Nice and central hotel with good cuisine

Nice hotel in central Barcelona. 5 minute walk to Placa d'Espanya where you can go by metra or bus anywere in town. Personell was very polite and they have a good restaurant in the hotel. Not so much choice but the food was excellent! Very nice breakfast buffet. Rooms are pretty spacy and the bed was really big. TV channels mostly spanish, only a few analogue english and german channels.

Top-Hotel

Das Hotel liegt ein wenig ausserhalb des Zentrums jedoch sehr nahe am Mont Jouic. Das Hotel ist sehr sauber. Die Zimmer sind sehr gross und schön eingerichtet. Das Bett ist ebenfalls sehr gross und bequem. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist top. Das Bad ist sehr gut eingerichtet und alles sehr sauber.

Hyvä valinta

Hotelli oli kaikin puolin siisti ja puhdas. Ainoa kummallisuus oli lisävuode. Se ei kuulemma mahtunut huoneeseen, koska siellä oli 2 king size vuodetta. 6-vuotias nukkui siis kanssani. Hänelle ei tuotu omaa pyyhettäkään kuin pyynnöstä. Aamupala oli mielestäni liian kallis.

top lage, grosses zimmer, hellhörig, personal okay

Für einen 5tägigen städtetrip waren meine Kollegin und ich da. Sieht hübsch aus, Zimmer riesig mit Sofa und Schreibtisch. Duschköpfe total verkalkt, für 4* nicht okay. Kofferträger halfen nicht, Gepäck auf Zimmer zu bringen. Wir reisten mit Rucksack an im Touri- Outfit. Wir sahen wohl nicht schick genug aus. Pool ist okay, aber einstiegshilfe ins Becken war halb lose. Lage ist Top. Alle (auch hauspersonal) schmeissen Türen zu. Also ausschlafen nicht möglich. Pool und Sauna zwar bis 22 geöffnet, jedoch kommtan nur bis 21 rein. Sauna ist winzig.

Superpåske

3 dage i Barcelona lige op til påske. Super hotel med lidt hårde senge som straks blev udbedret da vi påpegede det. Fin pool som vi havde næsten for os selv. Venlig betjening og eneste minus var måske at det var midt mellem to metro stationer men dog en detalje man kunne leve med.

Great for value

Great hotel for the value. The location was excellent just nearby the magic fountain and the distance to the nearest metro station was tolerable. No noise from outside of the hotel. The staff was friendly and everything went smoothly without any difficulties. I would recommend this hotel without a doubt.

dommage...

tres grande chambre tranquille et silencieuse. Dommage que le personnel à la réception soit si distant et peu avenant. Photo de la piscine ne correspond pas à la réalité Petite déjeuner pas inclus et beaucoup trop cher
