The area
Address
Neighborhood: Eixample
Passing through the glorious Plaça Catalunya, you enter the newer city district of Eixample, literally translated as “extension,” which immediately becomes recognizable by its more spacious streets and elegant atmosphere. The main artery of this sizable district, Passeig de Gracia, is lined with high-end international designer stores. Not to be outdone, the glitz and glamour of this zone is perhaps best exemplified by the comfortable and lavish five-star hotels that flank the divine and modernistic buildings from some of the world’s most recognized architects such as Gaudi and Montaner.
How to get there
- Urquinaona • 3 min walk

We had a really great - imaginative and guided by all the sense except the sight - adventure on a wrecked world where we had to make the right choices to make the difference and move forward. I couldn't say more because I'll spoil the whole experience.
I'd like to mention that Julia as a GM is a great imaginative host and Gabriela really impersonated those characters that made our hair stand on end ;)

The best part was the acting role of the gameMaster, I think he should be an actor.
The scape room was nice the ambiance quite good, and the efects really nice. I will repeat for sure, the time flyes in there.

I’ve tried more than 20 escape games around the world, This is definitely my best experience ever!
I’ve played “Ulysses Spaceship” and “Overlook Hotel”, The amount of creativity and technology there just blew my mind.
Besides, “Pau” our overlook hotel game master was just beyond imagination, he completely separated me out of the real world by his unbelievable acting talent, and I started to actually believe that he’s a real psychopath 😂 (thank god he’s not). I really wish him all the best and would definitely love to play a 100 more games with him.

We played Hotel Overlook and had an amazing time. Right from the start, we were plunged into our roles. The design of the decor in the rooms, the effects and the atmosphere were brilliant. There were some really great twists and innovative ideas that made this game really come to life - It felt like we were in the movie. Great attention to detail. The game master Julia did a great job - really attentive and thoughtful to keep the pace of the game, with just the right amount of help. No doubt one of the best games we played so far.

Been to my fair share of escape rooms around the world (kind of our thing on the checklist when we’re on holiday) and this one was by far the most immersive and entertaining one. We did the Hotel Overlook one so if you know what that means already you will enjoy it. But if horror isn’t your jam or you get scared easily then maybe not your thing (see: The Shining). And also to warn: there are no disclaimers or any ‘fire exit’ notices or in the state of emergency what to do discussion at the start of the experience. The minute you step in the door, it starts. One of our friends found out the hard way! But the rest of us enjoyed it, screaming out whilst trying to figure out clues. To be fair, we were also VERY scared but enjoyed the experience thoroughly. Julia in particular was great in her role. She was very helpful to that friend who was extra sensitive to these things and was very sympathetic even though it was nobody’s fault. Great company, great experience and great experience. We will definitely come back to do another one!

We had a group of "veteran" escapers and did a hasty booking during a dinner so we didnt read what we got ourselv into. Gamemaster Rau made our entry a unforgettable experience. One need to be able to face some fears to have a successfull escape here, but its very well made..

First time doing a full horror escape room with actors participating in the immersion (Overlook Hotel). We were both scared and delighted beyond what we imagined ! A big thank you to our hosts Guillem, Marta and Virginia because you were perfect in your respective roles and you made the experience unforgetable.
For those hesitating, this new dimension of escape room with the extra layer of horror is not a game killer, on the contrary it offers a new kind of experience and as puzzles are made easier to counterbalance the fear, you'll still have a good chance to succeed. Give it a try because you don't get those feelings of true tension everyday !

Overlook hotel was easily the best escape room I’ve ever done! Scary, thrilling, and rewarding puzzles. Our game master made the experience - Felipe. His acting skills were the greatest I’ve come across from any experience of this sort. #FelipeForAnOscar

I did the Overlook Hotel with my friends and we had a great time! It was a thrilling and terrifying experience. The guy who helped us, Pau, was extremely charismatic and never broke character. He made the experience. 10/10 will be coming back.

I went for my bday and reserved 3 rooms. I had the hotel horror room. Our host/gamemaster Pau was great. Really liked his acting and effort he put into the game/show. The escape room itself… well it was the worst we have visited so far. My friends took the space and harry potter room and the harry potter was the only one that my friends found OK.
The clues and riddles didnt match up, they had to give us a lot of hints (we’ve done many escape rooms before) and there was no timer.
Also the next riddles that had to go after the first one, didnt match on time most of the time. The reason was a lack in the camera…
It was super fun how they scared us through the game (again thanks to Pau) but the whole escape room itself… well unfortunately we have nothing good to say about that. We were a group of 13. I was a bit disappointed. I would not recommend or go again.
