Condado - Barcelona

Clean. In an excellent location. Pleasant staff. That's what we wanted!

Genuine Expedia guest review

We booked a room for 2 but another friend was able to join us. The staff had a room for our friend the first night, then put us together in one bigger room for the remainder. We were able to stay an extra night with no trouble. The location was very good. Lots of restaurants and bars close by. We walked everywhere. We had no idea what to expect and […] were very happy with the Condado. Kudos to the accommodating staff as well. Read more

We stayed here before (in 2010) and liked it. Very nice people and very helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel was in a very good area of Barcelona. It was easy to get to all the attractions, but not in the middle of the August tourist chaos. The room was clean, comfortable and modern, with nice linens and plenty of pillows. The bathroom and furniture was up to date. The staff at the hotel were very professional. They helped us with rental car return, […] wake up calls, taxis, ticket pick up....anything needed. And they almost always remember who we were without giving out our room number. They are true professionals who take their jobs seriously and because of this our stay was wonderful! Read more

We stayed here for 2 nights during Good Friday of Semana Santa. The hotel was perfect...modern, clean, spacious, and comfortable. The staff was amazing and helpful...not sure if they spoke another language or just Spanish. Our room had a huge balcony, which was nice as we are smokers. The hotel has a restaurant. The rooms dont have wifi, but do have […] the cable internet wire you hook up to the laptop. Not sure if the hotel common areas have wifi, but I did see two computer stations with internet in the lobby. Hotel has elevator and free water bottles at each minibar station on each floor.

I would not recommend this hotel and rated it a "2" overall. . We arrived around midnight and were greeted by the most surly front desk guy that I ever experienced, and I travel almost every week. He didn't greet us at all and basically threw us the keys. When the door wouldn't open, I went back down to the front desk to face Mr. Surly, but luckily […] he had a younger assistant who gladly helped us and was very nice. He became our friend throughout the stay. When we finally got into our room we discovered that there was only one very small bar of soap and no glasses to drink from. I now made my third visit to Mr. Surly and got the missing items. In the morning, I complained about our reception to the Manager and he apologized. He thought that it might be a language issue. Unfortunately, I don't agree as Mr. Surly attempted no greeting at all. I suggested to the Manager that perhaps he could find another position for this individual outside the hospitality industry. Our other disappointment was the hotel's location. If you plan on using the Metro be prepared to walk 15 minutes to the nearest station (Diagonal). Since my wife and I like to walk and the weather was nice during our 5 day visit, it wasn't a problem in the morning. However, it's a long walk at the end of a busy day of sightseeing. All that said, the room we had was well kept, clean and spacious. I just wish the hotel had a better staff, wasn't so cheap with the the bathroom supplies and was closer to the Metro Read more

The staff was helpful, the rooms were clean, and the surrounding area was nice. However, it was a decent walk to and from the metro station. Another train line runs closer, but we only used the metro since it was much easier to use when you don't speak Catalan.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The staff was friendly and spoke enough english to communicate with us. The room was very clean and the bathroom was very nice. It was a decent location, just not too close to the Metro (subway). A short walk in a couple of directions put you among some great restaraunts and shopping. This hotel is surrounded by several clubs opening about 11pm, but […] was not bothered by the noise while in the room. Overall a great experience, but next time would try for a hotel in a different area. Read more

Our main disappointment was that the rooms we booked were supposed to have been separated by a small sitting room. I brought this to management's attention as soon as we arrived (my spouse in one and the two adult children in the other). They showed me the Spanish language description which said there was no such sitting room. However, what actually […] separated us was a small entry-way/foyer the size of a closet (a hallway within a hallway). The room we had 504 and 505 was supposed to have the sitting room. In the end, great staff. Very professional. 10 minute walk to Diagonal Metro station. There are small refrigerators in the hallways (not in the room) that are supposed to be packed with bottled water, and they mostly were not, but at the front desk, one could get bottled water (gratis) and ice. Nice yoga club and gym across the street, next to super market. All in all, a good find and highly recommended. Read more

We stayed here for two nights post-cruise. The hotel is in a good location but not in the busiest part of the city. We were able to use the Hop On Hop Off Bus that was a quick walk from the hotel. That allowed us to explore the city and then be dropped off at the end of the day without having to worry about paying cab fare. There is a market across […] the street that sold food, etc. The staff was very helpful and the room was a good size and very clean and comfortable. I would recommend this hotel and would not hesitate to stay here again. Read more

Great,comfortable hotel in Barcelona. No amenities, just a very nice room. If you plan on seeing the city through the train system, it is a very long walk to the nearest station. that is the only drawback.

