Very Nice Hotel.
Greeted with a smile and very nice concierge employees at the front desk Lovely hotel with a very good spa and restaurant. Great well sized rooms with very comfortable beds. Great bathrooms. My only two negatives with the hotel but one of them not really there fault was we were woken up in the early hours of the morning by a very noisy couple for at least an hour. (If only she could have kept her mouth shut). I did forget to tell concierge about this. Secondly the restaurant was lovely with a good set menu but unfortunately the two main courses were not to mine and my wife’s liking. Over all a very nice one night stay.

Great but not so great
Beautiful hotel, great location and provided a quite peaceful environment which was the main reason I booked it. The front desk staff are extremely friendly and go out of their way to accommodate one and rectify the mistakes off the other staff. House keeping was a bumpy start, did not clear the room to standard. I had to unfortunately point out a few things, e.g. at least stock up the coffee capsules. The next day Judith left in the room a complimentary fruit bowl which was kind of her, the service improved but was not consistent. Every person servicing the room did it differently, no set standard. Breakfast and lunch menu is not very extensive, great if you stay there for a few days, not a week. My personal driver was treated with such disrespect trying to just find at the best suitable parking spot to wait for me. The light switches in the room is a nightmare to operate. Overall a lovely hotel, not 5 stars though.

Excellent small luxury hotel; wonderful service
Loved this small luxury hotel just a 12 minute metro ride to the heart of Barcelona. We ate a gourmet breakfast each day ( included with our room) in a beautiful dining area that overlooked the hotel’s private garden. There was also a lovely spa and indoor pool that we enjoyed in the late afternoon. While we didn’t have a chance to eat there, the hotel boasts a Michelin 3 star restaurant too. We enjoyed being in a local neighborhood versus in the thick of the tourist area. Since the metro was literally across the street, access to all the places we wanted to go was a snap and couldn’t have been any more convenient. We would highly recommend staying here.

Perfect for a few days away. The room was exceptionally stylish, comfortable and spacious. The staff were friendly and efficient. There is a slight air of formality about the place (as perhaps one would expect from a 5 star hotel attached to a 3 Michelin starred restaurant) but not to the point of being unwelcoming or austere. I consider this to be a positive. They are serious about providing outstanding service!

Luxurious Oasis
This hotel was the perfect place to stay the night before our early morning flight to California from Barcelona. We had spent a week cycling in Girona with fairly rustic accommodations. Landing in this luxurious hotel upon the recommendation of a friend was a blessing. The hotel is located in a wonderful neighborhood which was great for walking around before spending a day sitting on planes. The staff was amazing and so accommodating and the food was fantastic. The hotel was about a 25 minute drive to airport at 7 a.m. It is very much a boutique hotel with only 15 rooms and the grounds are like an oasis in a bustling neighborhood. Highly recommend.

Exquisite Hotel and Food
Incredible hotel and incredible experience. The staff is so nice and attentive. They can help you out with anything you need. The restaurant is some of the best food I've ever had. It's a small hotel, as far as we could tell there are less than a dozen rooms overall which gives it a very personalized feel. The spa is beautiful - pool and hot/steam sauna. Great outdoor area for eating. The breakfast is served in a small dining room and is delicious. The room had a great bed and a rainfall shower. The hotel is in a nice and quiet residential neighborhood, so you will need to cab or metro to get to any of the big tourist sites - but we did walk to Park Guell which took about 20-25 min.

Lovely attention to detail
Stayed four nights at this lovely, luxurious hotel to celebrate my husbands birthday. Very attentive staff and accommodate your needs efficiently. The meal in the restaurant was a unique experience and one both my husband and I will remember for a lifetime. Ye sit is expensive but worth a bucket list tick ✅ The tour bus stops right outside the hotel, metro is easy too. Las ramblas is about 45 minutes walk. Ideal hotel and would recommend highly.

The hotel is fabulous, but avoid the restaurant
We had a fantastic stay. The hotel itself is beautiful, the neighborhood is quiet, and it's very easy to get to city center. Our room was lovely & spacious, with a large terrace on which we enjoyed the excellent room service breakfast each morning. The staff are friendly, incredibly helpful, & very professional. They speak impeccable English. The spa was also lovely - we made use of the hot tub & pool. We also got massages - the masseuses were great & very nice. The only disappointing part of the stay was our highly anticipated meal at the 2 Michelin starred restaurant. We chose the avant-garde tasting menu & one wine pairing. We have adventurous palates & have been working through the Michelin list, and this is the worst food experience we've had. The food was simply not good. The staff were stellar - helpful & attentive, which definitely improved the experience. The room service menu is excellent- we loved everything we tried. Highly recommend ordering the a la carte items to your room instead & forgoing the restaurant- it'll save you $$$ & you'll get an excellent meal. Overall - definitely recommend this hotel.

The best kind of small hotel
I don't usually notice the service I get from hotel staff - unless it is particularly bad - but I have to say the staff at this hotel were exceptional (and I've stayed at some top hotels). Arriving late and being let in at the gate, a receptionist came up in the lift to greet me and take the bag. Staff helped with everything I needed, including charging phones, getting taxis, finding the right food etc.nothing out of the ordinary but done in such a way that I felt cared for rather than just another customer. It's rare to find that kind of graceful service so thank you and well done.

Great hotel and a restaurant with fabulous breakfa
ABaC is a great small hotel, out of touristy areas of Ramblas and Barceloneta. It's character and attention to details sets it apart. With a green cover all around, it's a sanctuary of sorts. Of course the added advantage of having Chef jordi cruz around and taste a Traditional or a Grand tasting menu is a feast of flavours and an experience by itself.
