Austere Modern feel but still a pleasant place to stay and eat.

We arrived in the free shuttle from the airport very easily and our return to the airport via reserved shuttle the next morning worked flawlessly as well. . Our room was a bit stark but comfortable and very well insulated sound wise. The shower was the best we have encountered in a hotel. The reception was very good and English was automatic. The food and drink were a bit higher than expected cost wise. The only real flaw was the hot food on the expansive and elaborate breakfast buffet was stone cold because although it was in chafing dishes, there was no heat under the chafers so the scrambled and fried eggs were stone cold and the bacon and sausage were not hot enough to be served. Given that we were among the first to try the buffet at 7 AM, I can't imagine what later diners would encounter. I mentioned this flaw to the reception desk upon leaving and can only hope they rectified this problem.

Hotel reception was very welcoming and our first impression of the hotel was very good, modern and clean. The bedroom had great facilities, clean and well maintained. Food was very good, especially the excellent buffet breakfast. Ryan was particularly helpful to us finding and booking our restaurants and attractions during our stay. Would recommend and return to this hotel again.

Dear Michael,
Thank you for such a great review.

Your words have painted a masterpiece of a stay that would make any local artist envious! It's wonderful to hear that our hotel's modern charm and cleanliness caught your eye from the get-go. Cheers to the excellent buffet breakfast that kicked off your days on a high note. Very thanks for appreciating Ryan's great work, it makes clear our intention to always offer the best service to our customers!

At the same time, thank you for letting us know that you would recommend our little haven of tranquility and artistry; it's music to our ears!

We look forward to welcoming you back on a future occasion.
Best wishes,

I had a very simple query about this hotel when booking, so I sent an email but no response that day. So I rang the UK number which seems automated and did not understand my query. I rang the Spanish number and was told the Loft in this hotel does not have a separate living area, so I had to book the more expensive townhouse. Then I get an email today to my original query to contradict that saying the Loft does in fact have two rooms. Beware the customer service at this hotel appears to be non-existent. I had booked non refundable given the more expensive townhouse booking, so I just hope the hotel customer service is better when we arrive. Very disappointing.

Dear Guest,

Thank you for taking the time to share your point of view.

We apologize for any confusion caused during the reservation process. We are looking into our communication channels to ensure they're sharp and there are no language barriers in regards to the description of the rooms.
It only saddens me that just yesterday I received your mail about this issue and answered you inmediately with several solutions that would mend the situation and apparently we still aren´t able to reach your expectations.

Nevertheless we hope you enjoy your stay among us once you are here.

Kind regards,


Belén Sánchez, Guest Relations Manager

I can’t tell you more this is not a hotel to stay in
The location is in a grimmy area
The hotel has had a renovation, not sure what that means white paint and new sheets
Check in was unfriendly and we were allocated a disabled room so we returned to the lobby to be told we are full and can only give you a twin room two floors further down with road noise (we shouldn’t have bothered asking) and at check in a mini bus of airline hostesses arrived to be allocated all the queen beds at special corporate rates woohoo! We paid more than €250
Let’s get back to the noise, this place is a tent I would rather stay at a hostel
The noise from the road side, the hall way when every room enters and exits not just your neighbour the whole corridor
The cleaners brought the trollley through at 6am but they were also there vacuuming at 5pm same day, so siesta must be 3/4 hours I’m guessing
And you can hear everyone above beside and around you including their plumbing not to mention the party of 4 guests that got home at 4am and didn’t stop until close to 7am
I called down to reception but of course they did f*** all
The cleaning is far from adequate and I kept my shoes on as the floor is tacky
The bathroom has marks and grime everywhere
Just go elsewhere, Barcelona has got more expensive hotel wise but if you value sleep do your research from slim pickings

Very smart contemporary hotel. Staff were very friendly, helpful and approachable.
Location from airport about 30 minutes was ideal for a first time visit.
Room/suite was clean comfortable and provided with free water and juice drinks.
Location to La Rambla and sea front etc was great all being within walking distance.
Stayed for bed and breakfast which was ideal and adequate.

Fantastic place overall. Great location and staff. Ryan on front desk assisted with amazing restaurants and rooftop bar suggestions. Also helped with transport when taxis on strike. Very well spoken and engaging . Hotel breakfast was really good addition as well.
