The room we had to house 3 adults was quite large, two single beds and a sofa bed. The bathroom was also quite large, so we felt very comfortable in the room. The hotel staff were very helpful.

If I were to go to Barcelona again, I would want to be closer to the Ramblas and Barri Gotic. Also, the hotel was comfortable and pleasant, but charged extra for all telephone calls, including local calls and calls charged to a calling card. It also charged for the safe in the room at the hefty fee of around $5 a day!! Go somewhere else!

A little dark (dark woods) but a good hotel. Francesco was a good help :) The breakfast was excelent. The downside was that we were in a triple and the third bed was not very good. In terms of location it's near the Batlo's house and La Pedreira, Passeo Gracia, but not IN the ramblas, so if you like "noise" this is not your hotel.

Good hotel Overall we were happy with the hotel and the service from the staff. We did find that the hotel was a long walk from the main tourist spots though ie the Ramblas.

Good location, just ok The tour bus is great, you can hop-on-hop-off, it gives you a good feel of the city. For tapas try the area near the port and spend some time walking the little alleyways in the old part of town - they are beautiful.
