“love the place will go back”

the hotel is a beautiful old european hotel which was comfort and the staff warm and helpful

“Faded Grandeur”

The decor of this hotel is somewhat over-the-top but it has many excellent saving graces. The staff are lovely and speak good english. There is food and drink available free 24 hours a day with extra hot dishes from 9 - 12 noon. The rooms are smallish but have everything you need including comfortable beds. Our bathroom was fine and the shower excellent. Location is very handy at the very top of the Ramblas just above Placa Calalunya. There are value for money restaurants all around and eating outside in November is a real treat.

“Great location”

This reasonable hotel was in a great location for walking around the city. It was near the west end of Las Ramblas, and Plaza de Catalunya, and within walking distance of Casa Batllo and Casa Mira, two Gaudi designed buildings open to the public. The all day buffet was good for travelers on a budget and had not great but adequate food. The dining room was worth the visit, Baroque in style with gilt, mirrors, chandeliers and french doors open to the street below. Ån elegant way to dine. The mattresses in the rooms we stayed in were excellent but the pillow were like pancakes. A very pleasant stay and I would recommend it to anyone going to Barcelona.
