Balmes - Barcelona

Ligger i en kort gangavstand til Pl.Cataluna. Busser og Metro bare et til 2 kvartaler unna. Et område hvor lokale oppholder seg. Masse små restauranter. Hadde ikke aircondition, så det var svært varmt på rommet, men det er vel gjennomgående på alle hoteller på vinterhalvåret i Spania.

Flott beliggenhet. Passe størrelse på hotellet. God frokost! Grei pris.

Good to be able to start the day with a swim and jacuzzi! Decent places to eat nearby. Close enough to LaRambla and starting points for sightseeing for the price, though there are hotels even closer (which of course are more expensive). Cleanliness was good enough, however what was a bad and probably unlucky thing was that there was blood(!) on the […] wall below the sink! Not very visible, but not very delightful. Les mer

Vi fikk først rom mot gaten, med en del trafikkstøy. Ble så tilbudt et rom med vindu inn mot en luftesjakt. Vi fikk tilslutt et meget trivelig og stille rom inn mot bakgården, med koselig utsikt over hage og pool. Siden vi skulle oppholde oss der åtte netter, så var det viktig å bytte rom. Frokosten var god, med ganske mye å velge imellom. Et trivelig […] hotell med god beliggenhet. Les mer

Vi fikk rom med utsikt over bakhagen og bassenget mot et pristillegg. Rommet var rent, men bar preg av å være noe slitt. Sengen var helt ok. Hotellet er i gåavstand til mange av de populære shoppingområdene, og flere gode restauranter. Det er en 24 timers åpen butikk rett borti gata med greit utvalg, viss du f.eks ikke ønsker hotell frokost eller har […] lyst på litt snacks. Det er et godt stykke tli havnen og til stranden, men det er mulig å spasere dersom man har gode bein og gode sko. Alternativt kan man enkelt ta metroen som ligget et lite stykke unna. Hotellet har trådløs internett i fellesområdet, men dessverre kun 90 min gratis på rommet pr dag. Veldig hyggelig betjening. Les mer

Helt fint hotell, med et fint lite basseng, og sentarl beliggenhet. Anbefales!

Vi bodde på Hotel Balmes i 12 netter under oppholdet vårt i Barcelona. Hoteller ligger rimelig sentralt i byen og nært t-bane stoppet Diagonal som tar deg mot stranden. I området rundt hotellet er det mange gode restauranter og det er fem minutters gange til Passeig De Gracia. Rommet ble fint ryddet og vasket hver dag, de ansatte var alltid smilende […] og hyggelige. Det eneste som var litt negativt var at det rommet vi fikk (som var på den nyoppussede delen av hotellet) hadde vindu ut i en liten bakgård. Så vi hadde absolut ingen utsikt, man kunne ikke se om det var morgen eller kveld. Dette er et fint hotell til en ok pris. Les mer

Vi var veldig fornøyde med oppholdet på dette hotellet. Rommet var rent og stort (over to etg!) og klimaanlegget fungerte bra. Uteområdet med basseng var også hyggelig. Må også legge til at personellet på hotellet var service-innstilt og hyggelig. Har sett en del tidligere anmeldelser der de har blitt beskrevet som lite service-innstilte, men vi opplevde […] at de virkelig gjorde en innsats for å være hyggelige. De lagret koffertene våre gratis i 4 dager før vi sjekket inn, fordi vi skulle på sykkelferie og trengte et sted å oppbevare dem. Dette var overhode ikke noe problem, og da vi sjekket inn fikk vi brakt koffertene til rommet vårt. Det var også stille og ikke lytt på rommet, noe som ikke er en selvfølge i Barcelona. Les mer

Familen min på 4 er kjemepefornøyd med servicen. Rommene var helt topp og basenget var greit å ha slik at ungene kunne kjøle seg ned innimellom øktene. Beligenheten er bra, ikke langt til hverken sentrum, bus, undergrunn og alt annet. I storbyer blir det alltids en del vandring i byen, og Balmes Hotel er et godt utgangspunkt for det. Vi var kjempefornøyd […] med Hotellet. Les mer

Lots of good restaurants, walking distance to many sights. Really no 'view' out of the upper level rooms. The upgrade to the Executive suite (10 euros per day) was well with the cost. Parking really tough but front staff was helpful. Would stay here again.

