I didn't stay in this hotel, but my Mum and I visited in December and ate a late supper in the bar. Exceptional tapas in wonderful surroundings to the sound of a funky jazz trio! Fab, very much recommend a visit! I can only imagine that the rest of the hotel amenities will be to an equally high standard.

We recently stayed at this hotel after a cruise and were really happy that we chose Ohla! Wow! The hotel is in the perfect location, easy walk to anywhere you would like to go in the city but far enough away from the over crowded spots. The rooms are the most modern we've ever seen. Beautiful and brand new. Everything... More

The hotel is in a very convenient location in walking distance of many of Barcelona's attractions...for the remaining ones there's a Metro station just across the street. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms a well sized with all the comfort one needs except for the missing luggage racks.The hotel and... More

From the moment we were checked in to the moment we were checked out we could not falter the service. Everything was very efficient and nothing was too much. The men on he concierge desk were truly amazing, even coming out into the street to help with the ticket machine. Definitely get up on the roof and soak up some... More

Great service! Wonderful room! Comfort big bed. Glass shower a treat. Never been in such a good hotel. Best location ever! 50 m from subway, 200 from ramble. Breakfast no more then ok though, but enough.

The location is fantastic, the metro is across the street.Shopping and dining options are abundant all around you. The service at the breakfast restaurant was almost non-existent. If you wanted anything you had to walk up to the waiters and ask them. We had the buffet breakfast which was a big disappointment. A small selection of hot food from the... More

Charming, modern hotel in a prime location. The highlight of this hotel is the rooftop pool. One of the nicest views of you can ever experience gazing on the rooftops of Barcelona's beautiful architecture sipping on sangrias. The rooms are modern and quite large with plenty of sunlight. Perfect place to come back to after a long day at the... More

Hotel Ohla is a very clean, modern hotel in a perfect location for exploring downtown Barcelona. Everything at the hotel was "good" but did not amaze me in any way. The breakfast was decent, but nothing exceptional. The gastrobar was OK, but did not live up to expectations as "one of the best tapas bars in Barcelona" and did not... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Ohla Hotel is a new five-star hotel located in the heart of Barcelona, an ideal setting for tourists, shoppers and businesspeople offering a world of experience, service and wellbeing. The calmness and serenity of the hotel combined with the hustle-and-bustle of downtown Barcelona offers a unique blend. The Ohla Hotel is built on the site of a former Roman water canal and the palace of the first Count of Barcelona, Guifré el Pilós. The current building dates back 20 years and was initially the site of Barcelona’s first department store (Casa Vilardell). The building was renovated under the direction of Alonso, Balaguer y Arquitectos Asociados with artistic assistance by Frederic Amat. During the renovation, the historical building façade and other historical elements of the initial building have been preserved in their entirety, whilst the interior design of the building is avant-garde in its approach, combining different white and black textures with oak wood. ... more   less
