Superb customer service from start to finish- from my email contact before we stayed regarding my partners birthday, luggage storage (as our flight arrived before check in) and the best way to travel to the hotel from the airport, to all our encounters once at the hotel.
Getting to the hotel from Barcelona airport was very easy via our chosen option- the airport bus- with the late morning traffic this took around 35/40 mins to the last stop on the line- Plaza Catalunya- with the hotel a 4 or 5 minute walk.
We arrived prior to check in, however were able to leave our luggage and given a map and great advice of where to go by the concierge (whose name I did not catch- I am sorry!) as it was our first trip. The welcome drinks were also a lovely touch on arrival.
The hotel’s location is fantastic and central for so many of the main attractions of Barcelona- many within walking distance. We did a lot of walking, but the metro and buses are conveniently located and we can recommend the city bus tour for a great way to see as much of Barcelona, especially if you are only there a few days.
The hotel itself was lovely, modern and sympathetically decorated making the most of the traditional features of the building. The room was well appointed- cool and crisp white decor, with complimentary water, and a birthday package for my partners birthday when we arrived, coffee machine, brilliant air con and lovely terrace balcony (which was as big as an additional room!) which overlooked the hotel terrace and wall gardens- it was lovely to come back to after a day exploring and quiet at night.
Great shower as well and Rituals toiletries provided (no bath- but this does not bother us).
There was a nice roof top terrace with a plunge pool and bar, which was a great location to have a drink, relax and enjoy the views and lovely weather. There were other nice small touches such as jars of sweets around the hotel.
Everyone we encountered at the hotel was friendly, happy and polite- and always willing to help us- we are already planning our next Barcelona trip and will definitely be returning to the hotel!
