While the rooms are more those of a 3 star hotel and not 4 (but without anything speacial to complain about), the fact that there is kitchen is very nice when you are traveling with kids. The staff was very helpful. There is a free internet station in the lobby, and the breakfast was much more than I expected. I would consider it a 5 star hotel breakfast. It is not in the city center but the metro station (with metro every 3 minutes untill midnight) was less than 5 min walking. Important for young childrens - a lot of childrens playing grounds nearby.

Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo. Ci ritornerei. Stanze spaziose (la ns aveva anche l'uso cucina) e pulite. Stazione del metro raggiungibile a piedi in pochi minuti. Colazione molto buona. Unico neo: materasso un poco scomodo (duro)

My room was on the seventh (last) floor, terrible noise and vibration (machinery probably) came through the ceiling throughout my stay and it almost kept me awake one night. Room service opened the door on two occasions at around 8 AM while I was still in bed. The breakfast is OK but staff not too professional. The hotel is close to two metro stations (5 minutes walk). Internet access is open and strong in lobby but was weak in my room. The hotel is generally OK and the price is good, but steer clear of the seventh floor especially room 701.

Ottimo hotel, camere spaziose ben arredate e pulite. Da apprezzare: un piccolo locale cucina con frigo, connessione internet wifi, colazione eccellente e abbondante. Ben collegata con la metro (a 2 minuti dall'hotel) al centro di Barcellona.

very nice hotel, totally met my expectations; large enough room; great breakfast selection, including very tasty pastry and cakes; close to the metro station; the area is rather a business area (thus there are good restaurants around, the hotel's restaurant was a bit too expensive and sophisticated for my taste); would definitely return here.

We stayed at The Hotel Atenea for 2 nights and had a wonderful stay. We arrived early and were given a large room on the 7th floor. It was very quiet in the room and we didn't hear other guests. The room was very clean. The staff were very polite and helpful and there was a very good choice of breakfast. I had never seen cake being offered as a breakfast option before and there was lots of chice of teabags. My only complaint was that the cooked breakfast was fairly cold and as such not vey appetising. The hotel is a short walk from the metro station and about 20 mins ride in a taxi from the airport. We had a fantastic stay in the hotel and loved Barcelona.

The Hotel is very well placed, near el Corte Inglês, Plaça Maria Cristina and Institute Dexeus. You have Subway, Bus, and Tram near the Hotel. There are many places to eat close to the Hotel, like for instance the restaurant "Mussol" and the one of Institute Dexeus, and you have the supermarket of El Corte Inglês and also very good food to take away on the same floor of the supermarket.

A good hotel, it was great to have a room with a TV area and a sliding dividing door especially as I was traveling with a teenager. Close to Metro stop Les Corts which is only 5 minutes from the Sants station. There is a market close to the hotel and also a huge department store. Good restaurant near hotel is La Botega. close to bus routes on Ave Diagonal. Would definitely recommend - night staff were friendlier than the day staff. Good security.

My first time to Barcelona. The hotel is nice however it is quite removed form the area most tourist would like to vist. We stayed because our sons wanted to attend the soccer match and it ws great for that. The rooms are not as the pictures seem but never the less still nice. There are very good restaurants and shopping nearby.

we were 3 adults. we got, as we requested, 3 seperate beds, non smoking room. the room was big enough. the area is a neighbourhood serrounding and quiet enough. the breakfast was excellent, rich and tasty. the main advantage is that, although the hotel location is not central, its distance from the closest metro station is only 3 minutes (line 3, green line, les cortes). the stuff was very helpfull. there is a computer connected to the internet with free access.

It's a definitelly not a 4 star hotel. Two stars is the most!Prety noisy and you have to request everything, even the iron (and sometimes they won't have it). The whole concept of an apartment is one room devided into two parts. Absolutelly not enough for 3 people. The only convenience is that the subway and a supermarket are very close.

Not fully central location, but well connected through metro line at 100 meters. Surroundings with a few of the largest shopping centers of Barcelona on a primary street as Diagonal. Each room is also equipped with a small kitchen. Excellent breakfast with a great variety of choices.

Buon hotel da consigliare, scarichi dei bagni rumorosi ma sopportabile. Comodo il centro commerciale a due passi, la zona di notte risulta tranquilla. Scomodo per chi pensa di ritornare tardi la notte a meno che non si prenda il taxi. Giudizio comunque molto buono. Conviene fare la prima colazione in hotel.

Hotel spettacolare!! Le stanze sono ampie (nelle triple il terzo letto è un divano letto ma non è scomodo) e la colazione è molto abbondante!!! E' collegato benissimo...si trova in mezzo a 2 fermate della linea 3 (verde). Internet è a disposizione nella sala comune sia con un pc che con una linea wi-fi! Qualità/Prezzo OTTIMA!!! CONSIGLIATISSIMO!!! P.s. per chi va a barcellona per divertimento...le discoteche sono tutte li vicino...!!

Great Bed and Breakfast, very close to metro "Les Corts", 3 minutes away walking. A little bit away from city centre and the beach but taxi is inexpensive and metro takes you to Rambla area within 8 minutes. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Sólo una queja: el precio del parking indicado en la confirmación de reserva (19.20 €/dia) no se corresponde en absoluto con la realidad: unas 12 horas me costó 25.35 €. Deberían tener mejores tarifas para los clientes del hotel.

Very good hotel in quiet and nice neighborhood. However, you need to allow some time to travel by metro to the central touristic locations. Renovated restaurant, decent breakfast which was included in our room reservation. Rooms, lobby and corridor look a little outdated, but clean and well maintained. Staff are helpful and very polite. Free internet service and daily newspapers in the lobby were additional bonus.

Good price/quality hotel. Situated only 300 meters from the subway station "Les Corts", on the main axis Linea 3 = direct connection to the main places of interest in Barcelona (Plaça d'Espanya,Plaça de Catalunya (with departure of the "bus turistic", that circles throughout the city every 5 minutes) , Rambla,Montjuich harbour... Don't bother about the hotel surroundings: no need to pay a fortune for a lower class hotel in or nearer to the center. Wonderful breakfast buffet - warm and cold - spanish "champagne" (cava) included. Free internet connected computer at the lobby. Most friendly staff. Minor remarks : quietness of the rooms: ok, except when some neighbour (beside or upstairs) flushes the toilet or thinks he must take a bath in the middle of the night. The flowing water makes a "deafening" noise. The old sofa in the room was almost worn and could be cleaner. Conclusion : highly recommended, also for business travelers and corporate(see facilities and conference rooms)

If you go with 3 persons in the same room the third person should not pay the same as the others because the place to sleep is a sofa not a good bed. The rest is fine, with a nice localization.

Our stay at the hotel was fine. The breakfast buffet was the most extensive one we encountered--especially the array of fruit. We were also pleased that we were able to check into our room even though we arrived about 9 a.m.! Two complaints: soap was not supplied until the third day we were there (after we had already helped ourselves from the maid's cart) and the beds were the hardest we have encountered anywhere.
