The hotel was absolutely amazing. I also had one of the best nights of my life in the upstairs bar. Unfortunately the whole experience was marred by 1 person (the rest of the staff were fantastic). His name is Joaquin, he made a mistake (said they had 24 hr room service, which they don't) instead of apologise he became rude and aggressive. It ended up with ME demanding he call the police after he intimidated me SO much I was left in a state of shock and PTSD (from previous abusive relationships which he triggered with his bullying). The manageress had to console me. He is a TRULY horrific person and I have NO idea what he's doing in the service industry. I did request the security tapes of that morning (the shouting and bullying, and physical intimidation he did OFF camera) to sue him (personally) for emotional and psychological distress but somehow my message got lost in the system. A horrid, horrid man. It's a shame because apart from him as said it was one of the best nights of my life (I was going to re-book for another 5 nights but promptly left). Even checking out I requested NOT to speak to him, he then ordered his colleague NOT to deal with me so he could. Despicable!

Fantastic location in a lovely old building that's modernized inside. Good facilities and friendly staff. Stayed in a premium room, which was very nice, good size and two separate balconies which were very pretty - although the mattress was rock hard and uncomfortable. I asked for a mattress topper, but none was provided so I assume they don't have them. Toilet seat was broken, but fixed promptly when I reported it. Definitely avoid the breakfast. It was shockingly bad. A lot of food laid out in a buffet, but it didn't seem like any of the food was freshly cooked. I'm sorry I paid extra for it. Much better to eat in the many restaurants nearby. Would stay again at the right price.

Axel is really well located close to Paseo de Gracia in the heart of the Eixample. As such it’s walking distance to great cafes, bars, restaurants and shops and close to many of the best tourist sites in Barcelona.

Nothing special about this hotel

I checked in at 3:30pm to be told my room was not ready . I said it was not acceptable an a room was found straight away. I felt the front staff need more training on welcoming guest as I did not feel this
