We really enjoyed the location, very central. Lots of shopping available nearby. The hotel amenities were great; a nice common lounge area where they have a coffee/espresso maker, filtered water dispenser, comfortable seating & an outdoor rooftop patio. They host a happy hour every evening, serving wine & snacks on the house. We had an unfortunate food poisoning experience from a nearby restaurant & the staff went above & beyond to help us. We needed a doctor to come to our room & they arranged it & then went to the pharmacy across the walkway from the hotel to fill a prescription for us. The room was lovely, very roomy & quiet. We were in room 105, next to the elevator, which was initially a concern, but there was no noise from it at all. I would make one suggestion; ask if the mattress has been replaced recently, ours was sagging a bit on both sides but not to the point that we couldn't sleep.

Nice, clean, boutique hotel. Great location that is walkable to many tourist areas and restaurants. I give it four stars because of value for money. 500 euros a night is exorbitant for what you get and I have stayed in far nicer places in Spain for the same price. I suspect prices were inflated because of the yacht race and big conference that was in town.

I absolutely love this property and believe this will be the go to hotel when I visit Barcelona again. It is convenient for transportation (taxi, metro), dining options ( right next to el nacional), shopping (right on Passeig de Gracia), and cocktail bars. It’s also a short walk to casa batlo and other gaudi attractions.

Location is excellent, most sights are within walking distance. Hotel rooms are on the smaller side but given it's in a historic building, it is understandable. The shower area has a few places that appears to be moldy, might require some deep cleaning. Bed is comfortable. Would be nice to have iron and ironing board in the room.

This is a very cute hotel and our 4 day stay here was superb. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They gave us some great recommendations for places to eat. The morning breakfast/coffee bar was nice, but don’t be late. We also enjoyed the evening wine/snacks every evening. We will be back if we come to Barcelona again.
