Great location for train to airport
Fantastic for being so close (1min walk) to Passeig de Gracia station for the train to the airport early in the morning and being in an area with nice shops and restaurants with a feel like the Ramblas, but not as busy. Just around the corner from the beautiful Casa Batlló.
Penalty is that there is a quiet rumble heard in the room (front facing) from the trains running underground nearby. Didn't bother me, but if a poor sleeper, may want to consider.

Very good
Very good location, most of the major sights can be reached on foot. Beautiful old, restored building, Comfortable beds & nice shower.
Extremely inefficient check-in process - we had to wait approx. 30 minutes, eventhough there were only 4 parties before us, and sign 3 paper forms before we got the key card. In our 1st floor room, we could hear a rumbling sound whenever a train was passing below the building. Coffe was for free, but only decaf available. I booked two separate beds, but we got a double instead.

Great location well run hotel
Great location near public transport to airport and train station and right in the Passeig De Gracia area where restaurants are plentiful.
Couple more hooks in the bathroom to hang towels would be nice, otherwise perfect and would definitely return again.

Gorgeous rooms- beautiful decor- cozy beds
Location was amazing. Very noisy front rooms that face the street. To be expected in a city;)
I wish they had a bar!

Beautiful, modern, comfortable
Perfect location in the heart of Barcelona right around the corner from Casa Batllo. Beautifully designed rooms with ultra comfy beds, high ceilings, and lots of storage space. Staff were friendly. Great having an elevator for the higher floors.
Missing a few non-essential things (clothing iron, trash can in main room). Mini fridge items were extra. They're not cleaning the walls, which is normally fine, but there quite a few water/fluid marks.

Very comfortable and worth the price
Amazing room, good location, always clean
Everything was fine, there is only one elevator and mostly occupied by housekeeping

Nice hotel
We recently stayed at this hotel and had a pleasant experience. The bed was extremely comfortable, which made for restful nights. Although the room was on the smaller side, it was perfectly adequate for our needs. Despite being situated on a busy avenue, the noise was never an issue thanks to the well-insulated windows. The location is fantastic, just 200 meters from Casa Batlló and Rambla de Catalunya, where there are numerous restaurants to choose from. It's also conveniently close to La Rambla and Plaza Catalunya.

Wonderful hotel, I would stay here again.
Great location. Casa Batllo and metro station is just around the corner. Can walk to Las Ramblas and good restaurants nearby. The room was spacious with a good sized closet and plenty of shelf space. Bathroom is also spacious, it has a walk in shower with full shower door and both a rain and hand held shower head. Excellent water pressure and plenty of hot water. Beds were comfortable and very quiet at night. There is a free beverage station just off the reception.
More hooks in bathroom to hang towels/clothes would be nice. The reception desk is on the first floor, there’s stairs and an elevator to take you to ground floor entrance. The lighting in the stairwell however is dimly lit so be careful going down as I missed a step and fell.

We love this brand.
We spent only one night before flying back home so it was lovely to be so close to Casa Batlló and Passeig the Gràcia for a last look of the city. We had dinner at El Nacional which was nice and within walking distance. Very friendly staff. Gay friendly.
The bed occupied so much space in the room that it was a little difficult to open both of our bags.

the room is amazing and perfect for two people and the location is amazing
there was no room service and no breakfast and some of the staff were a bit rude. also, we stayed for 8 nights and the room wasn’t cleaned during all our stay, they only made the bed and took out the garbage.

The room was satisfying and clean but the service was disappointing.
The location of the hotel is amazing, it is close to metro, a lot of city attractions and shops. The room we ordered was premium and it was spacious and clean. The bathroom facilities worked good and were very clean. The view from the balcony was on the central road (very beautiful) although with closed windows all the noise of a big city gone away and we could get a proper sleep.
The staff that made a check-in didn't explain anything to us. About the WiFi I had to go downstairs and ask, I couldn't even call the reception because I did not get an explanation how to (it was not pressing zero). Also only at the checkout we discovered there was a dining room with coffee machine and tea where you can sit and eat your food! Nothing was explained to us, nor there was any explanation list in the room. In a number there wasn't kettle/cup/saucer and when we came to ask for a spoon or fork we were told that they don't have any.

