Refined, traditional city centre hotel

Sumptuous decor in this old traditional hotel, staff were friendly and polite, rooms very quiet - from outside and inside noise, breakfast superb - if you couldn't find anything you liked from the vast spread the chef would be only too happy to make it for you!

Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you felt the price was unfair for the parking: as much as we wished to offer it complimentary, please take into account that the car park does not belong to the hotel, as the limitations of the building do not allow us to do so. Furthermore, when parking with the hotel you obtain a reduced price than if you would park it yourself, as well as a complimentary valet service which is an extra you are not required to pay for. I hope in any case that we can welcome you back another time, and please do not hesitate to reach me directly if I can be of any further assistance. Best Regards, Pablo Aldemira Front Office Manager paldemira@hotelpalacebarcelona.com
