Hmmmm. Where to start.
Reception - 24 minutes to check in due to volumeof peope checking in and only 1 receptionist.
Room. Very tired. Chipped floors & furniture. On our arrival day there were 2 polo mints on the 3rd floor landing and they were still there 2 days later.
Matress was thin and I actually had springs sticking into me - At first I thought there was a stone in the bed but it was springs.
No tea/coffee facilities.
Dont bother with a balcony as there is no furniture on it so not usable.
Bathroom - mould on grout and cieling. Cracked tiles, rusty taps. Thin towels.
Location - Great central location to explore but this came with problems.
The Irish Bar 2 doors down kicks out ay 2am. The nighclub beneath the hotel opens at midnight until 6am. If you want a good night sleep - don't go here. Fri and Sat had noise from people in the street all night until 6am - and then an hour later the bottle's get emptied from the pubs.
We hoped for a better sunday night but this was even worse with noise all night including yelling and a huge police presence at 5.30am.
I appreciate that what happens outside is not the fault of the hotel but there is no double glazing and our window pain was cracked.
On the positive- the contenental breakfast was adequate and the bathroom had plenty of hot water - but thats it.
This place is in serious need of refurbishment and I would class it as 2* rather than 3

After reading reviews was a little uneasy as to what to expect. But I can honestly say we had a fabulous time at Ramblas Hotel. A warm welcome by the lady in reception. On entering room (606) I was pleasantly surprised. A large, freshly decorated room with a view looking out over La Rambla. Great size bathroom, TV, small fridge and safe. Only drawback and that’s why I’ve only given 4/5 is that there are no tea and coffee making facilities, but I was aware of this so had taken my own.

Breakfast was continental, but a great choice of cereals, yogurt, fruit, breads and pastries as well as meat and cheese. Freshly squeezed orange juice (no pretend stuff here, you can see it being prepared as you eat. Staff are constantly cleaning the breakfast room. Never saw them standing still.

Hotel is very clean and is currently being decorated. Great location

Great bar just out side Cafe Gran Ramblas. Looks a little lonely as it doesn’t have the bells and whistles of some of the street side bars, but really well priced. Cocktails €8.40 Meals varied in price but really competitive.

Yes it can be noisy as mentioned in other reviews, but it’s a main tourist area, so what do you expect.

On leaving they have a luggage room. You are given a keycard and inside the rooms there are lockers which take €2. You can easily get two carry on cases and a couple of back packs in them.

Beautiful hotel and we hope to go back