We were very happy with our stay at this hotel. We were there only one night between a cruise and a flight, but would have liked to stay longer. The room was a good size and very comfortable. The hotel was on a busy street, but the room was quiet. The staff was very helpful in steering us to the sight seeing buses, a money exchange business, and a great […] (and reasonably priced) restaurant nearby. The price of the room was also very reasonable. Read more

The hotel was nice and in a good location for seeing the sights. We were satisfied and thought it was a good value for the money. We would use this hotel again on a future trip.

Very nice hotel, perfect location. Clean room, comfortable bed, high pressure shower and great hotel staff.

We had a room waiting for us even though we arrived before noon. The next day we moved to a room with a bathtub. Two days later my husband decided he wanted a balcony so we moved again for another 3 days. The management was very helpful and unflustered by all this. All the rooms were spotless and the only thing that I noticed was a slight discoloration […] in the grout around one of the tubs. It was very minor. I do recommend asking for a room that faces the back courtyard because of street noise if you want to open windows facing Aribau. However when the windows are closed the rooms are very quiet. There is a second set of windows with a wide airspace (not just double-paned windows) that really cut out the noise from the street. The walk to the metro is short and pleasant. We walked from the Gothic Quarter to the hotel twice. It was not that long with lots of wonderful architecture to entertain us. Taxi rides from Plaza Catalunya were around 7.5 euros. The taxi to the airport was 28 euros. You can't beat this hotel as a good value. I did find the bed to be a little on the firm side but I travel with foam sheeting so it wasn't a problem. Read more

It was such a delight to arrive at a hotel with a clean and welcoming environment. The lobby is comfortable and cozy. There are 2 computers that are there for your free use. It was perfect because I could get all my e-mail from work and feel that I was up to date. The room was emaculately clean and large enough for 3 people to not feel like they were […] getting in each other's way. The bathroom was large and lovely. The front desk people treated us like friends and were extremely helpful. I will definitely go back to this hotel when I go back to Barcelona. It is a perfect walking distance from everywhere in the city. Read more

I liked that they provided unlimitted (cold) bottled water at no extra charge. Internet only worked in the lobby. I don't know why they insisted it would work in my room, when I was the third person to tell them that it doesn't work in the room

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is far from metro. The region where the hotel is localized after 8:00pm is not so populeted. The room is small and the door of bathroom (suite) is made of glass so I didn't have privacy. Attendents are impersonal and a little unfriendly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Everything was wonderful; hotel staff are helpful, free bottles of water from the minibars located at each floor Clean room (a bit small for 2 persons), mine was the superior room with a terrace Free Internet access; when i first asked about it at check-in; i was given a LAN cable at the reception desk to connect my laptop Place of the hotel is convenient […] for me as i was looking for a quiet place to stay; used to take bus 58 from the back street to placa catalunya Will definitely come back for my next trip to Barcelona Read more

Good quality hotel with friendly staff. Easy walking distance from the hotel to the downtown. The breakfast was brilliant and well worth it. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Booked through Expedia, a standard double for 4 nights, without breakfast. The hotel is very good. I would give it 4 *. Basin no. Rooms are very well caught at the 7 th floor with a balcony (balcony only on floors 7 and 8). Side can be seen the sea. Double glazing and a double balcony door. Airconditioning. Shower. Bidet. Hairdryer. Wired internet. […] LCD TV 26 '. Many electrical outlets. Built-in wardrobe, desk, free safe deposit box. Mini fridge in the corridor (!), Complimentary mineral water. Breakfast at the hotel 12 euros per person. Rather supermarket Mercadona, another Caprabo 3 minutes walk. The hotel is located near the street Diagonal. To the beach (Bogatell) go for about an hour on two buses 64 with the change at 36. Prior to Plaza Catalunya walk about 30 minutes. Before Sograda Familia go by bus № 15 minutes 15. In general, the location of the hotel and probably average, but the hotel is very even recommend! Read more

Excellent hotel. Very clean and well maintained. We traveled with 2 kids- 10 and 14. They had their own room. Staff very friendly and helpful if asked specific questions. Breakfast buffet lacks variety - Overall not impressive but very expensive. Playa Catalunya and Las Ramblas only 20 minutes walk. Save the cab fare. Lots of cafes and eatery around. […] Grocery store across street was great!! Do the city bus tour. It will give you the lay of the land so you can then explore leisurely on your own. Read more

It's ok overall. At a good location but the place has some sort of smell even for non-smoking room.

This hotel was very nice, but it was an approximately 10-15 minute walk to the closest metro station. Other than that, the service was nice, the hotel was clean and the rooms were well maintained.

The hotel is so modern, nice and clean. Look axactly like the photos show on expedia. To me it's like 4star in USA except maybe with less rooms.

