Friendly helpfully staff, nice newly renovated room, Small but nice pool, really nice bubble bath outside. Reasonable quite location, there is trafik all day long in all of Barcelona, it was really great at our room, regarding sound from trafik.

Air-conditioning smelled, if you used it, it will make your room smell, the solution from hotel was to spray perfume daily or change room, but it was all of the Air-conditioning that was reason for the smell, so any room would have smell issue if using Air-conditioning cooling.

Very nice modern room with air conditioning. It was easy to navigate. The breakfast was great with lots of options. The room was cleaned daily and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Having the pool and jacuzzi was a great option and we made full use of these facilities and they were well maintained with a free towel to use. Metro near by and lots of really good shops near and cafes locally.

Very clean and modern decoration. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

This small hotel is located outside of the center of the city but still close enough to make a perfect base location to explore Barcelona. It is also well connected via public transportation. The hotel is very clean, the rooms are good size and beds comfortable. They offer a great selection for breakfast buffet, all food is fresh and very tasty. There are quite a few local restaurants and bars nearby too. The hotel staff is really friendly, attentive and helpful. I cannot recommend enough Catalonia Mikado.

I loved everything.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. I liked the style and environment. Also the neighborhood was good. The breakfast was amazing. I ordered dinner for two nights. The quality of the food was good. but it was expensive.

The elevator was not working for 2 days over 4 days of my stay. The air conditioner was not also working for two days at almost 30 degrees temperature...

I loved the attentive and pro-active staff at the hotel. Any requests I had were swiftly attended to and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. I attended a conference at a nearby university and the location was perfect.

I thought the hotel was entirely fit for purpose and there really wasnt anything I could fault. As a 3* hotel, it was great.

I really liked the location of the hotel since it was in a residential area. It was quiet and close to downtown barcelona through the public transport. The room was just right for me and had the basic amenities I needed. One of my favorite perks was the breakfast. I've been to plenty of hotels throughout Europe but this hotel was one of the best breakfasts I've had! Amazing variety of almost anything you could think of. I would stay here again if I come to Barcelona again in the future.

I don't have anything negative to say about my stay.

Hotel is located in very nice area, and it is well accessible by public transport. It feels to be well kept, freshly furnished. We like bathroom a lot, except the door - semitransparent glass, opening both sides without lock - no privacy.

Door to the bathroom - disaster, no privacy. Triple room seems to be too small, but worse was that it was too hot. Centralized AC, was not possible to regulate the temperature.

The location is perfect, the hotel is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood with a lot of good restaurants around. It is not in the centre, so not a touristic area, which was a plus for us. All main locations in Barcelona can be reached by buses or metro. The staff was very friendly, the breakfast is fresh and tasty, rooms are renovated.

All was good.

Rooms are a bit small but comfortable, and the breakfast has a good food selection. Hotel is located in a nice and green area with walking distance to the subway. There are also some very nice restaurants in the area, but a reservation is recommended to avoid a longer wait.

What I expect from a hotel I stay at is a clean and quiet room, a strong hot shower and a comfortable bed. Catalonia Mikado had all of the above and as a bonus it had a super friendly, flexible and helpful staff. Would I ever have to return to this area of Barcelona, I will need not to look for alternatives and shall book a room here again.

There was nothing I should raise for not liking - for the price I paid I got a very decent room.
