Reviews
The hotel's interior space is spacious and grand, and the rooms are neat and clean, with excellent hygiene management. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic, providing thoughtful and attentive service. The accommodation area felt very safe and secure.
They also offer a convenient free bicycle rental service, which makes short trips and sightseeing exceptionally hassle-free. It’s suitable for both tourism and extended stays, offers good value for money, and provides an excellent overall experience. Highly recommended.
Personally, I highly recommend the route from the hotel to Poblenou Cemetery, and then from the cemetery to Bogatell Beach. It's less crowded, and the scenery is beautiful. If you don't feel like walking back, you can catch the V23 bus. Barcelona's 'third spaces' are everywhere – not just on Diagonal and Passeig de Gràcia. You can enjoy urban strolls in many neighborhoods; when you get tired, just sit on a street bench for some 'photosynthesis,' or head back to the hotel for a relaxing cup of tea.
Overall, if you're traveling as a couple and not focused on 'military-style' sightseeing and photo ops, this place offers great value for money.
The front desk service was excellent, very thorough, and patient in explaining routes and the most convenient way to get to the airport.
The only downside is that the hotel is a bit far from the city center, but it's close to the metro, so you can easily take that to downtown. Also, rooms with a view of Sagrada Familia face the street, so there can be some noise.
Otherwise, it was quite good.
