I am extremely happy with our stay in Olivia Balmes. As our first time in Barcelona and Spain the staff was extremely attentive and welcomed us so warmly. I would like to especially praise and applaud Joseph Vera he was the front desk person who made us feel so welcomed and made sure our stay was a home away from Home. His professional and empathetic demeanor made our long and tiring trip less stressful as he welcomed us to the hotel. The hotel was perfect! Clean, near everything, perfect location, great staff. It’s a very adorable hotel with a nice rooftop pool and the restaurants, bakery, cafe and grocery stores around was great and affordable and yummy too! It is literally 2 blocks from Passeig de Gracia and from the rooftop you can see a portion of La Sagrada and La pedrera. We would definitely comeback to this hotel next time we go back to Barcelona! Thank you!

This was an amazing hotel experience. The property was top-notch in design, cleanliness and friendliness. All the staff was so helpful. Shout out to Margarita, Rafael, Washington, Walkid (sorry for any incorrect spelling) and so many more. The rooftop pool and sitting area was great. Do yourself a favor and book here.

The staff here was amazing. Super helpful and patient. They went above and beyond daily to help us with reservations, transportation, and information. The facilities were clean snd well maintained. The location was great. Not too close to central but close enough. A walk to sagrada was about 30 minutes, the walk to La rambla was 20 minutes, to arc de triomf was 25-30 minutes. Taxis were all over the place, it was right next to a metro as well. When the staff noticed we were going for a walk they would bring us out waters before we left. I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to Barcelona

Great value, location and staff. We liked the Superior room better than the suite. We have stayed there every time we are in Barcelona. Very walkable area with lots of restaurants and shops. Tram station is across the street and its one stop to the main plaza on the edge of the old town. Staff was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Great rooftop pool and bar for taking a break. Easy access to the airport about 20 minutes by cab or 40 min by metro.
