リピ確定
Pros:

立地が大変よく、移動しやすかった。ほぼどこも歩きでいけた。
ホテルの従業員も適度にフレンドリーで、居心地が良かった。ルーフトップのサンベッドも予約しやすくてほぼ毎日行きました。バーの値段も高すぎないし、カクテルも美味しい！！
部屋も快適。

Cons:

唯一気になったのが部屋の換気ができないこと。窓はあるがはめ殺し窓なのであけれない。あとは、図書館が一階だと思って間違えて入ったところがオフィスだったみたいで少し怒られてしまい、図書館はどこか聞いたらそれはないと言われた。2回聞いてもないと言われて、そのあとエレベーター乗ったら図書館の階数が普通に書いてあり困惑した。笑

ですがそれ以外は全部良かった！ほんとに全部良かった！

Fabulous location and beautiful hotel
Pros:

Great location, beautiful room, excellent staff

Cons:

Nothing. If you are a light sleeper, this hotel may not be for you. It is on a busy main road and the windows do not have soundproofing. We had a room at the back, and could still hear the road. However, once I used ear plugs I couldn’t hear anything.

Pas mal mais stressant pour une arrivée tardive à Barcelone
Pros:

Hôtel correct

Cons:

Des choses ne fonctionnait comme le Spa .D autre part les conditions pour amener son chien ne sont pas explicites donc après avoir payé à mon arrivée la réception m attendait d’un air policier et m a intimé l ordre de payer 65 euros pour le chien et on m a demandé de changer de chambre alors que ma fille était déjà arrivée et installée .le chien n a pas eu son lit et son cadeau et j ai du payer 100 euros d upgrade de chambre ce que je n avais pas compris dans le wording de Booking sur les conditions de l hôtel accessibles après avoir payé on a eu de longues et jphouleuses conversations avec la direction c était pénible

Luxury and great vibes in the Gothic Quarter
Pros:

The location is great, in the Gothic Quarter but away from La Rambla. Lots of options for food and shopping, and also close to several laundromats.

The bed is the most comfortable bed I have slept on in Europe, ever! And the Euro pillows are items I want for my home.

Also, the amenities are quite nice. Rooftop pool and bar, with food. A spa with hammam. A small but well kept gym. And A/C that works well!

Last, the customer service is very good. Air France lost a bag, but our Concierge, Valentina, was able to help us call the local Air France office and we eventually had our bag delivered to the hotel.
