This is one of the most popular hotels on the Internet thanks to its location in the heart of the city, surrounded by shop and sights; the blend of modernity and classic style in the hotel's decor; and the ongoing promotions offered on its web site (for example, excellent rates offered for reservations made in advance). Opened in 2003, few hotels bring together so many facilities and services, which range from everything from a heated pool to a library and computers with Internet. In addition to the usual comforts, guest rooms are filled with out of the ordinary conveniences: an iron and ironing board built into the closet, free bottles of mineral water and juices which are replenished every day, an extra vanity in the bedroom, and more. L'Atrium RESTAURANT: One of the best hotel restaurants in Barcelona offers you an excellent Mediterranean cuisine by chef Xavi Barrachina. Open 13 to 16 and 20 to 23. Buffet lunch. Child menu. Temporary art exhibitions, Room service 24h. Cafeteria. Buffet Breakfast.

October/2013 Someone from CH-Rheinfelden thinks:

  • Overall rating: 8.1
  • Would you recommend it? Yes
  • Positive: die sehr zentrale Lage und die immer freundlichen Mitarbeiter an der Reception
  • Negative: das Spa und der Pool
  • I RECOMMEND it for... Young travelers, Couples
  • I recommend it especially AGAINST... Luxury, Peace seekers, Healthy lifestyle
  • Cleanliness: 7.5 generell sehr sauber, täglicher Handtuchwechsel, alle 2-3 Tage Wechsel der Bettwäsche. Zimmer wurden leider des Öfteren erst am späteren Nachmittag gemacht.
  • Location: 10 Für uns war die sehr zentrale Lage hervorragend, ideal für den Besuch sämtlicher Sehenswürdigkeiten sowie Shoppingtouren. Allerdings auch ziemlich Strassenlärm, aber erträglich wenn die Fenster zu sind.
  • Common facilities and services: 5 Frühstück war gut und reichhaltig, aber jeden Tag dasselbe. Spa und Poolbereich entspricht in keiner Weise den sehr geschönten Fotos. W-LAN auf dem Zimmer hat erst beim 2. Anlauf gut funktioniert. Schiebe-Schranktür klemmte und war deshalb schwer zu öffnen. Konnte offensichtlich auf die Schnelle nicht repariert werden.
  • Staff: 10 sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Kompliment!
  • Quietness: 5 Leider sehr hellhörig, vor allem was den Innenlärm betrifft. Der Strassenlärm war bei geschlossenen Fenstern gut erträglich. Muss man halt in Kauf nehmen, dafür echtes Grossstadtflair direkt vor der Haustür.
  • Room: 7.5 Zimmer sind nicht riesig, aber durchaus ausreichend. Schönes funktionierendes Bad, sep. Waschbecken im Zimmer, Fernseher, Minibar, alles was man braucht war da. Ausblick auf die sehr belebte Strasse für uns kein Nachteil.
  • Value for money: 7.5 Abgesehen vom Wellnessbereich war alles wie wir es erwartet hatten, nicht mehr, aber auch nicht weniger.

October/2013 Someone from Carlsbad, NM USA thinks:

  • Overall rating: 7.2
  • Would you recommend it? I don't know
  • Positive: Modern room and bathroom with tub and bidet. Good restaurant attached. Mostly pleasant
  • Negative: Housekeeping was eratic; like most US travelers, we didn't carry washcloths with us and had to request them every day. The room was not ready when they said it would be on our arrival; we had to request that the room be made up at 4:00PM one day. It took her only 5 minutes. The jacuzzi was cold and full of soap bubbles the one time I tried it. No hooks or drawers for clothing.
  • I RECOMMEND it for...
  • I recommend it especially AGAINST...
  • Cleanliness: 7.5 When it was cleaned, it was well cleaned. The scheduling and details were issues with us.
  • Location: 10 Close to Pl. Catalunya and transportation. Also within walking distance for most people of favorite Barcelona features.
  • Common facilities and services: 5 The restaurant, lobby and elevators were fine. The pool, though small, was very nice. The jacuzzi was too cold and had soap bubbles in it when I tried it. The shower that one is supposed to use before getting into the pool/jacuzzi had soap provided, which may be part of the problem with the jacuzzi; it also was inscrutable to me as to how to turn it on.
  • Staff: 7.5 One desk clerk was pretty negative - always said "it couldn't be done" before trying to solve a problem. Liked Victor very much and the young ladies who helped periodically. Restaurant help very nice.
  • Quietness: 10 Despite being on a busy street, the room was very quiet. There was no sound from adjacent rooms or the hallway at all.
  • Room: 7.5 No drawers or hooks for clothing either in the bathroom or the closet. No wash cloths provided (US travelers to not usually bring them.) Very nice mirrors - full length and well-placed. Attractive furnishings. Some might find the beds a little firm, but we liked them. The TV had a good selection of stations for various nationalities. Liked the modern arrangement for lighting and temperature control.
  • Value for money: 7.5 It was about what I expected, with nice surprises about accessibility (I need a walker). Restaurant menu nicely varies and good quality.

October/2013 Someone from Britain thinks:

  • Overall rating: 10
  • Would you recommend it? Yes
  • Positive: Centrally located, within walking distance of the metro and city centre. Professional and helpful staff
  • Negative: Bedroom walls somewhat thin. If neighbours are close to the walls and speak loudly you can hear. You can't hear the neighbouring bathrooms however, so there was no real problem.
  • I RECOMMEND it for... Older travelers, Families, Couples, Luxury, Modern style lovers, Business travelers
