Building & History
Housed in a colonial stone building with a clock tower that originally served as the Banco Hispano Colonial headquarters, the hotel features high ceilings, antique furnishings, Chesterfield sofas in the lobby, and maintains its historical character while offering modern amenities.
“This hotel's location in the Gothic Quarter places it at the center of Barcelona's historical and cultural heart. Formerly a bank headquarters, the building has stylish colonial architecture that offers a unique experience. I especially note the personalized service, comfortable rooms, and a cocktail bar, which I think makes it an appealing choice.”

I found the staff very helpful. The location was awesome I could easily reach the waterfront and the Gothic Quarter. Many places to eat were close by too.
The hotel is showing its age. The elevator doors created terrible noises. the windows did not seal well at all.

superb city stay
convenient locationample spaceluxurious toiletriesconstant noise
The hotel is situated in a very convenient area. i found i could easily walk to many main attractions and the bus station was nearby. the staff efficiently stored my luggage upon my early arrival. my room offered ample space along with excellent views. the bathroom featured luxurious toiletries and a notably large rainfall shower. The water pressure was great.
the noise from ongoing roadworks outside impacted my stay slightly. it was difficult to fully relax due to the constant noise, especially early in the morning. quieter windows would greatly improve the experience.

the staff was friendly enough, which met my basic expectations.
The room felt quite dated. I noticed the showerhead had poor pressure. additionally, the safe required an extra fee. I thought this was unacceptable. i've never encountered that kind of charge before.
