We spent 3 nights at this hotel and my overall impression is mixed. Bad points Th reception staff that checked us in was not nice. She initially said we could not have our rooms until 3pm. After some pressing we got the rooms straight away. Not a good start and if rooms were available why not just give them to... More

Stayed in December 2013 during new year's in the hotel and totally loved it. The Location is wonderful, right on La Ramblas and the service was impeccable. Room size was small, but had a balcony with jacuzzi which was fabulous. Service was excellent, the staff provided whatever we needed promptly (room service, housekeeping everything was just perfect and prompt). The... More

Very nice hotel, great location, big rooms. Lobby/bar area very beautiful style and ambience. It was too cold to enjoy the roof top terrace when we were there but this would be the place to be on a summers day/evening. Breakfast selection was great, and service very good, a great start to the day. We would stay here again.

Great location right on the Rambla. Staff appeared to be very helpful but weren't actually effective. Was paying over 400 Euros per night and the shower didn't drain and wifi didn't work in the room. They tried, and failed to fix both.

We just spent 4 horrible nights at H1898. It was the fourth time within the last 2 years and a half, and probably the last one. We booked a privilege room to have space and calm as we have a 5 months baby and the hotel gave us the most noisy ans awful room of this type they have (no228).... More

Superbly positioned on Ls Rambla making it perfect for seeing Barcelona. Rooms are superbly appointed with all the mod cons you could want. Has to be one of the best breakfasts I have had in Europe as well. First rate.

This is a most superb hotel - situated on Las Rambles right outside the door. Fantastic position for lovely restaurants and perfect for sight seeing. The hop on hop off bus is just up the road, and its also walking distance to the beach. Beautifully decorated, lovely atmosphere. Although the only down side was the buffet breakfast.....not that great. Much... More

I stayed here with my wife - and in-laws had their own room. The hotel is conveniently located on Las Ramblas. The lobby is a very cool spot to hang out and grab a drink, with comfortable leather sofas and chairs. The rooms are very cool and comfortable - lots of lighting settings, great bed, large marble bathroom (especially by... More

Booked a privilege room which you are told are situated on the corners but ours wasn't! Half the size of a normal privilege room but for same cost so be careful. very expensive for what we had. As for a 25th wedding anniversary this was not good. Staff friendly, rooms clean although a maid broke a glass in our room... More
