We actually didn't get to stay there. There was a train strike in Italy and we couldn't get there for the first night of the reservation. The hotel would not work with us and still charged us. The strike interrupted our train from Zurick to Florence. The hotel was rude when trying to talk to them about this.

Very nice stay at the Catalonia Born!

Catalonia Born is clean, comfortable, has a very good breakfast, and the staff is exceptional. It's location is easy walking distance to dinning and shopping. And Passeig de Lluís Companys (park) is directly next door for exercise and relaxing. The hotel is located in El Born neighborhood, which is a medieval area adjacent to the ancient Roman Gothic Quarter Barcelona. Overall, Catalonia Born is very a enjoyable stay and gave us all we needed for a great experience in Barcelona.

The staff (front desk, dining, cleaning) were so kind and accommodating from check-in to check-out. The room was very nice (shower, bidet, fridge, AC), the gym/pool was good (I didn’t use the pool but it looked relaxing and the gym had enough for my workout), breakfast was delicious, and the hotel is close to the metro and the bus as well as multiple walking destinations. Since there are minimal cars in the area it is also a very quiet area that I felt safe enough to walk around at night. I would go back and recommend to others! :)

This a very good hotel. Rooms are quite small perhaps because it is located in a historic zone, mostly pedestrian. For the same reason it is overpriced comparing other same category hotels. Breakfast is very good. The only problem we had in the six days we stayed was the lock of the room that needed several attemps to recognize out card keys each time we tried to enter the room, although we had to remagnetize these cards sometimes.
