"It was like staying at your mother's house.""The room and bathroom were very clean. A great location, walking distance to many sites. The included breakfast was very good, but I have never stayed at a hotel that had a complimentary snack/ drink area open 24hrs a day."
DONALD JANUARY 2026
"Exceptional""I stayed at Hotel Continental Barcelona from the 7th to the 9th of March and had a really pleasant experience. The location is absolutely perfect, right on La Rambla, which makes it very easy to explore the city and reach many attractions on foot. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any questions. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I really liked the unique, colourful style of the hotel. A great bonus was the 24-hour buffet with snacks and drinks available, which is very convenient after a long day of sightseeing. Overall, it’s a great place to stay if you want a central location, friendly atmosphere and good value in Barcelona. I would definitely stay here again."
PAULINA MARCH 2026
"Exceptional""Perfect location, right on La Rambla and just a short walk from Plaza Catalunya. But the real convenience—especially for those visiting the city and its many museums—is not only the location but also the availability of a 24-hour buffet, which allows you to quickly grab something to eat or drink even late in the morning or in the late afternoon. Highly recommended!!""
FRANCESCO MARCH 2026
"The Heart of La Ramblas""Charming hotel right on La Rambla, walking distance to Plaza de Caralunya. Good buffett and clean modern rooms. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Loved it! Big shout out to Gemma and Vivienne in reception."
LAURA JANUARY 2026
"It was so romantic!""First of all, it's really well located near Plaça Catalunya, and the Gothic Quarter is right next door, which is also great. I was able to leave my luggage and clothes in the middle of shopping, which was super convenient.
Plus, I got a nice room, and every night I had dinner and a snack on the balcony.
All the staff were incredibly friendly! There's a buffet and drinks available 24 hours a day. The orange juice was excellent quality. Since I've only ever had artificially flavored drinks in hotels and on cruises around Europe, it was a real treat."
