Catalonia Eixample 1864

From start to finish everything about this property and the whole stay was exceptional. We had planned to drop our luggage and come back after checkin as we were an hour early. However, we were greeted with a welcome cava and given access to our rooms. The hotel was beautiful, clean and felt luxurious but not pretentious. Our second bedroom was upgraded to the same as our deluxe pool room and they located next to each other. The room was beautiful, plenty of room and an amazing outdoor terrace and mini pool, that was hot enough to use in February. It is also a sun trap, and warm enough to sit and enjoy. The selection of toiletries was the best I’ve seen, and they were replenished if needed. As well as the usual items, toothbrushes, razors, sewing kits and more were available. We easily managed to watch programmes cast from our laptop onto the large wide screen. Unfortunately the pool was shut due to mandatory cleaning, however the terrace and pool area were lovely. Breakfast was plentiful and the selection managed to feed the most fussy of teenagers without a problem. Lactose free milk was available. Fresh omelette station as well as hot and cold food. Room service was available, quick and really reasonably priced. The staff were so helpful, one gentleman on reception went out of his way to give us his top restaurants in the area, and happily spent time going through the map and giving recommendations. We loved it so much, that we are already planning a short break next year to hopefully recreate just how relaxing and special it was. The location is also just so good. With major transport links such a short walk away and some great sites within walking distance.

Very warm welcome from Reception Staff. I had booked a twin & was given a double - this was sorted immediately & we were transferred to a lovely twin with walk in shower. Room size & facilities great for a city break, Breakfast was fantastic with a great selection of hot & cold choice. Fabulous area to stay - just make sure you pick up a map or have google maps on your phone. We got a Taxi to and from the Airport which meant a door to door transfer which was fab & meant no waiting around.

This is my second stay. While the room was smaller than the room I had in 2023 it was still fine.

The staff were fantastic, very helpful. We had a problem with our original room which they resolved very efficiently. They gave us some excellent restaurant recommendations. Elias in particular was very helpful. The location was great for getting to everywhere we wanted to visit. The room was comfortable and clean.

The room was lovely, we had the private pool. It was a little smaller than we expected based on the pictures and limited storage space but still a OK size for two people. The bed was huge, bathroom was lovely and terrace was beautiful. The seperate rooftop pool and bar area was one of the nicest I've seen. We didn't eat at the hotel, as there's amazing places nearby so didn't need to.
