This was our second stay at a H10 hotel. The first was back in 2019 where we stayed at H10 Montcada.
When I was looking to book again, I compared pricing between both hotels and H10 Madison was slightly lower than H10 Montcada. Luckily both are in the same area, which is an excellent location to stay in Barcelona. Located just off via Laietana, you have El Born on the east side and Gothic quarter on the west side. The Mercat de Santa Caterina is just a few blocks away, as well as the Palau de la Música Catalana. The Mercado de La Boqueria on Las Ramblas is a 10 minute walk from the hotel. On the corner of via Laietana and c/de Sant Pere Mes Baix is a Carrefour market (great for toiletries, snacks, wine, and vodka) and Capppuccino, a place for coffee and tea.
Our room was on the 6th floor, #612. It had a small balcony where you could look out to the right and see the Cathedral. Inside the room were windows that also faced the Cathedral. Being on the 6th floor we heard no noise at all when we closed our soundproof windows. That was really nice. One woman we met said her room, first floor, was very noisy, as she could hear the trash trucks empty the bins that were just outside her window.
The room had a small sitting area and a very comfortable bed. Nice large bathroom with bright lights. I hate being in hotels that have dark bathrooms. The shower had good water pressure.
Amenities include bathrobes, slippers, a vanity kit, lovely shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer, and a safe located in the closet.
The bathroom had shelving under the sink and there was a decent amount of counter top. I do wish they had hooks on the bathroom walls for things to hang (to the right in my photo). There's plenty of room to do this.
The staff are top notch. Excellent service and very friendly and helpful.
In the lobby was a table that had a bottle of Cava; and water. That's a nice touch.
Love the rooftop area with the bar and great views of the city. They had heated lamps for the cold nights.
H10 Madison is rated as a 4-star hotel, but I consider it a 5-star hotel.
H10 Hotels will always be my go-go hotel anytime I'm in Barcelona.
Lastly, if you become an H10 member, you will get a 5% discount on your bookings.
