We stayed at this hotel for three nights precruise. Based on what I had read online, this wouldn't have been my first choice, but it was pretty much my only choice based on a package I booked through a travel company, so I was a little concerned about what I would find. Many people have commented on the "nasty" nature... more

We came overnight from Paris on an excellent trenhotel and just needed beds and bathrooms for a week in barcelona. This did that very well. the public rooms and restaurant in the hotel were a bit grand and not well serviced but we didn't need them. This hotel is Ok but there are dozens of others. Just look for the... more

The hotel is lovely and the resturant staff are lovely and the door man is so helpful but the Reception Staff - what a pack of horrible snobby people, I stood at the reception desk and they completely ignored me and when they did respond you would think that you were asking them to cut their hand off!!!!! The location... more

Rudest hotel employees I've ever encountered! We were put in the smallest corner room in the hotel, right next to the maid's laundary shoot and break area...Constant noise. The room did not have an alarm clock, fan, iron or coffee maker. Internet cost 5 Euro/15 min. The breakfast cost 20 Euro and if you wanted coffee, you had to pay... more

Outside the hotel there is a metro station. The hotel is next to Catalunya place and many attractions, museums, bars, restaurants are in a walking distance. Great choice for staying, trust me. It is old building, though renovated. more

Barcelona's Avenida Palace is the perfect location to stay in Barcelona. Beautiful appointments and small but attentive staff. Near La Rambla and all transportations. A few small drawbacks are: no coffee machine, no fitness center (a plus to me, but missed by my wife), no ice service that we could find, the room safes didn't work (two rooms, safes were... more

Very helpful staff, always gave us information w/ cordiality. Big room (a bit dark, but ok), bed and bathroom although the bathtub wasn't clean enough to be used (as a tub). Great location in the heart of the city. The breakfast is very nice, w/ good quality of food. They charge 22 euros for an internet access in the room,... more

We stayed here in a group of eight at the end of a European vacation/cruise. The position is great with proximity to Las Ramblas & Metro/bus stops. The showers in two of our rooms leaked quite badly to the point that housekeeping provided extra towels to soak up the water. Apart from that, the rooms were a good size. We... more

\The hotel is well located, close to Placa Catalunya and Las Ramblas, but not so close that you hear all the noise. Didn't have a lot of interaction with the staff but overall found them helpful and pleasant. Their English is a lot better than my Spanish. Had wine and tapas in the bar one night and found the service... more
