Hotel REC Barcelona

REC is a good hotel, very conveniently located if you came to Barcelona for a concert at the Palau de Musica Catalana as we did. Close to Arch de Triumph, convenient transportation to major attractions. I hotel is clean but lacks a few conveniences, no mini fridge in our room, not enough space to unpack or hang things. Overall we had a normal experience

The staff was friendly and efficient. The building was in a great location. I loved the environmental friendly theme. Although the room was spotlessly clean, the shower drain was not great and water seeped out of the shower onto the bathroom floor soaking the floor towel.

Barcelona Treasure Near Arc de Triomf Just discovered the perfect home base for Barcelona adventures! This hotel next to Arc de Triomf couldn't be better positioned - super convenient metro access made exploring the city a breeze. The staff truly made my stay special - friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful with all my questions and requests. While not luxurious, the rooms were impressively clean and well-maintained throughout my stay. If you're looking for a well-located, comfortable Barcelona hotel with attentive service and a breakfast that caters to all dietary needs, this place ticks all the boxes. Highly recommend!
