Horta-Guinardo Vacations from ￥187,652

Safe, quiet, well run and looked after apartment block. Always clean and tidy. Staff very helpful and friendly

The roof top bar is excellent overlooking the old cathedral and the square below. Location of the hotel is ideal. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast option very good. Rooms are comfortable and clean.

Great hotel. Great location. As clean as you’d like. Staff was as open to helping as you could hope for. If I were to come back to Barcelona, I would return to the same hotel and would recommend others to too.

Overall this was a great place to stay. The apartment was perfectly clean, well appointed, and decorated nicely. It had good natural light and plenty of space. The beds were comfortable and the linens were soft and very clean. There was great closet space and the kitchen had all the basics including Nespresso pods and bottled water. Check in was easy and communicating through whatsapp was also very convenient and the staff was very responsive. The ability to unlock the building and apartment door automatically through an app was also very nice. My only suggestion for improvement- and it a VERY small one, is that they add a few extra hooks in the bathrooms to hang towels and clothes on. The only thing that I would want to make people more aware of is that the area is definitely more like a 20 minute walk away form Las Ramblas and other main areas. It was easy enough to find a taxi or public transporation, but it is definitely a little further than I was expecting from the reviews/descriptions. The area is definitely more local and not touristy. There are coffee shops and stores, but alot of them were closed because we were there in mid August. It gave kind of a dead vibe- but that's just because many locals go on vacation at this time. Sant Anthony market across the street from the apartment is very clean and has a lot of options for snacks and produce and some souvenirs. Also there is a very convenient Lidl supermarket directly under Sant Anthony for other staple items.

While the staff was very nice, the hotel itself is outdated and grungy. It is in La Rambla, which our driver said is a very dodgy area. This was like staying in a Motel 6.
