Royal Ramblas

Royal Ramblas

8/10 Good
"This is an acceptable travel hotel in central location. We did not think it was worth the price at all and were disappointed. Clean inside. Comfortable beds. Breakfast was really awful. You should note that the larger family rooms are actually two tiny rooms connected by a strange little foyer with its own door. The heavy fire doors do not prop open, so this would be very annoying with small kids. Staff said they would try to prop doors and then never came back. It’s a fine hotel, but pictures and price make it appear much more luxurious than it is. Lots of construction right in front of hotel. Great location. "
