If you're looking for a classy, elegant, friendly, and peaceful stay, El Palace is the place to go for that and more. I cannot speak highly enough about the entire staff and dining experience here. Alexis, Christian, and Javier are just one of the few employees that made us feel so welcome and made our stay a lot more enjoyable. The concierge recommended some restaurants which were fantastic. I highly recommend the Junior suite! The room was very spacious, elegant and clean. Thank you to everyone at El Palace! This was our first trip to Barcelona and you made our stay all the more memorable!
