Guest Reviews
- Cláudia (8/5): - The staff was super! At the reception desk Clara was super helpful, cheerful. The room needs a better wardrobe.
- Jonas (10/5): Trevlig personal på ett litet och modernt hotell med ett bra läge. - Fräscht och modernt. Inte så stort hotell vilket gjorde att det kändes lugnt och avslappnat. -

- Michał (1/5): - My stay at this hotel turned into a nightmare. The room was infested with bed bugs, and I was severely bitten during my stay. The situation was so serious that I unknowingly brought them back with me to Poland, and now I have to undergo treatment and cover additional costs for disinfection and getting rid of the infestation.
What is even more outrageous is the hotel’s behavior after I reported the issue — despite filing a complaint and fully describing the situation, the hotel has completely ignored my messages and has not even bothered to respond. This shows a total lack of responsibility, professionalism, and respect for guests. I strongly advise everyone to avoid this hotel unless they want to risk their health and face major problems after returning home.
- Steplyk (9/5): Was decent. - A good location. Quiet. Helpful employees. Floor was dirty in our room.
- Camille (10/5): Hôtel sympathique - La gentillesse du personnel
- Hamed (4/5): Not as Expected - Location The room was very small, and the pool was more decorative than functional — more like a small upstairs water feature than a real swimming pool. The floor in the room was also not properly cleaned.

- Premysl Fiala (10/5): -
- Francesco (7/5): Toller Standpunkt für Besichtigungen - Frühstück war ok, aber da ist noch Spielraum nach oben.
Tolle Aussicht.
Sehr freundliche Rezeption!
Lage ist super. An einem Tag gab es keinen Butter oder Magarine.
Am nächsten Tag nur auf nochmalige Anfrage.

- NICOLAS (10/5): - L'accueil, les dégustations proposées, la vue, la chambre Rien
- Edvins (3/5): - A decent terrace on the top floor. The pool is very small and shallow, more decorative than functional. Attention! Very dirty!!!
Around the hotel and in the room itself it was very dirty! The shower cabin and the toilet were very dirty, with traces of previous guests. The room is very small. The sofa bed is uncomfortable. The room was stuffy. Slippers are not provided.
We often stay in Barcelona, and this is the worst hotel we have stayed in. It is more of a hostel than a hotel!

Gute Lage
ruhig gelegen
Frühstück mit traumhafter Aussicht Leider wurden nicht zwei Zimmer mit getrennten Betten für uns reserviert, sodass wir nach einer Nacht umziehen mussten.
- Ioanna (6/5): - Μας άρεσε η τοποθεσία και το προσωπικό που ήταν ευγενικό και πολύ εξυπηρετικό! Το δωμάτιο ήταν αρκετά μικρό, δεν είχε χώρο ούτε για να ανοίξουμε τις βαλίτσες μας και να περνάμε. Από καθαριότητα ήταν οκέι! Γενικά δεν αξίζει σαν κατάλυμα καθώς είναι πολύ υπερεκτιμημένο και σίγουρα δεν αξίζει τα χρήματα του!
- Hadrien (9/5): -
- Deborah (9/5): - Location and staff were perfect’
- Yvonne (9/5): - Lage Frühstück
- Kenny (9/5): Lovely stay in modern hotel with nice central location - Breakfast on rooftop with nice view Bathroom was ultra modern and a bit different
- Hannah (10/5): Superb location - Superb location for exploring Barcelona and near to metro/ bus stops. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Rooftop terrace had fantastic views of the city skyline, we enjoyed the free live music. The buffet breakfast was very good. We would definitely stay again. Tea, coffee, milk and sugar were not replaced daily. However, staff were happy to provide extra at reception on request.
- Andrea (9/5): -
- Hanna (10/5): -
- Jakub (10/5): - Hotel is located right next to Arc de Triomf, only a 5-minute walk to Via Laietana (where you can get lost in the charming streets of Barcelona), 10 minutes to Plaça Catalunya, and around 20 minutes to Barceloneta. The hotel offers an impressive view from the top floor, where you can enjoy breakfast. We stayed in a superior room with a huge and very comfortable bed. The staff were very nice and helpful. Absolutely recommend this hotel.
- Davide (8/5): -
- Tamara (8/5): 👍 - Die Lage war ausserordentlichen! Preis für 3 Stern und Ausstattung etwas zu hoch. Wohl wird die Lage beim Preis eher ne Rolle spielen.
- Dario (9/5): -
- Viktor Kováts (9/5): -
- Monika (10/5): - Perfect view from the terrass.
- Diogo (6/5): -
- Sorin (9/5): Quiet place, well located and very nice staff - Big comfortable bed Ventilation system for the shower was missing
- Bartholme (10/5): -
- Jacqueline (10/5): I would definitely stay here again. - The location (tucked away but super handy), all the staff and their friendly attentive service, the relaxing rooftop lounge and breakfast with a view, the fun activities (like cocktail-making and wine-tasting), the room I booked (faced out to the street) and its bathroom. There wasn't anything I didn't like.
- Hector (10/5): - La ubicación
Confortable Nada
- Ivaylo (10/5): Top experience. - The breakfast and location are top notch.
The staff were very polite and responding. The view during breakfast in the roof top restaurant you must not miss. Metro station is 5 min walk. The mattress is comfortable but don’t like single bed with two mattress.
- Karla platenik (10/5): Excelente opção no coração de Barcelona. - Quarto clean, com um chuveiro com vidro que era possível se ver tomando banho (achei super interessante), cam confortável e localização perfeita. Acredito que um ponto a observar é que o corredor que da acesso aos quartos não era refrigerado e no caso estava quente. Apenas isso.

