I visted this hotel last week to find out what the fuss was about , I have to say the place has a great vibe to it, like another review said it could use a bit of paint, but the common areas are amazing. The guy at the front desk was cool but the resto/bar will be closed for renovations... more

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone. It is very unique and we felt very welcomed from the moment we walked in. It is also in a great location. My friend and I stayed there while in Barcelona and not only was it very modern and clean but the service was amazing. Gustavo who works at the front desk was... more

I like how they tooks this old building and kept the cool old feature and made the rest modern. The rooms are very pretty. We were in the back of the hotel and had a small balconey. It was quieter there. My sister had a room on the street and it was a little noiser. It's very close to the... more

This hotel was really unique; cool old building w/lots of character, modern amenities and decor, good location. Our room faced the street and we had a nice small balcony w/large shuttered doors. It was a little loud when the doors were open, but quiet and peaceful when the doors were closed and the light blocking shade was down. There was... more

The hotel is very beautiful. I loved the decor and the room was lovely but there are a few things I didn't like: there is no room to put suitcases and no closet (there is a place with two hangers) and the whole interior needs a coat of paint. Everything is white so it is easy to see that in... more

Cannot tell you how good the location is within spitting distance of everything including the beach. hotel does what it says on the tin i loved the chill out room with very large sofas and internet. only downside if you can call it one is that the floors in the hallway are hard so you hear people walking sometimes but... more

The hotel is in a great location in the Born area. It has a unique charme and I was really impressed by the design, it is very stylish and contemporary. Not so many extra facilities but it is a little price to pay for staying in a quite original hotel. Rooms are spacious with all glass showers and wooden floors.... more

The Chic & Basic Born has a perfect location in the middle of the trendy El Born district of Barcelona, 10 minutes walk to the Cathedral. The hotel is a very trendy place with very trendy people, so people watching here is great fun! Rooms are indeed special..... Our room was all white, with a LED lightning system so you... more

I'm not giving this hotel a top review because the rooms really could use some maintenance. Almost everything in the room is white, which means that it looks dirty if it's not maintained. Our room could have used a good paint job and a major cleaning. The dust skirt on the bed was covered in stains. The hotel was however... more
