The hotel is located in las Ramblas and in the heart of Muslim residential and business neighborhood. Although most overseas flights arrive at 7-8 am, the check in is only offered after 3pm. Upon arrival we were promised the room at 1 pm, however, it was as not ready and we had to spread out to sleep on the lobby couch. Multiple pleas for our room keys went unanswered until we asked to see the manager. The staff are all non-native and come from all over the world. They did, however, adopted a poor, “go back where you came from” attitude of the locals. If you like being disrespected and feel unworthy, this hotel will be perfect for you. Location: very far from public transportation such as metro, train and bus. Add to that a massive construction work all along La Ramblas, Pope’s visit with closed streets and main traffic arteries and you will have a clear picture of navigating to and from the Barcelo Raval hotel. Room: very good, clean and comfortable. We had a suite with 180 degree panoramic views of Barcelona. The bed offered excellent soft sheets, a variety of pillows to choose from, whirlpool tub for two facing Park Montjuic. Some functional design details were not well considered: the height of the coffee station - being 5 feet tall I had to actually reach high above and after a couple of times that got physically tiring. Also having a main light control in the living room (which controlled the bathroom, bedroom and closet) was not great.

Clean, big and comfortable room. Very friendly staff. Fantastic rooftop view.

.

Room was clean and tidy and big enough for two adults and a child up to the age of 10 Unfortunately our son is 15 and 6ft 3 so the made up sofa bed was not great this should be stipulated in the information for a triple room. The door to the toilet was far to heavy to open and close for me Breakfast was good but I would invest in a better toaster. Rooftop bar was great brilliant views all the staff were friendly and helpful especially at check in.

Clean room , unsafe area

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT- The hotel itself is surrounded by a busy are and "park" (see photo). While the location is ideal to the gothic quarter (best part of the hotel) it's not a safe area at night. Lower level floors on ALL SIDES are loud all the time. We were awoken by homeless people screaming early morning hours. When I went to the front desk to ask about moving rooms due to the yelling homeless people that live outside the hotel they told me they could move me but it would be an additional charge per night. When we booked there was no where you could select a higher level floor. We had already booked a premium room. I inquired further about the charge for higher level floor where they told me it would be the exact same room I booked but on a higher floor. It was very clear that noise from the lower floors is a consistent problem for this hotel and rather than attempt to fix it they profit off it by charging more to move you to a higher floor. This hotel shows pictures of a "pool" and states it has one- what it has is not a swimmable "pool". The rooftop has a very beautiful view definitely a highlight of the hotel but closes at midnight, has poor upkeep, and was smaller than the photos showed. The house keeping staff is wonderful. They brought fresh towels, new water bottles, made the bed every day very happy. This hotel is not for families. Walls are very thin...we heard the couple next to us. Steamer in the room was great. Hotel was run down, chipping paint, stains, ect.

I’ve stayed here previously- it definitely could use a bit of updating. The sliding closet doors were old and hard to move. The bedding was nice. The pool is not really usable as a pool (it’s super small) and like everyone says- not the best area - especially for a single woman. However- the staff is friendly and you’ll sleep like the dead because of the blackout curtains in the room!

A well placed hotel where you can walk to all the main within 10-15 mins. There are lots of local restaurants and bars frequented by locals ( which we think shows they are good). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooftop pool is ideal for cooling off after sunbathing. To be highly recommend.

Everything was great and it isnt too far from la rambla and easy access to the metro. The rooftop is also a plus it was so beautiful especially during sunset hours.

Absolutely no complaints .

No breakfast

Nice hotel

The room was clean and the breakfast was great.

great location right in middle of walking in part of the city, new, clean, safe, would definitely stay again (bring power adapter usa to euo)

Funky modern hotel with the highlight being the rooftop bar. Friendly uncomplicated service. Location wise close to Las Ramblas some dodgy areas nearby

Great location for walking the city. Easy walk to all sites. No need for a car or public transportation once you arrive. Great restaurants and coffee shops right around corner.

Great staff, very friendly and helpful. Lovely meal at decent prices. Breakfast was excellent!

Good hotel overall. Rooftop terrace was incredible. The location is a bit sketchy but other than that very close to main attractions.

Friendly staff, great breakfast, wonderful rooftop bar and live entertainment. What a great stay! Will be back!
