El Palauet Barcelona

The hotel is beautiful and the facilities are generally well maintained, although ergonomic compromises were made in service of design that grew increasingly uncomfortable. For example, the unconventional bathroom faucet and shallow sink meant that the faucet can only be turned on slightly or else water would bounce off the sink and flood the floor. Other inconveniences include a centralized AC that can only be adjusted by calling reception.||But the big drawback here is the periodic, room shaking rumble from the subway trains passing below. The hotel is right above a major station, which is great for taking that subway line, but not so great if you're trying to get some sleep while jetlagged and not used to have a rattle every 10-15 minutes that lasts till 1am and later on weekends. I wish the other reviews had mentioned this when I was doing my research.

We stayed here for my father’s 70th birthday celebration. What a wonderful luxury boutique hotel experience. The location is perfect, easy to get a cab right out the front door, easy location for cab to understand to return to. Beautiful lobby and rooms, attentive staff/concierge that made wonderful recommendations for restaurants and set up guided tours for us at Casa Vicens and the Picasso Museum.

Stop looking you can't find better in Barcelona! It has the convenience and space of an apartment with the service of a hotel but much more personal. We stayed for a week with our teenage children in one apartment and our extended family in another apartment of the first floor. Principal Gracia and Principal Tibidabo. The rooms were beautiful original details on the walls and ornate ceilings with designer furniture and mod cons of aircon and blinds controlled by the iPad.||It is in a great location central but slightly out of the busy tourist area with good restaurants nearby. It was completely quiet at night with the double glazing and shutters give complete block out the light. The staff make it really special. They are such nice people and incredibly helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. It really is a personal valet service. They made all our restaurant bookings and all their recommendations were excellent. ||They did a shop before we arrived from our list and even offered to make me soup when I was sick. They were wonderful. A fabulous stay. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

El Palauet is just an incredibly special place. The boutique hotel is situated in the heart of the chic Gracia neighborhood in the heart of Barcelona, just a short walk from countless main attractions, including a less than a 5 minute walk to two of Gaudi's famous masterpiece buildings on the Passeig de Gracia, where the hotel sits. ||||The design of the entire building and each suite is immaculate - classical architecture meets modern amenities, to make for the most memorable stay. Not only are there outdoor spaces inside each 1,600 sq foot suite (literally, there is no bad room in the hotel!), but the hotel also has an amazing rooftop terrace - perfect for morning breakfast and an evening cocktail. The staff is incredible and discrete - it's a perfect fusion of all the services you need without any unnecessary disturbances. ||||This charming landmark hotel quickly became my favorite hotel of all time and I couldn't recommend it more highly!

The building , the rooms , the staff ... they were all amazing! Best choise ever! Situated in the heart of the city, a quiet part of Paseig de Gracia in comparison to the lower part. The staff was amazing, very helpfull and always trying to meet your desires. The atmosphere from El Palauet surrounds your heart and transcends to a different time and place. It’s like you are reliving the early 20th century with all the novelty and technology from nowadays. We were truely mesmerised with the place! We will definetly return! Try it! At least once! You won’t regret it! It’s a place you’ll remember for the rest of your life! Congratulations to all the team from El Palauet and many thanks for making our short stay so amazing!

It is really an upmarket serviced apartment, more than a hotel - but the rooms are so large and beautifully designed, so Catalonian and comfortable, we wished we spent more time here to be honest. 24/7 concierge, they cooked us breakfast and bought us food on arrival after a long haul flight, staff were great. ||A great place to stay that really feels like you're in Barcelona, instead of some chain hotel where you could be anywhere. Had 2 kids with us and they loved it too. Easy walk to so many of Barcelonas major attractions. I'd stay again.

We just spent 5 nights right on Passeig de Gràcia, in one of the most beautiful buildings dating back to 1902. The mix is heritage and modern with all the technology at your fingertips. Our 150m2 suite was beautifully decorated with painted relief ceilings, stained glass windows, mirrored kitchens, crisp and comfortable beds, rain showers and tub and... balconies over looking the street. We couldn’t have asked for more. The service was great, from the team (and our Ed Sheehan lookalike😁) always eager to assist. Best location, super easy to get anywhere from here, what a proper spot. ||Barcelona you are amazing, and El Palauet...we will be back.

My husband and I stayed in Principal Passeig de Gracia apartment from July 16 - 20, 2017. I cannot say enough about how wonderful the staff and apartment were. They took care of every need we had -- even hand-delivering two of the jute tote bags to us at our next hotel in Barcelona! Julia, Maria, and Christian ALL were absolutely superb, providing champagne, dinner upon request, making museum reservations, booking a full-day tour with driver, buying us flowers for our anniversary, making restaurant reservations, etc. Plus the apartment! By far the most gorgeous in which we've ever stayed anywhere!||||We are already fantasizing about taking another trip to Barcelona and bringing friends with us to El Palauet. We cannot recommend it more highly!
