Izaila Plaza Catalunya

Very clean and the location is convenient. Bruno and Ainhoa the hosts were helpful and friendy.

Renovated old building, second floor walk up or use the tiny old elevator Entrance to the hotel is not easy to find but see photos. Parking deck (~$20 per day) is 1 block away. Metro station is 1 block away, bus stop on the same block. Las Ramblas is 10 min walk- this is a very touristy area, but centrally located so if you don’t mind walking, you can get many sites on foot. Short bus ride to Parc Guell. We enjoyed beers on the balcony! Mercado 24 is next door. Hotel provides instant coffee/ tea/ waters at no charge. Cafe/ bakery is on the same block though. We did hear some noise at night outside and inside- thin walls- but it didn’t bother us. Very nice place and we would choose Izaila again!

Ideally situated just off the Placa Catalunya that makes reaching La Ramblas, Passeig de Gracia, Cortes Ingles, and the main Tourist Information Office by foot all within 5 minutes. The rooms are spacious by European standards and are very clean and modern. The couple that runs this small hotel are so friendly, very helpful, and delightfully enthusiastic about sharing their city and their favorites. There's a small old timey-style elevator you can use, but we mostly used the stairs. Includes fast wifi (fast enough to stream videos) and air conditioning. As a smaller place, if you come in at night after hours, you have to punch in a code to enter the building and then the hotel. Highly recommend and would come back next time I'm in Barcelona.
