Just returned from 5 night stay. Booked at last minute based on reviews & price. Location & Directions: Although this is out of city centre, the advantage is it's quieter, better value & the train station is 2mins away. The maps on the site & Google aren't that accurate, so follow these directions: From airport get the blue aerobus to... more

Beautiful and clean hotel with friendly staff but for the price, we were quite disappointed. When we checked in, the TV didn't work. Who goes to Barcelona to watch TV, you'll say ? True, but for the price, we wanted to sample some Spanish shows. The staff was really nice and offered to change our room, but they put us... more

My husband and I booked a package for Thanksgiving weekend through an airline vacation site for Barcelona ,Spain including 4 nights at the Silken St. Gervasi. We selected this hotel after reading positive comments on this site, especially regarding proximity of metro station. Upon arrival at 8 am, the hotel found no record of our reservation, nor could I produce... more

Stayed only one night, booking it on the day itself (at Venere) after we decided to extend our stay in Barcelona. Overall, a fantastic experience! Though the map shows that this hotel is situated quite a distance from the main area (Ramblas, Placa Catalunya), a short 8-minute FGC train ride (no transfers required!) will take you to straight to Placa... more

I took my Boyfriend to Barcelona for his 21st for 3 days and we had a fantastic time! I was quite worried about booking the hotel online incase it didnt meet my expectations but I can honestly say that I have no complaints about the hotel/holiday! The hotel is exactly as you see it in the pictures...the rooms are spacious... more

This hotel was an excellent value for the price you pay. Great location, right next to the subway station. Very large and clean hotel room. You will not find a better value in Barcelona, if you are looking to stay on a budget. Will definitely stay here again! more

Stayed here for 3 nights. A good safe location. Found the room rather small but clean. Room safe did not work. Walls very thin - could here other guests. Room/hotel info in the room was grubby and had been there a long time. Good bathroom with plenty of nicely presented toileteries. One the whole the staff were good but found... more

Stayed in this hotel in late Nov 2006, and we enjoyed it. The reception staff were friendly and smiley, and the hotel room clean and tidy. It was still warm by the time when we visited, but the air-con just did the job. I don't think there's a safety issue. As we observed, the area is very nice and we... more

A very nice hotel. Has alot of character. In the north part of Barcelona but literally one minute away from a subway stop El Putxet that takes up to you to El Ramba in 10 minutes. Rooms are clean. Bathrooms are renovated. Downstairs bar. Staff extremely friendly. Would goo there again more
