This hotel is basic but its in a brillant location right in the middle of everything. Room was a bit small and the bed was a bit hard but apart from that id deffenitly recommend it.

A lovely Tapas restaurant just a couple of doors up from Hotel, must go on the open top bus tours & wonderful way to see Barcelona.

Really good hotel, looks great (lots of original features), very nice and clean room (ours had a balcony), helpful staff, really excellent location. Breakfast is ok, although not great value - especially considering there are three excellent cafes all within 20 metres of the front door (so go to them for breakfast).

Beware of pickpockets, and don't carry your bag on your back. We were victims at the airport when we arrived - distracted while boarding the bus into town. But in spite of that, Barcelona is such a wonderful city, we still think it's one of the best city breaks we've ever had. One piece of advice - the old cathedral is free and well worth a visit, but Gaudi's Sagrada Familia is not really worth paying 11 euros to see inside! Also, the Barcelona City Tour buses are cheaper, less tedious, and ALOT less busy than the official Bus Turistic buses.

Excellent location. We had a room on 2nd floor at the front. No more street noise than you would expect...I didn't use the ear plugs I took. Simple breakfast ... serve yourself Scrambled Eggs on Toast...and heat up the croissant....plenty to set you up for the day. Desk staff really helpful. Excellent shower. Hairdryer in room but no kettle...take your own. Only one English speaking TV channel....BBC News...but you won't be in your room much....Las Ramblas right on your doorstep! I would definately book again.

Cellar Tapas on the Triangle is good for afternoon Tapas. The Mojito's at Menage a Trois are to die for....on the first square you find behind the hotel. Definately do the tourist bus. Picasso museum free on first sunday of the month and if you don't get there early, go later to avoid queues.

Dinner menu a bit fishy for us.

Be very - very careful about pick-pockets / street theft - before arriving in the city centre. Remain diligent at all times. Do not underestimate what they will try. Great to amble La Rambla and harbour area. Great view of city and countryside from mountain (Tredegado?) and from Mont Juic gardens. Nice beach near Olympic marina.

Room did not have any windows which made us uncomfortable when sleeping (no air) and made the room dark with no way to see outside. Otherwise very satisfied.

Santa Anna is a very good restaurant near the hotel and very reasonably priced.

The guy who runs the hotel was so nice to us, it was a pleasure to stay there.

A really very good hotel in an excellent location.Very friendly and helpfull staff. The room was clean and quite modern. Breakfast was good (nothing special though). An excellent choice for Barcelona indeed.

Find Tantarantana restaurant at the old city. Excellent food and -a non touristic place- if this is what someone looks for. Prices 20-25 Euro

The hotel was a lovely place to stay, our room was very modern and up-to-date. Breakfast was the only let-down. It was nice enough, but nothing special, and it was the same every morning. The location was superb, and the staff were friendly and helpful.Have stayed at a 4* hotel in Ramblas before and although the Breakfast was better, I would go back to Nouvel first.

Get the A1 bus from the airport. I got a taxi first time and paid £80 return. The bus goes into the square for 4 euros each way. Quick, efficient, cheap. Run every 6 minutes so you don't worry about missing the bus.Hotel is the street behind the square so it was really easy.
