Hotel Chic & Basic Born, Barcelona

Very chic and hip hotel. The staff was VERY accommodating. We loved being near the park.

The room was very hot. The AC hadn't been turned on for the season and when we got back in the evening after walking all day, it was pretty uncomfortable in the room. We had to leave our front door open for a few hours to get the room down to a decent temperature.

The location is second to none. Close to all the good attractions.. Complimentary coffee and tea is great

Showe room in the middle of the room is not a very attractive or practical idea and toilet is so tight

the reception was very friendly and the location was very quite

no double Bett and window with day light

Very interesting design but I would prefer a bit more privacy in the vanity

Someone, I guest cleaning services, open the door 3 times without knocking the door

It was was a spatious room with a special design. the hotel is very nice located and the staff is friendly. The breakfast has a small slection, but quality is good.

The cleaning could be better, the bed was tidy, but the rest of the room was not cleaned during the stay. The breakfast area was quite small, with just a few places to sit down, so you have to be on time to eat behind a table. If you don't mind eating on couch, its perfect.

Quirky and fun decoration . Each room has different led lights that shine down through a fly screen style curtain ….makes it easier to find your room and stops other guests blundering into your door ! Wonderful touch of a communal area with access to water ,tea and coffee with jars of sweets and biscuits . Ideally situated in the city within easy reach of so many sights with the Picasso museum just around the corner and plenty of places to eat out.

Close to transport links only 10 minutes from the center, lots of restaurants nearby .

Room very warm without the balcony door open and then quite noisy in the mornings.

Great bar downstairs to relax. Great location for the tours I was doing that left from the nearby station.

The shower in the bedroom was a bit weird but nothing too crazy. I'm glad I was by myself and not with other people where we'd have to shower in front of each other.

The room was spacious, had a balcony, loads of light

Could’ve been cleaner and touched up

Lighthearted, great second floor social area and creative hall way and room layout. Big windows to open.

There were bikes in the entrance, for guests to use, but they were expensive compared to other rentals in the area. I would think that bikes kept at the hotel would either be complementary or a discount rate.

Cool as a cucumber

Not much….. rooms a little small not much storage but we don’t care about that

Cool hotel, well located and very comfortable

Cleaning team was making a lot of noise in the morning while cleaning other bedrooms so they woke us up several times

Great location, very friendly and all-smiles staff, extremely comfortable bed.

The staff was so friendly and helpful. Our room was super spacious, very comfortable with unique design inside an old , stately building. The location could not have been more convenient to Gothic quarter and transportation.

Can’t think of anything!

Great location, Since reception is next door hotel is kind of anonymous, wich we liked. Nice shower with glas windows in room

Strange curtains on corridor in front of room Really warm in room (in winter)

Nice room with balcony. Creative design of the room and the lobby. Different entrance for hotel and reception making it slightly confusing. Lighting was a lil bit dark as they had a theme for the hallways, but kinda difficult when you are pulling your bags. The lighting in the room was quirky (😂) They had a shared pantry complete with coffee tea and snacks and the lounge area was beautiful. In the room, they give you a bottle of water but you need to go to the pantry to make the coffee and all. Room was GREAT for couples, a bit confused about the setup if it was for family /colleagues. They cleaned the room everyday and their cleaning employees greeted us everytime we met. They do have a bar cum restaurant at the lobby, didn't try it though. In terms of location not really central,but it was manageable to walk to LA sagrada, arc de triompf, born area casa battlo. . There were shops n supermarkets and a souvenir store nearby called Gaudi BCN selling cheap souvenirs. Farqu was helpful during check in and explained well to us.

1) Shower gel bottles were not refilled. 2) Balcony door lock issues 3)heater issues during 2nd nite stay. Told the girl during checkout about it.

Location is excellent

Great hotel with relaxed atmosphere... Liked to use the central sitting areas with coffee and muffins early in the morning. Ideal location with easy walking to port, beach gentral gotic area and park.

The steps from the shower to the towel rail need a non- slip finish (my wife slipped over when exiting the shower)

Very nice location and good value for money. Comfy bed.

Would have been nice to have a mini fridge in the room.

The location was ok, a lot of options for transportation nearby. The staff was kind.

It is obvious that it is old and has not been renovated. There were a few broken tiles. Dirt had accumulated on the corners.

Design boutique hotel with interesting decorative features, in a spacious, heigh ceilinged setting. This is not just an accommodation, but an experience. There are several, thoughtfully arranged, design common spaces when a relatively affluent traveller can chill out, enjoy complementary beverages and converse.

When you chose an hotel like Born Boutique hotel you need to have the appropriate mindset. When you have that, it is a fantastic place to stay.

Location is perfect and the welcome bottle of wine in the room was a great idea. We liked it so much

The sheet was put too strong under the mattress but not such a big deal. In general everything was ok.
