In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness rating is relatively low — With a rating of 6 out of 10, this category lags behind others, so expectations should be managed.
  • Pool is smaller than it appears — One guest notes the rooftop pool is small and looks larger in photos, despite the great view.
  • Lack of bathroom privacy in some rooms — A guest warns that bathroom walls are glass, offering no privacy for those showering, which may not suit friends travelling together.
  • Not fully central, requires metro — The hotel is a bit outside the city centre, though only 4 metro stops from Plaza de Catalunya with no transfers needed.

“The location was good, as were the room and breakfast. The pool is quite small — it looks larger in the pictures — but the view from the roof is great. Staff were mostly friendly, though sometimes a bit sharp.”

8.6Verified guest

“The location is perfectly convenient for me, and the design has a retro, statistical vibe.”

8.6Verified guest

“The room was very good and clean. A note for friends travelling together: the bathroom walls are glass, so there's no privacy in the shower. Breakfast was very good — good quantities, quality, and variety. Room service went well. The hotel isn't fully central, but it's only 4 metro stops from Plaza de Catalunya without changing trains. The metro felt safe, so we travelled day and night without issue.”
