Serviceable, great location

Fantastic location, 2 blocks from waterfront and all of ramblas and gothic quarter walkable. Serviceable and worth the money. I found the beds hard and wish it had a bidet like most hotels. We had a necklace snatch attempt in the doorway and the front desk seemed not to care. But petty street crime Ina tourist district is just a thing

Hidden gem, Affordable and safe

Hotel Canton is a hidden gem (literally!). Barcelona has been the most expensive city to stay in on our trip so far, but this location was absolutely perfect. If you are looking for an affordable hotel that is right where the action is, this is the place.

Canton Hotel is a modern, comfortable spot in Barcelona’s historic center. It’s an easy walk to landmarks, the room and area had everything I needed for a great stay. I especially enjoyed wandering the narrow streets, walking to the Palau de la Música and Gaudí locations. Highly recommend for a convenient and enjoyable stay for solo travelers and mature adults.
