Didn't get off to a great start as we were asked unfriendly desk clerk to "please wait 5 minutes" before we could check in. The first room we were given was tiny and gloomy and the small double bed was rock hard. We asked for another room and were moved to a twin. Beds were not much better, furnishings should... more

Wonderful hotel, excellent desk staff, particularly the daytime guy that's been there for 34 years. He is fantastic. Rooms spare but quiet (if you are at the back). Can't say enough about the location. more

Location could not be better - quiet street but only short walk to main square, Ramblas and central loactions. Our room had limited natural light but loads of character. I sent an e asking if there were hair dryers provided (there were) but did not get a reply. Loads of bars and restaurents very close. Best to check price of... more

Excellent location, close to all the good stuff. Room is outdated and very spartan; same could be said for the hotel. But, at about 100 euros, it was a good value. Highly recommend having breakfast at Navarro's around the corner and down the street toward the Plaza Catalunya. I don't care much for the whole business of letting them hold... more

The Placa Catalunya, Cortes Ingles department store, the architectural "Block of Discord" and the Passeig de Gracia metro stop are only a few steps out the door. The staff are helpful and speak English. However, the rooms are a... more

This hotel is located in a very good location! You are close to the main square, La Ramblas and the stops for the "hop-on-hop-off" buses. I was not pleased with the hotel for the price that I have paid for. The internet is free but I was not able to get it on the 3rd floor. We tried to put... more

The hotel is exactly as it says on its website. Perfectly located for Plaza Catalunya, and the heart of the city. As we needed parking for our rental car, this suited the bill as it meant we didn't need to navigate the streets of Barcelona, as there is a parking building alongside it, and as it was on the main... more

I enjoyed Granvia Hotel. The room was nice and elegant also the staff was helpful and friendly. Price was reasonable more

First of all, after reading some reviews regarding items being stolen, Barcelona is renowned for petty crime and I know scores of people who have had items stolen. But having visited this beautiful city around 5 times, this time for 10 nights, I can quite honestly say I have had absolutely no trouble at all. While I completely sympathise with... more
