I've paid almost 70 euros for the room. It was like a five star hotel room. the gym is not a big deal. small room. though I could run once there also, I could get a better fare on Expedia than their own price for a night.

The Hotel Derby Suites is a terrific comfortable place to stay. The service is excellent and when we needed an extra blanket one was delivered right away. The amenities are lovely, such as slippers, bathrobe, drinking water, welcoming chocolates, and very nice staff. We felt welcomed and that our business was appreciated. It is easy to walk to many eateries, and local sights...the train station is about a 20 minute walk. The shower is like a nice waterfall. There is a swimming pool. It was safe.

Nice hotel, very comfortable bed, nice facilities, the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was very good. The room was big and comfortable. We used the pool which was cold but refreshing. The location it depends what you re looking for. it was an easy walk to st Gervasi Galvan and gracia. also very close to example area. We come to Barcelona often and where not looking to be at the touristy crowded side so was perfect for us.

We are a couple from Toronto no kids. We were looking for a nice hotel close to the train station as we had some day trips planned (Girona, Cadaqués) and this hotel couldn’t be nicer. Even though I speak Spanish, all the staff spoke excellent English. Clean and ample room, and a small swimming pool. I would stay again with no hesitation.

For city touring it is a nice location with good access to public transportation, allowing quick transfer to almost all the main attractions of Barcelona, However, paying in advance for a duplex room almost 1000 eur for 4 nights and being pressed in a small dark room with leaky shower cabin and half of the lamps working, with no other hotel room available in the area, made our stay quite tensed and tiresome. Big disappointment, downgrading experience, robbery.

Dear Anca, Thank you for sharing your review. We are glad to hear that you found our location convenient for city touring and appreciated the easy access to public transportation. Our hotel is indeed situated in a prime area, close to many of Barcelona's main attractions and shopping districts. However, we are sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with the room size and the issues you encountered with the shower cabin and lighting. We offer various room types, including duplex rooms, with our Standard Duplex suite being 32m2, and we would have been more than happy to assist you in finding a more suitable room if we were informed during your stay. Our maintenance team is always available to address any issues that may arise. We understand how important a comfortable and well-maintained room is for our guests, and we will take your feedback into consideration for future improvements. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused during your stay. We hope we may have the chance to welcome you back in the future. Kindest regards,

Nice suite, friendly front desk and cleaning crew. The extra space in the room was much appreciated after staying in tiny rooms/hostels while walking the Camino! Bathroom was nicely appointed but shower did tend to clog up and run out onto the floor

Great reception , high confort, top breakfast and good service! I stayed one week and could also take a bath in the outside pool and some sunny moments at sun terrace with a cold beer from the minibar. The Hotel has a sauna too, combined with som fitness equipment. I will get back soon maybe in private. Thanks Rudolf

We stayed here in 2016 on a trip to Barcelona with our daughter and chose this hotel again as we knew the location. At check-in they have Cava and sparkling water for guests but we were offered nothing. Room #140 was dark, no opening windows and noisy. The shower in the bathroom flooded the floor with every use and the sink didn’t drain (they did fix the sink issue). Beds were good made up each day but they say they are an eco- friendly hotel yet they changed our towels daily despite them being hung up signalling no need to refresh. We didn’t take the breakfast as it was 15 Euros per person and there were great options close by. Our bill was paid in full through Bookings.Com yet they also pre charged our credit card more money after the full payment which they said would be refunded at check out. When leaving I advised them my tweezers were missing and the attendant simply said oh, the maid must have taken them and shrugged. If we are ever back to Barcelona we’ll definitely stay elsewhere.…

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It is always a pleasure to welcome returning guests and thank you for choosing to stay with us again. We are glad that our location was ideal for your needs and that you appreciated your bed, however we are sorry that we did not meet all your expectations on this occasion. Please know that we still offer a complimentary bottle of wine when you book directly on our website. Additionally, we are concerned to hear that you felt your room was a bit dark and that you were disturbed. If you had let us know of such issues at the time we would have done our best to find a comfortable solution for you. We are equally sorry for the inconvenience caused by the sink but are pleased that we promptly fixed this for you. We will have our maintenance team look into the issue with the shower. As an eco-friendly hotel, we take our environmental responsibilities seriously, and we apologize if our housekeeping team did not follow the towel replacement policy correctly. The charge to your credit card was a pre-authorization which the majority of hotels apply, this is a reserved amount to guarantee the booking but is not debited to your account. Once you have settled your account for your stay this amount is usually released but it may take up to 10 days to appear in your account, depending on your bank. Furthermore, while we do our best to keep our prices competitive we regret that you were not entirely satisfied in this regard. However, we do offer packages that include breakfast, please do let us know your preference on your next visit. Lastly, we are sorry to hear about your missing tweezers and the response you received from our staff. Please do get in touch with us directly with your booking details so that we can investigate this. We hope you will return for an improved experience in the future. Kind regards, José Luis Fernández, General Manager
