Just had 3 nights at the Medinaceli, a triple room. The hotel is very well situated (at Dressanes metro station), near the port (attractions: Cristofor Columb monument and the Aquarium) and Las Ramblas. The room could have been a little bigger, but overall was OK, it compensated with the larger bathroom. We were disappointed by the breakfast, very poor (comparing... More

I recently stay in the Medinaceli and although not being used for several weeks the UK debit card I used to reserve my booking was fraudulently used 3 and 4 days after we checked out for up to £790. I know when I checked in they had my card details written down and stored in a draw at reception. The... More

Modern, stylish, spacious, very clean and quiet hotel, located just 2 minutes from la Rambla and metro and nice 15 minute walk to Barceloneta beach. Location is just the best thing about this hotel. You can go just about everywhere from the beautiful and quiet Medinaceli square. Reasonably priced for my accomodation. Breakfast was very rich and tasty too. Would... More

My team and I usually stay at Le Medinaceli as it is very convenient for our meetings. Price is very reasonable when not high season and staff are always willing to help regardless of their English skills. Great location; 5min away from the famous La Rambla and 7min from seaside and restaurants. Breakfast is rather limited in terms of range... More

This hotel is ranked as 4-stars, but that is way too high! I'd give it only 1 star. There was a bad smell in the lobby and the room. The windows opened, but the loud street party, motorcycles, and garbage trucks went on all through the night, eliminating that option. There was a very noisy air freshener in the bathroom... More

Booked as part of a flights and hotel weekend deal. Google StreetViewed the location and was a bit worried by the all the graffiti on the buildings in the area. Only on walking around Barcelona do you realise this is pretty endemic and not a reflection on the safety of the area. Hotel was very good; from friendly reception staff,... More

Excellent hotel, rooms are spacious and clean with a very modern feel throughout the hotel. Our room overlooked the square with lovely views. The breakfast on offer provides variety and would suit all tastes. Hotel staff were extremely helpful when travelling to Camp Nou for a Barca football match. Would recommend this hotel for exploring an amazing city and suggest... More
