To be on the Ramblas is the best thing to do and for the price I got, it was weel worth it as location is steps from Metro, on the street accessible to taxis and they have parking close by available although not used it. Literally you are within steps of anything and everything from food to shopping and entertainment. It is also 30 min walk from the beach which the walk itself is a pleasure.

The hotel is unique with that the reception is at the far end of the entrance to it with a huge lobby/courtyard area with simple but comfortable bamboo seating. There is history everywhere and shows in deace looking walls, paintings and some antiques scattered around. But the club of it all is that the reception is not in your face and you don't have to go through it to get to your elevators or any other part. This is very unique and gave me a special relaxed atmosphere. Security is very out of sight and again very convenient.

The rooms are very comfortable fr beds and pillows which are super to the bathroom that is big although may need to have some kind of extractor fan which did not exist in ours. Noise levels in this noisy area are very acceptable as balcony doors are sound proof to a good standard. Ros are kept super clean.

The staff are very nice and genuinely relaxed which tells a lot about behind the scenes management team. Kudos to them.

If u would look for any negatives, I would say a coffee tray in ro and mini fridge would have helped.

All in all. A great two week stay.

We booked a quadruple room for 4 nights. The room & beds are not what the photos showed. The big bottles of shampoo & bath soup were taken away from us after the first night and were replaced by 3 small bottles for 4 persons! We asked for more but were given various combinations (leftovers?) No fridge, no kettle. The cost is very expensive for a 3-star hotel!

We stayed at the hotel for 20 nights. Metro Sation and Bus Stop are really near to the hotel.

The Ramblas Deluxe room has a nice view of the Ramblas, but the street noise filters all the way up. (Their windows don't work well canceling the noise). Although we booked a king bed, we got 2 twin beds put together, which made sleeping uncomfortable. The metro shaking/vibrating of the room didn't help much either.

If traveling in summer, you must know that the air conditioning doesn't work very well and the room won't keep cool or you won't be able to put the temperature you want. The magnetic cards stop working every 4 days, and it was a pain getting new ones.

The staff, in general, is very friendly but some of them need more training.
