Location and Rooftop are best features

Thu Aug 14 2025 22:31:41 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by familygotravel

We chose Condes de Barcelona for its location and rooftop and those aspects didn’t disappoint. The hotel is well positioned, with a nice rooftop bar (open to public with seemingly no priority for in-house guests) and a small pool area that’s pleasant for a quick dip (though note that it isn’t serviced). Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. I booked a Condal Paseo de Gràcia Room, an upgrade from standard. The room itself was dark, cramped, and bizarrely configured. The bathroom was so small that two people couldn’t be in there at the same time. You had to shut the door just to open the tiny shower cubicle, which felt almost claustrophobic. The room needs cleaning and maintenance.

Excellent value for money in a perfect location

I spent 4 nights in this historic establishment. The rooms are very comfortable, although the design is not my favourite. Hotel staff were easy going and issues were sorted out quickly. The central rooms overlooking the elevator shaft and the lobby are a bit wired and can feel claustrophobic. In spite of this I would recommend this hotel for the bed quality, excellent location and price, which I found to be extremely competitive.

Terrible communication

Tue Jul 01 2025 12:13:23 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by Teddygtravels

This hotel is in a great location and the staff were great. My only complaint is I asked for assistance for a private driver to bring us to the hotel from the airport. I received a link to arrange it and I paid. When we arrived in Barcelona there were two drivers, one I paid for and one the hotel arranged. I used the one the hotel arranged and was charged for both. I don’t understand what happened, but I don’t believe I should be charged twice.

The Miracle

Fri May 02 2025 17:23:05 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by Compass45031917818

In a time of crisis, that was the blackout, this Hotel was a miracle, they were very helpful and nice to us. Because our flight as been cancelled, and upon searching for room's in every hotel nearby, we were exhausted. Just in a corner of a beautiful street, it appears to us. All the staff were very welcome, and kind. I recommend to all those who want to visit Barcelona. ❤️❤️ And take you very much ☺️
