Advice regarding the Metro and Camp Nou ensured our experience was perfect!

We did all the usual sights, Camp Nou, Park Guell, Sagrada Familia, Montjuic, Barcelona Cathedral,Parc de la Cuitadella and even the Zoo!

The transport link right outside took us straight to Camp Nou for only 2.15 Euro and was very easy to understand.

Watched El Clasico at the Camp Nou which is a must if you ever have the opportunity to go.

The hotel is in a fabulous location for restaurants and attractions.

Service is 5 stars, hotel is 4.5 stars, rooftop bar 5 stars, location 6 stars.

It is well located across from the harbour, it is clean, has lovely and large rooms, had a king size comfortable bed with good pillows and nice linens, and we fully recommend it.

The hotel is in a lovely position near to Port Vell and there are many good restaurants nearby.

The location is fine with a terrific roof top bar overlooking the harbor.

Everything from the wonderful location, cleanliness and above average customer service!

The hotel is in a well maintained old heritage building, in a perfect location between the gothic quarter and the water front/beaches.

The location of this hotel is great - walking distance to beach, on the edge of the Gothic district, close to Picasso museum, Barcelona cathedral, walking distance to La Sagrada (longer walk),  close to Metro trains and tons of shopping,  bars and restaurants.

Fantastic location easy walking distance to beach and city locations.

The location of the hotel was really convenviant.

We had a great time at the hotel, clean and modern, well located, friendly and amazing service.

Its located in Barri Gotic and close to our favourite district El Born.

Not only is this hotel in a wonderful location, it was exceptionally clean and very well run.

All that plus an excellent location, good rooms that can also accommodate a family, etc.

Great location on the port view side of the Gothic.

Reasonable prices for the quality 
Very helpful and pleasant staff 
Very comfortable and nice rooms 
Convenient location 
The children and grown ups three generations all very happy.

The room was clean, bigger than expected, there was champagne waiting for us.

Excellent hotel,very friendly and welcoming, good for the city, Beach or for relaxing on the rooftop, rooms are excellent, lovely breakfast, staff very friendly and attentive, nothing is a problem.

The rooms are comfortable and well appointed.

The Premium room was spacious and was ideal for us .

Our room was extremely comfortable and the breakfasts were very good.

Welcoming, friendly staff, spotlessly clean room, lovely rooftop terrace restaurant/bar with gorgeous views.

They informed us it had arrived and placed it in our room!

The room was magnificent- and perfect for the last part of our vacation.

The rooms are beautiful and I can highly recommend this.

The rooms are good, we stayed in the new part of the hotel.

The hotel was beautiful, in a lovely old building and with a very comfortable room and great service.

Large, clean room with a balcony overlooking the marina.

This place feels quite new from the lobby to the room.

Family room was very spacious- 2 proper beds for the children.

Everyone from the front desk to the restaurant to the people who cleaned the rooms were extremely polite and accommodating.

However the pools are hilariously small and any room located near the service elevator is probably pretty noisy in the morning.

But our room was small, with no view, the window overlooked an alley and had a curtain pulled shut for privacy, which made the whole room dark.

Only disappointment, was the room was a little small for the price paid - not like those pictures.

The hotel is small and only has 30 rooms.

The hotel offered a room for three adults and a fair rate (though the room was a bit small and had limited drawer/closet space.

Our room was very small and felt congested.

If you get a high room and a small tree you are set!!

The terrace in the room was too tiny to use

The rooms are small and very dark with just a small glass door for light and you can see the man in his bed opposite in the run down apartments.

The room we had was tiny and with a view straight into the neighbours flat.

There is music late at night on the roof and noise in the street,

but we were on the first floor, which was a bit noisy from street and sidewalk traffic.

Our room was very nice even facing the busy road and could hear noise,

The only negative would be that the front rooms facing the street can be noisy, however I knew this would be the case,

There was a very narrow balcony with the only room to stand with no seeds or table there was a very narrow balcony with only room to stand with no seats or table However as I mentioned above we could not open this door at night due to the road noise.

However the double glazing blocked completely all sound from the street.

The only thing I would change is to stay on a higher floor next time (I was on the 2nd floor), as the noise from the street below me carried into my room when trying to sleep my last night.

though we overlooked a sometimes busy street we barely heard any street noise with the dual windows.

Our room was unfortunately located above that street which was very noisy at night

Although we were warned that night noise is high in Barcelona we would have wished that our room would have been more protected from street noise which never seemed to stop

We were on the second floor facing the street so it got a little noisy at times.

but the glazing meant that we couldn't hear the noise from the road at all.

If you put two suitcases on the ground then you don't have much space to walk at all. But my biggest issue was the noise from the street (Barcelona is loud everywhere!)

Lower floors I expect suffer from some street noise later as the bars stay open until the early hours

The location for us was perfect.

Ask for a sea view room as the rooms on street can be quite noisy.

.. forward facing rooms get some road noise and unless you are on the top floor, the trees obscure the views of the marina.

