The shower was very small and not so clean. The bed was hard.

This hotel is nothing to write home about but if you just want somewhere to put your head down for the night it will fit the bill. Clean, with helpful staff. Location not flash but didn't feel unsafe and wasn't noisy when we were there. Handy to sagrada familia (we walked there in about 15 minutes. By the way, we spawned the queue the first day and […] went back at 9 a.m. the next - got straight in and no crowds to fight). Read more

Front desk staff helped us figure out tours, locations. They were very considerate letting us keep our car parked for the rest of the day although we checked out in the morning also we had breakfast (nice selection of breads, pastries, coold cuts, cheese, awesome expresso and juices) and they did not charge our kids ( 5 and 8, whom only eat half a toast […] and drunk juice) but they did it without us asking or them knowing how much my kids ate. I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again in a heart bit! Read more

clean and comfortable place, close to subway station. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Thank you.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very satisfied! Multilingual front-desk personnel were always courteous and helpful. Room was basic but clean and comfortable; room cleaning service was sometimes delayed until afternoon, but that was never a problem. Convenient location for walking to several Gaudi locations (Sagrada Familia, the Pedrera, Caso Battlo) and the wonderful CIty Park; a […] bit further to La Rambla but still certainly walkable. Lots of nice cafes nearby. Rates were quite affordable and competitive. Optional buffet breakfast at the hotel was reasonable in cost. Overall, a very favorable experience for us. Read more

The room and property was, clean, comfortable, and had the expected amenities. The location is also convenient and walking distance to several nice restaurants. The thing that really sets this hotel apart is the front desk staff. They are the best! Their helpful suggestions and assistance made our stay in Barcelona much better that it would have been. […] This is the first time I have given a hotel this high of a rating, but believe me it is much deserved.

We really enjoyed our stay. The hotel was good value for money. It was in very good condition and exceptionally clean for a 2-star rated hotel, which was a pleasant surprise.Its location was very good, close to the Sagrada Familia and well connected by metro station. There were also several restaurants/cafes nearby as well as a grocer's, which was open […] well after most shops and supermarkets had closed. The staff were helpful every time & worked 24-hr shifts which was useful. On a separate front, I would book a hotel with a fridge the next time around as we felt it was a much missed item for us. We like to try the local produce & not having anywhere to keep it means limiting our choices or eliminating them altogether. On a whole though, Acta Antibes delivers on what it promises...simple, clean, central & relatively good value for money in a Barcelona stay. Read more

The price of the hotel is great and it is in a good location. While you are out of the room, all of the electricity goes out (your room key must be inserted into a box in the room), which means your room gets HOT every time you leave. When we would return to the room, we would sweat for 30-45 minutes until the room cooled down. The room was never comfortably […] cool either. At night we found it difficult to sleep because it was so warm. If it's not too hot outside I don't see this being a problem, but it was in the 80s while we were there. There is no ice in this hotel either. There is a store about a block away that sells ice, but since there is no fridge/freezer, it won't last long. The staff was very helpful and courteous, and the rooms were very clean. Read more

The location was perfect for us, as it was quiet, but within walking distance to the touristy areas. Also within walking distance to metro/train stops. I found wifi not to be as reliable in our room, and breakfast, which was included in our room rate was dismal. A few yogurts, fruit salad, 2 types of cereal, although the milk for the cereal was hot […] which makes no sense, a few different types of breads and juice. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. We walked or took the metro everywhere, it was very conveniently located. Free wifi was great and rooms were very clean and comfortable, though spare. Other extras were not well priced. Breakfast buffet was too expensive and they charge for laundry by piece (dry cleaning) so we walked 20 mins to a self service […] laundromat. Only other thing is that I wish there was an option to not have the room cleaned every day. We could use the same towels and everything. Also they need soap dishes in the bathrooms because soap gets everywhere. 4 stars overall though! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

We would stay here again - the room was clean and big enough. The staff was friendly and helpful, and spoke English. There was a nice breakfast every morning - much better than many we've found in Spain. The location was very good in some respects - four blocks from the La Sagrada Familia, and about the same from the Monumental Bull Ring (not much use […] now since they have banned bull fights in Barcelona). Lots of nice restaurants in the neighborhood. Very safe to walk at night. There is a Metro stop two blocks away. In order to travel to the city center and the Rambla, we had to transfer to a second subway line. This required with a long walk in the subway station to make the change. We enjoyed our stay and were made to feel welcome by the staff, I recommend this hotel. Read more

Good location, facilities and service!!

Genuine Expedia guest review

friendly staff, clean and comfortable hotel close to monumental station

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent location - close to La Sagrada Familia (6 blocks), subway and bus routes close by as well as good neighborhood eateries. This is a very good "value" hotel. English speaking front desk and very helpful with transportation options. I wish the soap was larger than a postage stamp, but other than that a good deal!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is super clean and well maintained. The reception guys speak English and are very friendly. We arrived a little earlier and they gave as a room right away. I liked the neighborhood. It is pretty close to everything - if you don't mind walking or taking the metro (the station is 3 blocks away). The surrounding streets are very nice and quiet. […] There are plenty of cafes and supermarkets nearby. I am totally satisfied with my stay and will definitely recommend this hotel. Read more

but received clean comfortable room and friendly, helpful staff. Good buffet breakfast! Would stay there again.

