Hotels in Barcelona are generally expensive, but this hotel is located at very nice area, has good staff, and warm hospitality.
We stayed this hotel for two nights before our European cruise. We arrived there about 2:00 pm and they let us early check in. All hotel staff were very friendly and professional, especially Adam who gave us a hotel tour and helped us to find a good restaurant around there.
There are so many good sightseeing places within walking distance; Palace of Catalan Music (4 minutes walk), Barcelona Cathedral (5 mins), Parc de la Ciutadella (13 mins), Casa Batlló (15 mins), Casa Milà (22 mins), Palau Güell (13 mins), Passeig de Gracia, Mercat de la Boqueria (10 mins), Las Ramblas, Gothic Quarter, etc... Even though we took a taxi to Sagrada Familia, it takes 35 minutes by walking. The closest sightseeing spot, I believe, is Palace of Catalan Music ( only 4 minutes by walking) and a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Their complimentary breakfast buffet was very good and I enjoyed their omelet. We ate dinner at two restaurants; 4 Gats (2 minutes walk) and RAÓ Restaurant (8 mins). Both restaurants were excellent.
We will go back to Barcelona and stay this hotel for sure !
