Gran Hotel Barcino

Review by: merriconeag , Harpswell, United States

Stayed: Sep 2009

Hotel is lacking when compared to other 4- star rated hotels in the same area.
The good: Location is close to La Rambla and port and restaurants. Room and bath are fairly good sized.
The bad: Staff are unfriendly and apathetic. Elevators were out of service during our visit (resulting in carrying our luggage up 4 flights of stairs). Rooms were not very clean and bedspread covers were filthy. Twin bed mattresses were overly firm and springs squeaked noisily. Television reception was snowy at best and unwatchable.

Granted, we didn't pay much for this hotel room but it shouldn't be rated a 4-star.

The rooms were pretty small and it was very noisy. Great central location. Don't use laundry service!!!! The restaurant was not open the entire time that we were there!

I would recommend it to whoever is looking to see the heart of Barcelona and does not mind a bit of noise. We requested a quiet room with king/queen bed , initially we were given a quiet but tiny room with less than double bed, we changed it to a bigger room but noisier .

very clean ,huge bathroom,but overall not a 4 star hotel.
