Lovely hotel in the centre of Barcelona, it was very clean and the facilities in the room were modern. The staff were friendly and helpful. Aircon in the room worked perfectly. The roof terrace was a nice place to go and read in the sun. My only issue was that I could hear the people in the room next door. Overall I would definitely use this hotel again when visiting barcelona .

We only stayed the one night but it was a great stay. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the water pressure was great and also hot. It’s definitely an older hotel and I wish it would have been a bit cooler in our room, or we even had the option to make it cooler, but other than that that’s my only complaint. Their check out wasn’t until 12pm, which is really nice compared to any other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Wish we could have stayed here longer!

Guestrooms and corridors appear to have been renovated in past few years and nicely appointed. Air conditioning is limited with the thermostat not permitted to be set colder than 23.4 degrees Celsius (74 degrees Fahrenheit); as someone who needs a cool room to sleep, this was disappointing. It did cool down some once the sun went down and I opened a window to cool the room down a bit, but won’t be able to keep the window open all night due to the busy street below.
