Guest reviews
Fabulous
Comfortable stay in well-located hotel
Lovely hotel, good location
Liked: Central location right beside the Paral-lell metro stop. Lovely breakfast selection. Friendly staff.
Disliked: We had a street facing room. Very noisy at night with passing traffic and emergency services vehicles etc. A pair of ear plugs sorted it out though! I think the hotel is adjacent to the Raval district, a couple of sketchy nearby streets at night time!
Good value and very clean and comfortable room
Liked: Clean rooms, Friendly and helpful staff, excellent breakfast
Disliked: Location and view from the room
Liked: The bed was comfortable, the location was very good and the breakfast had a good selection.
Disliked: The room had a slightly unpleasant smell to it, only noticeable as you walked in, you got used to it fairly quickly. At one point one of the staff walked into my room without notice, which I thought was a bit odd, they didn’t seem that bothered.
Good place to stay while exploring Barcelona
Liked: Central location plenty of restaurants and theaters
Disliked: A/C and heating unit
Liked: Cleanliness, friendly staff
Disliked: Breakfast has limited choices.
