I chose this hotel based on other reviews. It did not disappoint! The location is excellent, with lots of restaurants nearby, shopping and quick access to Las Ramblas. The breakfast buffet was amazing, and we took full advantage of it - lots of fresh fruit, pastries, bread for toasting, and local meats & cheeses just to name some of the items. The room was on the small side, but we had a patio to hang out on, with a table & chairs to sit at, and the bed was very comfortable (we didn't go on vacation to hang out in our room, so I didn't mind that it was a little cramped). I would definitely stay here again.

Location was excellent, very central and convenient. Staff were superb, always polite and very helpful. Breakfast was very good and all day buffet was amazing, an unexpected bonus and very welcome.

Rooms had been divided so that the en suite to room 122 was actually built into room 123. The box it formed made the room feel crowded, was a bit noisy and lacked personal privacy for the occupants of room 122. For the occupants of room 122 the toilet for staff and guests by main reception was formed from a box structure which protruded into room 122 and that at times was noisy. No outside space at all except for tiny balconies off of beautiful dining/sitting room. The room itself was stunning, but the balconies were used by smokers, which made the room smell of smoke and were not pleasant for non-smokers to use.

The hotel was located in the perfect area to walk around. At first we were given a very tiny room. not big enough to put our suitcases in. I asked to change rooms. The new one was perfect. very comfortable beds. The staff was very friendly . We really enjoyed Alex. he was very helpful to us. and took care of carrying our bags up the flights of stairs..

More TV shows in English. In the area where you ate the meals. People who smoked went on the balcony and smoked. They would leave the door open and all the smoke came inside the room. I felt like I was going to get sick . Our group of four people all felt the same. If you smoke then do it away from the building. I didn;t like having my clothes stink.

The hotel was beautiful. It was originally built in 1863 but is very updated. It was decorated in a Baroque style with gold trim and painted cherubs on the ceiling. Our room was very quiet and elegant and had a sitting room. The bed was extremely comfortable and clean. It was a perfect location on Rambla Catalunya and very convenient to restaurants and shopping. It was nice that they featured a 24 hour buffet. It mainly featured snack type food such as turkey for sandwiches and plenty of choices for fresh fruit and other snack items. The breakfast choices included several egg choices and was enough to start the day. Also fountain sodas and fresh coffee were always available. The staff was friendly and helpful.

There was an elevator from 1st to 2nd floor but to enter the hotel you had to walk up about 8-10 steps (with a rail) The bathroom had an older style tub with hand held shower. It might be difficult for travelers with mobility issues.

Has old world charm. In an excellent area. Outstanding staff. Was with a group of 6. They also had 24hr assorted buffet with beer and wine. See the pictures in the hotel website. Exactly that beautiful

That my stay was that short (2 nights)

The decor and setting of the main room, which was as the pictures, a veritable little palace without prétention as everything is self serve. The all day included access to food, drinks, beer and wine, hot breakfast 7:30 to 11:00, perfect for late sleepers like us. we walked to almost all the sites, very close access to public transportation. Wonderful feeling of being part of the action on The Rambla, although very quiet and charming inside, only 22 rooms.

The size of the room and total lack of natural light or view. Felt like sleeping in a dungeon. Could hear the cleaning ladies chatting in the corridor in the mornings, but it was around 9:00 am.

Central location, with an added bonus of having a free buffet all day, which included hot & cold drinks v much appreciated after a long day sightseeing

On arriving early the reception staff accommodated us with an early checkin. Whilst the room was v small, it was adequate for our one night stop over.

The ambiance. Friendliness of staff. Free food at the bar.

Believe it or not I have bedbugs rash. Where I got it I don’t know. In Holiday express in Amsterdam ? Delimon in Milan or continental palacete in Barcelona. It’s an unfortunate situation but these hotels specially continental should look around the room’s mattresses and crevices for bedbugs or their feces.

Location was wonderful, beds very comfortable, staff attentive and friendly. Lounge area was perfect for relaxing, taxi stand right outside the hotel. Elevator worked out well for us.

A 24 hour buffet is offered, free beer and wine. The buffet is a nice idea it leaves a bit to be desired. The hot food offered in the morning is on a hot plate, so often warm to cold. The area to dispose your plates has small bugs flying around due to the dirty dishes. They would be better off with a small dishwasher that the guest could deposit dirty dishes into.

amazing location, walkable to everything....breakfast was great BUT the best part was the cold buffet (including wine and beer)that was out for the guests to use 24/7. Very quaint hotel with large keys that you have to turn in before you leave and collect on return, someone 24 hrs on the desk. I enjoyed this feature as no chance of loosing the key! Had to buzz to get in which is an excellent security feature. Also, just in case, a large bucket of umbrellas at your disposal

I liked it all, but I did see some rooms that were very small so be sure of what you are booking.
