Hotel was beautiful with an incredible restaurant on the second floor. Staff always went above and beyond! The four cheese pizza from the shop across the street was AMAZING! Everything was walking distance and so nice. The 5am disco parties at the apollo need to chill a smidgen on a Tuesday. I was 7 floors up.

La primera impresión al llegar al hotel es que no parece de 4 ✨✨✨✨ el lobby se ve un poco descuidado, al hacer el checking no nos information sobre el desayuno, al llamar a la recepción y preguntar sobre las opciones de comida no nos dijeron que había opción de cena buffet pero con 24 hrs de antelación. Estuvimos por 5 noches se podía oír el ruido exterior al hotel y el de el pasillo , a pesar que nos dieron un upgrade . El rooftop cierra temprano antes de las 10 de la noche. La limpieza de la habitación es excelente. Pedimos hielo y nos fue entregado rápidamente. Algunos del personal de recepción no muy amables. Transportación de taxis afuera del hotel al igual que estación de metro a pocos pasos. Accesibilidad al centro de la ciudad es caminante pero hay que tener cuidado porque el vecindario detrás del hotel no es seguro.

We had booked this hotel specifically because it had a rooftop pool. When we got there it was under repair and we were therefore unable to use it. It was very disappointing that we were not informed about this before we arrived. It made a big difference to our enjoyment of our stay.

This property was in a great location - about 1/2 mile from the pier; and less than that to the Gothic Quarters. Everything was in walking distance and even though it was about a 1 1/2 miles to some of the Gaudi houses, it was beautiful and easy. The best amenity of this hotel was the magnificent rooftop bar where the pool and a lot of seating was available. It was one of the most amazing views from anywhere in the City. My wife and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Barcelona. If we go back, we definitely will stay there again!
