Hotel Catalonia Portal de l'Àngel

Warning - this hotel refused to honor our reservation and involuntarily transferred it to a different hotel in the same chain which was in a more noisy, crowded area that was older and where we would not have gone otherwise. The other hotel had multiple complaints in its evals and problems like full-time security at the entrance and bathroom sink would not drain (got fixed after a few hours). We didnt change because rates had gone up and we were too tired to hassle with the process. Avoid this place, esp if using Booking.com like we were.

I loved this hotel the location was perfect near La Rambla plenty of restaurants and things to do, not far from all the attractions and tourist places to see in Barcelona. Our room was big with a balcony clean comfortable and the bathroom was beautiful. The staff in the hotel is amazing very attentive and friendly from the front desk, the bartender Camilo, to the breakfast crew in the morning. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I cannot wait to go back to Barcelona.

Very nice hotel. Large rooms balcony looks out onto gorgeous street view. It is located very close to La Rambla and the shopping and restaurants that surround it are to numerous to ever try them all. The bathroom is as large as some peoples apartments. Hot water so hot you'll never run out. Front desk staff is very friendly and helpful but when I locked my key in my room they never asked for ID. Only my name. I would definitely give one more star if the wi-fi worked it takes forever to recognize the network and then kicks me off before a web page finishes loading. The just shrugged and said yes, it is some times like that. Very sad that such a beautiful hotel stay was ruined by tech problems.

Great location and the value for the price is really good. It is very large. The staff is sort of off and on with some having more knowledge than others.
