Overall a pleasant stay

Pros: Staff were great, manager was helpful. Convenient location close to lots of restaurants and bars.

Cons: A few minor issues with room but manager did his best to sort them out. Our room was in an annexe and the WiFi wasn’t good.

Ilir 9/10
Albania 🇦🇱

Pros: The cleanliness was superb with change of sheets/towels everyday and the help from Carlos and Lizzy was exceptional with logistical support in the hotel, advice for the town and just being super friendly and with a smile on their face. The location made visiting every single part of Barcelona so easy by being close to La Rambla, Placa de Catalunya and the metro station.

Cons: The facilities were a bit old and could use a renovation.

Great Stay in the Heart of Barcelona!

Pros: I recently stayed at Alba Hotel and had a wonderful experience overall. The location is unbeatable—right in the middle of the city center, making it super convenient to get around. Everything was within walking distance, and it was only about a 30-minute walk to the beach, which was perfect. The hotel itself was very clean and well-maintained. The facilities were spotless, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. For the price, it definitely felt like great value. The only minor issue I encountered was with the shower—the design allowed water to run off onto the bathroom floor, which was a bit inconvenient. Aside from that, everything else was great. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay centrally in Barcelona

Cons: The showers

Alba hotel

Pros: The room was big. Tha bathroom was huge and we had a walk in wardrobe. The beds were comfy and the room was cleaned each day and fresh towels daily.

Cons: The decor is a little dated and all the windows are frosted class so it feels a little clostrophobic

Definitely recommend!

Pros: The location was great. Right next to the market and Las Ramblas! The room was comfy, clean and had a balcony which we really appreciated. The team was amazing. Special shout out to Carlos who really looked after us. He gave us tips on where to go for different things and really showed how much he cared throughout the whole stay! He was definitely a highlight to the hotel! The value for money was also worth it. All around a great stay.

Cons: The only thing I would say was a little off was the fact that the bathtub was a half bath. However I am more for showers so it didn't affect us at all.
