This hotel is right in the heart of El Born and you can easily see the old city of Barcelona (El Born and the Gothic Quarter) just by walking. It also has the convenience of being right on the edge of the old town. Turn left from the entrance and it's the disorganized maze of El Born and turn right it's the grid plan of the Eixample. This will save you so much time on transport. The rooms are great however if you get a triple, it's very small so be aware. The breakfast is top notch too. Their Spanish omelette is the best and so are their fruit. I would recommend staying here for sure

We booked this place specifically because it says it has air conditioning, but when we arrived they said they only use the air conditioning in the summer. Tried to ask for money back, and they were very rude about the whole matter. The shower was dirty when we checked into our room and the caulk work on the shower was terrible and messy. I would absolutely not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The property was very well kept and perfect for our family of 3. The staff was accommodating with our baggage while we toured the city. The only issue was the exterior door was locked when my daughter returned at night, and there wasn’t anyone at the desk.

Broncos a great neighborhood. Classic old architecture, windy street, plazas, dining and bars. Like a laid back, young hip version of the gothic quarter. This hotel clean, classy, perfect location and has everything you need.
