The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were luxurious and well-equipped, but the noise level was a concern. The service was exceptional and accommodating, offering valuable assistance. The location was convenient for exploring the city, but some facilities did not meet expectations.

The hotel truly made us feel at home with its cozy and accommodating rooms. While not overly spacious, they were perfectly adequate and equipped with many amenities to meet our needs.

I had an amazing stay at the hotel. The rooms were fantastic, so comfortable and included everything I needed. The service was top-notch, very accommodating and always going the extra mile to ensure I was happy. The location was perfect for exploring the city. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown, but overall, I had a great time.
The hotel is not living up to its 5-star label. The rooms were in need of a bit of a refresh, especially considering the smallest size and noise level from outside. However, the service was impeccable with nothing being too much trouble, and the overall hotel experience was fabulous. The location was excellent, close to high-end shopping streets and local cafes, but there were areas reserved for paying guests only. The dining options were lacking in variety and quality, not justifying the hotel's pricing.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, while a bit on the small side compared to US hotels, were beautifully designed, quiet, and manageable. However, the breakfast room felt more like a nightclub than a relaxing space for a meal.
The hotel offers spacious and well-appointed rooms, albeit a bit dark, with incredible service from top to bottom. The location is very good, close to amenities but with a need for a slight redesign. The dining experience is a mix of positives and negatives, and the facilities are adequate.
The hotel has a great location near many attractions in Barcelona and feels safe and characterful. While the dining experience may not be worth the additional cost, the rooms are lovely and spacious, albeit a bit dark and cold upon arrival.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, though not as spacious as depicted online, were adequate for our needs. The service from the staff, especially Antonio, was exceptional, but the lack of proper window coverings was an issue. The location was excellent, with easy access to metro lines, but some areas felt below the hotel's standard. The dining experience, while tasty, took place in a windowless basement. Overall, a decent stay with highs and lows.
The hotel had lovely and big rooms, very comfortable and nice, with a classical touch to match the building's architecture. The reservation and payment process was smooth, and the room, though small, was aesthetic and comfortable with a nice balcony that the reception opened at our request.
