I absolutely love this property and believe this will be the go to hotel when I visit Barcelona again. It is convenient for transportation (taxi, metro), dining options ( right next to el nacional), shopping (right on Passeig de Gracia), and cocktail bars. It’s also a short walk to casa batlo and other gaudi attractions.

This is a very cute hotel and our 4 day stay here was superb. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They gave us some great recommendations for places to eat. The morning breakfast/coffee bar was nice, but don’t be late. We also enjoyed the evening wine/snacks every evening. We will be back if we come to Barcelona again.
