“The hotel offered a family room option that suited our needs.”

8.4Verified guest

“A refined hotel with helpful, efficient staff. The location is a bit out of the city centre, but the room was brand-new, beautifully kept, with drinks and a great bed. Breakfast was a highlight.”

8.4Verified guest

“We return to this hotel every time we're in Barcelona. My husband often stays for business, and I join for sightseeing. The food and breakfasts are very good, and the rooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable. It's not the most modern hotel, but quality and comfort are solid. The location is great – the metro is a 2-minute walk and gets you to the centre in 20–25 minutes. A real plus is the parking (or free street parking if you're lucky), which is rare in Barcelona.”

8.4Verified guest

“The room was excellent in terms of space, and the entire staff was very professional.”

8.4Verified guest

“The hotel is fine. I knew it was on the outskirts of Barcelona, but it's well connected – the metro is 100 m away, and the green line goes directly to Plaça Catalunya or Plaça Espanya. There's a good (if pricey) restaurant with typical dishes nearby, Can Cortada. From the airport, take the Aerobus to Plaça Catalunya and then the metro.”

8.4Verified guest

“The hotel is very nice with spacious, comfortable rooms. There's a hospital nearby with ambulance traffic, but the rooms are well insulated from noise. It's in the quiet, family-friendly Horta neighbourhood. When we entered, a smoke outlet was broken and hanging; we told reception, and they offered a free breakfast or an immediate room change. The staff's attention was very efficient and friendly.”
