The location was the best, right by the Arc de Triunf and the big park, very close to La rambla. Clean, great quality service. I cannot recommend it enough. The rooftop was nice but not many people used it at night. Probably because there is so much to do in Barcelona.

I stayed at Hotel Rec Barcelona recently and had mixed impressions. The location is excellent — very central and convenient for exploring the city, with lots of restaurants and attractions nearby. The design and style of the hotel are modern and appealing, and the staff were generally friendly and helpful. However, I was disappointed with the cleanliness. My room didn’t feel properly cleaned, and some areas could use more attention from housekeeping. The bed was okay and fairly comfortable, but the overall room maintenance didn’t meet my expectations.

Booked the hotel as it’s a great location also right on both the bus & hop on hop off buses. Receptionist was very accommodating & booking in was seamless. Room spacious & clean. Shame there was no fridge as apparently it was a premium room. Breakfast was ok. Didn’t use the restaurant as ate out on our stay. Beware if booking because of pool facilities. It’s very very small. More a plunge pool than a swimming pool. So a little disappointing. Overall a pleasant stay.

Staff was pleasant and attentive during check in and out. Room air conditioner did not work and shower drain was clogged. Reported it after first day. Supposedly maintenance addressed it, but had same issues during second night. Room condition was reason for poor rating.

Liked the idea of the roof top pool, but it’s tiny and no idea where you would change unless change in your room then get the lift to the bar and walk though to get to the pool, then the reverse when you get out, when wet?? Do we didn’t use it in the end!
