Overall Ratings & Reviews La Casa Del Sol Hotel Gracia District, Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy

What a fantastic property! Having never been to Barcelona before, we were “green” as to where to stay. The Gràcia quarter was amazing and this hotel is at the heart of it all. Located right next to a central square full of shops and restaurants, the area comes alive in the late afternoon in to the evening. Families out just living life! Our balcony overlooked it all, and even though the room was extremely quiet, we chose to have our balcony door open to soak it all in. The rooms are amazing, the staff extremely helpful and everything you require is mere steps away. Stay here, you won’t regret it. Sonder does it right!

This property as advertised is not what it actually is, unfortunately the lower entry has a sewage smell & is cramped & not well kept! The upper hallways make you feel your in a container box & very drab! The rooms are at best basic with few amenities including no place for clothes! Very small bath! Not up to Travelocity standards! BTW the staff were all wonderful & caring! We did not stay, but left immediately for another hotel!

Great property great location easy access to city centre 10 journeys on the underground for €13.75

room is spacious, clean, and tastefully minimalistic. front concierge is very nice and helpful. area feels safe. it's a bit of a walk to metro station and tourist attractions. If anyone is talking in the hallway outside, you will hear every word.

Clean and practical with great location. Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly at all times. Wish we could of stayed longer!

A truly great experience!

This hotel is fantastic! Clean, up to date, and perfect location. Judith the receptionist could not be more helpful! I highly recommend staying at this hotel.

It was great. There was no hand soap which was strange but otherwise it was a great place to stay. I wish also they had provided outlet converters but i dont know if other places do that.

Clean, quiet, nice area. Staff helpful. But the AC was not working, room got quite stuffy. Noisy with window open.

Fantastic customer service! The Sonder chat in the app made things so easy to communicate for calling taxi's, needing an umbrella, directions, and assistance when i lost my phone on the street!! Plaza del Sol is very cool, but definitely adds a day/night noise factor to the stay due to the bar and folks hanging out but the balcony room is awesome. Ear plugs are provided on bedstand just in case you are a light sleeper. Room and linens are nice, facility overall is clean. The hallway to rooms has a motion sensored light, so it was interesting when the elevator doors opened up to a dark hall, but lights quickly turned on! Overall would stay here again, or any Sonder hotel, this is the 3rd location I have stayed with Sonder, and have enjoyed each stay very much!

Fantastic mattress!!! Thank you! Super comfortable modest accommodation, in terrific location.

Excelente atención, la habitación es acogedora, decorada con buen gusto, me encantó

Very fun neighborhood.

Stayed here for 4 nights. The location right on plaça del sol was fantastic, right in the middle of local culture and off the beaten tourist path of the city center. Judith at the front desk was also super accommodating, making my stay easy and pleasant.

For a 3 star its fine except noise from the plaza if you are unlucky to get one of those rooms.

Great!

Literally one if the worst hotel experiences I’ve had, especially considering the price. Hotel room smelled super strongly of bleach, lights were not working, faucets have these complicated handles, my bed was two mattresses pushed together which can be fine, except the bed frame wasn’t made to hold two so they slid apart, it’s directly right next to a noisy plaza when the room is advertised as “sound-proof, and they couldn’t even call me a cab because no one is at the property….when they did call me a cab in advance, it was 20 minutes late and caused me to be late for dinner reservation. Thank you never staying at a Sonder hotel again EVER As some one that travels frequently and up to 200 nights last year, I have a decent sample size when knowing what to expect and this was just horrible.

The La Gracia neighborhood is a wonderful community filled with great local businesses. You will find fantastic food, coffee, bakeries shopping and groceries in a safe walkable community. We loved our stay at Sonder in Placa de Sol. The plaza is a wonderful area where the local community activities occur. Sonder placa de Sol is a very walkable location close to other neighborhoods, public transportation and everything you need. The staff is amazing, always there to help or answer questions. They have excellent recommendations and are very accommodating. The space is perfect for a stay in La Gracia. It was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. The shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided are a high quality natural brand and was a nice added touch. The view of the plaza from the room balcony was perfect. Very charming place to watch the local life and enjoy the community. We hope to be back soon! Thanks for an unforgettable experience.

The hotel is located in a lovely area of Barcelona with small squares, cafes, restaurants and shops. There is a supermarket located within 50m and it was nice to feel like we were in an authentic Spanish area rather than a tourist hotspot. The hotel itself was clean and well presented. The staff there (between 10 and 6) went out of their way to assist us, showing us places to go on the map, finding umbrellas when it rained and sorting out any issues we had. They spoke amazing English and were super friendly. There is no milk in the room so we got some from the supermarket and the team put a small fridge in our room to keep it cold. The room we had faced away from the main square so was quiet (the main square was so busy on a weekend). We did hear a lot of noise from other guests in the corridor as the walls and door aren’t soundproofed that much. The room was clean but needed to have maintenance work done on it (AC not working, sockets loose). The bed was positioned next to a wall so hard for the second person to get out of bed without waking the other. There is a glass door on the shower/toilet which we found odd and there are only paper cups for the tea/coffee. After a few uses they became a big soggy. Not sure why they couldn’t have a china cup and glass as there is a bar downstairs. There is an amazing roof top garden which was so lovely to chill on and caught lots of sun. I know the price is at the lower end, but with a few small changes it would be amazing.

Very nice area. Walking area
