    A few blocks from a metro station, walking distance to some restaurants and bars. Gay, lesbian, and straight friendly. Helpful staff - always with a smile. English ok. Room is comfortable with king bed, custom toiletries, modern design. Cool restaurant, bar, and rooftop pool-hottub-lounge area. Would definitely stay here again.

    I had heard about this hotel on Logo network's "Bump" travel series. It sounded great but costly. I found a reasonable deal by shopping online and booked 5 nights in October, prepaid. The Axel far exceeded my expectations. Comfortable room with swell amenities, an excellent bed with luxorious duvet, good restaurant, great bar. The roof pool with sauna, steam and jacuzzi was a great place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. As a single middle aged gay male, I especially enjoyed the friendliness of the staff and clientele. I can't wait to return and see more of Barcelona - wouldn't dream of staying elsewhere.

The Hotel Axel is a gay-oriented residence set in a fourteenth century building situated in Gayxample; the centre of Barcelona's gay scene, 800 metres from Las Ramblas. The 66 air-conditioned guestrooms have contemporary decor and furnishings in a minimalist style. All have flat screen televisions with satellite channels, CD players, high-speed Internet connections, and complimentary bottled water; bathrooms include showers, bathrobes, designer toiletries and hair dryers.

Guests can enjoy a relaxing massage treatment at the hotel's spa, or unwind in the Finnish sauna, Hamam or jetted tub. The spa has an outdoor swimming pool on the roof terrace, which has panoramic views of the city. In El Comedor del Axel guests can enjoy Mediterranean fusion cuisine in a restaurant with smart contemporary decor and furnishings. Breakfast includes artisan-baked goods and freshly squeezed juices. On Thursday nights guests can enjoy the Shimai show, a memorable drag queen show while they dine. The Sky Bar is beside the pool on the roof terrace and guests can enjoy light meals, salads and sandwiches and stunning views over Barcelona. In the evenings, the Sky Bar is a cocktail bar, also open to the public. Cocktails and drinks are also served in the inviting chill out room, and room service is available. The hotel has its own two story boutique selling men's designer clothing. For business clients, the Axel has conference and meeting facilities and parking is available nearby. Most of Barcelona's key attractions are within easy reach with Las Ramblas, Casa Mila, the department store El Corte Ingles and La Sagrada Familia all within two kilometres.
