Onix Liceo Hotel, Barcelona

Reviewed Sep 22, 2023
The hotel is situated in a run down area of Barcelona with boarded up houses, graffiti on the walls and people sleeping rough in doorways. The hotel was extremely basic and unattractive. The rooms were poorly furnished with small thin towels and a sliver of soap. This would only compare with the cheapest hostel with no redeeming features. A very mean hotel with no redeeming qualities.
Date of stay: August 2023
Room Tip: Not a safe area to walk around with boarded up properties, graffiti and rough sleepers in doorways.
Trip type: Travelled with family

We're sorry to hear about your negative experience. However, we disagree regarding our beloved Raval neighborhood. We understand it may not be the most attractive neighborhood in the city, but we don't believe it is as you describe it. Our hotel is situated in front of the historic Palau Güell, a magnificent example of domestic architecture within the context of modernism.

Nevertheless, we apologize that it did not meet your expectations, and your suggestions will be taken into account to improve our guests' experience."

This hotel is excellent. The location perfect for walking everywhere in central Barcelona even to the beach and Sagrada Familia. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming. We received a superb service from the lovely staff on the front desk, house keeping and breakfast team. The rooms are very comfortable and the pool is a bonus on hot days. Would highly recommend in terms of value and overall experience. Than you!

The hotel itself is lovely. It is updated and clean. It is in a very good location that is walking distance to several stores and restaurants. The street in front is very busy with pedestrians and there is some litter thrown about, but I found this was true for most of Barcelona. We stayed for only one night and it served its purpose.

Room tip: There is a specific garage for you to park in. You need to get a key from the front desk to park.

Wonderful hotel with great staff in a great location. Very clean! The terras was great. Especially to rest before and after dinner. A bit noisy but all the rest was so good it didn’t bother us. Lot’s of great restaurants in the area. El Raval is great and vibrant.

The hotel is lovely, well clean, and the rooms themselves are great. The staff is phenomenal: everyone is super helpful and friendly, definitely the biggest highlight in my opinion.
Location wise, it's right next to Palau Guell and La Rambla, so it's right in the center of the city and close to everything you need.
However, the sound isolation in the hotel is very poor, and you can hear everything the other guests are doing at any point. So if you are a light sleeper or easily bothered by noise, this might be an issue.
Everything else is great, the price/quality ratio is very good overall. Recommended, but keep the sound thing in mind.
