Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

In my opinion, this hotel falls short of the standards expected from a 4-star establishment. Firstly, the rooms lack basic amenities that are typically found in 4-star hotels, such as a coffee maker, kettle, or even a glass for drinking water. You have to request these items from the hotel staff. Unfortunately, the service at the breakfast buffet leaves something to be desired. While not all the staff members are unfriendly, many seem disinterested, often only asking for your room number. The quality and variety of the breakfast offerings are subpar, and you have to constantly request replacements for items that have run out. Frequently, fruits from previous days are used, and the fruit juice quality is lacking. We were only able to enjoy decent fruit juice on the first day of our stay.

The windows in the room do not provide good sound insulation, and even though our room wasn't facing the street, we were disturbed by noise because the hotel restaurant stayed open until midnight, and there were often homeless people outside the hotel. Regrettably, this prevented us from getting a comfortable and restful sleep.

Among the positive aspects of the hotel, the only noteworthy point is its convenient location, which eliminates the need for public transportation. The reception staff, especially the gentleman who checked us in, were very courteous. Additionally, the room was kept very clean and tidy.

Dear Mohammad E, Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we appreciate your honest assessment of your stay. We value your input as it helps us to identify areas for improvement. We apologize for falling short of your expectations. Regarding the room amenities, we understand your concerns about the lack of certain items in the rooms. Let me say that all of our rooms are provided with a fridge and glasses, and if you need a kettle, it's available in the front desk. We don't put it on the room to give you more space for your belongings. Also, we have Nespresso coffee machines in our Executive rooms, sorry if you don't found it in another room category, we take note to improve. We're disappointed to hear about your experience at the breakfast buffet and the service. We will address this issue with our restaurant staff to improve the quality and variety of offerings and to provide better service. It's great to hear that you found the hotel's location convenient and that the reception staff, especially the check-in gentleman, were courteous. We are also pleased that you found the room clean and tidy. We work so hard for that. We appreciate your feedback, and it's our goal to continually enhance the guest experience. If you decide to stay with us again in the future, we hope to provide a better and more enjoyable experience. Thank you for choosing our hotel. Best regards,

The hotel staff was very attentive and kind. They made sure we had all the things we needed and also were able to answer any questions we had regarding sights or recommendations. Glady’s who was the receptionist was considerate with our unfortunate situation regarding our plans being changed and she was able to work with us so that we wouldn’t be nervous or anxious. The hotel itself is really beautiful. In terms of transportation it is about 12 euros to get a taxi to really anywhere from that location from the FREENOW taxi app. The rooms were modern and spacious with streaming services on the tv. Definitely would stay again

We arrived at the hotel after a very bad experience with Alamo car rental. The front desk person Giselle was simply amazing. She put us in a nice room and recommended 2 restaurants which we ended up going to both and they were excellent. We decided to do a side trip to San Sebastián and she gave us some helpful advice and held our luggage without charge while we took this side overnight excursion.
The hotel itself is clean with good housekeeping and is convenient to the Sants train station. The rooms are good sized and the bathrooms are large with good counter space. There is a supermarket right across from the hotel and also a very nice cafeteria/restaurant which opens up at 7 am not to mention a restaurant/pizzeria right in the hotel. This hotel was exactly what we needed and we will be staying there on our next trip to Barcelona. Thank you to Giselle

We arrived for a long weekend break booked through Easyjet Holidays. Very pleasant staff but when we asked what time breakfast was we were met with a look of surprise and told the restaurant was being renovated. After saying we had paid for it we were offered a voucher to go somewhere up the road. The room was very tired. The ironing room was always locked even after asking and the first floor seating area was closed off. We did have a fridge with two small bottles of water on arrival. After that there was nothing. No kettle or drink making facilities at all anywhere in the hotel. We should have been advised by either Easyjet or the hotel that there were eating or drinking facilities as advertised and offered another hotel. No excuse for such bad service. I would not normally leave a negative review but this really was unacceptable.

