Staff (Vivien) was very nice and helpful. Hotel was typical European-clean but small rooms. The room was awash in pink and ruffles and very dated but very functional including a refrigerator and nice shower pressure. We enjoyed an ice cream cone each night when we arrived back at the hotel. The food bar was available any time but we only... More

“Convenient hotel on the rambla in Barcelona”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 May 2013

The hotel arranged our taxi from the cruise ship - the entrance is a bit obscure, but the driver knew the location. The entrance is on level 2 - a moment of training in elevator operation would smooth your entry! We were able to register early and enjoy a beer and wine with other guests in the garden. internet access... More
