5/5
I highly recommend this hotel! Our room was very spacious with a beautiful view of the city. Breakfasts are very varied, plenty of vegetables and fruits, many types of bread, additionally they can prepare for you eggs or coffee with vegan milk. Swimming pool area is really lovely, however water was freezing. The staff was very helpful.

The staff is really great, more than great. From the moment you come in, from the doorman to the receptionist, to all the people who work in the bar and restaurant. Service with a big smile, they make a connection and treat you well. The view is really beautiful and the food is great. We love the wellness area and the stay over in the room is nice as well. The staff helped us with all kinds of questions about Barcelona. They took care of our car. We will be back again, hopefully this year. For us more than a 5 star value ⭐️ Gracias!
