Plaza de George Orwell Tours

This is hotel is a real gem. I stayed here for my first trip to Barcelona and could not have been happier. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was excellent. I highly recommend including the breakfast with your stay. The fact it’s located in such a cool area is another bonus.

Everything was excellent

Ohla Barcelona is in a great location —everything is walkable, and taxis are available right outside. We stayed for 3 nights. The front desk and concierge are very nice. Maria was our favorite- she greeted us with a smile every time we saw her and made an effort to chat with us. The rooftop is definitely the crown jewel—the staff is initially snarky but they change their tune when they find out you’re a guest of the hotel - make sure to lead with this to avoid awkward moments. We enjoyed the rooftop 2/3 nights. There is a line outside of the hotel every night to access it. The view is unbeatable. If you’re staying with anyone who’s not your significant other, good luck. The bathroom’s lack of privacy makes for some awkward showers and wardrobe changes. The toilet sits in a a dark, unventilated “room” with no shelving and lacks access to a sink. Breakfast was included in our stay. We went daily, but found that with the exception of the made-to-order eggs, everything was cold. We mentioned it to the server on day one, thinking it was a problem with the warmers, but nothing changed throughout our stay. We wanted to love it so much, it just fell below our expectations for a 5-star hotel. For the price, I would not stay here again.
