Reviews
This hotel was a great place to stay. Our groom was very spacious and warm decor. The staff were friendly and spoke fairly good English. There is an outside pool on the top floor and contemporary relaxing seating areas and a bar with good views of the city. There is a restaurant but we didn’t use it. There were plenty of eating places nearby including McDonalds, KFC, Pans and restaurants etc. Underground train station two minutes walk away. The hotel is only twenty minute walk away from the harbour and main city. We would come back again.
This is our second time experiencing this well maintained and very well located accommodation. The reception is extremely helpful, no language barrier, nice consistent smile. Restaurant has excellent menu and the food is very tasty. Room cleanliness is also excellent.
We would certainly recommend this hotel to all our friends whether they come off a cruise or for a longer stay…. Thank you to all the staff who made our stay very enjoyable.
Great location, right opposite a metro - but also you can feel the metro in the room and it goes quite late. If you're not able to sleep through that, it will not be pleasant, even in the higher floors. Otherwise location is great, brilliant views from the top floor, can see the sea in the distance.
Rooms are very nice, bathroom lovely, good size generally. TV does not have netflix and I couldn't connect my phone to show the screen, though that is supposed to be an option.
Breakfast is really good, plenty of options, really fresh, both hot & cold, sweet & savoury. Really good. Coffee is not great though.
Rooftop pool is lovely for a dip, it's not for swimming really, but beautiful place to cool down and enjoy the view.
Amazing hotel and such a lovely experience! 🥰
The reception team was super welcoming and always ready to help with any questions. Special shoutout to Oscar — he was so much fun, gave us loads of great tips on where to go, and was absolutely adorable! 🫶
I especially loved doing my workouts on the rooftop under the sun and then cooling off in the pool. Such a great experience and definitely one of my favourite things about the hotel!
The rooms are perfect — spacious, clean, and really comfortable.
The only thing worth knowing before coming is that the hotel is located near an area that can feel a little sketchy (not the hotel’s street itself, but the neighbourhood just behind it). That said, it didn’t affect our stay at all.
Overall, an amazing hotel — would definitely stay here again! ✨
After contacting the hotel before our arrival to explain that we were celebrating a special occasion, they went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We were upgraded to a beautiful room and welcomed with flowers and chocolates on arrival, which was a lovely touch.
The hotel's location is excellent, with everything you need within a 5–10 minute walk. If you're planning a trip to Barcelona, I would highly recommend staying here.
