Excellent hotel. Location is "gritty" but local. Take usual Barcelona precautions with Pickpockets. Avoid La Rambala rip-off bars, especially "Seventy"

Dear guest,
Thank you very much for your kind feedback.
We are thrilled to hear that you found our hotel to be of 5-star quality.
However, your safety is our priority, and we always encourage our guests to take the necessary precautions when exploring the city. We regret that aspects of the local area did not entirely meet your expectations. Furthermore, we understand that La Rambla can be overwhelming, and we suggest our guests visit the many other authentic local establishments we are fortunate to have nearby.
Nonetheless, we are pleased that you appreciated the genuine local atmosphere around our hotel. Our location offers an authentic Barcelona experience, immersed in the vibrant culture of the city and close proximity to iconic landmarks such as the Boquería food market and the Liceu theatre.
We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable experience.
Best wishes,
Gabrielly Lacey

Rooms are small but functional, could do with a bit of modernisation. Area is a bit rough, got pick pocketed right outside the doors, lots of groups of loud lads around, didn’t feel relaxed. Very noisy through the night, sound proofing is non existent. Staff were great and communal area’s, with exception of the roof bar were lovely

Dear Daniel,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the unique design of our hotel and appreciated the stunning views from our rooftop 360 terrace. Our terrace is indeed a highlight for many guests, offering panoramic views of the city and a relaxing atmosphere.
However, we apologize if the location did not meet your expectations. Our hotel is situated near the famous Ramblas and close to landmarks such as Plaza Catalonia, the Liceu theatre, the famous Boquería food market, and the Cathedral.
Additionally, we are only 100 meters away from public transport options, making it convenient for our guests to explore the city. We hope that you were able to visit some of these attractions during your stay.
We hope that you will allow us the opportunity of providing you with an improved stay in the future.
Best regards,
Gabrielly Lacey

Its close to the beach, walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Taxes are avaliable all the time, and the hotel is nice in all ways.

One should be aware that this hotel resides in the highest crime rate neighborhood in Barcelona. People warn of pickpockets, but the reality is IV drug use is rampant at any time of day or night. It reminds me of certain areas of San Francisco or Oakland, CA. We saw overdoses, people lying passed out on the street, police helicopters circling, groups of people helping each other shoot up, all in broad daylight. The quaint narrow streets and old architecture is universally marred by graffiti, and smell of urine and worse. There is a heavy police presence, and sirens and foot chases are common. Be aware that this is what you are getting into. Once inside the hotel it is very safe feeling and I never had any issues there, but be aware the outside is another story.
