“amazing view - poor spa”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

Good location. Just in front of the station "Sants", very easy to reach from the airport. Nice, spacious room, amazing view, very nice bathroom. The welcome at the reception was extremly friendly and helpful. The breakfastroom at the 23rd floor is really nice - the breakfast itself was ok, but not the best. We were very dissapointated in the spa. We were looking forward to some relaxing hours in a nice spa, but found a rather dirty pool area, with a window wide open directly to the garage, very slippery floor, rather dirty relaxing beds (not even enough for the ten guests that were there at the time, so we had to share one) right in front of the pool. We got one towel each, wich we also found not enough, if you wanna go to the sauna and the pool. We found the spa is definetly not worth the 6 Euro we had to pay for it and we would have expected something else in such a nice hotel!!
Nice hotel - amazing view - friendly stuff - poor spa and rather poor breakfast

“Pleasant stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 21, 2013

Ideal location, step out of the station and your there, can easily access all the sights from here. Hotel is clean, receptionist georgina was exceptionally welcoming and helpful in pointing out sights to see, we pretty much follwed her quick itenarary. Stayed 3 nights, had breakfast on one morning which was slightly expensive but good hot/cold selection. WIFI available and also an internet room. All staff were very welcoming and helpful. Room had all the facilities of a 5* room and very clean. Stayed on the 5th floor so not much of a view but good light due to huge windows. very comfortable stay would definitly consider staying here again but probably look for a package that includes breakfast.

Room Tip: Corner rooms have double sided windows

“Big bath room with lots of amenities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 21, 2013

The hotel is in front of the station. I stayed in double bed room for single use. The room was very clean and big. Above all, the bath room was very wide. There were bathrobes and slippers.

There was spa in the hotel. Guests can use sauna, Turkish hamam and bubble bath with 7 Euro.

“Amazing views, comfort and friendly helpful staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2013

The reception staff were extremely helpful. We upgraded to an executive room and the bed and pilows were really comfortable, with a huge bathroom and tea making facilites, Molton Brown complimentary toiletries etc. We used the gym and spa - the former is free and open pretty much all day and the latter was 6 euros. I'm not sure how it would cope size wise if the hotel was full as we were there off season. Both are small but well equipped. We ate in the top floor 'Visual' restaurant where the views across the city were amazing and the food excellent. You pay a price for eating in the hotel but the views compensated and it was easily the best food we ate during our visit. The staff in the Eklecktic Bar were fabulous, friendly and full of great advice. In a day and a half we walked everywhere and managed to see Camp Nou (20 minute walk, very pricey but had to be done with a football fan husband), Sagrada Familias, Las Ramblas and Montjuic Castle. Montjuic Castle was free and we chose to walk rather than take the cable cars - it was steep but worth it and free to enter with panoramic views over all of Barcelona. Las Ramblas was just a shoping street - I guess it may be more entertaining in season but to be honest we weren't that impressed. Our only disappointment was when we arrived the Magic Fountain was broken so we didn't get to see a display, but this was only a 10 minute walk away from the hotel. Overall a great location, spacious and clean room and excellent facilities. We would stay again if we went to Barcelona and for those not so keen on walking the tourist bus stops by the adjacent station and there are metro and train stations on your doorstep.

Room Tip: Go to the top to avoid noise from the busy city streets and enjoy the views.
