Axel TWO Barcelona

​I recently stayed at Axel Hotel Two for three nights and had an amazing experience! From the moment I arrived, the check-in process was seamless. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful; they took the time to explain all the facilities and services this urban hotel has to offer. ​A special thanks to Alexandra, the General Manager, for her friendliness and professionalism. She personally ensured that everything I asked for was handled perfectly. I felt very well taken care of throughout my stay. ​I will definitely be coming back very soon. Cheers!

The hotel is nice and clean but it is missing something that would make me want to return. They say there is a bar but it is not really a bar at all. They only have beer and even that was not available when we went for a quick drink before going out. It feels like a big missed opportunity.||The room was clean and a decent size but it was honestly too hot. We spoke to other guests who said the same thing. Some had gone to reception to ask for the air con to be turned up, which we eventually did on the last day, and that finally made it comfortable.||The pool area was also disappointing. The pool is small and I expected it to be heated but it was freezing cold. The whole area looks a bit tired and the steam room did not work, so it really was not worth booking this hotel if you want a pool. The gym is very small but it is fine for a quick workout if you just want the basics.||One small thing that really put me off was the coffee. They left two little sachets of Nescafé on the first morning and the next day there were none. I went to reception to ask for more and they told me they only give you two for your first morning and do not replace them. I have never experienced that in any other hotel and, although it seems minor, it gives the wrong impression about your experience.||The location is good and it is about a fifteen minute walk from the main gay area. The reception staff were okay but nothing special. Overall it is an average hotel and I would not go back

A beautifully decorated and welcoming hotel with helpful and friendly staff. Close to the city center and an excellent starting point for tourists who want to explore the city by walking. If you get tired, public transportation is no problem, as the metro station is very close (200 m). In short, an excellent location for Barcelona.

The TWO by Axel is a great hotel made for everyone in need of a comfortable room with contemporary design at a good location. I liked the way of design and communication with the guests. Amazing friendliness and attention from the staff. The entire property is kept very well and clean. The breakfast buffet is not a highlight, but you have lots of alternatives in the neighborhood and St.Antoni market hall is also in walking distance. Just few steps from the nearest metro station, so easy access to everywhere in town and to the airport.

When booking, I initially thought the price was a bit high compared to other nearby hotels, but it was fairly comparable. With so many options in the area, I chose this one because of the chain’s commitment to inclusivity and the fact that it's adults only. I also appreciated some of the quirky touches like the "Please Disturb" door sign. This hotel isn’t located right in the middle of the gay area like the other one - it’s a short walk or metro ride away, which might actually be a plus for those looking for a quieter stay. The hotel honoured my request for a quiet room away from the elevator, and I didn’t experience any noise at all. My room faced the public park and I didn't hear any noise from it or the neighbouring rooms. I’m glad I paid a bit extra for a "premium" room as I wouldn’t have wanted to stay on the ground floor or in the basement. The room itself was comfortable, especially the bed and the rain shower, though it’s beginning to show its age. The air conditioning seemed to struggle even when it was only 26°C outside. I noticed other reviews mention the same issue, so perhaps the system could use an upgrade - the control panel looked very old. A couple of amenities were slightly disappointing: the rooftop bar only opens during peak season (but the rooftop itself is still open and you can get drinks from the ground floor bar) and the pool was very cold - though that might have been due to the lack of sun, so perhaps just a matter of preference. Finally, I noticed an incorrect minibar charge on my card statement after checking out. Fortunately, the hotel refunded it as soon as I emailed them, which I really appreciated.

(Our stay was at the end of Sept) My partner & I had a wonderful stay here. We had a premium room with included breakfast and for 4 nights this was the perfect size. The service was always great from check-in to daily breakfast and then check-out. Location was awesome. Felt really safe for 2 ladies. The metro was just 50m down the road, a really good supermarket with everything you need around the corner. Heaps of restaurants in the area, all within walking distance and the gay district also only a short 10min walk away. The rooftop bar wasn't open as it was off-season but if you want a drink you can get from the ground floor. The pool was good enough for a dip but is a bit worse for wear could do with a reno. Still good to have privacy though. Overall, will absolutely stay again

Overall, this is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Really high quality and have thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The room is spacious and modern with one of the biggest and comfiest beds I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. The breakfast was high quality with plenty of choice and even free cava! Only criticism I have and why I wouldn’t rate it 5/5 is the timing of breakfast on weekends is too late, it’s a bit lazy to start breakfast at 08:00 on weekends when it’s 07:00 every other day. We had an early bus to Andorra and thought we could grab some breakfast before heading to the bus station but were disappointed to find out it didn’t start until 08:00. People have early flights or have to be places, there’s no reason why breakfast should start later on the weekend

Wish there was less than 1 star. Automatic sliding door is manual at the entrance Check in not very smooth. Fill in forms, secure deposit without seeing the room in which condition they will handover. Pay City tax 50 EUR (not mentioned in booking.com) Wifi, perhaps the most slowest connection. I was asked to book a room with balcony for smoking. Turned out room with balcony is non smoking. Rooms claimed to be premium. A 1 star hotel in Dubai holds more premium rooms than this 4 star hotel. Balcony is mere a shelf to stand upon. No chairs at balcony. I don’t understand the objective of this balcony if you “can’t smoke, can’t sit, don’t have a good view” whats the point of having it. No one at the lobby to help you with your baggage “A VERY MUST FACILITY IN ANY 4 stat hotel” Elevator stinks. Room was mentioned to be a 20 square meter. It is smaller than my home’s toilet. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY AND TIME. EXTREMELY OVER PRICED FOR WHAT IT IS ACTUALLY

I had a bag stolen from the lobby while checking in. They would only look at security camera tape if the police asked them to look at it.