Nice balcony/sitting area just outside our door, overlooking the lobby and out at the moored boats.

Large clean rooms, quiet property, beautiful rooftop and wonderful views I cannot say enough good things about this Hotel and its staff.

We had drinks and dinner on the rooftop, enjoying the beautiful views of the Barcelona harbor.

The rooftop bar and dipping pools are amazing with sweeping views of the yacht harbor, ocean in distance, gondolas, etc.

The roof terrace/pool and bar area had great views over the marina definitely worth a visit.

Loved the hotel, clean, friendly helpful staff and amazing view over the harbour.

The hotel is clean, located in a very convenient location, you have a great view to the harbor and La Rambla is just a block or two away.

Particularly the roof terrace restaurant is a must see, perfect views and very good food.

Stunning views and dj’s make the night simply perfect.

Amazing rooftop view, the pools are rather small

The location was all ready walk to the sea and Gothic quarter!Quarter!!

The hotel staff were excellent, the hotel food was excellent, the hotel itself was excellent and very nice and clean, the hotel rooftop bar was an excellent touch with a great view.

This time we got room no 11 with a nice view to the harbour,

Our waterfront facing room had double pane windows so very quiet at night, even with fun loving groups walking by at all hours.

Nice rooftop bar with view over the harbour.

When it came time to depart, they had happily organized a taxi for us to the airport and even walked us out to the car.

Just 5 minutes walk from las Ramblas and the Metro.

From the moment we arrived, even before we walked in, Rueben came and met us to get our luggage.

The location was perfect, on the edge of the gothic quarter and the marina; 5 minute walk to la rambla and 15 minute walk to many Gaudi attractions.

We enjoyed walking out and wandering the streets for tapas or just people-watching.

The gothic quarter is on your doorstep, Barceloneta is a five minute walk away, as is La Rambla.

Fantastic location for both metro and walking to explore the city, we will definitely return

We loved the location of this hotel as we were able to walk to the waterfront and gothic quarter easily.

The hotel staff couldn’t do more to accommodate my wife and I with a complementary bottle of cava on my birthday, 12:00 check out and being able to leave out baggage until our flight at the end of the day, meaning we didn’t have to walk around Barcelona on our final day with our baggage.

The hotel it’s self was well situated minutes walk from La Rambla, Barcelneta, and Port Vell.

It's very easy to go to and from, walking, by taxi, by bus, or by Metro.

Very helpful and friendly staff; our bags were safely stored and brought already to the room when it was ready (yes, we were definitely too early to arrive in the hotel); excellent location just next to the harbor on the edge of the old city; plenty of public transport in vicinity and easy to walk to key attractions.

I would recommend taking a taxi from Airport (15min $30) instead of bus and train and walk 10min with luggage.

Hotel location is simply great, close to city center as well as only a 20 min walk from the beach.

Hotel Duquesa de Cardona

small room

street quietness

room

location

view

A couple of other tips:

- Camp Nou and La Sagrada Familia are quite a walk away from the centre,

Wifi made it even nicer :) and of course the game at Camp Nou!

We used the tube to get the further afield places like Parc Guell, Camp Nou, Mount Tibidarbo etc.

Got taxis to Camp Nou and Fountains at Placa Espanol (must see!).

Only: No mini-fridge and the windows could not be opened :/ (one we could tilt only).

I would have Liked a small fridge in the room,

Hotel furnished to high standard except for lack of fridges in rooms.

Price Quality Ratio not sufficient (namely 180 euro per night off season) : e. G. No tea/coffee in room, nor refrigerator.

The only recommendation I would have is a small fridge in the room to keep water cold.

Would say that it would have been nice to have a kettle and small Fridge in the room.

My suggestion would be to have a small refrigerator in each guest room.

Breakfast was not our cup of tea, a lot of sweet.

Only thing stopping this from being a perfect score was a lack of kettle and tea options in the room

Added to the cons, the room doesn’t have any mini refrigerator neither does it a brush for cleaning the toilet.

Also no kettle facilities in room and only shower gel provided was disappointing and I expected more.

I expected a small refrigerator and a kettle in the room.

but be mindful that they don’t include toiletries or drink making facilities & the room does not have a fridge.

The amenities of this hotel are basic and rooms don’t include things like ice buckets, a small fridge, or an iron and ironing board.

The only thing i would say it is missing is a mini fridge, it would have been good to put our bottled water in there

A few down points - no fridge or kettle in the room (though apparently you could hire a kettle from reception) and the rooftop bar was pretty crowded when we visited.

Very nice breakfast! 5 minute walk from La Rambla and 2 minutes from Dassanges (?)

It is only a couple of blocks from La Rambla, just a ways up from the Columbus monument.

The location is fantastic- just a 15 minute bus ride to the nearest beach and a 5 minute walk to the metro station and La Rambla.

Only a couple of minutes walk from La Rambla.

It is an excellent location, close to la Rambla and in walking distance to bar and restaurants.

