Chic & Basic Zoo is located in El Born, now one of the most fashionable and cosmopolitan districts of central Barcelona. On one side is the Gothic Quarter, to the other is Ciutadella Park, and the port is a few minutes away. From the hotel, you can easily get to the historic city centre, the Gothic Quarter (Barrio Gótico) where the Cathedral, Santa Maria del Mar, Plaza Sant Jaume and Santa Anna are located. The hotel is also very close to the zoo, the Ciutadella Park, beaches and the Olympic Port. In the neighborhood you will also find nightlife, bars, restaurants (the area of El Born is where you´ll find the most typical ‘tapas’) and museums, such as the Picasso Museum.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.0 for a two-person trip.

    The neighbourhood location was excellent but the walk from the Metro is not exactly near as the check in is in a different location. Hopefully that will be addressed in future. Rooms were clean and atmosphere cosy.

    Lovely staff. The room was cleaned every day and they gave us clean towels every day. The bathroom was very big. The hotel had free coffee and fresh and sparkling water. The AC worked without the key card so it was cold when we got to the hotel...
