“Breakfast buffet was amazing. Great variety and choice of freshly-made food. Waitresses did a really good job of tidying up and collecting waste.”

“Location is great but the square in front of the hotel has homeless people. Rooms were very clean and cleaned daily. Contrary to some reviews, I found reception staff friendly and helpful, though some less so than others.”

8.8Verified guest

“Great position, friendly and helpful staff.”

8.8Verified guest

“Good location. Sea, port, Ramblas, supermarkets, restaurants, subway—everything within walking distance. Due to central location, nighttime noise was noticeable (room facing the square), but windows close well and block sound. Adjustable climate is a plus. Rooms are big enough, bathroom as well—everything spotless. Very comfortable wide bed, blackout curtains. Safe, mini fridge, ample storage. Breakfast was really good with lots of choice and quality items, all self-service.”
