My husband and I decided to go on a European tour for our honeymoon - Paris, Barcelona, and Berlin! We were going to spend 4 nights in Barcelona, so we decided to book an AirB&B. My husband made a mistake and booked our AirB&B for 3 nights only, and couldn't get the 4th night, and we couldn't cancel. We ended up booking H10 Metropolitan for the last night, and BOY WAS I HAPPY THAT HAPPENED!
The look and feel of this place is amazing! It's an eclectic mix of mid-century modern with modern touch. I have some photos so I'll post those as well, but the lobby made me feel at home with the Bauhaus furniture, a ceiling mounted fireplace, and little candy jars everywhere. The furniture is very unique, and definitely not cheap, so definitely makes the lobby very unique and quirky.
The service is superb. We got kicked out of our AirB&B at 11AM, so we walked over at 11:15AM, asking if they can at least drop off our luggage. It's right in the middle of city central -- it's right next to the Plaza Catalunya, where the Aerobus drops you off from the airport. It's right next to a lot of the shopping in the area as well! They tried checking if there was a room available, but there wasn't. They took care of our luggage, and we got to at least check in and do the paperwork first. They asked if we wanted any water, juice, or champagne as we did our paperwork -- whaat?? And there was a nice ass bar cart right behind the reception!
We came back around 2PM for check in (2PM check in, 12PM check out!!!). We asked to grab our luggage, and the bellman said he will bring it to our room. Our room is so cute! It definitely keeps the interiors and the feel of the lobby, and it's pretty spacious! The bellman came slowly after to drop off our luggage, and even gave us a tour of the room! He made sure we knew how to use the Nespresso machine, made sure we knew the water on the table is complimentary, that we had a balcony, and that we had a safe, and the safe has international outlet (in case you forgot an outlet converter!).
We went upstairs to the rooftop pool and the small gym. It's really a small gym, don't expect much. But the pool was nice! We didn't go in, but if it was warmer, we would have! There's lounge chairs next to the pool, some towels, and a great view! Great for lounging.
My husband and I went out to do some shopping, and came back around 5PM to change for dinner. I was curling my hair when we heard a knock on our door. Someone came with a bottle of wine, 2 wine glasses, and some chocolate truffles! We thought that was the nicest and sweetest thing! We felt so awesome, and so we opened the bottle to start our night!!
We got back from dinner, and someone had left some some Lindt's chocolates in our room! We seriously felt like royalty during our stay! We showered and they have (2) shower robes and slippers! It was so soft, and we loved it! I really can't get over the amenities, the service, and the overall decor! The location is also great, and we opened our patio to get the city noise. The city is so vibrant, and we are right in the middle of it!
We will definitely try to go to another H10 hotel after this one night stay. If anything, we hope to go back to Barcelona, and we can stay here again!!!