Good for people who do not demand luxury and amenities. Clean, small, simple rooms. Friendly staff. Great location. Good home-base for exploring Barcelona and the surrounding area without breaking the budget.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Antibes Hotel is in a great location, 4 block walk to the famous Sagrada Familia church and right by the Metro. The rooms are smallish but beds were great and free wireless Internet much appreciated. Take your own soap, their's is so small it disappears with one shower. Breakfast is included and was great. Kind of hard to find a local family style […] restaurant but they're out there. Would definitely stay here again. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Everything from the staff to the conditions of the rooms was more than up to par for a 2-star hotel. The staff was helpful though nowhere near as friendly as we found in other hotels throughout Spain. The hotel is a couple blocks form the Monumental Metro stop - if you are planning to use the Metro (which I recommend as it was inexpensive and easy to […] figure out), this is a big plus. I've stayed in generally better hotels at a lower cost, but since the hotels in Barcelona seem to be so expensive, I think this was a good deal overall. I would recommend it to anyone travelling on a budget. I also preferred our location to staying on a hotel on the noisy, busy Ramblas. Read more

Thourghly enjoyed our stay here. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Acta Antibes is a very nice basic hotel, very convenient to all attractions, assuming that you don't mind walking. Our room was quiet even though it faced the street. The closest metro is only about a 5 minute walk away (Monumental is closer than Tetuan despite what the website recommends). The front desk offers many good restaurant suggestions. The […] Sagrada Familia is only about a 10 minute walk, and even the Ramblas is only a 20 minute walk. This way you can visit the attractions without putting up with the noise and crowds. The room was spacious, and the shower worked very well. There were a few ants in the bathroom. We only stayed 3 nights so we do not know if the problem was fixed. Not a big deal at all. Read more

The hotel was better than two stars would suggest. It is conveniently located to walk in 10 minutes to Sagrada Familia and 5 minutes to metro station. The reception staff were very helpful. Free WiFi is available throughout. Breakfast was good and extremely busy. Food was quickly replenished by staff as necessary. The room was clean and comfortable […] with no external noise. Good restaurants in the neighbourhood. Read more

The hotel is in a convenient location near 3 different metro stops, and 5 mins walk from the Sagrada Familia. The room was very clean, but a little on the small side. It also had no fridge and the air-con didn't work very well. However it was cheap, and you get what you pay for I guess!

I really enjoyed my stay at Acta Antibes in Barcelona!!! Members of staff were very polite and helpful. They all speak English very well so that we have not experienced any communication issues when checking in and out. Rooms were cleaned everyday.. we also got fresh towels and mini shampoos. The room is just about the right size - not too big, not […] too small. My room did not face the street so it was nice and quiet!!! Pillows were a bit flat but not uncomfortable! Breakfasts a bit expensive - 8.70 pp but you can always eat somewhere else! The most important thing - Amazing location!!!! The hotel is located 3 blocks away from Sagrada Familia!!!! We went there a few times as it is surrounded by nice pubs and restaurants!! 3 mins from the nearest subway (Monumental)! I would definately recommend travelling by bus and metro! It is the easiest way to visit the main tourist attractions such as Guell Park, La Rambla or Montjuic! Buy T-10 ticket, it costs 10 euro but at least you can save your time and you won't get lost... Moreover, the hotel offers free WiFi!! It's always good to have an access to the internet as you can find directions using GoogleMaps! The staff will give you a code and you can only use it on one device. Summing up, great hotel for a good value of money!!!! I would definetely stay there the next time I go to Barcelona!!! Read more

Staff were very helpful, Eduardo was extremely helpful and friendly. Room was maintained cleaned at all times. Bathroom was clean but a little bit small. The shower rod fell but was fixed right away. Overall, i would not mind coming back to this hotel. Very close to Sagrada Familia, our favorite in Barcelona. Quite a distance to the airport though. […] We paid 38 euros. Read more

We enjoyed our stay in your hotel. For a family of 4, we have only nice words to describe our stay, and we would recommend your hotel to our friends who wish to travel to Barcelona. Thank you for being so helpful to your guests, especially first-time tourists.

A really lovely hotel in a great location. Kind and friendly staff made us feel welcome. Exceptionally clean room, slightly hard mattresses, but the best night's sleep I've had in ages! I would highly recommend this as a place to stay!

Excellent for the price. Good location. Clean rooms. Towels and sheets were changed every day. Would recommend.

We booked 2 triple rooms for 6 unrelated women and were pleasantly surprised when we found 4 beds in one room and 3 in the other-even in separate rooms-so these are ideal for groups or families. Air con was good and the beds were solid, so no complaints from us!!!!!

