this is a no frills budget hotel. As you would expect the room was small but if you will be out exploring the city all day like me, it's perfect. It's well located to most attractions. I was able to walk to all the places I wanted to visit. The staff were friendly and even offered to look after my suitcase for me after I checked out if my flight wasn't for a while. The bed (and pillows) was comfortable and the shower had good pressure temperature. I was on the 3rd floor and it wasn't loud at night (you will hear the cathedral bells though as it is very close). No aircon but a ceiling fan that worked well enough. I would like liked a shelf in the shower so I had somewhere to put my shampoo/soap rather then having to leave them on the floor each time but not the end of the world. A kettle to make tea/coffee would also have been nice but again, for the price I wasn't really expecting it. Overall it was a convenient place to stay, close to everything. I would stay again as I had no issues.…this is a no frills budget hotel. As you would expect the room was small but if you will be out exploring the city all day like me, it's perfect.

Hotel was is in prime location. If you like the hustle and bustle, this is the place for you. You will hear noise all night but is in walkable distance to many stores and attractions.…

Last morning in Barcelona but we’d definitely recommend a sojourn here. Imagine the city has changed quite dramatically since I was last here 24 years ago but a lovely place to visit out of season. Weather a very comfortable 15-20 degrees, a nice warm spring so not too hot or cold to get out and about and explore. We found the most beautiful independent boutique hotel called the Wittmore. Tucked away in an alley in the gothic quarter right by all the action but at the same time an oasis of calm. Couldn’t ask for more from an affordable 5* star hotel and their philosophy covers quite an old school etiquette of no children and no photography so less of the Instagram influencer nonsense and more old school art of relaxation and conversation! Amazing what taking away the need to post on social media does to the atmosphere of a place. Definitely get the breakfast and make sure you visit Eduardo the mixologist! Very rare to find a hotel where every little detail has been thought through and the upmost care put into everything, from music to aroma! There’s even a fabulous roaring fire and calming green wall in the courtyard. The staff couldn’t have been nicer and the room couldn’t have been any more comfortable even if they tried! The blackout windows and absolute silence on an evening makes for a great sleep! The rooftop bar and pool has cracking views and must be a delight when the city gets just too hot. The location is spot on for most of the places you’ll want to visit…Last morning in Barcelona but we’d definitely recommend a sojourn here.
