Good stay The hotel is located about 10 minutes walk from Placa Catalunya and the Ramblas. The area was quiet when we stayed and its just far enough away from the hoardes of people around the main touristy areas. The hotel is modern in style, all white and wood and all the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. I had only had a couple of minor points, which had they not been there it would have been excellent. More on them further down.
Just a couple of points that might be helpful. The hotel charge €0.01 to a card at check-in for any incidentals.
We got the Aerobus from T2 to the city. It only took about 20 minutes and cost €10 return each.
The room we were in faced the front and had a small balcony, just wide enough to stand on. It had an entrance vestibule with the basin and wardrobe and the bathroom was off here. The bedroom had its own door and had plenty of space. There was a well stocked minibar with branded soft drinks, beers, wine and champagne. The bed was very big and comfy there was plenty of pillows.
The minor points I mentioned were the radiator in the bathroom being permanently on, which made the bathroom really warm especially when the shower was on. The knob to turn it down didn't seem to make a difference.
The air-con control panel was a waste of time. I think it's one of those ones that's there to satisfy our requirement to be in control, when in fact it does absolutely nothing. My guess is that during the slightly colder months they control it centrally to save money.
Would recommend this hotel, we had a really enjoyable stay.

We have stay in this hotel 3 nights and everything was perfect. Beginning by the front office and a very nice welcome. The room 222 was absolutely perfect and the housekeeping team and the minibar team help a lot to keep those rooms wonderful! We had the the chance to discover a fresh breakfast we a very nice team ( especially Angel ) and original ideas like the fresh smoothies! The bar/restaurant was very nice with many choices and an amazing team with Mihail and his sudamerican colleague (I don't remember her name). Also a perfect location just in the middle of the coast, plaça Catalunya and the arc de trionf! I will return as soon as possible in this hotel!

It is in general a good hotel, but the rooms are not so good insulated from outside and adjacent rooms. You might experience noise from outside. But that is mainly at daytimes and not at nighttime. The rooms itself are nice, clean and not small with a good air condition.

HORRIBLY NASTILY DISGUSTINGLY LOUD - if you want to recall your youth in a cheap hostel, or the tank army barracks (my experience) - then come to this "nostalgic place" (sad nostalgic smile) - the traffic under your windows is HORRIBLE! SOUND ISOLATION - NON-EXISTANT! Trucks will start at 6am, motorbikes and scooters - around 7:30am. Good luck trying to fall asleep ))))) UNBELIEVABLE! Avoid this hotel! (By the way, this is coming from a New Yorker, who used to live on 42nd Street (!), and also from someone who LOVES Spain and loves Barcelona, and had lots of amazing (To be fair: the rooms are new and nicely designed, the staff is polite, the hotel is perfectly located close to everything... but if you are woken up at 6am by horrible outside noises - does it matter???????????????)
Room tip: Horribly noisy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
