Another great stay at Catalonia Born

We used to live in Barcelona and each time we are going back we are staying at the Catalonia Born. The location of this hotel is perfect, the Born (La Ribera) is the most outstanding neighborhood of the city. Right between the Eixample and the Barrio Gotico, you are really in the heart of the city. The hotel itself gives the same quality of rooms years after years. It is always clean; the staff is always great, and everything is just as you need. The ratio between quality and price must be one of the best in Barcelona. If you are getting to the city by car, there is a huge parking under the “Arco de Triunfo” which is a 3 minutes walk from the hotel.

Catalonia Born Stay - February 2023

I was very impressed with facilities and professionalism of staff at Catalonia Born during my stay in February. The room I stayed in was very clean and comfortable, all appliances and facilities were in working order. Staff were friendly and always answered any questions I had. I would happily stay at Catalonia Born again in the future if I am visiting Barcelona again and would not hesitate in recommending Catalonia Born to friends and family.

Hotel catalonia born

Great hotel in a lovely location very clean and friendly helpful, staff. The room had a very comfy bed. I would recommend a room overlooking the interior court yard as we stayed in a room overlooking the back alleyway and you could hear some people talking at night. However the hotel is the quietest I have stayed in Barcelona.

Great location, helpful staff and great room

We chose this room based on location (north eastern corner of Born and were really happy with it all. The hotel got in touch before our stay to check all was on track and were helpful with checkin etc. The room was brilliant with a huge bed, great bathroom and surprising balcony. Hotel facilities were perfect and we really couldn’t have asked for more from the staff.

Great hotel

Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Barcelona! It’s in a great location, has lots going on in the area and is only a short walk from the city centre. We had a room with a small balcony overlooking the street and as we had joined the Catalonia Rewards Scheme had other extras too!

Average Hotel

The Outllooking of this hotel is not so good and no privacy between another side of the hotel. USB Port is not working when I complain receptionist reply they can't do anything.

SYED HASAN30-10-22

Good location, basic room

Situated in a very good location in Barcelona, just a short walk to lots of interesting places and good restaurants. Room was cleaned and tidied every day and completely spotless each time. However the room was small and quite dark. We were given two single beds pushed together for a ‘double’ with separate bedding and blankets etc. which wasn’t ideal. The room was basic but functional as we were not there very often and spent our days out in the city.

Disappointed

Check in process was very slow. Rooms are not in good repair - dirty caulking around bathtub, holes in the wall where the shower enclosure has been renovated and old holes not filled, toilet right against bathtub. On the positive side, comfortable bed, cold AC, no noise from outside, good breakfast.

JASON COCHRAN22-08-22

Excellent stay near the Arc de Triumf

Great location, surrounded by a rabbit warren of interesting streets. Lovely staff...very helpful yet not too intrusive. Ruth and the lead breakfast room lady (sorry forgotten your name) were so friendly and efficient. I even got an explanation of how to make the tomato bread. Breakfast was so nice...a variety of yummy yogurt, fruits and granola including seeds and nuts, some hot choices and different pastries, breads and homemade smoothies. Coffee was delicious. Our room was fab...two showers and good water pressure. Comfy beds.

IAN ROBERTS17-08-22

Loved it

I stayed at the Catalonia Born from August 2 to August 8 and it was a great experience in every way. The room was very nice and extremely quiet. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly. The whole hotel was lovely and very clean. We used the pool several times and although just a dunking pool it was a great way to cool off. The breakfast buffet had every breakfast food imaginable. We loved the area, it was so cool with many interesting shops and restaurants and so close to the metro, bus and attractions we wanted to see.

LESLIE SHIELDS15-08-22

Pleasant hotel

We spent a few nights here before and after a cruise. The hotel was pleasant. The rooms are basic but clean. The pool really needs some shade plus there was a wasps nest that resulted in one of us being stung. The location is good, although there are pick pockets operating in the area which is a problem. The barman said he was unable to make a margarita as he had no triple sec but we left we saw he had a bottle of Cointreau! Overall we enjoyed our stay here.

LEWIS GISSING05-08-22

Excellent stay

Stayed here for 3 nights and absolutely loved it. The hotel location is ideal - the neighbourhood feels very safe with huge choice on your doorstep for gastrobars and cafes. The staff were unbelievably friendly and couldn’t have done more for us. Rooftop pool is perfect, gorgeous area to lay out in. The breakfast buffet is delicious with huge choice. Will definitely be recommending people to stay here and can’t wait to return!

Great customer service!

Natalia went above and beyond to help our party of 14. She truly made our stay so carefree and enjoyable. Every staff member at the bar was outstanding and responsive to our every need. Thank you everyone.

A hidden gem in the Gothic Quarter

Catalonia Born is all about the location, situated on the edge of Barcelona's Gothic Quarter but just a 10 minute walk to the Metro station. Often overlooked because of this is the excellent service, attention to detail and ultra friendly staff. There are places inside the hotel to curl up with a nice book or, if you are in the mood, take the intense Catalan sun on the rooftop solarium followed by a dip in the small but adequate pool. Even though we opted not to take the breakfast, we couldn't help admire the wide selection put out every morning by 7AM. Catalonia Born was like home.

MICHAEL WARD21-07-22

Great city centre hotel

Rooms are really good and really quiet Location is superb with bars and restaurants everywhere . The large indoor market is a 7 minute walk and the beach is about 20 . Staff were great and spoke English fluently

PAUL NEWBERRY19-07-22

Great hotel in el Born

This hotel is great, a gem in a wonderful part of el Born that's close to everything. We got a free upgrade to a superior room which was a good way to begin our stay. The rooms are good, the staff are very friendly and accommodating, and the hotel has good amenities. The pool and deck area on the roof were nice, and although the pool is really small, there's a nice vibe up there with a great view of the city. The breakfast that everyone else is talking about on these reviews (and one of the reasons I booked here) is as good as people are saying. Absolutely wonderful breakfast buffet, was a highlight.