The hotel was in a very good location,couple of stops on the metro.The room was a good size and very clean,same as the roomy bathroom.Breakfast was help yourself with meats,cheese,breads and cereals.The reception staff were very helpfull and polite.This hotel is great value and I would stay here again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Amazing value for money. We had 2 triple rooms. Each one had its own seperate single bedroom with door! The hotel was renovated about 3 years ago.The facilities are basic (ie no coffee making facilites if thats important to you) but in every other aspect the hotel is impossible to fault. The rooms are Immaculately clean with comfortable beds, room sizes […] are good and the bathrooms (which usually are the worst part of a 2 star) were well equipped to a very good standard with a selection of white towels as good as you would find in a 3 or 4 star. Plus they have their own car park which is chargeable but invaluable in Barcelona. They will probably put the rates up after this :-)....hope not cause we will be back! Read more

Acta Antibes is a very good hotel. It has a very competent 24 hr reception with a high english speaking capability, and a very good internet service. Nothing seems to be too difficult for them to sort out in a very friendly manner. It is within walking distance of most of central Barcelona's attractions.

Nice hotel, well situated and good staff. Close to Monumental metro station. Good idea, if coming in from airport, to use the train and then get on to metro for Monumental at Passag de Gracia station. Cheaper than the airport bus. Can walk from railway station to hotel in 15 minutes, cutting out Metro. Bedroom mattress rock hard and rather uncomfortable; […] kept me awake the first night. Solved the problem by getting another pillow and putting it under my backside, in bed. But this should not be necessary. If you want a quiet room, ask at Reception for one at the back. Front rooms will be subject to traffic noise. Good breakfasts but breakfast room a bit small for the number of rooms and could get both crowded and a bit messy, as the staff are not super-speedy in clearing up. Usefully, there was a computer at the end of the breakfast room, that could be used free. In spite of the couple of negative things mentioned, would use the hotel again because of the situation and the helpfulness of the staff.Comments made to assist others. Read more

Clean, safe, good for the price and ideal for short term stay as its more like a B n B than a hotel. For one night, it was perfect for me, however I wouldnt want to stay there longer than a weekend as there's not much happening in the hotel and the outside location is a bit dodgy, but i did feel safe in the hotel and staff were polite and helpful in […] providing directions. Note, its about a 30/35 minute walk from Plaza Catalunya but there is a metro 1 minute away:Monumental. The location is not so centrally located as I thought! Go there to crash not to relax!

Very good hotel, staff were very helpful and provided adivise on were to visit etc. They even warned us about pick-pocket and to be frank, I nearly got mugged. Lady with a 13 year daughter saw me paying for the tickets at Sagria Familia station and when I tried to get in a train cabin the 13 year old girl pushed me to diffrent carrige (undid my bum […] bag pocket) and the mothers hand went to get the money out but, my wife watched all of what was going on and elbowed the lady and both the gorl and the lady fled out of the train! Back to the hotel, breakfast was good. Bathroom was bit small and you could hear everything next door from the bathroom but, as we only stayed one night, we felt it was good value for money and would gladly go back there. People must remember the hotel is only two star and price reflects that thus, if you wish to get more luxury then, go else were. July/August 2011 Two adults, 14 year old and a 10 year old Read more

The main advantage of this hotel is that it is quite close to Monumental metro station (only a couple of minutes walk away) and a supermarket just a few doors down. It is also one metro station away from La Sagrada Familia, a must-see sight in Barcelona. It is also fairly close to La Rambla and Placa Catalunya (a taxi ride from La Rambla to the hotel […] is about 5 to 7 euros) by car. Our main concerns with the hotel is that the drainage system is quite poor, where you might experience puddling in the shower or bathtub while showering. Despite its proximity to places, Calle Diputacio, where the hotel is, is fairly unknown to cab drivers so be prepared for your cab driver to face so difficulties locating the hotel. Read more

Our stay at Acta Antibes was pleasant, it was only 10 min walk to the Temple de la Sagrada Familia, about 7 min to the closest train station and about 25 min walk to Passeig de Gracia where many shops are and also Gaudi's Casa Batlio. Staff is really nice and very helpful. Rooms are small, especially bathroom - but most of the hotels we stayed in Spain […] had small rooms and bathrooms and we are not fussy anyway. Breakfast was delicious - yummy crunchy rolls, cheese, salami, fruit salad, yogurt, sweet buns. I would say breakfast would be in top three of all hotels we stayed (they were 12 of them in our trip in Europe). Good job Read more

We were extremely satisfied with the hotel- the staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was a good standard, and there was also free WiFi in the rooms. We didn't have breakfast, although at 8.70€, and having eaten breakfast elsewhere, it was probably quite good value for money. The hotel was a couple of blocks from the metro station and one block […] away from a main road with good bus connections. Read more

rummet var jättebra, det låg jättenära bus nord, och också jättenära till platsen där formel 1 bussarna utgick från, det enda är väl att kuddarna inte var sköna, frukosten provade jag inte då jag tyckte 9 euro var i dyraste laget, men billigt och bra boende, helt klart bra !
