Poor wifi

Review of Hotel Viladomat
Reviewed Apr 26, 2024
Unfortunately the wifi in the hotel worked very sporadically and we found it very frustrating. Beds were comfortable and our room was spacious. We found the hotel to be very quiet which was nice. Breakfast was adequate and the croissants were delicious!

They say you get what you pay for and whilst Hotel Viladomat might be considered budget. I've stayed in better budget hotel chain in the UK and central europe that offered more than Viladomat did. The location is great as its pretty central and close to Bus an tube links. If you'e just looking for somewhere to crash and leave your bags then maybe this i"Hotel" is for you. But for a family of three who'd booked two rooms it felt a bit like we were being ripped off. There are no tea making facilties in the rooms you have t go down to the rather uninviting lounge area which feels more like a college empty cafteria. It has a bar which isnt a bar because they don't serve drinks. You can get breakfast in the mornings but we didn't we bought some food from a locla super market as we were only there for four days. There are also quite a few cafes close to the hotet if you want to get your own breakfast all reasonably priced.
The hotel - some were very helpful and welcoming others were exceedingly unhelpful and in come cases very stand offish. Its called a hotel and they do have other sites but it was more like a glorified hostel than hotel. And even in a hostel you can get complimentary tea coffee and water. Viladomat you have to pay and its from a dispensing machine.
If we'd been staying longer we would have left and asked the holiday company for out money back as its misrepresenting itself as there is an inference that this Hotel offers more than you actually get and its not an unreasonable interpritation from a prospective guest.

You could see the wear and tear in our room the bidet was cracked and there was chipped tiles. Our room becsue wanted a double bed not two singles placed together was on the small side with little light as it onlu had one very small window.
Access to electrical points was poor only on one side of the bed. Given that these days most people have electronic devices phones, watches, air pods, tablets, etc and if you're a couple you'd want to be able to charge up and place your items on the bedside cabinet. But one of you will have to run a cable from the opposite wall to the bed. There was no draw space and no suite case rack Very few coat hangers given that there were two of us

Even if you wanted to relax in the lounge area becuase it looks and feels so uninviting and more like a college cafe we didn't. Nothing was really explained to us when w checked in except making sure we paid the tax.

On the plus side the rooms were clean.
It was centrally located and there were plenty of cabs that you can hail (freenow)
On the first day not long after we'd landed we took a took took ride aroud the city which was great to get your bearings, see the sights in general take pictures
We went to the Picasso Musem a must but do book in advance and note that the museum is closed on a Monday.
We took a ride on the Mountjuic Cable car (becareful there are two cable cars) - the Monjtuic one is a seated ride, the other one you have to stand.
We didnt pay to go into the castle at the top we just strolled a little way around the grounds.
We also took a cab to the beach even though it was a rainy day (our last) just for the view and a change of scenery.
We didnt pay to go into Sagarda Familia on advice from friends who been before they said it wasn't worth the entry price circa 30-40 euros pp. We just looked from the front and took pictures.
We fond some great places to eat including Indian Bambi but the greates find was My Way in the centre a restaurant/bar which was just a real delight and extrnely good value for money.

Like I said we've stayed in budget hotel chains that offer more and cost less for the equivalent three nights.
When we return, which we will do for longer; if we stay in the city we'd like to stay in the same area but we'll be booking into a hotel that has room service, a bar and a restaurant. Yes it will cost more but in the long run it will be worth it.

The hotel is in a good location of Barcelona. 5 minute walk from the local train station if your looking to exploring the city for the day!
We did arrive late at night, but the man on reception was very helpful and answered questions which we had about the room!
Our room was very spacious and no issues at all, cleaners came everyday and we was very happy with the service.
The hotel is not far from the hospital, so this because quite noisy in the nights but not too much!
Overall a great stay and would happily come back

The hotel was clean. The rooms were cleaned each day and fresh towels were given. Breakfast was daily. It was cold cheese & meats, Spanish omelette(cold), eggs, beans, and various muffins. There was options for cafe con leche and narajano. The one thing I did not like was the construction noise heard each morning across the street. This was very annoying to hear each morning. Other than that, the location was okay. There was a coffee shop also across the street and a pharmacy within walking distance. It was a short walk to the metro/bus stops.

We stayed there to get in and out of Barcelona on 2 separate days. This hotel is located very close to the Train Station and the many places of interest. The rooms were clean and facilities were good. Wifi, however was very poor on the higher floors, the elevators were not working well during our stay. Front desk staff were very helpful and pleasant to deal with, especially when we requested for an iron. Overall we would recommend this hotel as a good place for a couple of nights.
