Olivia Balmes Hotel

Super attentive staff, amazing location and great rooms.

The hotel was very welcoming. They gave us complimentary champagne, something we didn't expect but appreciated. It rained during one of the days and they kindly lent us two umbrellas. Staff was attentive and accommodating.

The hotel is fantastic! The room was very well equipped, staff was amazingly friendly and helpful, and breakfast was just delicious. I would definitely stay in Olivia Balmes again and recommend to all my friends. The hotel is very conveniently located in walking distance to several metro stations, attractions and restaurants. Suite room works great for a family with one kid: the room can be split into two parts by a sliding wall.

The bathroom (with a toilet) was a bit too much creatively designed :)) it has two doors (even three) and neither one has a lock, so you have to coordinate bathroom trips with others in the room - a bit frustrating. Semi-transparent bathroom wall is not too transparent, although adds another bit of frustration. Tap water operation is not convenient: it is only possible to get warm water when you open the stream to a maximum power, and then it becomes too strong. But these are just a minor things, and the overall impression is great!

I would absolutely staff here again and highly recommend to anyone. The staff are this hotel best feature, extremely helpful and accommodating. The room itself has everything g you would need and they even a box full of toiletries etc that is simply perfect when you are only traveling with hand luggage. I will definitely come back here every time I visit, beautiful Barcelona, a big thanks to all the staff for making this a trip to remember.
