Delightful hideaway with a swank contemporary look near Casa Batllo
In a beautifully restored Art Deco building near Gaudi-designed Casa Batllo, Axel Hotel Barcelona is steps away from many Barcelona attractions. Stylish rooms feature a contemporary look and boast free Internet. The Kitchen Restaurant serves Italo-Mediterranean cuisine with Asian and North African touches. The colorful Ground Bar with an outdoor terrace is a trendy place to lounge over a cocktail. Visit the rooftop swimming pool, Jacuzzi and Sky Bar for panoramic city vistas or head to the Wellness Club 33 to find a fitness center, sauna and a spa.

GREAT central location!
The hotel was recommended by friends and turned out to be more than expected. Very close to the Barcelona Sant rail station, and walking distance to everything. My room balcony doors opened up onto the main street was nice. With the doors closed I heard almost zero noise. Bathroom was large with everything I needed. Overall a great stay!

Money-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
The main rail station for the Airport train, and outgoing train to Madrid is only about a mile walk and easy to find. Well worth the 15-20 minutes instead of the cost of a taxi. Save the money for a cocktail!

Hotel Axel
The hotel is in a great location near nightlife and the metro. One of the best features was the free cold bottled water on every floor. The rooftop was a fun place to hang out during the day and before going out in the evening. I will definitely stay at the Hotel Axel again.

Definitely recommend taking a day trip down to Sitges. It's easy to get to by train and well worth the 30 minute ride.

Great Hotel Choice
Just returned from a trip to Barcelona where I stayed at the Axel Hotel & Spa. This is a great hotel that is convenient for walking around best spots in downtown Barcelona. Easy to get to the Catalunya Square and to the best shopping locations. Loved the spa and Wellness Center that is part of the Axel and enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. Staff at the Axel are very friendly and helpful to those of us that need some help communicating with very limited Spanish speaking skills. I will definitely be back to stay at the Axel Hotel again!

Great hotel and amazing spa
This hotel is close to everything, the rooms are nice and modern, and the staff was very nice. Good place for couples, gay or straight. Even though the hotel is marketed to gay people, there were just as many straight couples staying there. I will always stay at Axel when I return to Barcelona.

A hotel I will go back to.
Great location, friendly staff, a quiet room both dark enough to sleep and bright enough to read in, and very clean. We walked to some of the liveliest places in the city.

My Home in Barcelona
From the moment of my arrival to the morning of my departure I found the staff in this hotel to be very welcoming, accomodating, friendly, and most helpful. To me this is very important wherever I stay. Axel is super modern, classy, spotlessly clean, and is in a superb location within easy walking distance of Las Ramblas, and some great bars are right in the neigborhood. I would not stay anywhere else in Barcelona. Just one suggestion: It would be nice to have an iron and ironing board included in the rooms.

If you don't feel like going downtown, there are some great, friendly bars in the neighborhood.
