Comment
The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel food was very tasty and the service was excellant, however, the menu was limited.
Top Tip
Make sure that you walk to the port and look at the liners/yachts - this is where the shopping centre is. At the top of la rambla's is more clothes shops and 'Hard Rock Cafe' is situated here. Go on the bus tours. A ticket costs 20 euro for one day pass and there are three different routes - each route takes about 2 1/2 hours. There are some beautiful sites and buildings to see.

Traveller from Mountmellick stayed in April,2008
Comment
Front of house staff were excellent, restaurant staff a little surly. Take a high floor to avoid street noise and sirens. Take a travel kettle as no facilities in the room and buy local cereal, tea, etc., breakfast very expensive.
Top Tip
Very accessible to La Rambles, Barcelona Tour Bus a must for seeing all the sites, ticket available at Hotel take the 2 day package for the extra €4.00. Metro just across the road. There's a great Tapa Restaurant out of Hotel turn right and on the first corner on the left fantastic value for money and great food.

Traveller from Youghal stayed in March,2008
Comment
Stayed on the first floor and was a bit noisy, lovely room but no tea/coffee facilities, staff in the dining room for breakfast were not pleasant or helpful but all other staff were nice, small bar in the lobby of the hotel, no late bar.
Top Tip
Lots of tapas restaurants, must like fish as meet choices not great. Nicest restaurants in the square off the La Ramblas. Must see the Cathedral, very inpressive. Drink and food quite dear, bring lots of money.

Traveller from GALWAY stayed in February,2008
Comment
Overall had a great stay, however was disappointed with the service at breakfast each morning in the dining room. Staff were not a bit helpful & rude at times. The buffet selection itself was good with plenty of choice. Beautiful restaurants along the marina about 7min walk from hotel.
Top Tip
Bus tour was a great way to see the city.

Traveller from Belfast stayed in January,2008
Comment
We were a group of 20 people, some of the bderooms had no windows and those with wndows were on a busy noisy road.
If you are a light sleeper I wouldn't recommend.
The pool would be great in Summer months - we visited in January.
Top Tip
Hard Rock Cafe & Los Caracoles both great for food.
