“This hotel's prime location across from the Barcelona Cathedral makes it a compelling choice for exploring the Gothic Quarter. While some rooms might feel compact, the rooftop bar and terrace offer expansive city views that compensate, and dining presents local flavors. I would suggest considering a larger room, if accessibility and space are high priorities.”

Excellent Hotel Experience

great location rooftop bar clean room

The hotel is directly across from the Cathedral. It made sightseeing very easy. A nice rooftop bar existed on the 7th floor! The room was clean. Breakfast offered a wonderful view from the rooftop restaurant.

The noise from late night parties outside continued until 2am. Transportation around this area was limited. It caused some inconveniences.

fantastic stay!

great location walking distance easy access excellent accessibility

The hotel's location was amazing. it sat right across from the cathedral. it made visiting many sights easy because las ramblas and la boqueria were within walking distance. a taxi to sagrada familia was readily available. Everything felt very accessible.

the tv channel selection catered less to english speakers! though the youtube and netflix apps partially offset this, i needed to know my passwords.
