Well located within walking difference of everything. Sleek and modern and I had a lovely double room with an incredibly comfortable double bed. Slightly odd shower cabinet in the middle of the room with clear glass on both sides. I presume I was allocated this room as I was travelling alone. If you were a bit bashful or travelling with a friend this may pose you an issue!

Lovely rooftop area with tiny swimming pool which I didn't use as it was too chilly in November.

Check in experience was very poor. I arrived at 10pm and only once check in desk was open. There were 4 people ahead of me and with the reception area being an odd, small layout it was a very uncomfortable experience especially with a tired, late arrival.

I also found breakfast extremely disappointing. There was a cold continental buffet with a range that would be fine for a 3* hotel, but not a 5*. There were limited fruits, breads, and only one coffee machine for a hotel of this size.

In addition, one hot item is included which you order a la carte. On my first morning I ordered pancakes. I received ONE small pancake with a dollop of jam...incredible!!! On the second day, I ordered omelette with potatoes and onions which was OK but nothing special - in fact a little greasy. On the third, I didn't bother as it was busy and failing to get any waiting staff's attention I decided, for the quality of the food, it was not worth the wait.

Finally the layout of the hotel with the reception area on a mezzanine level, and only a concierge desk on the ground floor meant that any late return to the hotel required a buzz on a door bell and a wait for the door to be attended (the desk was never manned when I arrived back), which was an annoyance and, again, not what I expect at a 5* hotel

It's a very special and modern hotel. The main feature is that of a facade with particular applications. I stayed at this hotel in the winter, then I didn't try the terrace and the pool that look very beautiful.
Inside, the lobby is very accurate but small. The room is furnished with great care and modernity.
The hotel is also a good restaurant although a bit expensive.
The hotel has a very good location, the metro stop is in front.

We really struggled to rate this hotel.. Firstly our checkin was awful, wrong key wrong room * 2 , 20 minutes later it was sorted!!!

Room smelt the whole time we were there - think it was the strange shower in the middle of the room situation which made it smell of toilet!!

Restaurant - fantastic, we had a fab meal in SAUC

Roof terrace - we loved every minute of it, both at night and in the day!!!

Great location for getting around the city! Only planned a one night stay at the end of our cruise and wish we had more time to stay and enjoy Barcelona and this hotel. Spectacular views from the rooftop terrace. Breakfast was included and was nice. One hot plate was include and made fresh when you ordered. We will definitely stay here again when we return.
