I am a single mommy who traveled to Barcelona with his eight-year-old son. Besides the fact that the hotel has a great location (basically in the epicenter of all touristic sights in walking distance), the best about this hotel was its wonderful staff! Super nice, kind, helpful and understanding staff! Our stay was unfortunately overshadowed by the fact that my son fell sick with fever on the first day of our arrival. The staff was very understanding and helped me with everything that could ease such a situation. Wish I could name them all by their names, nevertheless even though I remember some names, I would like to express on a general note my wholehearted thanks to all staff, from the cleaning ladies who arranged my son’s plush on the bed in a nice way to make him feel better, to the kind ladies at breakfast catering who always got us some green apples (since this was the only thing my son would eat) to the amazing people at the reception who went beyond what could be said is their duty (they were eager in helping me with re-booking some tickets I bought earlier, showed me the way to pharmacies and even played with my son! and so much more!) Barcelona is surely worth visiting no matter what, but especially if you get the chance to meet some gems as these folks! No tourist site can ever render me with such wholehearted and kind memories of Barcelona as these wonderful people have done it! Thank you once again to all staff of ibis Styles Barcelona Centre!

Location: Walking distance from Diagonal or Verdaguer (much closer) stations. 1 km or approximately 13 minutes walking distance to Sagrada Familia. Lots of cafès (there’s one downstairs and we exiting the building with al fresco tables) and restaurants in the neighborhood. Safe for evening stroll. Facilities: The room has enough space for two (traveling with my teenager daughter). Bathroom is clean. Breakfast buffet was good with cold cuts and cheese selections. Sheets are decent. Check-in/out was smooth and fast, which were both completed in 10 minutes. Bringing up/down the big luggages was not a problem at all. The staff are friendly, accommodating, and helpful.

Pillows were okay with one for sleeping and 2 small pieces for decoration. This didn’t bother us. We still slept fine. :)

The undoubted plus of the hotel is its location and very friendly and helpful staff as well as tasty breakfast. Close to the subway station and a bus stop close to the center. Unfortunately, I would advise against staying in rooms on floor 1, in room 105 all night we could hear noise- (elevator mechanism, doors) which we were not informed about. On the other hand, room 108 , had a balcony, which could be an advantage, however, it faced the inside of the building and the walls of the balcony in gray were so high that you could only see the higher floors of neighboring buildings, little daylight, not a nice impression. The price was also probably a little too high for the conditions in the rooms. Perhaps on higher floors the impression would be better. Fortunately, we were only one night so it was not a major problem for us.

the breakfast, the room, the staff !!

the noise from the neighbors:( we can hear everything

1) Firstly, can state that location of the hotel is impressing: everything is under your hand. There is a Verdaguer metro station right in the corner. 2) Comfortable room (bathroom is small, which is ok for boutique hotel), amazing and responsive personal. 3) Perfect place for a lunch is Palermo (recommended by staff), which has big portions and the cheapest prices. 4) If you want to visit Michelin Restaurant, then my recommendation is Caelis Restaurant (in Ohla Hotel). 5) Also upload Maps.me application and download the country you are visiting, so you will have access to the map without internet connection. 6) You can buy unlimited ticket for 3 days, which really help if you are planning to visit Barceloneta, Park Guel and the places far from hotel.

There were not shampoo, toothpaste, shower gel and slippers included, so do not forget to take those items with yourself. Breakfast is a little bit poor. Also, unfortunately lots of people do not speak English properly, so try to learn some Spanish beforehand :D

The breakfast was great, there was a wide variety of the most commonly eaten breakfasts in Europe. The staff was really helpful and kind, and our room was also very clean. The area where the hotel is at was pretty safe, even at night. Everything is relatively close, so we mostly went everywhere on foot, but there are also several buses available right in front or next to the hotel and 2 metro lines in a less than 5 minute walk.

We liked the location and how easy it was to walk around and see local sites. The front desk staff were very helpful and accommodating.

Breakfast was OK but often things were gone or almost empty. The hotel was very busy and the staff in the restaurant were doing their best so no complaints regarding them. Perhaps a little understaffed?

The hotel was extremely good The location is very good The staff had a great hospitality The breakfast was very good The room was clean

The coffee machine of the hotel wasn't working except in the breakfast only, and the room hasn't a kettle nor a small refrigerator

Very good location – walking distance to Sagrada Familia (15 mins), La Pedrera (10 mins) and Plaza de Catalunya (20 mins). Three Metro stations within a 15 minute walk. Good choice of bars and restaurants in the neighbourhood. Friendly, helpful reception staff. Good breakfast, good wifi. Clean, comfortable room. Hotel very reasonably priced by Barcelona standards.

Nothing to dislike.

Excellent breakfast. Big safe. Close to many tourist sites. Quiet area, easy check in and out. Good bed and pillows. Nice big shower. Lift for luggage. Was able to watch American football on an Austria sports channel, which was nice.

Could use a more comfortable chair in room.
