Loved this place. Fun lighting and room entries. Close to everything. I would stay again. The only thing we noticed was an acetone type smell, I think they may have been painting or something. It didn't impact our stay, thankfully.

Great hotel, awkward bathroom

Great Stay

Location is great, just a short walk into the main area(s). Staff, were nice. They left some treats in the room as it was a trip to celebrate our anniversary. The rooms are quirky but great. Area felt safe, with some bars and restaurants close by. Only negative would be that the rooms aren't 100% soundproof, could hear some snoring here and there. That being said, I would stay here again.

I’m 64 yrs old woman who travels solo always looking for safety first. Not only the área was safe but all the staff were always willing to help and giving directions and sugestións on where to go, what and how to get there. 24 hrs receptionist available is a most. Definetly my first choice in the El Born neighborhood. Special thanks to Male and Alfa and the other girl at the reception!

Second Stay at Chic & Basic Born

My partner had stayed in this hotel on a business trip a year before our own trip to Barcelona, so he was happy to book it a second time. Well located with a decent breakfast and bar area. Building itself is lovely. Only small issues were the shower hose head was broken in Room 10 (we used the rainfall shower head, so no worries on a lack of shower) and the heating was turned up very high in the room without us knowing it was on full blast on the first night (we are Irish so are used to the cold in January, this was too warm for us and window couldn't be open all night due to outside noise)

Our stay at Chic&Basic Born Hotel was great. The receptionist was friendly and gave great food recommendations. The room was just as pictured, and housekeeping and fresh towels were provided daily. The location was surrounded by many shops and restaurants, and walking distance to the Arc de Triomf and different neighborhoods. I would stay here again!

I have stayed several times at this Chic&Basic Location, the location is very convenient and we love that is not right on the touristy part of the city. The room needed a bit of repairs on restroom wise, some light fixtures out of place and the shower splashes onto the hardwood floor. Otherwise we strongly recommend this hotel as it is close to some of our favorite restaurants.
