Eurostars Barcelona Central

This hotel boasts an excellent central location, just a five-minute walk from Gran Vía and fifteen minutes from the Sagrada Familia. However, for a five-star hotel, the facilities are more on par with a four-star establishment. The room was small, and the wooden structure meant we couldn't open the window, which led to a damp, musty smell. The gym also requires leaving the hotel and walking another 50 meters. Overall, the value for money isn't great.

Seriously, Chinese guests, book this hotel with caution! I booked a relatively more expensive room type, only to find out it was an end-of-hall room with a massive pillar right in the middle. Fine, whatever. But then I looked out the window, which offered a partial, obscured view of the hotel pool. It felt incredibly unsafe, like a creepy basement peeking situation. Despite closing the bathroom door tightly, water still leaked out when showering, flooding the floor around the sink. The soundproofing is terrible. It was a connecting room with a locked door leading to the next room, something not mentioned on the booking page. I could hear every word and game sound from the neighboring room crystal clear, which was very disruptive. I even asked the Trip.com customer service to negotiate a room change with the hotel front desk, but they refused. Later, I checked the reviews and found a negative one from a Chinese guest a few months ago, describing the exact same room type and issues we encountered 😂 I won't be coming back.

Facilities: The shower design is truly something else. When I walked in, I noticed the wooden floor was already warped. Sure enough, after a shower, water flooded everywhere. Everything overflowed. It would have been a disaster if I had left my luggage nearby. Also, previous reviews mentioned the hotel provided slippers and disposable toothbrushes. We stayed in February 2026 and only found slippers. We asked the front desk, and they said toothbrushes weren't provided. However, on our third day, they suddenly left disposable toothbrushes for us, so I'm a bit confused about whether they actually offer them or not. On a positive note, the hotel offers two free bottles of mineral water daily, which is a rare and welcome perk in European hotels. Location: The hotel is very close to Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, both within walking distance. Sagrada Família isn't far either. While the hotel's proximity to the metro is convenient, we often felt vibrations, which was a minor inconvenience. Our room didn't have any pillars, but it was street-facing, and you could see into the room from the street at night. Housekeeping efficiency was a bit inconsistent; we requested cleaning before heading to Casa Milà in the morning, but by 3 PM, our room still hadn't been cleaned. The next day, it seemed back to normal. Overall, though, the experience was quite good. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic, and there's a parking garage nearby.

The hotel's location is excellent; we could walk to Sagrada Familia, Casa Batlló, Casa Milà, and the Gothic Quarter. The facilities are relatively new, and the room size is good. The air conditioning is quiet and heats effectively, and the shower has great hot water pressure, which was wonderful for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The service was also fantastic. Our flight arrived in Barcelona in the morning, and when we went straight to the hotel, the front desk warmly welcomed us and allowed us to check in early, which was a huge relief and helped us rest and recover from our travels sooner!

Excellent location and fantastic service! I stayed for four days, and halfway through my stay, I misplaced my headphones when I switched rooms. I honestly didn't expect to get them back, but the staff incredibly helped me find them. So grateful!

The room was clean and tidy, and they thoughtfully prepared a small birthday cake and champagne. The only downside was that the windows were completely sealed shut, so there was no way to open them for ventilation, making it feel like a windowless room.

The location is convenient for transportation, it's quite clean, and the surrounding area feels safe. While it's not super luxurious, it's still a pretty good place.
