"This was a terrific choice for us in Barcelona before boarding a cruiseship. Our room was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Air conditioning and elevators made the stay easy. And breakfast was amazing, even though the room was filled with tourists who obviously hadn't eaten in months. (Eye roll) The hotel was in walking distance of places to see and cabs were everywhere. Very pleased with our stay at the Rialto."

"We enjoyed staying at this hotel when we visited Barcelona earlier this week. The property is well maintained and located near the city center, within walking distance of many attractions, shops, and restaurants. We loved the clean, comfortable room, the friendly staff, and the daily breakfast, which offered plenty of options. We even tried out public transport, as a metro stop is right across from the hotel. We found getting around Barcelona by metro to be both convenient and a great experience. We will definitely stay here again!"
