Great hotel, good size rooms and really well designed, friendly helpful staff. Train station across the road. Easy walk to Gaudi houses and shops. Quiet and comfortable. Pool too cold for my taste but still a lovely spot to sit and relax.

Location chosen by our friends who live in a suburb of Barcelona. We had a suite with adjoining room for our 2 teen children. Staff was courteous and helpful with excellent personalized service. Location was perfect - close enough to sites without being super touristy. When we return to Barcelona, we will stay here again.

This hotel had great service. The room was clean, comfy, and quiet. The only problem was that it was stinky do to dry drain pipe, not sure if they can fix that problem but the smell was very unpleasant. Otherwise the facilities were great, the terrace pool was nice for the location and the breakfast was really good with good selection. The location is great, there were many great restaurants and attractions in walking distance and metro was very close too.

This is a lovely hotel that is very well situated to the city centre. The rooms are clean and well equipped, and the breakfast that is included is very good. The pool is not a 'swimming' pool as it is a bit shallow, but the rooftop terrace and pool area is a nice place to hang out on a rest day or in the evenings. The restaurant, Seventeen is very good but they were quite understaffed (or it was particularly busy the day we went) which slowed things down quite a lot. I'd recommend this hotel and would stay here again. The staff are all lovely and very helpful.
