Barcelona hotels near Casa Vicens

Pros: Breakfast was delicious and comprehensive; the buffet was continually refreshed and had everything we wanted. Such a joy too that breakfast is open to midday so you don't have to rush - and the staff never made us feel under any pressure if we did turn up later on. The aircon in the room was the best I have ever known and everything was spotlessly clean. The rooftop pool, deck and bar were a welcome retreat after a hard day's sight seeing and the hotel is in a lovely area close to the gothic quarter so eating out was no problem at all. All the staff were always incredibly friendly and helpful

Cons: The speakers on the rooftop were a bit too punchy in the daytime, but just a minor point. Other than that nothing!

Pros: The rooms were extremely clean and well designed. Awesome fun features like Bluetooth sound in the room so you could play music while you get ready to go out on the town. Also, one of the most heavenly rain showers I’ve ever experienced

Cons: Not much! The rooftop is small but pleasant service and good drinks!

Pros: Excellent staff. Unexpected and interesting art pieces at the lobby.

Pros: the location is perfect. In couple of minute walk, you reach many touristic sites. The room itself was ok. It was a bit small the amount you pay.

Cons: the pool is much smaller than what you see in photos.

Pros: The location is excellent and worth the money you pay. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is fabulous and very rich.

Cons: We stayed in the Appartements building which is close to the hotel main building cross the street. The hotel may be 5 star but not the apartments. The house keeping services was poor. They missed making up our room for two days.

Pros: everything

Cons: nothing

Pros: Very large selection of everything.

Pros: Although things are small such as roof top swimming pool, gym but acceptable. In the SPA, beside the treatment rooms, they have steam room, Hammam and rain shower. I am always concern with location of any hotel I stay in, so I do avoid using taxis all the time, with the location of this hotel, you will not need any taxis and can walk easily to reach the nice areas.

Pros: Great hotel, staff, and location. Great bath in room.

Cons: My room #632 was the size of my cruise ship suite. One suite case was kept in storage, no room!! Value for the money, not worth it.

Pros: Great location, lovely rooms and wonderful pool. Staff were helpful - organised a taxi for us and saved our suitcases.

Cons: Only downside - if you have a late flight home there are no facilities for you to freshen up. We had to use the outside shower and the toilet in the gym as we were out all day and it was 33 degrees. They have a gym but no shower facilities inside it which would have been ideal.

Pros: The Hotel is right in the heart of the area which we wanted to be in. It had a new restaurant added from the last time that we stayed there five years ago. Having stayed before and had a very good experience we had no hesitation in returning once again. First class time spent there and plan to return in a few months time for a few days.

Cons: Nothing to add.

Pros: Location and staff

Pros: The welcome was prompt and very friendly and attentive ... no matter what member of staff passed through the reception area, they smiled and said hello, including the chef. We were made to feel special and as if we were the only guests in the hotel ... 5 stars for quality of staff and check-in experience. Thank-you!!!! In fact, 5 stars all-round!

Pros: Welcome cava on arrival, most comfy bed we've ever slept on, very clean, modern, fab rooftop pool with bar, nice places to eat and drink locally, helpful/friendly staff!

Pros: Rooftop deck and pool fantastic.

Pros: The attention to detail was amazing and staff were just wonderful. A very inviting and amazing place - will definitely come back.

Pros: Staff was very pleasant. Our room wasn’t ready when we checked in so we chose to upgrade to a bigger room. The room, however, reeked of smoke so we went back and complained. They immediately changed us to another room. The hotel is in a great location, near restaurants and shopping centers. Public transportation is a block away. Breakfast is excellent. There is a rooftop pool and bar with a great view.

Cons: The bathroom lacks racks and hookscto hang wet towels and clothes. TV has limited English channels. Limited electric outlet for US plugs so bring adapters.

Pros: Hotel located very centrally with very nice and helpful staff. The breakfast is nice, the rooftop good and the room very spacious and comfortable to work and sleep. Would consider going back.

Cons: The pool and the gym are really small.

Pros: Swimming Pool is smaller than it appears in the pictures

Cons: All the staff are very friendly and helpful thanks to all of them

Pros: The hotel was centrally and well located. The rooms were furnished to a high modern standard.

Cons: The hotel ridiculously expensive and overpriced for what it was. Our rooms, although modern with smart tv's etc were TINY and stank of damp (and in my daughter's room. of possibly something worse). We had reasonable views and, as per my request for a high floor room, were placed on the 10th floor. However, on the 2nd night, i was awoken in the early hours of the morning by what sounded like someone moving bottles around in the rooftop bar which was just above us so the request for a quiet high floor room had not been granted, in effect. We paid over £900 for the 2 rooms for 2 nights and quite frankly i feel i could have paid almost half this amount to get much better rooms in a different hotel in Barcelona.We were completely ripped off and as this was my first experience of an NH hotel, it will certainly be my last. We have visited Barcelona several times in the last few years, have stayed at SB and Melia hotels and have only ever had good, value for money experiences before, Incidentally, the reception staff also have a little trick of asking if customers prefer to pay in euros or pounds sterling and, tired as i was when i arrived, i opted for pounds sterling and ended up paying even more as a result. This hotel is only interested in making money and is very much'style over substance'.I don't doubt that i will get a strongly worded response to this review but this review has been written only with the intention of warning other holidaymakers like myself who do not have unlimited funds and want value for money on holiday, which you will not get at the NH Calderon. Avoid!

Pros: Only I like the location

Cons: Cleaning the room is the worst Staff not trained and not professional Operating management is bad

Pros: Lovely hotel, great location staff very friendly and can't do enough for you

Cons: There is nothing I didn't like

Pros: Great location, friendly stuff and nice breakfast buffet

Cons: Not a single thing to mention.

Pros: Evry thing is. Excellent and I would to thank the front office manger fancec albert ge was very kind
