Location in Eixample is super central. We chose the hotel for this without fully understanding how convenient the location is. Two blocks from the Passeig de Gracia (and less than 10 minutes by foot from Casa Battlo on the street there). About 20 minutes SE to the University and a little further to the Museum of Contemporary Arts. About 20 minutes to south to the Gothic Quarter. About 30 minutes to the NE to the Sagrada Familia. About 30 N/NW gets you to the Gracia neighbourhood. Don't be fooled by the European hotel star ratings. The ratings don't reflect the quality of the rooms or the staff; they are more a reflection of the number of amenities included within the hotel. In the case of Casa Llimona, the rooms were super well appointed, and interior decorations spare (think minimal) but warm (think wood and brass and tiles). Breakfast is complementary at a community table. Staff is super friendly and helpful but generally minimal as this is a boutique hotel in a historic building. The room and furnishings are what you'd expect from a 4/5 star hotel except this is a boutique hotel without the corridors of rooms after rooms. We don't need the full complement of 24/7 staff, business centre, meeting rooms, laundry service, etc. when we travel for leisure. We'd rather go out into the city and patronize the business that locals use: local restaurants, shops, post office, pharmacies, etc. We even used one of the automated laundromats so common in Barcelona (recommended by the staff).

This is something characteristic of old historic buildings in Europe (and elsewhere in the world). The traps in the vent stack for the plumbing system can run a little dry overnight so depending on how sensitive you nose is, you might detect a faint smell in the bathroom in the morning. This is easy to deal with by running water down the drain of the tub and shower before you go to bed. A good way to ensure the traps are well "sealed." We've been in old buildings in Europe and elsewhere in the world and find this easy hack usually works.

Design, quietness, lounge facilities with cookies and coffee, safety, Irene was helpful, proximity to all the main areas- walkable distance. Note- if you use their parking, which is right by the property, a garage, make sure you get a barcode to exit as otherwise you will not be able to access the elevator or garage door (that closes) and exit the garage. We got an extra blanket from Irene- thank you.

The sink and tub need to be scrubbed as mold started to accumulate in the corners. Overall the property is clean, sheets were clean, service great.

We had a great stay at this beautiful and tastefully decorated small hotel. We were a bit a sick at the end of our journey, but at least we had a nice room to rest in. The pictures don't do the place justice in my opinion. We stayed during january, and still sat at the huge terrace a lot, it must be even better during the summer. The "no breakfast" breakfast was also more than enough - toast, butter, jams, yoghurt, cereal, juice, pastries... what more do you need really. A lot of restaurants to choose from just around the corner, and a good location to visit all the different neighborhoods by walking or taking a metro (few blocks away).

The stay was perfect! Located in the centre of Barcelona, in a quiet street, it was perfect to visit and enjoy. The hotel is a completely renovated house with a modern style but respecting the refined details of the spaces. The staff is perfect, but a particular thanks goes to Irene, she has added that detail of attention and courtesy that will not make us hesitate to come back in the future.

If you stay in one of the rooms near the hall you can hear the chatter if there are guests talking in that area (during breakfast, for example). Nothing that can't be solved with earplugs.

We stayed in a large, gorgeous room in this charming hotel with an amazing outside terrace. The bed was so comfy and we had a beautiful seating area. The architecture and design of the hotel, lobby and breakfast area was amazing! The staff members were so friendly and Angela made us feel very welcome when we arrived. The location was excellent! We highly recommend this hotel!

Nothing. It was perfect.

We had a suite with a terrace, which was lovely for sitting outside with a coffee. The room was a very generous size, the bathroom modern and clean. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for us to explore Eixemple and Gracia.

Breakfast options were a little limited, but there is an excellent café just around the corner that serves brunches. The aircon panel has a very bright green light and is right next to the bed, so we had to switch it off to get to sleep. Parking in the underground car park right next to the hotel is very convenient, but expensive.

Room, bed, bathroom, shard areas - all is beatifully sculpted, great loevely modernist ambience.

Doors are too thin, there's is no noise isolation - most guests are quite disrespetful nowadays, and just ignore the fact that other people might want to sleep over in the morning, and just talk with very high voice in front of other guests' rooms like if there were in a bar. I let the manager know about this, asking to send a kind note to the neighboring guest, nothing happens, unfortunately.

I recently stayed at this charming hotel in the room Sagnier, and had an exceptional experience. The location couldn't have been better, situated perfectly for exploring the city. The building's old-world charm, adorned with beautiful woodwork, added to the overall ambiance. The room was simply stunning, complete with a terrace offering the perfect spot for breakfast or relaxation with a view. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, ensuring a memorable stay.

The hotel's room and interior design is a beautiful hidden gem in Barcelona. The rooms are finished nicely and have a cosy vibe. The location is fantastic.

No reception was there when we initially arrived and the lobby does not have good phone reception to call to ask how to get in. Initially, we thought we were scammed for the first 15 minutes while we waited. Once let in, the experience was great.

Incredibly beautifully converted old palacio with a generously sized, comfortable room. A small breakfast was available in the kitchen area in the foyer where we could help ourselves to coffee, fruit and pastries. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a perfect stay!

The noise levels in the street are quite high but this is to be expected if you want to stay quite centrally.
