Reviews that mention pool
Write a reviewWe stayed here for 3 nights in March, we found the hotel quite difficult to find initially, and once we got there we found the receptionist to be quite rude as we were waiting around for a while. However, we didn't see her for the rest of the trip and was greeted by friendlier faces. Once we got the key to the room, we had a bit of difficulty actually opening the door as we couldn't figure out how it worked!
Eurostar Angli is a good hotel in a quiet location away from the busyness and touristy city centre. The metro was about 10 minutes walk away, and easily accessible. The metro was very frequent so travelling around would not be a problem. However, we did have a problem with the ticket machine and how our journey was being measured so we ended up spending more on tickets than anticipated.
We managed to get this hotel at a very good price at less than 45 euros per night, and were pleased with the value. One of the facilities, the pool, was too cold to use and very small. It was a pleasant stay. The rooms were modern and clean and the bed was HUGE. A nice hotel, with good restaurants and bars nearby, however we wouldn't return mainly due to the location.

Improve the internet connection and give free parking for clients. The reception staff were wonderful and very helpful. The swiming pool is small. The location is quite although it was close to the railway. The doors make noise when they close. overall it was a good stay and I advice people who are visitng Barca. and like to be away from the center to stay there.

I took a chance on this hotel as I could not find a single review on the web.
I was not disappointed at all.
It reminded me much of the Hilton hotel at Paris la Defense in France: ultra modern style, minimalist, high tech [ centralized light control, flat screen, room key on a chip-card, free high speed internet in the rooms ].
I would definitely stay here again specially given the rate I paid this weekend: 95 Euros a night. This must have been a special as the rates jump up to 210 Euros on Monday.
Pros:
- Quiet neighborhood
- Unmarked hotel in a residential area
- Free parking on side streets: there is available underground parking at the hotel but costs 9 Euros a night
- Convenient to Metro station: 3 blocks away
- Good size room with queen size bed
- Great lighting in the room
- Large shower: rectangular shape
- Safe that can hold a 15" laptop easily
- Housekeeping that works on spanish working hours: no house keeping nazi crew pounding on your door at 7:30 AM!!!
- Very very friendly staff: we checked in and the internet did not work. They had the problem resolved immediately. They had us change rooms after checking the wiring, my laptop, etc. Good follow up. Little detail: they had a staff person send the new room key. Try that at a Marriott hotel in France: they'd have you check back in at reception without hesitation!
- Safe area: a coworker lives 700 meters from hotel and vouched for it
Cons:
- Quite a distance from the touristy spots: if you want to be within walking distance of tourist attractions or restaurants, you will be disappointed. However, everything is a train ride away.
- There does not seem to be a heating system in the room: amazingly this weekend was very cold in Barcelona. The A/C works VERY well. It is odd as it was super warm in the corridors
- Sound proofing in the rooms is dismal. You can hear people talking in the corridors easily.
- Housekeeping may show up at your room around 17:00 on a Sunday. They do not seem to be in any rush to get done early.
- No view whatsoever
N/A:
- We did not try the restaurant, swimming pool, or bar.
I stayed at 3 hotels in Barcelona. My rankings:
1. Grand Marina: the view, the location on the water, the quality of the rooms, the gym, the robocop housekeeping. The downside is the price: expensive rooms, expensive on-site dining, expensive internet, expensive parking if you drive to Barcelona. If price were not an issue, Grand Marina would be my choice.
2. Eurostars Angli: it sometimes feels good to be in a small hotel with few rooms.
3. Intercontinental Princesa Sofia: old style, old building, no view but walking distance to a FC Barcelona game, to nice parks, to shopping, etc. Tends to have a young crowd in the neighborhood as it is in the universities area.

The hotel rooms are modern, but without feeling cheap, and there is none of that 'fashion over function' stuff that makes it hard to work out how to switch the lights on!
Breakfast was great- fresh juices, fruit, cereal, breads, pastries, ham, cheese etc- a really good selection.
The swimming pool gets the sun all day and there were plenty of sunbeds.
Location-wise, the hotel is in Sarria, which is about 3 stops from plaza catalunya on the metro. The positive side of this, is that you are in a MUCH quieter area for sleeping, and you get a lot more hotel for your money. I know Barcelona very well, and some of my favourite restaurants are within a 10-15 min walk from here, so there is really no need to go into town every evening for the tourist rip off places!
Check out these for dinner-
La Burg (gourmet burgers in sarria)
Vivanda (spanish/catalan in sarria)
Tram Tram (posh spanish catalan in sarria)
Gouthier (specialises in oysters but loads more tapas, in sarria)
Dos Torres (spanish, halfway between sarria + tres torres)
Acontraluz (spanish, as above)
Hope this helps- and if you want a great late bar/ club to go to, Elephant is great. Amazing terrace, gets busy from 11.30...

Angli is clean, modern and relaxing. It feels spacious and cool, even when it's over 30 degrees Celsius outside, and the outdoor pool area is very good. The hotel is really attractive from the outside and even better inside. Breakfast was good and staff were very friendly and very helpful. The rooms were a good size and very well decorated (apart from a horribly over-edited photo of a flower on the glass), and the bed was huge and pretty comfortable. Didn't try room service but the menu looked great, and free pastries were left on the front desk almost every day! On one night (around 4am) there was a blackout in the rooms but it was resolved quickly. Only two minor qualms: blind controls didn't do what the buttons said, and the climate control seemed to stop working a few days in. Overall this was a great hotel, and I would definitely stay again.
