The location was perfect for us and easy to get into the centre via metro or taxi. The room was incredible, so clean and comfortable. The staff were so helpful and friendly, one of the best places I’ve ever stayed.

I have nothing negative about this place.

Great location perfect for anyone who loves nature. The Terrance room was exceptional, everyone was very professional and kind, 10/10 service they even picked up and delivered my Uber Eats delivery to to my room ( barely any 5 star hotel does this) Also you must try their 2 star Michelin restorant it was an exceptional experience, was blown away. Very happy with my stay.

I wasn’t able to get late check out till 5pm because another guest was coming in that room but they let gave me a free late checkout till 2pm which was awesome.

The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the location itself is lovely — quiet, residential, and surrounded by greenery. The restaurant’s three-Michelin-star team delivers beautifully prepared dishes, and we appreciated the concept of a guest-only lunch tasting, which adds a sense of exclusivity for those staying at the hotel.

On arrival, after carrying our own bags down to reception, we were simply gestured to wait in front of the desk until the staff member was ready to check us in—rather than being invited to sit or offered a refreshment, as one might expect at a property of this calibre. On departure, there was again no dedicated porter service; a front-desk staff member kindly assisted, but we ultimately found ourselves helping her carry our own bags down the stairs and out to the taxi. Room service, though well prepared, consistently took a long time to arrive and was never cleared the same day, as there seemed to be no pickup service in place. Our junior suite was also considerably smaller than anticipated; the living area was compact and didn’t quite resemble the more spacious layouts shown online. When we inquired about a possible change, we were told the hotel was fully booked, with no follow-up or alternative offered. The suite itself showed several maintenance issues—black scuff marks on the parquet and walls, a broken hair dryer, and curtains that didn’t fully close. Small details, but ones that could have easily elevated even a modestly sized room had they been addressed. Instead, combined with the overall lack of warmth and attentiveness, the stay began to feel more like a serviced apartment than a five-star hotel. Service throughout felt polite but disengaged. Between breakfast and lunch, for instance, there was no staff presence in the garden—no one came by to offer coffee, water, or light service. The gym was compact and minimally equipped, missing a treadmill or any broader wellness concept such as yoga or guided movement. The hotel’s neighborhood is undeniably beautiful—quiet, leafy, and distinctly Barcelonian—yet somewhat removed from the city’s main attractions. It would have been wonderful to receive thoughtful recommendations on nearby cafés, boutiques, or hidden corners to explore, especially given our nearly week-long stay.
