We had thee great nights here. The staff was welcoming. The room was comfortable- stayed in a room with 3 twins. They offers a small fridge, Wi-Fi and AC, although I had a hard time with getting the AC to a happy medium. The space is clean, offers a bathroom, water station and microwave in the hallway. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location! Walkable to many sites and the metro. Room was simple and clean. Beds were not the most comfortable so a long stay may have been tough, but to be in that location, it was perfect for our one-night stay.

I stayed at the Hotel Canton for an extended time (12 days) so I felt I got to know the facility very well. My room was modern in all respects. And both my room and the hotel were spotlessly clean. The entire staff at the desk were friendly and helpful. When I checked in, I requested a room with lots of light above all else. The room I got (207) had two glass french doors leading out to a generously sized balcony (approx. 3 by 12 feet) which I would use in late afternoons for reading. The shower was the best I've experienced, with outstanding water pressure. It was a pleasure! The hotel has several convenience stores very close by. Overall, I was very pleased with my choice and would stay there again.

Hidden gem, Affordable and safe

Hotel Canton is a hidden gem (literally!). Barcelona has been the most expensive city to stay in on our trip so far, but this location was absolutely perfect. If you are looking for an affordable hotel that is right where the action is, this is the place.

Canton Hotel is a modern, comfortable spot in Barcelona’s historic center. It’s an easy walk to landmarks, the room and area had everything I needed for a great stay. I especially enjoyed wandering the narrow streets, walking to the Palau de la Música and Gaudí locations. Highly recommend for a convenient and enjoyable stay for solo travelers and mature adults.
