"Central hotel, but in a very noisy street"
Reasonable hotel, within walking distance of everything, but definitely not worthy of four stars. The room was comfortable, but there were no luxuries. Tea and coffee making facilities would be a welcome addition.

This hotel is in the heart of Barcelona and is within easy reach of all the sites. The room we had was large with 2 balconies, although it is on a main road we had no trouble with traffic.The service was terrific, the only drawback was no tea/coffee in the rooms, however there is a cafeteria in the reception area.

"Not as good as it sounds !"
Great location but not good on the comfort side. 2 rooms sampled and both beds very uncomfortable with lumpy pillows. Bad sound-proofing and air conditioning in both rooms not functioning. Very hot rooms and extremely noisy with windows open. Would never go there again. Expensive !

"Good for the price and location"
Nothing special - nor nothing horrible - about the hotel. The room was adequate, the bathroom had been recently redone and was ok. The breakfast buffet was good. The location was convenient for the typical tourist activities.

"Just returned from an enjoyable 4 night break in Barcelona staying at the Laietane Palace. "

"Nice hotel"
This hotel had a fantastic location for the part of Barcelona we particularly like. The room was small but very nice and had everything we needed including a lovely veiw to the back of the hotel and large windows that could be opened a bit like doors which was lovely. The bed was very hard though and my husband did not sleep too well on it. But other than that, it was great and we would stay there again.

"Heating/water"
The hotel clearly stated it had air conditioning, we were in a top floor room with one window that only opened about 3" the air conditioning did not work, we were told it only worked in summer, but the temp in the room was about 30 the heating worked okay and was full on when we arrived, the water in the shower went from Very Very hot to freezing cold in seconds. Although good position and staff okay, although unable to help with either water or air conditioning Rooms very small

"Not a 4* Hotel"
The pictures on the Laietana Palace website look lovely, in reality the rooms are extremely small and noisy, the breakfast poor and even though we were staying in Dec/ Jan, the room so hot that we were unable to sleep. We were advised that there is no cool air conditioning in the hotel.The only advantage is that the location is good and the staff friendly.

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay"
Although we were only in Barcelona for a short time, the staff at the hotel made us feel very welcome. The rooms were clean and spacious and the hotel was perfectly located for our needs. Would definitely go back.

"Ok - clean but a bit impersonal"
They said it had a bar which it did but wad always shut - rooms were small and for £110.00 per night was overpriced.

The hotel is situated in an ideal location central to many places of interest and good restaurants. The buffet breakfast was varied and substantial and all the staff were welcoming and helpful.

"Summary"
Overall, the hotel was clean and very nice. However, there must have been a leak in our bathroom at some point and the bathroom door would not close.

Room was quite basic. The so-called "jacussi" did not measure up. Not a jacussi as I understand one to be ! Consequently having a shower almost caused a flood each time with water flowing on to the floor. Also no trace of satellite television as stated on hotel web site.Staff were, on the whole, fine. Very helpful and courteous. Breakfast is from 7am to 11am. I think you would be advised not to leave it too close to 11am !!! There is every likelihood that your choice of breakfast will be limited and the staff, surprisingly, appear somewhat surly the later you arrive. If breakfast is up to 11am then it should be fully available up till then with a staff equally as smiley as at 7am !!!Overall, I found the hotel fine and I would stay there again. But I would love if those few "picky" points I have raised would be attended to.

"Hotel in good location,and of a high standard,with exellent breakfast serving hot and cold food."
Our stay at this hotel was very good, with a good sized room, that was of a high standard with good decor. The bathroom was lovely, but we got a high powered shower ,but couldn`t use it ,as it wet all the floor.The hotel has a very good location , a short walk to the harbour and surrounded by lot`s of restaurants.The metro is accross the road ,so everywhere is easy to get to. This holiday was very special and Barcelona is the most beautiful city. We definitely will be going again, and hope that when we book the hotel ,we don`t get the (jacuzi) shower.!.

Brilliant location if a little noisy. Situated on a very busy main road. Our room only had a shower, not a jacuzzi as mentioned on your website. Room could be described as compact rather than spacious, and no english tv channels available. Overall though, we had a great stay and would certainly use this hotel again. All the staff were vey helpful and friendly.

Great hotel, excellant location although we were initially given a room no bigger than a cupboard! right next to the elevators which was very noisy. I asked if there was a chance to be moved, the staff were exceptionally helpful and moved us to a bigger room the next morning taking care of our bags for us.

"Hotel of a high standard. The breakfast was very good serving both a choice of hot and cold food."
Hotel of a high standard, good decor, clean and tidy. The breakfast was excellant serving both hold and cold buffet. The staff were very helpful and friendly ensuring we had a comfortable stay. The location of the hotel was on a main street giving easy walking access to habour, old and new part of the city.
