Reviews
Check in was quick and arriving in our room we found complimentary champagne which was a lovely touch. The terrace had a private small pool and the bathroom was spacious, the whole room was very clean. Comfortable bed and really nice shower. The hotel provided robes and slippers although they're a little small for average men or bigger!
Some reasons we took off a star for the room:
Only one sun lounger and no table and chairs to enjoy meals together on our terrace or sunbathe together - we could see other terraces had two loungers and table/chairs so that was frustrating as we couldn't use the space as we expected (from online photos)
There were gaps in the privacy fencing so neighbours would visible peek through while you're in the pool and it was slightly overlooked from other buildings so not as private as you might think
The room, was clean and compact but almost too small. Nowhere to put suitcases and not enough storage for two people to unpack everything.
The TV in the room next door was very clearly audible from our bathroom
The bathroom mirror is the heater - excellent feature to prevent steaming but no option to turn it off so the bathroom could get warm because we had to keep the door closed due the loud TV next door, the air con would have probably balanced the temperature had the door stayed open during the night
The pools pump feature turns off too early which was disappointing. The pool water is not heated at all for cooler days or for use in the evenings.
Very limited room service menu generally but particularly for anyone with any type of dietary requirements. Same goes for the breakfast menu which, along with having no table or chairs on our terrace to eat it, is why we didn't order it, as €19 each is a lot, but for a vegan guest it is a total waste of money
We booked 2 rooms, Deluxe and Premium. Both rooms had recently been renovated, everything looked brand new.
Rooftop bar and pool were gorgeous and not too busy which was nice. Lovely bar, small but nice.
10/10
We were 4 couples who had booked this property for 3 nights, while the hotel location is nice with all major attractions nearby, we encountered a theft of 500 EUROS cash from locker from one of the rooms and the next day all our luggage compromised and locks broken, while we were fortunate enough to not encounter any financial loss.
The hotel manager and staff is not cooperative and this seems like a planned activity the whole staff does with the tourists, we reported the matter with the police on 112 however it is a long process and the hotel benefits from it.
When we argued with the manager requesting support we were also threatened to be kicked out of the property for being “rude” & that 500 euros is too small an amount for the staff to steal.
Would highly recommend to avoid this property in the future.
We were 4 couples who had booked this property for 3 nights, while the hotel location is nice with all major attractions nearby, we encountered a theft of 500 EUROS cash from locker from one of the rooms and the next day some of the luggage was kept open in another room.
The hotel manager and staff were initially not cooperative and when we argued with the manager requesting support we were also threatened to be kicked out of the office for being “rude” & that 500 euros is too small an amount for the staff to steal.
We reported the matter with the police on 112 and filed a report the very next day, however it is a long process and wasted half of my day and not to forget the stress that it caused.
Later, we had a much better conversation with the deputy manager, Justin. He provided us with the comfort that we had been looking for and refunded the amount for one room. He also told us that the hotel had fired the staff member who had entered our room for cleaning.
One must always watch out in Barcelona but I didn't expect such things to happen from within my hotel room.
I’ve stayed at Catalonia hotels before and enjoyed them, but will avoid from now on.
There are plenty of better choices nearby.
Breakfast had plenty of choice and delicious freshly squeezed orange juice. I ate in the restaurant one evening and it was good but not great.
It's a shame the roof top bar etc was closed as it was still warm enough even in November. I'd definitely stay here again.
