Pros:

Hotel California is in a great location seeing Barcelona. It can get noisy at night and into the early morning, but hey! People are having fun in a great city.

Cons:

The rooms are quite compact and we were ambivalent about having a 6 figure code for the room instead of a card.

Perfect, thanks to helpful staff!🙏
Pros:

Where to start?! At first, we came to hotel quite early, we asked to place our luggage till check in time. We left our luggage and mentioned that we will check out at very early morning, at 4am. So we asked if we can take breakfast at this morning, even before check in, and they let us. Than, we are very thankfull for best admistrator Jasmine. She gave us some tips about safety in the evening about this area of Barcelona (we didn’t know that is dangerous for tourists) , and she organised us taxi for the airport shuttle, because we were so naive and would have been going on our foot to the bus stop… she asked us to not risk our safety and take taxi, for our own sake. Thanks Jasmine, at that night, we understood why🙏
About hotel- very stylish, clean, and comfortable for short stay. Would recommend!

Bella stanza, pulita. Bella la colazione, tanti prodotti. Buona posizione. Letto ottimo.
Un saluto super speciale a Jasmine, carinissima e simpaticissima!!

Cons:

Questo non è stato affatto piacevole, attenzione a quanto vi chiedono per la city tax, a noi hanno chiesto più del dovuto, per categoria dell' hotel
Mi chiedo...perché...
