This hotel is in an excellent location. Sants Estacio station is hub for all kind of transportations. Train to Madrid and all the other cities at the station and trains and buses to get around Barcelona is through that station. Excellent location plus the hotel wasn’t so bad. It was nice and clean it’s not a 5 stars hotel so can’t except much but overall good. But great location.

Location: Good for a one night stay if planning to be walking distance from/to train station. Otherwise very basic, only 1 pillow each person, only 2 clothes hangers. Our room was near the elevators very noisy even after midnight.

It is convenient for the railway station. We asked for a queen bed but our room was long and narrow with single beds end on rather than side by side - horrible if a couple! There is nowhere to hang clothes just a type of metal grid with a couple of hangers on it. The rooftop bar and swimming pool were closed. Good breakfast at least!

Overall very convenient to station. Was missing the soap dish in the bathroom and more hangers would have been nice.

A room booked for 2 did not have gratuity breakfast included for both of us. Pool was closed for off-season which is reasonable, however, so was the indoor rooftop bar.

Great stay! I was able to check in super early with no hassle, good since I was dying of sleep after a 12 hr flight at early morning. Didnt expect such an early check in and was expecting the luggage locker instead. There a nice terrace and they gave me two free beers, acros the street nice little cafe with two waiters with great attitude.

Liked that it was very closed to transportation as well as restaurants and interest points. Did not liked that the first room given was not cleaned. Bed had been slept on and used bottled was left in counter with water stains. Was switched to a clean but very basic room with a very uncomfortable bed.

Staff hotel friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and air conditioned. Good wifi in rooms. The property is currently being renovated and the construction noise woke us every morning at 8am and persisted all the through the day. Ensure you book a room below the 9th floor to avoid the noise. Hotel staff compensated us with free buffet breakfast each day and a complimentary late check out.

This property is good for short visits. A good place to just sleep and shower after a long day. Bathroom is okay as well. Staff were fine but didn’t have too many answers when we tried to ask them how to get to places and for assistance. So we had to figure out on our own. Also a couple of my bathroom necessities that I brought with me went missing after the room was cleaned but the staff had no idea about it which was unfortunate.

Expo hotel is a 3 min walk from the main train station and a 1 min walk from a metro line. Overall, the hotel was nice. Only downside was the bed was quite firm, but other than that, a great stay. The rooftop bar and pool were a great perk.

This hotel is under construction when I arrived wish I'd was informed of the matter. On my second day a man tried to jump off not sure if he was a worker or not. The staff laughed when I asked for a discount on terms of the suicide man as well the construction within the building. The locals would yell through out the night for unknown reasons. If you like peace & quite this is not the place. The positive is it's very close to the train/ subway or busses. The room was very small no real place to put your clothes except for a wall fixture with two hangers attached. The cleaning staff would take a very long time to clean my room due to the large volume of rooms.

Old uncomfortable beds and over-used pool
Hotel was OK as overall impression. However, the beds in the rooms were hard and were not comfortable to sleep on, we did not sleep well. The sun beds at swimming pool were occupied many times, since the hotel also sells daypasses to non-hotel guests, so the pool is over used by locals.

A very convenient place to stay while traveling by train. The hotel is in view of the sation and next to metro stops on 2 lines. It is in transition with some updates to rooms and spaces, although the quality of the updates isn't very high. The pool is great, but very small (too deep for kids). Our room was quiet and we stayed in an updated room which was nice enough.

Loved this stay
We had an amazing time! I don’t understand the lower reviews. The service was fantastic, food was great, loved the location, right next to Sants station. A few restaurants near by, I would definitely stay here again while in Barcelona!
