Great location, friendly staff, fantastic balcony views!!

Reviewed Feb 5, 2020
Super little hotel in the heart of Barcelona, just a 10 minute walk from La Ramblas. Our comfortable room on the sixth floor was huge, with a fantastic balcony providing views over the distant Segrada Familia. Staff were very welcoming. Secure underground parking was a block away and available at a discount. Plenty of nice local bars/restaurants if you don't want to walk into the main town. (Recommend "Brunch" for breakfast!)

The Calendonia was a perfect base for our two day stay and I highly recommend it. The only thing missing was tea/coffee making facilities in the room, although the mini-bar was a nice touch and reasonably priced.
Date of stay: September 2019
Room Tip: Go for the highest floor and ask for a balcony!

Arrived late. Great greeting from reception staff. Lovely room on 5th floor with a terrace and a distant view of Gaudi’s masterpiece the Sagrada Familia.

Good size room with comfortable bed.
Bathroom a bit dated but everything worked perfectly. Very well cleaned accommodation.

Great selection at breakfast.

Barcelona a is a walking city and the hotel is ideally situated to explore the city.
Are the airport bus and the hotel is just 3 stops away at a mere €5.90 each way or a reduced price return.
Super staff and a very comfortable stay.

It is what it is. An average Hotel in a great location. It was cheap and that's why I purchased. Was in single room on 5th floor. When occupant above me used their toilet and shower facilities, I thought the ensuing noise of falling, gushing water was actually coming down the inside of my walls , it was so loud. Fortunately it was just the pipes within the walls. Anyway, I spent so little time in the hotel I wasn't concerned. Would book again if the rates were the same.

Be a 3 stars hotel I give it 5 stars! :-) Perfect location. Metro nearby, bus station in front of hotel. Breakfast - good. Room cleaning - very good. Room - we had to the street, very noisy but if you close the windows perfect silence, but we preferred it for the view. If you need something buy from Express, over the street, better quality and good price. To "Placa d'Espania", 3 or 4 buses take from the station over the street, only 4 stops.. To Sagrada take metro from "Placa Universitat", L2, only 4 stops. To Rambla, walking, only 500 m. If you looking for shopping go to Diagonal Mar, with bus no. 7 to "Forum". Last station, you will see it on the right, a few meters away. A great shopping center. There is a great beach! More beautiful than Barceloneta. And too not forget, from 16th of September the internet is great. 5G! Very fast! Don't think about TV! This is not good, but you are in Barcelona, you don't need TV! :-)

The hotel was fine for a tourist who wants the hotel just to sleep and spend all his time roaming the city. The location is excellent close to the Metro station and Las Ramblas. It is a walking distance, and very convenient. The room is small but this is the case in almost all Barcelona hotels. The breakfast is yummy and specially the scrambled egg. Their bread is nice.
I had one issue with my room which is the safe. there is a safe in the room but in order to use it, you should pay 4 Euros per night!! I found this very weird and quite unpleasant. so if you are staying 2 nights you pay 8 euros if you want to keep your passport and money in the safe!!

Room tip: Excellent location, Highly recommended