Booked City47 for a few days as an extension to a work trip.

The upshot is it's a lovely hotel and we'd probably stay there again. The staff were all friendly and helpful, the room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast was good and quite varied.

We had a room that was connected to the room next door. One evening when some new occupants with zero self-awareness arrived at 00.30, reception were quick to react and quell the noise.

Location-wise it's great; far enough from the centre to be peaceful at night, but close enough to allow easy access via metro to all the sights.

If you're in BCN to party then you might disagree about the location, but for us it was perfect.

Two main negatives:
1) WiFi in the room wasn't amazing and dropped out frequently.
2) The temperature regulation on our shower was appalling. I lost count of the number of times I was happily showering, only then to almost have my skin stripped off by near-boiling water.

It was actually quite dangerous and I got really fed up with it. We reported it to reception but, being British, had left it too late before making a fuss and we were due to leave before the issue could be addressed.

The chap on reception was very apologetic and stated that the fault had been logged but, having scalded most parts of my body, I should perhaps have pressed for some form of compensation.

The torturous shower notwithstanding, City47 is a nice place to stay with some great restaurants in the area and excellent links to the rest of Barcelona.

Good and clean bed. Room was very tiny though, no natural light with the single window so felt it was overpriced, felt a bit trapped when entering. Nice bathroom. The breakfast was not 4 star worthy in my opinion, maybe a 2-3 star. In the bread sections there were only baguettes and toast bread. Customer service was a bit mixed for me. No asking if I enjoyed the stay or if everything has been OK in the Check-out. Very helpful service when asking about direction and other things. Location of this hotel is perfect, central to transport services.

Dear Lillehimbaer, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're pleased to hear that you found the bed comfortable and the bathroom nice. However, we apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the room size. All our rooms have natural light so we can't understand this valuation. Your comments regarding the breakfast options are duly noted, and we'll review our offerings to ensure a more diverse selection. We appreciate your mixed feedback on customer service, and we'll use this input to improve our communication during check-out. On a positive note, we're glad to hear that our team was helpful when you needed assistance with directions and other inquiries. We take all comments seriously and will work towards addressing the areas mentioned. Thank you for highlighting the central location of our hotel. We value your input and hope to have the opportunity to better meet your expectations on a future visit. Kind regards,

The hotel has a great location and offers a great service (the staff is very pleasant and eager to solve any issues you might have with the room).
Additionally, the buffet breakfast was very good with many options. I would stay at this hotel again.

This was a little Gem of a find! The Hotel is located out of the centre but easy to locate and a 5 minute walk from the train station and metro line so very easy for travelling into the city.

It was very clean with friendly staff and a lovely little restaurant that served delicious tapas.

We booked a small double which was on the smaller side but ideal if staying for a couple of nights like us. The Bathroom was lovely and roomy and really clean.

The beds were comfortable and we had a decent nights sleep.

I would not recommend this hotel. Unfortunately, I read some positive reviews before I booked and they were misleading. Hotel is not a 4 *. Everything is very old, bathroom is crying for renovation. TV is small and is in the corner, so one cannot watch it for a long time. Morning starts with some terrible noise, I believe it is renovation. No coffee or tea in the room. Refrigerator is not cooling. We found only one nice restaurant around, the rest are some places for snack. Stuff is friendly. Sightseeing are easily reachable from this location by public transport, but this area is not a city center, just the opposite. In the evening there is nothing to do around. I am very upset I booked this hotel for our trip.

From Sants it’s a very easy walk and lots of pedestrian routes to walk with rolling luggage, should be between 5-10 minutes max.

Good afternoon Mr/s. The difference between a mini room and a double estandar room is that the mini room is a little small, but has the same amenities that the rest of rooms. When you arrival to the hotel if you wish to change to a standard double room, do not hesitate to ask to our professionals team of the Reception Department and, if we have availability, we will change to one estandar room for a small price difference Best regards from Barcelona
