    It as more Basic than Chic. The room was a bit too plain.

    The staff were friendly and helpful. The lounge area was a great place to hang out with comfortable chairs. The coffee bar and Water Fountain with filtered water was a nice addition.

    It was a little bit noisy from the corridor.

    It is chic. It is basic. And that's what it is. Thanks for the nice stay. Breakfast for Spanish standards very good. Lovely decorating items in the room and the floor.

    The room is small and the window was on an internal small court with almost no natural light. The rooms could be better noise-proof. Some clothes hanger in the room and in the bathroom would have been appreciated. The value for money is not particularly good, but that's a general problem in Barcelona (so the hotel is overall fine).

    I stayed 4 nights in this hotel during a business trip. The hotel was chosen because convenient with respect to the location of my work commitments and because of cost considerations. The hotel served its function: bed and pillows were comfortable and I particularly appreciated the cleanliness of room and bathroom. Wi-Fi works well. The breakfast area is really enjoyable with a nice terrace too. Breakfast is rich and good. Staff is super kind and collaborative, definitely a plus for the hotel. They were truly supportive when our flight was cancelled and we had to find another accommodation for the night: this support is not so obvious to get. The hotel is located 5 minutes far from the metro station, 10 from the shuttle from the airport and close to many bus lines heading to the city centre. Raval is at 25 minutes walking.

    the value for money. - in the same charge, might be breakfast be included and still few more inclusions OR the charge be lesser. it’s really costly.

    good location - a km and few more mtrs from city center. but, the main important location - the musical water fountain - the central market - the city museum are just few meters away. few good restaurants just outside the hotel. professional staff. excellent kitchen facilities and round the clock tea/coffee, mineralised water. excellent seating spaces. excellent location.

    I could not notice any drawbacks within 1 night of the stay.

    We have stayed only for 1 night, but we enjoyed our stay a lot. Location was very good, because it was close to bus station from were you easily reach airport. The neighborhood was also quiet. The hotel itself was modern, the room was clean and comfortable. There is a bar open during a day where you can take free coffee and tea, and nice space/terrace to rest (very nice touch that I like very much). Also, many more small details about design you will definitely like.

    We didn't get breakfast included but I don't it would be worth the money, we just bought pastries from a bakery the day before to have for breakfast.

    Can't fault the place. Good value for money, staff are lovely and accommodating, and great location.

    The room I stayed was definitely more basic than chic and I found the price relatively high for the quality of the hotel but it could be that it was due to the specific dates I was staying there, as many events were going on in Barcelona, including the F1 grand prix.

    The location of the hotel is very convenient if like me you have to go to the Barcelona fair. It is in a nice neighbourhood not far from there, in a road quieter than the main "gran via" and close to many restaurants and bars. The terrace bar at the first floor is very nice.
