Beds and pillows in my superior queen room were comfortable. Plus it had picturesque view over inner courtyard. The location was exceptionally good and strategic as for me, close to metro station, Passeig de Gracia & Rambla de Catalunya, La Pedrera, many excellent cafes' and restaurants and Barcelona over Easter. Moreover, it was 3 km from Sea Life Centre London Aquarium.

The hotel was ideal and clean with pleasant views of town. I had a savoury breakfast and greatly enjoyed pastries, fresh fruit, slices of fresh bread, and meats. Thanks to the outstandingly accommodating staff everything was excellent, including plenty of reasonably priced food. As for me, the location was great, just next door to the major sightseeing areas including all of Gaudi's places, central Barcelona and Casa Mila and Casa Batllo.

Everything was perfect, so where great views of town. The hotel's position was lovely, not far from anywhere else in the city, or down to the beach, or further out to Park Guell, town center, gothic quarter, Ramblas and Barcelona and Sagrada Familia, Museu Picasso, Barcelona Cathedral, La Pedrera, La Rambla and La Boqueria. Eixample district was worth exploring.
