Grand Hotel Central, Small Luxury Hotels

Fantastic room, rooftop restaurant was amazing. Very friendly and helpful staff

This was a very nice hotel. The storage within the room was a little bit limited, but we got used to it. The hotel is easy to get to. The breakfast provided was very good. The hotel is in a great location and that it provides easy walking access to a lot of the nice areas of the city. One thing that took a little getting used to was that the bathroom door was frosted glass versus a solid core door. You may consider this if bathroom privacy is important to you

We love it here! The service was great! Right away they offered us whatever kind of coffee we liked, helped us with our bags. Location is perfect. Rooftop is beautiful. Rooms are lonely & spacious!

Amazing hotel right by the Cathedral in the Gothic Quarter. The people at the hotel are so friendly and helpful. The service is 5 star. The rooftop pool and lounge offers incredible views, great food and drinks. Already planning our next visit and booking more days this time. The room was great, contemporary, clean and nice.

The curate's egg. Great location, rooftop terrace superb, CanBo restaurant very good indeed. Some of the staff were exemplary.

We don't think it's a 5 star hotel and the superior king room was disappointing, not even a desk or dressing table. Room servicing was somewhat erratic, attention to detail lacking.

Breakfast was average, no better. It would be so easy to make it excellent but no rolls, no sausages, poor selection of eggs (omelette seemed to be an extra). Service was good, staff friendly and obliging.

Asked for one extra hour on check-out but couldn't get that. When we got to our room at 9am, cards no longer worked. Back to reception, new card, no apology. New card didn't work so staff member came up to room with us and confirmed cards no longer working.

Be careful with taxis. Twice we asked for help getting a taxi, both times they failed. One member of staff said better to walk to Placa de Catalunya, only seven minutes. 5 Stars?

Could be excellent but isn't.

Le petit déjeuner se tient dans une salle de cantine sans aucun charme. Le personnel est désagréable. Le buffet vraiment pas à la hauteur des prix
La « piscine » annoncée sur le roof top est un bassin où se posent les oiseaux le soir…( 4 soirs de suite ) . La vue y est belle mais le service débordé

Friendly, accommodating team, nothing was a problem, we enjoyed 3 wonderful nights here. The hotel is in an amazing location, wonderful roof top bar/restaurant and pool. Rooms are super quiet rooms and the blackout blinds really work. Breakfast was bountiful.
I highly recommend staying here.

I just wanted to leave a review to highlight the staff at this hotel. They were absolutely wonderful. So helpful, so accommodating, just generally excellent. Everything else about our stay was great too! Would definitely recommend and stay again, (although I would bring earplugs next time because the walls were really thin). But the amazing front desk service really stuck out to me!

Impractical design but pretty. When I experienced the finer details of the room I found it lacking in practical detail. The bathroom was terrible with a shower over bath, extreme slip hazard and no protection from water going everywhere. Had to ask for a slip mat, this should be standard. There was a grab rail which was in an unnatural position. I was dreading having a shower in this room. There was a tiny garbage bin and a tiny bedside table, both were impractical. There were no working USB ports. All this and it was very very expensive. The common areas and breakfast were very good. Staff were reactive to requests for extra towels and when safe wasn't working. The pool was impressive but I didn't fancy taking a swim with everyone in the bar overlooking me. Overall it didn't meet my expectations for the price

We enjoyed our stay at Grand Hotel Central. Its location was very good albeit we took a Taxi to the various sites which are spread across Barcelona. Our room was large with plenty of seating. Our window view was limited and backed onto a service back road which was occasionally noisy. More soundproofing required here. Breakfast covered most european cuisine which tasted good, however the seating is cramped and sparkling wine available could not be drunk because oddly on both mornings they had run out of clean glasses to serve it and when asked they could not find the staff to replace them. This was a theme when asking for something - upon arrival no glasses were available and the right person was never there to replace items. We booked 2 Taxis and on both occasions they were incorrectly booked earlier than we had requested resulting in a large bill while it sat outside. This might be a Barcelona Taxi thing or staff training required. This is an expensive hotel catering for mostly tourists, and we felt they need to up their game with service and staffing or fall further behind the numerous alternatives.

Our stay was AWESOME! The hotel is beautiful, chic, and comfortable. Based on our experience, we praise the staff (Concierge, Front Desk, Housekeeping, Luggage-Helpers, and Restaurant) in the HIGHEST REGARDS! Individually and collectively, the staff members were EXCEPTIONALLY engaging and helpful. Also, I was very impressed with how they balanced being so personable and professional.

Best location - so accessible to everything.
The rooftop atmosphere is amazing. Book your sunbed in advance if you want a guaranteed spot during siesta hours. Great for a sunset drink too!
I didn't book an "upgraded" room, so my expectations were low. The room was so spacious and clean!
Noise on the hotel floor was low - huge win.
I was greeted with a glass of cava on arrival, and a bottle of cava came with the room. Great added touch.

All in all - I would recommend this place to all of my friends!

Хороший сніданок!Тераса з неймовірним виглядом на місто!

We spent a week at Grand Hotel Central in Barcelona and could not have been more happy with the location, friendly staff, and rooftop bar and pool. The staff were very accommodating and we opted for the breakfast buffet. Rooms are generous and well-appointed. The concierge was very helpful with dinner reservations and recommendations. I would stay here again.

super great location, excellent breakfast, professional team. very recommended all around!
