The balcony room was amazong and well worth it! We could wait out and watch the street and it was a cute view. The beds were really comfortable and we could close both balcony doors and it blocked out all light and noise for sleeping. James was really helpful. Thanks for a great stay! We will recommend to friends!

Great location! Easy walk to the spots we wanted to get to. Tons of restaurants and shopping allies. Hard to find at first because of city construction. 20 minute easy walk to Casa Batllo and Moco museum, but a drive to Sagrada Familia and park Güell.

Excellent value. In the heart of the Gothic quarter - bit touristy as expected. Room was small but had everything I needed. Heat blew cold air so I just turned off and used extra blanket that was provided.

Convenient location and wonderful staff

The hotel was a hidden gem. We happened to find it when our flight bumped us off and the stay at Airbnb couldn’t be extended. The staff was courteous, the room was clean and the hotel could accommodate us a little before time as we were lugging the luggage around. Excellent stay!!!

Not wheelchair friendly

I was disappointed with our stay in Hotel Nouvel. Whilst it is well situated for visiting the downtown places in Barcelona, it is not disabled friendly. It says on the Hotel.com page under accessibility that there is a lift, so assumed it was ok. But the lift is extremely tight for a wheelchair and as it is situated directly next to the main desk, hazardous for a w/c user to get in and out. The bathroom did not have any grab rails which is unsuitable for a disabled person and not conducive to normal patrons getting in and out of the slippery bath. I believe the hotel making an entry under accessibility behoves them to clarify how poor its services for disabled visitors is.
