Balmes - Барселона

Value for money is not optimal. Old furniture looked seedy, public shower and jaccuzi were dirty. It is better to book other hotel, paying little bit more.

Lots of good restaurants, walking distance to many sights. Really no 'view' out of the upper level rooms. The upgrade to the Executive suite (10 euros per day) was well with the cost. Parking really tough but front staff was helpful. Would stay here again.

At any other time, this is a great hotel for the price. During Mobile World Congress, it was not worth the EUR320/night...though that was half of similar hotels nearby. Balmes is a gem...perfectly located for my needs, very clean, quiet...though occasional hallway noise, and all the staff I encountered were helpful and friendly.

Excellent for a one night stay,we have used this hotel previously for a longer stay. Very satisfactory.

Paper thin walls, you can hear every sound inc loos being flushed. Waste pipe ran through our room & was very loud! Bed was very uncomfortable & to top it all a maid burst into our room @ 08.15 with out knocking!!! Great City, very poor hotel!

Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia

Our room was quite noisy as we were just off the lobby and you could hear whenever someone in a neighbouring room ran water in the bathroom. Jacuzzi was broken for our whole stay. Otherwise it was a very nice hotel.

Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia

A very pleasant, modern hotel but our bathroom needs a bit of refreshing. Its convenient to many restaurants and cafes and not too far to walk to Plaza Catalunya for the Aerobus to the airport. I had booked a Standard Room but happily, was given a room with a separate sitting room. So well done, Hotel Balmes! But why do European hotels not supply […] a kettle for tea and coffee like all hotels in the rest of the world as we Brits like a cup of tea first thing in the morning. Подробнее

We were fairly disappointed with the Hotel Balmes for one reason in particular. The walls were paper-thin. We heard everything that happened on our floor and on the floor below us, because our room was a two-floor loft. This was particularly problematic when at 7AM we heard loud knocking and "La Policia!" shouted. We awoke in a panic thinking we were […] being arrested in a foreign country. It turned out not to be our room, but the fact that we thought it was demonstrates how thin these walls are. I wouldn't recommend staying here if you are a light sleeper. In addition to this, our shower wouldn't drain, and when we asked the front desk about it, there was no offer to fix it or move us to another room. They just recommended fidgeting with the drain.

The hotel advertise the sauna and the hot tub. Both didn't work. We stayed 4 nights and still nothing works. First night I asked some guest that was already at the hotel and he said that the facilities didn't work when he arrived either. Seems like both are being broken for a wile, but all you get for the answer is " we are waiting for repair - this […] way they'll wait forever. I booked this hotel because they had sauna ( which is actually the steam room, but it doesn't matter since it's not working) and the hot tub, so we could relax there after long walks in Barcelona. I am very disappointed. Подробнее

Most of the hotel staff were very pleasant, but there were some very notable exceptions. The cleaning staff were great. The restaurant staff could have been a lot more attentive. A couple of the front-desk staff got downright snappy. When I asked for help making a long-distance collect call, one of the staff got very impatient and nasty. The advertising […] for the internet service was very misleading. "Free Wi-fi" made it sound like access was available 24 hours in the rooms, but actually meant one session of up to ninety minutes or free 24-hour service in the lobby. We would choose a different hotel for our next visit. Подробнее

I expressly requested a room with a balcony. This did not happen, We were initially put into a very unpleasant, dark, small room that had frosted windows, very little natural light and no balcony. After complaining to the reception we were re-allocated to a room the following morning. This more than met with our criteria as we had a balcony and a patio […] at an extra charge of 20e/night, which I did not mind paying. The staff were both courteous and helpful. Подробнее

Good value for the money. Impresed with the designers adaptation of an older building and merging it into the new. We moved to a hotel by the beach for a few days and are now moving back to the Balmes.

The hotel provided a clean, secure and comfortable stay. We were close enough for the night life, but far enough that our evenings on our terrace were glorious. The hotel personnel were all a pleasure.

Pleasant surpise with room quality, and location to pool. Staff very attentive. Location to city activities good. Could highlights it slocation to rail system better. We did not eat breakfast at the hotel, the price quoted was prohibitive at 14E / head.

Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia

Good location, quiet area but only 10 mins walk to find good restaurants and Las Ramblas. Staff always helpful, nothing too much trouble. Garden and pool area definately a bonus and very welcome after a days sightseeing! Would definately recommend to friends and would return to Barcelona and hotel

Convenient location.

Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

The hotel made for a great stay and was about 1km+ North of the majority of the tourist spots. If you want to be close but a little bit away from everything, I highly suggest it. I also loved the tapas resteraunt just a few doors east down the street called Catalana!

Everything was wonderful except the parking lot. Very small and unfortunately my car got a scratch that represented me 165 euros for a scratch that I didnt do it, but overall it was pleasant, good price and convenient to move around in downtown Barcelona.

Very nice, clean hotel, close to the Pedrera and not too far from the center of town. Helpfull staff, small but nice and quiet pool and sauna, overall a very nice stay! My single room was on the 5th floor, quiet, clean, without much of a view but who cares when you're in Barcelona. Nothing negative to say, would stay there again if in Barcelona.

Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia

The room was great, fabulous size! The location was wonderful. You can walk to many sites and the hotel is near buses and trains. Lots of boutiques/restaurants around hotel. Front desk generally unfriendly and unhelpful. Your room key lights the whole room except bathroom so when you shut the lights off you need to plug your phone into another socket […] disconnected from the circuit so it still charges. Lights do work manually above bed without key lighting room. Found this out last night I was there. Подробнее

The location of the hotel was so so. We had to walk about 15-20 minutes to get to The Placa de Catalunya and Las Ramblas. The hallway where my room was smelled like smoke. Rooms are very small and the windows from my and my friends' rooms faced a brick wall. Staff was nice. Overall, I would say my biggest complaint was the location. We really were not […] close to any major attractions. Подробнее

The decor in the public parts of the hotel is lovely. The rooms are clean, of good size and the beds were comfy enough (our family room had 2 single beds and a double sofabed). Good air conditioning. Lovely shower. The pool/sunbathing area were very good. I really liked the location - close enough to the bustling La Rambla (10-15 min walk) but far […] enough away that the nearby restaurants don't have grossly inflated tourist prices. There's also a 24 hour convenience store next to the hotel which came in very handy. Staff were all friendly and don't worry if you can't speak Spanish/Catalan as the reception staff were all fluent in English If, like us, you can't be bothered figuring out the trains/buses as soon as you arrive, a taxi from the airport to the hotel costs about 30€ and takes about 20-30 mins.

We had booked a standard room. Upon check-in, we were offered a room upgrade at an addition cost. We asked to see both rooms. The standard was extremely small with one small corner window - felt like an inside cabin on an old cruise ship. We took the upgrade. If this was bait and switch, it worked. The property has a very pretty quiet enclosed pool/terrace […] area. Подробнее

I really enjoyed this hotel with the exception of the WiFi. As a business traveler, the connection was spotty at best. The rest of the hotel was beautiful, well-located and Yes, I still would stay there again.

We were a bit apprehensive about the negative reviews but these all appeared to be unfounded, the executive room was extremely quiet - we were in 618 and the location of the hotel was perfect for sightseeing Barcelona.

Overall, we had a very pleasant experience at the Balmes. I cannot stress enough how great the location is, we were able to walk everywhere. There are several great restaurants nearby as well as boutiques for browsing. Having access to a pool was very nice and the room was fine. The staff at the front desk were friendly and accommodating with one exception: […] When we were trying to print our boarding cards from the hotel computer and were having difficulty, one of the gentlemen behind the desk rolled his eyes and instead of helping us, got very frustrated when we were not getting his explanation. We never did get the boarding cards! Подробнее

They gave me a really rubbish room on a light well. Very noisy from plumbing and door banging and thin walls. Beds too hard Otherwise a very nice lobby. Great neighborhood.

We chose this hotel because of the facilities, ha ha the jakuzi didn't work the swimming pool was freezing cold and the bar shut at 11pm. Other than that it was a convenient place to stay and only a short 5 minute walk to the nearest metro station.
