Silken Ramblas Hotel Barcelona

The rooms are very hear-through .. Would not stay here again!

very good location close to La Rambla, very kind staff

The hotel was great. The rooms were clean and enjoyable. It is located in the perfect spot. It was an easy walk to dining, shopping and to the port (waterfront). La Boqueria is right down the street as well as the metro stations. The only bad thing about the hotel is that the walls are very thin, but besides that it was perfect. The staff speaks english and were ready to help at anytime. Another thing is that if you fly in early they won't let you check in until 2pm, but they hold your luggage which allows you to explore the area while you wait to check in. All in all a very good hotel.

Hotel is generally nice. The location is good if you want to be on the Las Ramblas, however we felt it is better to be on the east side of Las Ramblas where it's not as touristy. The hotel looks very nice and is updated, however, it needs some cleaning especially the carpets in common areas. It is also very loud throughout the night, but you get used to it. The staff was great and I would stay in this hotel again.

cute boutique hotel, fairly new with all the amenities such as hair dryer, coffee in room, cable TV. Desk staff was great, bartender and restaurant staff not so great. In a great location of the historic section, but no view from the guest rooms. This was an overnight stay before heading to the cruise ship and for that it was a perfect stay

I would say that this hotel should really be a 3star by US standards... Pros: Location right off Ramblas St, replace shampoos, toothbrush, shaving, soaps daily, has a safe. Wifi available Cons: No iron or ironing board not even on request (major problem for me), heat only during cold season, AC only during other seasons. We were there early Dec and the weather was warm the 3 days we were there but alas no AC. Was told to open windows. WORST problem was the paper thin walls. You can seriously hear the neighbors turn on the shower, flush toilets, talking, TV... etc. Might as well have stayed at a hostel since its like you have extra roommates. Lastly, business center available but at a cost to use the computer and printer. Something i wouldnt expect at 4 star hotel

The Hotel was great forthe location, very near to all amenities, especially restaurants. The hotel bedroom walls were so thin you could hear your neighbours talking, not too good that at 2 0'clock in the morning they still had the TV bleariing to the point we couldn't sleep, and then at 7 in the morning the noise started again, I thought they were in our room when I woke up. The Hotel was very clean and comfortable and staff were very helpful. I would stay in this hotel again if they could do something to change the acoustics. By our standards I feel it was no better than 3star.

This hotel was just a block off Las Ramblas and that's where you want to be in Barcelona. It was fine for a night. The bed was hard as a rock, the walls are paper thin and you can hear every noise including conversations from neighboring rooms. Apparently, europeans are very energy conscience. You can't turn on the lights without your room key and the a/c never gets below 80 degrees farenheit. The staff was there in body only. They didn't seem to much care about you or their jobs and just answered questions in a terse almost insulting way. I wouldn't stay here for more than a night or two and only for the location. It was terrific!

This is an acceptable hotel; however, the need for ac was realized, but they do not have it running during the fall or winter season so it was very comfortable. Of course, we tried to leave the window open and the abundance of noise was overwhelming. Hence, the location was great, but the sauna like room and/or noisy alley during the fall season is something to evaluate for future guests.
