This a very good hotel. Rooms are quite small perhaps because it is located in a historic zone, mostly pedestrian. For the same reason it is overpriced comparing other same category hotels. Breakfast is very good. The only problem we had in the six days we stayed was the lock of the room that needed several attemps to recognize out card keys each time we tried to enter the room, although we had to remagnetize these cards sometimes.

The staff (front desk, dining, cleaning) were so kind and accommodating from check-in to check-out. The room was very nice (shower, bidet, fridge, AC), the gym/pool was good (I didn’t use the pool but it looked relaxing and the gym had enough for my workout), breakfast was delicious, and the hotel is close to the metro and the bus as well as multiple walking destinations. Since there are minimal cars in the area it is also a very quiet area that I felt safe enough to walk around at night. I would go back and recommend to others! :)

We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at Catalonia Born. It was very conveniently located, so we walked everywhere, Lots of restaurants, bakeries and grocery nearby. Despite being central it was very quiet for sleeping, and the pool was great after all our walking and sight seeing. The room was clean, well equipped and the people at the hotel were very friendly and helpful.

The Hotel Catalonia Born in Barcelona is an oasis in the middle of a busy, beautiful, iconic city. Considering the large numbers of visitors they encounter, the staff maintains an impressively friendly, professional attitude. The breakfasts are spectacular, too--just what you need for a day of exploring Barcelona.
