| Guest rating: | 10/9/2010 | | "Superb location, well presented, helpful staff, comfortable rooms" | | | | Walking in heat can be tiring but the hotel`s location gives advantages for all the central sights and key locations...and then easy to go back to good air conditioning!Breakfast offers plentiful choices but may not suit all tastes if you expect a full-English fry `at home` menu. One lift can be tricky at busy times if you are several floors high. The roof top bar is a good place to view the surrounding skyline with soft, comfortable seats.Certainly would return again.

Guest rating:  | 20/7/2010 | | "Nice hotel, close to Las Ramblas" | | | | Lovely hotel in a great position, very close to Placa Catalunya, just near Las Ramblas. Breakfast was excellent, lots to choose from. My only complaint would be that when you book a double room it seems to be pot luck what size room you get & i was very disappointed that our room was tiny! No where to put your suitcases, very little storage space. You could only just walk round the bed. So ok for a couple of nights. Other than that it was all ok.

| Guest rating: | 1/1/2009 | | "Good location and suitable for short city break" | | | | The location was very convenient and the included breakfast was good. Two internet connected computers in the lobby and snacks at tea time were nice touches. Also WiFi in rooms.Some guests were not happy with their rooms so this could affect your stay. Double glazing kept road noise to an acceptable level although we were on the sixth floor. The decor was quite modern and we had an interconnecting room to our children. Soundproofing is not too good from the hall or between rooms. Small fridge in room but English TV channels were poor. Sky News and CNN can drive you crazy.Value seemed quite reasonable and may stay again.

When checking in was asked for a voucher which I had not been sent when booked this stay therefore was told could not have room initally. Was eventually give a room but came for a celebration with friends and we had emailedt he hotel requesting rooms together, our friends were on the 1st floor and the other two rooms we had were on the 5th floor! Other staff, after check in, on reception were friendly and polite. Breakfast good and location excellent.

| Guest rating: | 1/10/2008 | | "-" | | | | Reception facility was excellent - we particularly liked the Cava welcome.The bathroom configuration and quality were both excellent , our criticism was in the size of the bedroom , we did ask for an alternative room but there was not one available.We would certainly stay at the hotel again - but ask for a larger room.The breakfast and bar facilities were exceptional

| Guest rating: | 7/7/2008 | | "Very well located, comfortable, clean" | | | | Good hotel, located just off placa de catalunya so ideal for all transport systems roundtown - to and from airport etc. Ideal for Tourist Bus trips.Wife was in wheel chair in non specific disabled room and managed OK. (no Bath but walk in sitdown shower) - (only one lift so sometimes a wait) Room clean and comfortable - air conditioning was a little poor but no problem at night with windows open.Good range for breakfast although fruit seemed a little "old" on both of the two days we were there.Free internet access - WIFI.Excellent and very helpfull staff for directions, taxis, left luggage etc

We moved back the next night and were given a complimentary upgrade to a suite and free minibar drinks. The staff were great as I was not pleased at being moved. H10 hotels - their chain - seem very smart and clean and food good.

Complimentary drink of local bubbly on arrival which was a nice touch and well appreciated. Would give it 10 out of 10.

It gave good access to all the places I wanted to visit. The room was very clean and dispite some of the reviews I had read was large. I had a single room but had a double bed and friends had a super king sized bed. Lot of room including the bathroom. Breakfast was super, lots of choice.

|
| Guest rating: | 15/4/2008 | | "-" | | | | No complaints at all. If anything a couple of small niggles. It was noisy with the French Doors open, but that was to be expected as the hotel is situated on a main road which we knew when we booked it, and I think you`d be hard pushed not to find somewhere noisy in Barcelona! also the `Double` room that we booked was actually 2 good sized single beds pushed together, so although there was plenty of room you had the join down the middle to contend with! Other than that, no complaints whatsoever, the location was good, the staff were very friendly and efficient and it was modern and spotlessly clean.

| Guest rating: | 14/4/2008 | | "The room was fine. The problem for us was the Staff." | | | | Reception Staff were good and helpful. Restaurant Manager and therefore staff were decidedly off-hand. However visiting Spain frequently this is a problem with the Spanish generally.
|
|
|
| Guest rating: | 9/4/2008 | | "-" | | | | Staff worked quickly to rectify a very small room with a glass partition between the toilet/shower and the bed for a larger room. Hotel was well positioned for Les Ramblas and the old town. Metro and bus connections also nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was very good.

| Guest rating: | 15/1/2008 | | "Staff friendly and service good but order your room in advance if possible or book in early." | | | | We had an extreamly small room and paid the same price as larger rooms. I really feel these small rooms should be discounted. The hotel was full so we could not change rooms. Staff are friendly and breakfast was good with a choice to suit all. Location also good. Definate 4* hotel as long as you get a good size room with balcony.

|
| Guest rating: | 7/11/2007 | | "Outstanding customer service in a clean, welcoming and relaxing environment." | | | | This hotel provided good value for money in context and it is almost impossible, or pointless, to find fault. All staff were friendly, enthusiastic and exceptionally helpful. The cleanliness of the venue was striking, the decor and facilities were appropriate and help create a general ambience.The restuarant, although only used at breakfast, offered a high standard and impressive selection of menu choices.The only down side was the noise from the main street at the front of the hotel which continued throughout the night. This is hardly the fault of the hotel, but perhaps better quality double glazing may help?However, an enjoybale stay and a hotel which has many lessons and tricks of the trade to pass on to counterparts in the industry, especially in the UK!

| Guest rating: | 5/11/2007 | | "-" | | | | This hotel was okay for a short stay. However, the floor in the room, which was laminate, had obviously not been cleaned for some time as the bottoms of our feet were filthy (literally black) from walking out of the shower into the main room.

| Guest rating: | 21/9/2007 | | "EXCELLENT HOTEL" | | | | we could not fault the hotel from the moment we arrived to receive a glass of champagne at the reception to the time we booked out.All the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean throughout with good decor. The bedroom was very clean ( the only hipcup was we booked a double room and found twin beds). The fine array of food for breakfast was the best we have ever seen ranging from fresh fruit, cheeses, meats,cereal,bread for toasting and small bread loaves,to good old bacon eggs and sausage,all washed down with hot coffee or various flavours of tea.

| Guest rating: | 15/9/2007 | | "The H10 UNIVERSITAT is a good clean well run hote with pleasent staff. " | | | | Like a lot of hotels l have used in barcelona space is a premium and the Universitat is no different. l would suggest that any body staying at this hotel should ` e ` mail asking for a high floor with a main road facing room. the inner rooms are smaller than small and lower floors can result in road noise.and noise and slight vibration from the metro system which runs under neath the hotel. Do not worry i1ts really a good value hotel if you get the righr room.
