Platja de la Descàrrega

Very nice Hotel Centrally Located easy access to alot of areas.

Amazing staff and service

Ideally located for Nou Camp Stadium and public transport links (bus stop, tram and Metro all within 7 min walk of the hotel). Massive choices of food for breakfast, to suit every palate; and a hot plate chef who cooked eggs to your specifications - friend, scrambled, omelette’s. Breakfast room had smoke seating, was light, bright, airy and clean. Reception area and bar were large, well lit and clean. Reception and breakfast staff were excellent - polite, well dressed and knowledgeable. Bedroom was large and daily cleaning / linen service to replace towels. However, laminate and tiled floors were not mopped well and you could not walk around bare foot or in socks. The shower gel ran out the day before we left and was not topped up by cleaning staff. We booked the hotel for location, which was perfect. We also booked for the rooftop pool and loungers. Used the rooftop pool a few times, but it got busy and there was not always loungers - as these were all full. I’d recommend a visit to the many beaches - Barceloneta is closest, is cheap / cheerful, but used mainly by locals and can be busy and noisy. No sun bed hire on this beach. We also ventured to Nova Icària beach, which is 10 mins further away. Well worth the visit. Sun bed ($10 Euro each) and umbrella hire, and bar / food service from the bar at the rear. We also booked hotel for the spa, but did not realise until we arrived that it was not included with the price ($19 Euro) for 1.5 hours - so we didn’t use it.
