Liked: We had an absolutely amazing time at hotel 1898 The rooms were spacious and spotless, with great décor and crisp bed sheets. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with a huge variety of options! The staff were very attentive and especially Victor went out of the way to ensure that we were comfortable.Nothing was too much trouble.The Spa was very nice, 30 min a day for free for hotel guests, I had a massage with Fabricio, it was super, he has magical hands. We also appreciated the bottle of champagne on the last day! Thank you

Many bonuses. Best decision to...

Liked: This is the best hotel we’ve ever stayed in Europe. The roofdeck…. OMG. Breathtaking views all around, it’s crazy!!!!! Can’t believe also that there’s an indoor hot pool available for guests daily, at no additional charge. It’s not just a hot pool, but with water jets that give massages. The staff were all friendly ….. with authenticity :) We had to ask if the place was newly renovated as it is super duper clean. Apparently, it’s just very well maintained. The interior is classy. The breakfast was superb. Although the buffet menu is almost the same each day, just choose to put on your plate different things each day- they’re all delicious anyway!!! They would even serve something special and unique each time, so watch out for it. It’s truly value for money. There are also free refreshments for guests in the afternoon ( though we were not able to take advantage of it as we’d be out exploring Barcelona). We are right at La Rambla street so not much transpo costs. We pretty much walked everywhere ….churches, the market, watching flamenco, shopping, the plazas, restaurants, etc. From the bottom of my heart, I truly recommend this to anyone visiting Barcelona. By the way, this place is historic. It used to be the headquarters of Tabacalera Filipinas. Go ask the receptionist about the history, and they may even give you a free coffee table book if you’d like to have all those professionally taken Philippine-scene black and white photos.

Superb hotel with excellent service.

Liked: This hotel went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable. Outstanding service and I would recommend them to anyone.