Great stay, in the heart of Barcelona. We found it easy to get around by bus or walking.
The room was perfect. It was quiet, spacious and very clean. I would book this hotel again.

Great 3 nights’ stay with lovely service staff
Great location, just opposite Casa Batlo and the Passeig de Gracia shopping street. Conveniently located near metro. Lively decor with a view of the street. Comfortable bed, though pillows were a little softer than preferred. Service staff was kind to lend us umbrellas on an unexpectedly rainy day and free coffee machine in the lounge area was much appreciated!
Not enough hooks/railings in the toilet to allow towels or clothes to dry, otherwise we would have liked to reuse our towels. Complimentary water bottles in the room would be nice.

Lovely hotel in great location. Will return again
Great location, clean and comfortable room. We chose one with a terrace and were able to enjoy some spring sunshine with a glass of wine (bought from the little supermarket next door).
The only negative is that the staff didn’t tell us when we checked in that there was a coffee machine and room with some tables. We didn’t find out about it until we were checking out.

Great stay for a Barcelona trip
Great location, spacious rooms, good price to quality ratio! Appreciated the water in the fridge every night and the coffee machine. The shower products were also nice!
Towels could definitely be improved. The mirror in our room wasn’t flat, which made me dizzy when looking into it (looked wavy).

Beautiful hotel in a great location!
The hotel was spotlessly clean, I couldn't find one thing to fault. High ceilings which made the rooms feel large, great location in the middle of the city, friendly staff who gave us recommendations and a huge comfortable bed! Everything you could want.

Awesome hotel for 2 nights
First of all, location of One Shot Aragó 257 is perfect. In the heart of Barcelona, just a few steps from city centre and metro as well. Our room was quite small, but that was no problem as far as we used it just for sleeping. Hotel itself as well as the room is clean, staff was nice and always positive-minded. If we had a chance to come back one day, we would definitely consider One Shot Aragó 257 again:)

Definitely worth staying, just make sure to select the right room.
My stay at the hotel was generally great, with clean facilities, friendly staff, and convenient location.
Everything met my expectations except for one significant drawback: my room was in the 1sr floor faced the street, which was incredibly noisy, almost as if I were sleeping right on a busy road. This aspect significantly impacted my ability to rest comfortably during the night. Although the friendly staff offered to change my room at night, the alternative was still a street-facing room on the first floor, equally noisy…

Location, cleanliness, super comfy bed & pillows, value— it’s all fantastic! Loved being able to get fresh air and hear the sounds of the city.
The room was a little tight for space, but all of the built in shelving helps.

Overall a memorable stay, beautiful room - would definitely go back.
The room was amazing/beautiful and had everything we needed.
The pillows were slightly uncomfortable. Room didn’t seem to be thoroughly cleaned. We found a gum stuck on the lamp by the bed.

Great location, facilities, and stylish hotel, with a cute little terrace area. Also a useful cafe tea/coffee area with numerous tables by check in
You hear everything in the bathroom from the rest of the room, making it less comfortable to get business done in the bathroom

Strongly suggested, the location is amazing
The location of the hotel was amazing, room service, bed, and bathroom were super good.
There were 2 small LEDs related to (probably) smoke detectors and something else. It affects badly on my sleep and I can do nothing about it

The room is a little small. However it is still perfect regarding the value for money.

A bit imperfection in reception service
Great central location
Staff didn’t actively mention hot water was being fixed when first check in. Learned about this because a customer came by to inquire about the fix. At checkout at 430 am, even though staff confirmed there would be someone, turned out no one was there right at the time. Left my keys at the counter, which ended up okay regardless.
