise. Although we couldn’t get into our rooms right away, they did store the luggage for us. This allowed us to leisurely shop/window shop/grab a bite to eat. They called within 2-3 hours to let us know our rooms were ready. Excellent location. Spacious rooms. Beds could definitely use an upgrade. Overall, I’d give it 4 stars due to the staff (exceptional doormen), unbeatable location and overall swanky-ness of the property. Only negative is the mattresses definitely need upgrading (too soft and I’m guessing poor quality or several years old—definitely time for a refresh).

It is very strange people from reception, low level, but hotel is not bad

Staff were very friendly. Property was acceptably clean. It was a little dark (dark wood), would recommend a room over looking placia de gracia, as we had, to let in as much light as possible. Once construction is completed, it should be a lot quieter (although we hardly spent any time in the room during construction hours).Location was great, walkable to many locations in Barcelona, countless places to eat. Pool was clutch, as was the roof top bar. Appreciated the 2 free drinks!!! Gracias!
