Attica 21 Barcelona Mar

large rooms and beds :)

Check-in and check-out was easily done, the staff were friendly and more or less spoke and understood English. Our room was quite comfortable, yet the view was quite poor... The hotel is perfectly located in the vicinity of a metro station and the sea (both are just a five minutes walk away) and the center of Barcelona can be reached within about 15 minutes. The pool did not look clean at all and it was noticeable that it is hardly used at this time of year and that the staff hence doesn't seem to care about it. One evening, we wanted to use the internet, which is extremely expensive as it costs almost 9 euros für 45 minutes.

The hotel was close to the beach, in a residential/business neighbourhood. Breakfast (not included) was quite good as well. The A/C in the room didn't work, and it turned out none did, because "it wasn;t A/C season yet". As the room was unbearably hot, we were given a handle to open the window - which would cause the lights to be turned off though.

My husband, 7 month old baby and I stayed here. We were very satisfied. The room was perfect and always very clean. The hotel staff was extremely helpful and spoke english! There was a very big mall with many restraunts only about a 10 minute walk from the hotel. We were within 5 minutes of the beach. I loved that we had the option of the beach and the hotel pool. The city was a little far from the hotel but only a 5 minute ride on the metro and you are there. The metro stop is also near the hotel. We wish there would have been a more organized way to order room service.

The hotel was very quiet, it was very easy to sleep as there were no disturbances at night. I did not like the fact that the window was locked, not being able to open the window made the room stuffy and hot - air conditioning is no substitute for real, fresh air! I also found that the staff were not particularly friendly. When we checked in, the people on Reception made no effort make us feel welcome.

position, garage , no good value for money
