Expected nothing from this hotel having read the mixed reviews. Chosen just for the location. Very pleasantly surprised. The hotel is in a perfect location for seeing the fantastic sights of Barcelona. The rooms are spacious with enormous bathrooms and very clean. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Asked for a quiet room and allocated one overlooking a side street on floor 3 with a balcony so we could look down to the Ramblas. Ok it wasn't very quiet but don't choose this location if you want peace and quiet. It is the centre of the city! We still managed to get a reasonable nights sleep. Booked breakfast as on a previous visit it was difficult to find anywhere open before 10am. Not so now. The breakfast was fine with plenty of choice, hot and cold buffet. However if we went again would skip breakfast as lots of places open to get coffee and a light snack. We didn't really do justice to the hotel breakfast. Yes it's the same everyday but there is plenty of choice. This hotel is really good value for money for a city break and I would definitely stay there again. I cannot understand why there are so many mixed reviews. Just one comment please put facial tissues in the bathroom.

Dear guest,
thank you so much for this beautiful review. We are very excited to know that we have exceeded your expectations and that you have enjoyed your stay with us. We appreciate a lot your nice words to our staff, and value your suggestion of improvement about the tissues in the bathroom, that certainly we will consider. Again thank you, and we will be hoping to see you again in a near future.
We had a small room, but at least it was clean. If you're going to book this hotel do make sure you get a room with a balcony, as the best bit was looking out over Las Ramblas at night, which provided lots of entertainment in the form of people watching, which was like watching street theatre. We didn't eat in the hotel at all, as it looked a bit uninspiring, but found good places just out of the centre. The room was expensive for what it was.

Don't let first impressions count. The reception area is a bit worn and drab but this hotel is 5 star when it comes to location. Situated right in the middle of Las Ramblas and equispaced between two Metro stations makes this hotel a perfect base for exploring Barcelona.
Rooms are more than adequate if not luxurious but contains everything you need except coffee and tea making facilities in some rooms. We were in 311, on the front face of the hotel overlooking Las Rambles, we honestly cannot say we heard much outside noise when balcony door was closed. Air condition worked and hot water was plentiful.
Just a couple of pointers - whilst breakfast is buffet style and more than plentiful the hot food could be a bit tepid.
Secondly the rooms are not numbered in sequence. Which is quirky but if you follow the signs outside the lifts and bear this fact in mind you WILL find your room.
Staff helpful, breakfast room airy and light. But it is the location that will sell this hotel to any city explorer

Dear Sue, Thank you very much for posting such a positive review and we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us. Such comments are the best reward for us and encourage us to continue with our very high standards of service. We would like to inform you that in our Deluxe Rooms there are available kettles for our costumer but you are right in standard room or Ramblas room we do not offer this service. We are thinking to extend to the rest ones. We will hope definitely to see you again in Oriente Atiram Hotel. Best regards The management

Beautiful hotel in the heart of La Ramblas. Room were spacious, well equipped with small balcony. Staff were friendly and assisted us with bookings and places to go. Perhaps skip the breakfast. Highly recommend.

We had the balcony room facing Las Ramblas. The view was amazing and exactly what we wanted! We slept great as we found no issue with having a room facing Las Ramblas. The breakfast buffet is very good and well worth the additional money.
There is a police station right next door.
Note that this hotel does not have air conditioning or fans in the room. This is the only issue I had with the hotel as a senior citizen.

Hola Nola!
Thanks a lot for your kind words! We really appreciate! Las Ramblas it's the greatest Street in Barcelona!
We have air conditioning in the rooms, but now they are in Winter mode, only with heat. As the Easter arrives, we use to change it into cool mode.
Would love to see you again!
Warm regards, Alejandro
