 I ve stayed at this hotel four times before The first two times were great the last time I felt that it was going down hill I thought that I d give it another go but was once again disappointed The whole place has an air of a hotel in financial difficulty There used to be a large gym now there is gym equipment around the indoor swimming pool and a tiny room with a few machines There is a wall where there used to be a steam room This is a five star grand deluxe hotel that had no water in the water machine around the pool for three days of our stay They have reduced the room prices a lot since our last stay It seems that they have done this to fill the rooms and then make their money from the extortionate bar and restaurant prices It s 5 00 for a coffee 6 00 for a small beer 20 00 for a G T 28 00 a plate of ham with bread I personally love the location of the hotel as I used to live 1km away and have friends in the area But as a base for a stay in Barcelona it is not a great choice It is far away from the centre and the hotel shuttle to the centre runs three times a day at 10 00 12 00 16 00 with the return journeys thirty minutes later Why is there no evening late night transportation Again this smacks of a hotel trying to get people back there as early a possible to try to make a profit I am not certain but I do not think that this used to be the case I ve noticed that from my responses to different aspects of the hotel that Booking com has given the hotel a rating of under 6 out of 10 this is probably unfair as this is still a very good hotel but if you are expecting this to be what is once was or are looking for a truly five star experience then sadly I expect that you will be disappointed
