Olivia Plaza Hotel Reviews

The hotel is smart and convenient being close to many major tourist spots, public transport and the superb 'hop on, hop off' tourist bus.

This hotel is in a great location, right in the heart of the action. This has its plus and minuses. The plus is you are close to everything. The minus is you are in from of the piazza and it can be noisey at night. Earplugs might be needed. The rooms are modern and very comfortable. The staff very friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.

The hotel is situated right at the top of the Ramblas, close to a lovely park and close to the tour bus stop. The Reception staff and the doorman were all extremely helpful and courteous at all times. Nothing was too mych trouble for them and they even booked us our tickets online for the Sagrada Famillia which saved us hours of queuing.

We came to Barcelona from a Mediterranean cruise and picked the hotel based on only having 1.5 days in Barcelona. The staff recommended a fantastic Tapas restaurant set us up with tickets on the tour on/off bus so we could explore and held our luggage until check-in. The stay wan't cheap (perhaps because we had 3 peaople) but the facility/ proximity and staff made up for it!

Nice Hotel in the heart of everything esp transport links. La Rambla is round the corner and the beach is a 30 minute walk. Would defo recommend this hotel.

This hotel is very well situated, very easy to get to (we took the shuttle bus from the airport and it went to the square that the hotel is on). Very easy to get to the bus tours, the Ramblers, the sea front, shops, restaurants, cafes, etc., Wi-fi internet access came in the price which was also handy.

We booked a Queen Room - however, when we checked-in we were given a twin room, we had to go back to reception and change rooms, only to get a smaller room with a double bed. It was a long process to check-in, we waited for a while. When we booked we mentioned we had booked for our anniversiary - no extra treatment was provided to mark our special day nor was it acknowledged when we checked-in. I found that rather disappointing!

everything was perfect but i knew that there is a car parking at the hotel but when i arrived , the hotel car parking was closed and i had to park my car at the local parking which is very expensive.

We were delighted with this hotel. We didn't realise just how good the location was when we booked it. It is just beside the Rambla which is the main pedestrian area in Barcelona and it is in Placa de Catalunya which is where you get all the main transport links. We paid extra for a superior room and were well pleased. As we entered the room the blind automatically went up revealing a view over the square.

I chose to stay here after a recommendation from a friend. The first issue we had was the air con was broken in our room and when we called reception to inform them they were very slow in dealing with the problem, we were simply told that the maintenance men were dealing the problem which was apparently an issue on the whole of our floor! After waiting for some time, we requested that we changed room as we couldn't cope with the heat which they agreed to. After a few hours of waiting around we were finally moved to a different room only to find that the electronic card did not work in the door and the following morning the safety box ran our of battery so our belongings were locked in there!
