Spacious rooms, close to the metro station Putxet, great breakfast buffet, very friendly staff, child friendly, nice but very small pool on the roof, diner in the restaurant was poor (steak was baked far too long)

Quite well located in the northern part of the city, although on a busy road and just around the corner of the wide (and very busy) avenue Mittre.
The entrance is nothing special and actually quite weird as you pass through a kind of restaurant.
There is a small lobby with friendly staff.
The first room I got was on the first floor, was quite spacious but had no big (only three small, side) windows. It felt claustrophobic and I asked to get a room higher up with a view. That was possible and organised in a couple of minutes. The new room, on the top floor, was correct in size and had a (somehow run down) terrace, overlooking the neighbourhood.
Neither the room nor the bathroom were special in design. Functional is probably the best description. All fairly clean.
The bed and pillows were excellent and very clean.
I didn’t have breakfast in the hotel as that is served in the basement and I am not into that.
The price for the room was very acceptable.
I wouldn’t consider this a 4 star hotel, but rather a regular three star one.
It’s close to my customer, so from thet perspective it was convenient. But I’d prefer to select another place on my next business trip.

Our best regards from Barcelona, enjoy the city on your next visits. It is wonderful!

To start with the positives, the staff were generally welcoming, professional and polite, Ali on reception assisted with printing our return boarding passes and Cristian in the bar was hardworking.
Another receptionist recommended a nearby restaurant that was pretty good.
The not so good: the website says there is parking on site but there was no mention of a fee so we were surprised to be told upon arrival that parking was €28 a night! Secondly there is no lift from the car park to the lobby so it was a struggle with cases up 2 flights of stairs (TBF, we were partly assisted on arrival but not departure).
The hotel itself was adequate, a little tired and could do with some modernising but it was clean.
My wife was a little concerned about a chipped toilet seat in our room but the shower pressure was fantastic!
My biggest gripe was that our room (201) was directly next to the maid’s cupboard and for the first 2 mornings, we were woken around 8am by shouting, screaming & laughter as they went about their work!
After the 2nd time I spoke with reception and it didn’t happen again, however, the room doors appear to have no acoustic quality whatsoever as we heard numerous hotel guests throughout the night as they came & went, it certainly wasn’t very relaxing.
I would definitely recommend asking for a room as far away from the maid’s cupboard & lift lobby, as possible.

This is a great luxury hotel. The rooms are huge compared to other Spanish hotels, and all rooms have a large chair to sit in. The room contained a minibar, but there was room for a waterbottle or two. The bathrooms were the best part. There was a glass-doored shower and a whirlpool jet bath for your use. The shower, however, overflows after a certain amount of time. The bathtub was relaxing after a long walk in Barcelona. The food was very good, including the breakfast buffet in the morning. There is an oven in the restaurant area that allows the eaters to watch and smell the rolls baking. The one thing that keeps this hotel from being 5 star is the service. Don't put out the do not disturb sign, they don't even care, they will still clean the room. The people at the front desk are very rude to you if you have a problem at the hotel. Also, the hotel has internet access, but it's an absurd price. 2 euros for 10 minutes. Overall a great experience.
