Just average more 3 star than 4
Invalid Date
Just very average for a 4 star hotel Feels like a 3 star Roof top bar is tiny needs some modernisation, always found staff really friendly up there. Nice views We had a room overlooking peoples flats, balconies and laundry at back… not the best view and people were playing their music really late at night. Also can hear everything through walls and the doors are noisy when shut Didn’t help we were near lifts and the bell ringing constantly Wouldn’t give us a late checkout even for an hour. Very unhelpful about this Didn’t like area hotel was in. Not the best. Breakfast was good. There is better hotels

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! Front desk staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful. Great air conditioning and clean rooms. There is some noise from the street but that can be expected in a city. Wonderful breakfast in the morning. Great location for cruise passengers and access to metro and train and walking to La Rambla and Gothic Quarter. We loved using the rooftop area and had drinks and ordered food from the restaurant which was very good! Would definitely stay here again! Thanks for your hospitality!

We enjoyed a fantastic 3 night stay here.Our room 817 was extremely comfortable and well maintained.Located at the back of the hotel it was very quiet and had great views over the rooftops of Barcelona.All the staff we encountered from front desk to housekeeping couldn’t have been any more professional and friendly.Breakfast at the Wolf Tavern was very good.The hotel is very well positioned with a 15 minute stroll down to the harbour area and a similar walk to Las Ramblas.If I could award it 6 stars I would.
