It's a very nice, old art deco hotel situated close (a couple of blocks) to La Rambla and Catalunya Plaza, the latter of which is a transportation hub, making it an excellent base for exploring Barcelona by foot and metro and for easily getting to and from the airport. They have a rooftop solarium, which we imagine was quite nice, but it was closed at 10 PM when we tended to return to our room, so we didn't see it.

The balcony room was amazong and well worth it! We could wait out and watch the street and it was a cute view. The beds were really comfortable and we could close both balcony doors and it blocked out all light and noise for sleeping. James was really helpful. Thanks for a great stay! We will recommend to friends!

Convenient location and wonderful staff

The hotel was a hidden gem. We happened to find it when our flight bumped us off and the stay at Airbnb couldn’t be extended. The staff was courteous, the room was clean and the hotel could accommodate us a little before time as we were lugging the luggage around. Excellent stay!!!

Not wheelchair friendly

I was disappointed with our stay in Hotel Nouvel. Whilst it is well situated for visiting the downtown places in Barcelona, it is not disabled friendly. It says on the Hotel.com page under accessibility that there is a lift, so assumed it was ok. But the lift is extremely tight for a wheelchair and as it is situated directly next to the main desk, hazardous for a w/c user to get in and out. The bathroom did not have any grab rails which is unsuitable for a disabled person and not conducive to normal patrons getting in and out of the slippery bath. I believe the hotel making an entry under accessibility behoves them to clarify how poor its services for disabled visitors is.
