Nuria was very helpful from the time we arrived until arranging transportation when we checked out. There's a nice lounge with 24 hour coffee tea and water as well as a free happy hour 7-8. The location was off the street so everything was very quiet, but easy to access the main street.

Hotel Pratik Essens is located right in the middle of shopping area on Passig de Gracia. There is a dining place (El Nationale) right in front of the hotel. Even though it is busy area, the room is quiet and noise-protected ensuring a good sleep. It is easy to get a taxi to go anywhere in Barcelona from the hotel. The hotel staffs are helpful and professional.

The hotel’s location can not be better, close to many tourist attractions ( some are within walking distance), yet, it’s sitting back from the top busy street in Barcelona. Tons of food and shopping places close by too. Room is very spacious with sitting area, bathroom design is very modern yet unique too. There is also a very comfortable lounge on the second floor, with access all day long. Hotel staffs are very nice too. I would strongly recommend this hidden gem to friends. Thanks! 👍👍
