Hotel Continental Palacete

The hotel was beautiful. It was originally built in 1863 but is very updated. It was decorated in a Baroque style with gold trim and painted cherubs on the ceiling. Our room was very quiet and elegant and had a sitting room. The bed was extremely comfortable and clean. It was a perfect location on Rambla Catalunya and very convenient to restaurants and shopping. It was nice that they featured a 24 hour buffet. It mainly featured snack type food such as turkey for sandwiches and plenty of choices for fresh fruit and other snack items. The breakfast choices included several egg choices and was enough to start the day. Also fountain sodas and fresh coffee were always available. The staff was friendly and helpful.

The decor and setting of the main room, which was as the pictures, a veritable little palace without prétention as everything is self serve. The all day included access to food, drinks, beer and wine, hot breakfast 7:30 to 11:00, perfect for late sleepers like us. we walked to almost all the sites, very close access to public transportation. Wonderful feeling of being part of the action on The Rambla, although very quiet and charming inside, only 22 rooms.

The ambiance. Friendliness of staff. Free food at the bar.

This hotel, which we came across at the last minute, is at an extraordinary level compared to many other hotels with its facilities. Location is great. Since the hotel was full, we stayed in a relatively small room, but all kinds of facilities were available. The shower was spacious, modern and large, the beds were comfortable for relaxing. Finally, we were pleased with the variety of food and soft drinks and basic alcoholic beverages available 24 hours a day and free of charge. Breakfast and coffees were diverse and delicious. It will be our first choice on our next trip to Barcelona, ​​thank you.

Location was excellent and staff was very attentive. Buffet open all day was certainly an added bonus.
