Hotel 1898 is a must stay!

Review of Hotel 1898
Reviewed May 11, 2022
My wife and I visited our son who was studying in Barcelona for the semester and this hotel is a ‘must stay’! The indoor pool ‘grotto’ with steam room and sauna was an amazing way to start each day! ( There is also a rooftop pool and bar when the weather is warmer) We had a deluxe room with a king bed and a friend of Rambla. It’s location is great and you can walk to shopping, dining, Gothic area, the Born and the local Bacqueria/Outside market, marina and much more! The lobby and lobby bar are very comfortable and the restaurant on the second floor looked great, but we did not have a chance to dine there. I would recommend the Hotel 1898 to anyone visiting Barcelona

beautiful, fantastic hotel with a great location. A big advantage is the fact that the hotel provides parking. additionally it has a wonderful terrace overlooking the rooftops of Barcelona. On the terrace, there is a swimming pool and a nice bar. Very good service. Breakfasts fine.

Lovely hotel situated in the heart of Barcelona. The front of the hotel is on Las Ramblas, a stones throw from the Place de la Catalunya the location is perfect for those short on time but want to experience everything Barcelona has to offer. The hotel is beautiful… roomy bedrooms with good facilities, my husband said one of the best he has ever stayed in… the food is delicious and very reasonably priced. The hidden gem is the spa… visit after the afternoon rush in the early evening when other guests are getting ready to go for dinner for the most relaxing experience. All in all a wonderfully pleasurable stay. Will return!

Room tip: The hotel is on the busy Las Ramblas… so it can be very busy outside but inside… a haven of peace and tranquillity.

WOW! WOW! WOW! You should stay at Hotel-1898
Beautiful hotel, perfectly maintained. Staff and facilities exceeded all expectations. Comfortable beds (best I've ever experienced), stunning rooms, ideally located on La Rambla with a taxi stop outside the front door. Barman was world-class. Reception staff were super accommodating and helpful, beyond expectation. Stunning spa and pool facilities.

Extraordinary stay with memorable experience. Wonderful clean product located right on La Ramblas. Outstanding service from courteous staff ever eager to be accommodating to any request, felt as if hosted in a private home.
Rooftop terrace with outdoor pool with relaxing atmosphere and a bar to help relax! Was slightly chilly weather so used the wonderful spa located on Level -1 which had a sauna, steam and a heated pool with jets to help massage the muscles after a days sight-seeing.
Very varied delicious breakfast on the first floor with a view of the hustle, bustle of tourists along the Ramblas but being a million miles away.
Can not recommend it enough and hope to return on our next visit to a iconic city.

Room tip: We had rooms on the 4th and 5th Floor and both were good with no disturbances
