Hotel 1898

Check in was quite unpleasant being told that my email through hotels.com regarding the update of occupant was 'nothing to do with the hotel'. But he honored the condition i was expecting, so it was ok in the end. It was just handled very unprofessionally. Over all the staff at the front desk gives off quite stern atmosphere instead of warm and welcoming feel. On the other hand, the bar staff was absolutely excellent! My husband went to free wine tasting event there, and he had a fantastic time.

Lovely hotel in superb location. Super-comfy beds and an excellent spa.

Great location. Room was awesome. The downstairs pool is incredible. The rooftop bar looked great but didn’t get a chance to spend time up there. I have two complaints 1.we called for room service during business hours and no one answered. 2. The lady at the bar in the lobby ignored us while she cleaned and we waited for drinks. We gave up.

This hotel is an absolute gem. The reception area and bar are beautiful, and the staff are superb. The building itself is really impressive, with lots of nice original features. Our room was clean and spacious and looked out onto La Rambla, which was lovely to wake up to (don’t worry, the windows are soundproof so its not noisy). The spa is incredible, lovely pool with steam and sauna, and a gym and massage facility too. The rooftop bar has a pool (sadly not heated) and bar with great views. The location is idea for getting around, near two subways and within walking distance of most major attractions. I just can’t recommend this place enough, it’s perfect!

Location is awesome. Bed was comfortable, I loved the Private deck from my room. I also enjoyed the spa after a long day work. I would stay there again.
