Catalonia Portal de l'Angel

Catalonia Portal de l'Angel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was located in a perfect spot in the Gothic quarter, just open the front door and you are immersed in the events. However, it was quiet and calm in the rooms, the place was clean, inviting, and all improvements were new."

8/10 Good
"Lovely hotel in Barcelona and a great location distance-wise to all the attractions and beach. Great amenities in the hotel. Gym was fab. Rooftop pool and bar were a brilliant place to chill out after exploring all day. Great 360 view. Rooms bright, clean and modern although the cleaning could be haphazard. We had to ask for towels a couple of days as they had been taken and not replaced and not everything in the room got refilled every time but the cleaning was great every day. Reception staff couldn’t have been more welcoming and were helpful to speak to at any time of day or night which was lovely. However be aware that it’s not the nicest part of the city. There were a lot of homeless, drunks and others in the immediate vicinity and it didn’t feel comfortable to me or my teenagers being outside, this is compared with other neighbouring areas. A couple of guests reported jewellery being stolen from them in the street outside which is a shame for such a nice modern hotel."

"Had a great stay 18-22 August. Breakfast so nice & plenty to choose from. The staff & reception so attentive to our needs. A big bonus was the rooftop pool & bar. Hotel 5 mins away from bus & metro & also 20-25 mins walking distance from Sagrada Família & beach. I would definitely recommend."

What is a historic hotel like in Barcelona?

Traditional architecture and period features are often preserved within the guestrooms or public spaces of such hotels in Barcelona, giving a sense of history.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
"Heritage hotel" is more common in Asia and Europe, while "historic hotel" is a term often used in the U.S. though overall the terms are quite similar. The physical building and architecture of historic hotels tend to be what's most important. For a heritage hotel, it's mainly the cultural value as well as how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Barcelona have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In Barcelona, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown.
