Expert reviews
“The Ohla Hotel, opened in 2011, has 74 rooms and suites with modern design. The location, two blocks from Plaça Catalunya, is ideal even if you don’t have a reservation at the in-house, Michelin-starred restaurant Saüc.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Barcelona.
“Smart but understated, the Ohla provides all mod cons, along with plenty of luxuries – such as a clear-sided rooftop dipping pool – and places you right in the heart of the action. The cocktail bar has award-winning mixologists, and the restaurant is Michelin-starred.”

Great location, helpful staff, but could be a little better considering how much you’re paying.
Location
The bedroom curtains did not fit the space, let a lot of bright sunshine in in the morning. No where to relax outside of your room other than the roof top, which had no shade and was often very busy. Roof top crowded with outside guests in the evening.

Fantastic stay in a fantastic location
Location is superb, staff couldn't be more helpful, rooftop bar is great, very comfortable room and bed
if on a lower floor the soundproofing of the windows in the room is not great, you could hear a lot of what was going on outside.

Great from beginning to the end.
The receptionist was exceptionally friendly and had outstanding hospital skills. The rooftop was beautiful and is an amazing place to spend some hours in the sun. Roomservice works fast and the food was amazing.
The Gym is minimalistic and for weight lifting under equipped.

Very nice place with mediocre breakfasts
Location next to the metro station and walking distance to many attractions. Rooftop bar was also nice! Very clean and spacious junior suite.
Breakfasts are far from 5 stars. The choices were limited, especially lack of fresh vegetables was noticeable. Scrambled eggs looked and tasted like made from egg powder not actual eggs. Coffee machine was just a Nespresso automatic capsule machine, no milk foam or cappuccino possible. Rooftop bartender didn't know how to make cuba libre drink :/
