This hotel is ranked as 4-stars, but that is way too high! I'd give it only 1 star. There was a bad smell in the lobby and the room. The windows opened, but the loud street party, motorcycles, and garbage trucks went on all through the night, eliminating that option. There was a very noisy air freshener in the bathroom... More

Booked as part of a flights and hotel weekend deal. Google StreetViewed the location and was a bit worried by the all the graffiti on the buildings in the area. Only on walking around Barcelona do you realise this is pretty endemic and not a reflection on the safety of the area. Hotel was very good; from friendly reception staff,... More

Excellent hotel, rooms are spacious and clean with a very modern feel throughout the hotel. Our room overlooked the square with lovely views. The breakfast on offer provides variety and would suit all tastes. Hotel staff were extremely helpful when travelling to Camp Nou for a Barca football match. Would recommend this hotel for exploring an amazing city and suggest... More

Breakfast good variety of cold meats and cheeses together with hot food of bacon and sausages and toast and jams. Reception area clean and spacious. English speaking reception... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in October 2011. The room was comfortable and a good size. The bathroom was clean with nice showers. Generally the room was quiet as we were facing the inside of the hotel. On the second night there was a flashing light outside our bedroom that was a bit irritating and meant we didn't sleep... More

The hotel where we prepaid our room placed us in the Medinaceli. The room was pleasantly laid out and opened onto the square. The room was hot, so we opened the balcony door; there were several noisy men in the square day and night. The room was very musty. The tub was difficult to get in and out of. The... More

I stayed here for 2 nights in September 2011. Was conscious of previous reviews and concerned that I might experience the same. Pleased, however, that either there had been either attention to the reviews by management or the reviews were incorrect. The location is excellent and at the end of La Ramblas, the room was clean and very satisfactory, the... More

I took this hotel for just one night with friends. Location is nice, right at the end of La Ramblas very close to the port. Quite street on the side. Rooms were odd, my room basically had a window only to the corridor, which I find odd and quite uncomfortable. TV was on the slant (broken), no English or foreign... More

You walk in the lobby past graffiti barracades in front of the main entrance - terrible smell in lobby and near front door - smells like the cross between mold and urine!! No ice machine, no bar, no beverage machines, the English channels on TV did not work. The phone next to our bed did not work. The bed felt... More
