Great stay and good value We had a great experience at this hotel. The location was pretty central to a lot of the main tourist spots—Sagrada Familia was only about a 10-minute walk, and we were able to walk to Park Güell, Barceloneta Beach, and Palau de la Música, though those took more time (around 20–40 minutes each). Staff were friendly and had a great restaurant recommendation we really enjoyed. Only downside was the wifi—it wasn’t very strong. Overall though, good value for the price, and I’d stay here again.

The hotel’s location is great. It’s a short walk to many restaurants and cafe’s and also to the Hop on Hop off city tour. The Aranea is very clean and the staff were great. One exception was on check out, when I wasn’t asked anything about our stay. Also 4 not 5 because we felt the breakfast is very sub par. It was the exact same everyday and not very good. I would not choose the breakfast plan again. Much better options within 5 minutes of the hotel.

I chose to stay at Hotel Aranea because of how close it was to the Sagrada Familia and also the Monumental metro station (about a 10 minute walk for each place). Breakfast was the standard European Continental style with some American scrambled eggs and bacon. I felt pretty safe walking around the surrounding area. The only negative thing is that the shower stall feels like a phone booth, which made showering a bit of a challenge. Overall, I would consider staying here again when I come back to Barcelona.

We liked the area and how walkable it was. Hotel was nice but I will say it’s not a super big bang for your buck. Definitely quiet and clean but our AC didn’t really work. Most of the staff was kind but didn’t really go above and beyond or show any sympathy. Kind of seemed like they didn’t really care. We were only there one night and while it wasn’t necessarily bad, I would not book again. If so, make sure you are arriving right at check in time or have a plan to not really be in the hotel. This experience could be slightly skewed but I feel like you can find better elsewhere.

Great hotel

Lovely hotel in the centre of Barcelona, it was very clean and the facilities in the room were modern. The staff were friendly and helpful. Aircon in the room worked perfectly. The roof terrace was a nice place to go and read in the sun. My only issue was that I could hear the people in the room next door. Overall I would definitely use this hotel again when visiting barcelona .

Decent location. Breakfast buffet was nice. I am noticeably pregnant and asked the woman at the front desk if there was anywhere I could fill my water bottle, she said "No, but you can fill your water outside from the street fountain" I did not seeing as there were birds bathing in there previously and later found out that drinking that water can make you seriously ill.