It’s very close to transit and la rambla 
The bathroom floor was dirty when we arrived and it would be great to have a mini fridge in the room.

The hotel is centrally located and within easy reach of La Rambla and the Gothic Quarter,

Port, La Rambla, Bari Ghotic, beach You can get by walk from hotel.

Great location, near la rambla, and the #4 bus stop of hop on hop off orange line.

The location is top in a street paralel of de La Rambla.

Great location as only a short walk from La Rambla and near to 2 metro stations.

Amazing customer service, a tranquil setting and only a couple minute walk from La Rambla equals a highly recommended hotel!

The location is 10 mins walk from la Rambla and a multitude of restaurants, clubs and bars.

Just a few minutes from La Rambla and the port.

Location close to La Rambla and enjoyed the small rooftop pool and bar.

The hotel itself is in a great location, around a 2 minute walk from La Rambla.

I stayed 3 nights at this hotel, which is conveniently located within a 5-minute walk to La Rambla, a 5-minute walk to the subway station, and 15-minute walk to Barcelona Cathedral.

The room was spacious, very clean and modern.

The hotel is contemporary and very clean.

Very modern and clean and the staff were friendly.

Very modern and clean, no faults during our stay.

My room was comfortable, clean and modern.

This modern hotel has excellent facilities

Firstly, other reviews say that the location feels a little unsafe,

Unfortunately, the hotel seemed to be the location of the homeless so lots of daily Police presence.

And you need a key to access the front door/reception area of the hotel, so it stops any non-hotel guests from just wandering in.

The location is awful and feels unsafe with children.

A homeless man was camped out directly in front.

The hotel is located in a slightly scruffy neighbourhood

The only thing that got me concerned was the location of the hotel because of the neighbourhood it was kind of strange and dangerous until 20:00 it is fine,

It’s walking distance to La Rambla, the Gothic quarter and various metro stations (Paral-lel, Drassanes), so great for sightseeing, 

Negatives:
The street where the hotel is located is quite rough, you can easily see a bunch of homeless people not too far from the hotel entrance, and I didn’t feel safe walking back to the hotel after 8pm.

Very bad location, drug addicts next to hotel, street from center to hotel is shady, dark and you may feel insecure.

We had no trouble at all with the area, there were a few homeless people sleeping near the hotel at night

For those making comments about the area being dodgy or unsafe we just don’t get that at all.

Seemed to be an area of vulnerability as there were some homeless around,

The area directly around the hotel can be a little intimidating in the evenings - it is a dodgy part of town.

however some what basic & a watch out for the neighbourhood.

There are homeless people in the area, as there are in other areas of Barcelona

The major issue with this hotel is the neighbourhood.

The floor makes a lot of noise so the neighbours downstairs can hear everything.

Great patio for breakfast and rooftop pool.

We enjoyed the roof top pool which had fabulous views of the city.

A little pool on the rooftop as a bonus for the kids.

The rooftop pool offers a fantastic view of west/north/east Barcelona.

It’s got a cute rooftop pool and view of the city!

The rooftop pool is an excellent place to relax after a bit of sightseeing.

Very helpful friendly staff, giving directions, help with how to book tours, rooms were big and clean, rooftop pool was clean and has a beautiful view of the city.

Amazing views of the city from the rooftop pool.

The rooftop pool has a nice view of the city.

The second reason to make sure you stay at this hotel is the rooftop pool and bar - the view of Barcelona from the 11th floor is MAGNIFICENT!

The staff were all nice and front desk were friendly and helpful
The roof top pool is a nice extra and there are some great views.

The pool on the roof top is not really a pool rather a big bath.

They have an infinity pool at the rooftop which shows a great view over the city.

The rooms are clean and the pool on the rooftop is amazing and gives you a wonderful view over the city.

We stayed at the Andante Hotel for our three-night trip to Barcelona because it has two metro stations—Drassanes and Paral•lel—within walking distances.

The hotel is in a great location as well, and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go.

It was such a great experience   Barcelona is a good experience and the hotel was a great price and Everything was so close to walk to.

Ideally located a 10 minute walk from Las Ramblas, the Andante is a really nice hotel.

Best city break we had location a short walk to la Rambles enjoyed all 3 days.

The hotel was relatively easy to find, just a few minutes walk from 2 different metro stations.

Near enough T o some great areas to walk to .rooftop pool and bar area a great added bonus with superb views of the city.

Easily walked to Opera, later to port for cruise.

We were able to walk to the Cathedral and Palau de la Musica Catalonia.

Easy walking to tourist attractions near by and to hop on/off bus route.

Amazing location, coffee shop 365 nearby, 5 mins walk to metro and las ramblas and the pool area is so amazing for a cool down and rest.

We felt safe walking in all directions from the hotel.

We walked to the Gothic Quarter and explored for hours.

It is set in a great location just a 5 minute walk from Las Ramblas and about 20 minutes from the harbour.