- Tobias (8/5): Ein schönes zentrales Hotel - ohne Pool! - Sehr freundliches und kompetentes Personal! Modern und sauber und wirklich zentral gelegen! Einen Fussbecken von 4,5 x 2 m und 70 cm Wassertiefe als Pool zu bezeichnen finde ich wirklich lächerlich - außerdem lag er mitten im Frühstücksbereich! An Schwimmen war nicht zu denken und der Pool war einer der Auswahlkriterien - und das war lachhaft! Schade!
- Birgit (7/5): -
- Ken Tore (8/5): Bare positivt - Flott beliggenhet, fantastisk takterrasse, ingen støy, hyggelig personale, gode senger, grei størrelse på rommet.
- xiaowei (1/5): -
- Ina (10/5): - The location is perfect, walkable distance from Sagrada Família, Casa Mila, Citadella park, Arc de Triumph and many more attractions. The bus stop to park Güell is very close also. The hotel is new and near it there is a variety of restaurants Everything was nice
- simonkV2643HC (10/5): Great hotel in a great location - Smooth experience overall: clean, convenient, cozy, friendly staff
It was a pleasure to stay there.
- Nicole (10/5): Great staff, made it enjoyable + lots of fun! Breakfast was lovely by the pool too! - Great staff, made it enjoyable + lots of fun! Breakfast was lovely by the pool too!

- dorothyaH9353WA (10/5): Great location and lovely rooftop breakfast - Very clean hotel in a great central location, perfect for exploring the city.
The rooftop breakfast was a really nice touch with a great atmosphere.
- Tom (9/5): -
- BaneV91 (8/5): -
- Tanja (10/5): - Zeer vriendelijk, zeer behulpzaam, modern, kleine maar confortable kamers, goed ingericht. Uitgebreid ontbijt. Dat je ook buiten kunt nuttigen. Je lag wel een stukje van het stadsgedeelte, zwembad was plonsbad en niet gezellig daar iedereen er rond zit om iets te drinken.
- Jonathan (10/5): - Breakfast, roof terrace, small pool.
Staff is
- Nerrim (10/5): -
- Caio (10/5): Localização excelente e funcionários muito prestativos, destaque para o atendimento na recepção do Eduardo! - Acomodações perfeitas!
- Dorthy (8/5): A good adult hotel. We would recommend - Loved the free beer tasting and the amazing breakfasts with views on the rooftop.
Bed was comfortable, staff were amazing, location is close to the ocean port and the Gothic quarter Problem with the toilet on two occasions.
- Susanne (8/5): -
- Ryzhenkov (9/5): The best options for the price you paid - Location of the hotel is wonderful. The room was cleaned daily. Hotel restaurant is located on top floor with the beautiful view. Personnel was very friendly. Floor looks like dirty but most likely it was clean but surface need to be renovated. The room size is quite small, but it fit for purpose.
- perdikeas (7/5): -
- Liberato (10/5): - Pulizia, gentilezza dello staff, camera comoda, posizione dell'hotel,colazione. Niente
- Florin-Eduard Badea (10/5): - No early check-in...
- Elif Şule (7/5): - Otelin konumu iyi, gezilecek bir sürü yere yürüme mesafesindeydi. Odalar temizdi. Kahvaltısı iyiydi. Odaların stili biraz garipti, kullanım alanı çok küçük kalmış. Sonradan 1 gün daha rezervasyon ekledik 3te biri fiyatına eklediler. Son anda fiyat bakmakta fayda varmış biz fiyatlar artmasın diye boşuna erken almışız.
- adrianwO495RV (10/5): A Perfect Adults-Only Escape in Barcelona with Stunning Rooftop Views - We had an amazing stay at Hotel REC in Barcelona and could not recommend it more highly. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations.
One of the absolute highlights was the rooftop bar — the views were stunning and made for the perfect place to relax after a day exploring the city. It really added something special to our stay.
We were also pleasantly surprised by the free wine and beer tasting sessions. It’s such a unique touch, and the fact that they were conducted in English made it even more enjoyable. A special mention goes to Carlos, who hosted the tasting — he was fantastic, engaging, and made the whole experience fun and memorable.
The location was another big plus. Being so close to Arc de Triomf made it easy to get to all the main tourist attractions, while still being in an area that wasn’t too busy or overcrowded.
We also really appreciated that the hotel is adults-only, which made for a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere throughout our stay.
Overall, an incredible experience with thoughtful extras that made our trip even better. We would definitely stay here again!