We got room on […] 7th floor(top floor), it has a big terrace with table and chairs and umbrella. Read more

If your stay is for business or sightseeing this hotel will provide you all you need. Clean comfortable rooms and beds, nice bathrooms and responsive staff. We stayed for one night before our cruise and had no problem. You are in Spain and do not expect your local hotel size or shape. Overall it was a very good value for the money we paid. Be aware […] of the fact that it is not in the most touristic areas of town, but in fairly central location of the city. Most areas of the town are easily accesible from this location. The windows were excellent noise blocker. We did not hear any street noise. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Condado is perhaps a little bit outside of the main drag (10 minute walk to the nearest Metro station, Pl.de Gracias, which is then a 10-15 minute ride from the Ramblas or the Gothic Quarter), but it is absolutely a great value. Don't get me wrong, the area is still downtown, and walking distance to some of the Gaudi's famous houses. The street the […] hotel is on also has a few clubs, so you will see lots of young people, though the street is not noisy. The hotel itself and the rooms are very clean, the bathrooms are impeccable, there is free WIFI in the lobby (as well as two computers) and the front desk staff are helpful. They do have good breakfast, but it is a bit pricey. Be mindful that they do use keys that have huge key holders with the name of the hotel and the room number on them, so make sure the leave the key at the front desk when you leave. If you are on a budget, you cannot beat the value: we stayed in July for about the same price two of us would pay a hostel! I would recommend this place to anyone without a reservation. Read more

I'm happy with almost everything about this hotel - great maintenance/cleanliness, everything is new, relatively close to the main plaza (30 min walk), and the surrounding neighborhood has nothing to be criticized. i'll definitely recommend this hotel to others and i myself will come back if in the future i visit barcelona.

Genuine Expedia guest review

rooms are very nice. staff speaks english, which helps. only thing we wished were different was the distance to the subway, which matters since it can be tough driving around Barcelona.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The location on Calle Aribau is very convenient as it is close to many important streets, architecturally important buildings (some Gaudi's) and at least 2 Michelin starred restaurants as well as many hip cafe's and bars. The rooms are ultra modern with good beds and free internet. There is a communal minibar shared with the entire floor that comes […] with a decent amount of free water which is honestly all I ever use at a hotel minibar. The service was generally excellent bar one specific concierge, but he was one of six that served us. The hotel does not have room service or a pool and the restaurant only serves breakfast which was passable. Overall a very good choice for someone with an average budget. Read more

Well equipped (free internet access, comfortable beds, magnifying mirror, counter space a-plenty in the bathroom, inviting lobby) Rooms with a balcony (not a view from them, just a chance to relax outside, or as we had to do, air out some stale suit jackets and jeans) Good location in a highly walkable area (Plaza Cataluyna, which is the more posh, […] safer "rambla" about 10-15 minutes, tons of "neighborhood" bars and restaurants - check Dry Martini nearby) Excellent breakfast at the hotel restaurant, and a great staff - courteous, effective and efficient .

Very well maintained, very helpful and friendly staff. Not luxurious, but certainly comfortable. Only downside is distance to metro.

The Condado was the perfect hotel for our family! They had 2 rooms that had a common entrance/hallway. The price was reasonable for the area. They had multiple restaurants nearby. There was a market across the street for anything you may need. The hotel staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was basic, yet convenient. We ate breakfast at […] the hotel every day we were there. We could have gotten food cheaper in nearby bakeries, but we went with a hearty breakfast that could keep us going for the whole day of site-seeing. The decor was elegant and up to date. The elevators were small, but that is just the way that it is in European cities. They had a refrigerator on each floor stocked with bottled water for guests to take at their leisure. It's really is nice to have bottled water when you are not certain if the tap water is safe to drink. They have a room in the reception area to drop your bags if you need a place to store them before and after check-out. There is also a computer with a printer in the lobby that is available for free! It was great to have our boarding passes printed the day before travel!! *** The Barcelona Airport is a total nightmare and you NEED to arrive a MINIMUM of 2 hours before your flight. You also NEED to have your boarding passes printed in order to check your luggage. I truly feel sorry for senior citizens and others who aren't computer literate!! Overall a FANTASTIC hotel for the money! If we ever return to the city, we'll stay again! Read more

We spent 3 nights here during the Easter holidays. The room was neat and tidy and toilet was spotless (at least it looked like it). The receptionists spoke English well and everything went smoothly whatever our issue was.

Ok hotel, room clean but fairly small & door to bathroom didn't really close properly. Double room had 2 single beds rather than double.

The location of the hotel was very good, not too close to the hustle and bustle of Les Ramble about 15 min walk. Tube station 10 min walk from hotel, theere was a good student bar across from the Condado that was very cheap for food and drink. Taxi from airport costs about 30 euros. The hotel itself was very clean, modern and comfortable.
