Nice hotel overall but luxury of a sliding toilet door that actually shuts properly was not apparent (checked a couple of rooms, all have gaps). Not exactly romantic so only stayed one of our four nights.

Hotel was amazing and they were able to organise interconnecting rooms for my family. They went out of their way to help which really made the stay. The rooftop bar area was a real treat, a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the streets below. The pool is not heated so we did not try it. The gym is very well equipped. The hotel is very well located to access the old town and the main tourist attractions. A bit of advice would be to book the Sagrada Famila and Parc Guell well in advance - it was fully booked so we missed out but it did not detract from a wonderful stay.

Really great staff and the hotel’s street level tapas restaurant is amazing with delicious cocktails. Great location - across the street from the Gothic Quarter and not far from the airport either - about 30-40 euros by taxi
