The Originals Boutique, Le Palacete (Relais du Silence)

The hotel was spotless, very chic, the bed was the comfiest I have ever slept in and the room was so quiet. The area is a little way from the main tourist areas but close to the metro so getting around was easy. We walked to Guell Park which was very close then walked down Las Ramblas which was about 30 mins on foot. We were upgraded to a suite as our flight was delayed on the way in which was very unexpected and very kind of the owner - it was much appreciated! We would definitely return to this hotel in future and would recommend.

Nothing

Very nicely restored urban villa in a cozy neighborhood full of everyday activities, bars, restaurants and outdoor life. The rooms are spacious and cozy with a good eye for details. Less than ten minutes walk from 2 different metro stations which gets you to the city center quickly.

Soundproofing of the rooms should be upgraded if possible, both the street windows as well as the internal doors. The street is relatively quiet, but the occasional motorcycle or street conversation can be very loud inside the room, especially in early mornings. The surroundings of the building are not as romantic as it might seem from the pictures as it is completely sorrounded by residential highrises. Their landscape design and hanging sunshades help to make the garden feel more detached from the surrounding apartment blocks and soon we got used to it... after all, that's what being an urban villa means.
