We stayed for 3 nights from 19th November 2006, in a twin/double (two semi-double beds adjoined together) room for EUR 444 incl. tax, booked directly from the hotel website.
Our room was on the 6th floor with great view, bright & airly, quiet, spotlessly clean... We were very impressed by the design of the room - obviously refurbished recently, contemporary with laminated floor, plenty of lighting options. Very nice size. All the amenities you can think of... electric safe, built-in radio that also plays in the bathroom - lovely to listen to some music while having a bath. It would have been nice had there been a hot drink facility in the room (e.g. coffee machine), but I don't suppose you find it in many hotels in Europe... Large window opens widely, ventilation & air conditioner are also perfect.
Bathroom is also beautiful & in nice size, with bidet, heated towel rail. As well as shampoo & shower gel, toothbrush set, shaving razer + cream, shoe cleaner, comb, shower cap, sewing set, disposable washing sponge. When we checked in, toilet was sealed with a sticker to ensure hygiene standards.
Free access to swimming pool. Receptionists are friendly + very polite. 2 lifts/elevators work very well.
We didn't actually use the bar/care on the first floor. But there is a cafe opposite the hotel who opens at 7:30am and serves continental breakfast as well as English-style big breakfast for reasonable prices.
Great location - less than a minute walk from Universitat Metro station, a few minutes walk to Placa de Espanya / La Rambla. I'm usually quite fussy about the hotel I stay, but this one I just can't complain! I would definitely choose Hotel Jazz again.
