This freshly and stylishly refurbished hotel is in a fantastic location on the coastal edge of the Barri Gotic. Unlike some previous reviewers, I found the staff to be unfailingly helpful and friendly. The same applies to the previous reviewers' complaints about noise - we had a ground floor room by the street but the double-glazing kept our nearly everything... more

We stayed there for three nights and we had a very comfortable accomodation. We red a lot of bad opinions before to start and we were a bit worry but when we arrived we have found a very large room, very clean, recently renowed and a perfect bathroom. We had breakfast included and we can confirm it's a real continental... more

First things first. The location is excellent. Spending 5 days in Barcelona and being around on almost every place of the city I can't thing of a better location we could have stayed. I must admit that I haven't done a market research on prices around that location, but spending €570 for 3 nights for a single room with 3... more

The location of the hotel is very nice, right next to the La Rambla street and the marina. Rooms look good and comfortable enough. Yet there were plenty of annoyances - no Wifi, it wasn't even possible to buy any for some reason, the elevator broke on the first day of stay, air conditioning didn't work as expected, room window... more

The staff is so rude and stubborn that we had to bring the police over to the hotel to resolve the issues created by the staff themselves. The personnel has a very poor command of english and were never willing to help with the most typical needs of foreign tourists. Have to point our particularly the receptionist - HECTOR GATICA... more

Stayed here for 10 days. Think the key to the good/bad reviews may be which floor your room is. Did hear a few people complaining about noise who were all on the top floor. I stayed in a room on first floor overlooking the square with 2 balconies and had no noise problems and also stayed in room on second... more

We arrived in Barcelona late, and were told that our hotel had been double booked. We were then sent to the Medinaceli which was a higher star hotel, so were originally pleased. However on arrival we were soon dissapointed. The hotel stank of drains and the staff spoke little or no English. There was no bar and the rooms had... more

Third time to Barcelona, so had a fairly good idea of hotels and locations. Booked the Medinaceli as it seemed to offer a reasonable price for centrally located four star accomodation. Not a great start as we had booked twin beds and were taken to a double room. The room was changed to one overlooking the (rather seedy at night... more

I think this hotel is very overpriced. Although the staff did try to help, they were ill informed. The hotel is not soundproofed (as stated on their site) and I was kept awake all night from banging, noise outside on the street, in the corridor as well as water running down between the walls. The heater didn't work and I... more

We used this hotel as a pre cruise night place to stay to be near Port Vell as we were leaving for a cruise the next day, and it was excellent for our needs. The front desk staff was helpful and our room was larger than we expected upon arrival, considering the typical European hotel room. We found the room... more