At any other time, this is a great hotel for the price. During Mobile World Congress, it was not worth the EUR320/night...though that was half of similar hotels nearby. Balmes is a gem...perfectly located for my needs, very clean, quiet...though occasional hallway noise, and all the staff I encountered were helpful and friendly.

Paper thin walls, you can hear every sound inc loos being flushed. Waste pipe ran through our room & was very loud! Bed was very uncomfortable & to top it all a maid burst into our room @ 08.15 with out knocking!!! Great City, very poor hotel!

Verifisert Expedia-gjesteanmeldelse

Our room was quite noisy as we were just off the lobby and you could hear whenever someone in a neighbouring room ran water in the bathroom. Jacuzzi was broken for our whole stay. Otherwise it was a very nice hotel.

Verifisert Expedia-gjesteanmeldelse

A very pleasant, modern hotel but our bathroom needs a bit of refreshing. Its convenient to many restaurants and cafes and not too far to walk to Plaza Catalunya for the Aerobus to the airport. I had booked a Standard Room but happily, was given a room with a separate sitting room. So well done, Hotel Balmes! But why do European hotels not supply […] a kettle for tea and coffee like all hotels in the rest of the world as we Brits like a cup of tea first thing in the morning. Les mer

We were fairly disappointed with the Hotel Balmes for one reason in particular. The walls were paper-thin. We heard everything that happened on our floor and on the floor below us, because our room was a two-floor loft. This was particularly problematic when at 7AM we heard loud knocking and "La Policia!" shouted. We awoke in a panic thinking we were […] being arrested in a foreign country. It turned out not to be our room, but the fact that we thought it was demonstrates how thin these walls are. I wouldn't recommend staying here if you are a light sleeper. In addition to this, our shower wouldn't drain, and when we asked the front desk about it, there was no offer to fix it or move us to another room. They just recommended fidgeting with the drain.

The hotel advertise the sauna and the hot tub. Both didn't work. We stayed 4 nights and still nothing works. First night I asked some guest that was already at the hotel and he said that the facilities didn't work when he arrived either. Seems like both are being broken for a wile, but all you get for the answer is " we are waiting for repair - this […] way they'll wait forever. I booked this hotel because they had sauna ( which is actually the steam room, but it doesn't matter since it's not working) and the hot tub, so we could relax there after long walks in Barcelona. I am very disappointed. Les mer

Most of the hotel staff were very pleasant, but there were some very notable exceptions. The cleaning staff were great. The restaurant staff could have been a lot more attentive. A couple of the front-desk staff got downright snappy. When I asked for help making a long-distance collect call, one of the staff got very impatient and nasty. The advertising […] for the internet service was very misleading. "Free Wi-fi" made it sound like access was available 24 hours in the rooms, but actually meant one session of up to ninety minutes or free 24-hour service in the lobby. We would choose a different hotel for our next visit. Les mer

I expressly requested a room with a balcony. This did not happen, We were initially put into a very unpleasant, dark, small room that had frosted windows, very little natural light and no balcony. After complaining to the reception we were re-allocated to a room the following morning. This more than met with our criteria as we had a balcony and a patio […] at an extra charge of 20e/night, which I did not mind paying. The staff were both courteous and helpful. Les mer

Good value for the money. Impresed with the designers adaptation of an older building and merging it into the new. We moved to a hotel by the beach for a few days and are now moving back to the Balmes.

The hotel made for a great stay and was about 1km+ North of the majority of the tourist spots. If you want to be close but a little bit away from everything, I highly suggest it. I also loved the tapas resteraunt just a few doors east down the street called Catalana!

Very nice, clean hotel, close to the Pedrera and not too far from the center of town. Helpfull staff, small but nice and quiet pool and sauna, overall a very nice stay! My single room was on the 5th floor, quiet, clean, without much of a view but who cares when you're in Barcelona. Nothing negative to say, would stay there again if in Barcelona.

The room was great, fabulous size! The location was wonderful. You can walk to many sites and the hotel is near buses and trains. Lots of boutiques/restaurants around hotel. Front desk generally unfriendly and unhelpful. Your room key lights the whole room except bathroom so when you shut the lights off you need to plug your phone into another socket […] disconnected from the circuit so it still charges. Lights do work manually above bed without key lighting room. Found this out last night I was there. Les mer
