Arc la Rambla

8/10 Good

"We would definitely stay here again. We had a comfortable, pleasant room. The HVAC worked very well. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. The hotel was spotless. The breakfast was fantastic! We took off a star because we had some trouble with the WiFi and the room lacked a few things we would have liked to have: facial tissues, hair conditioner, and a full length mirror. The Rambla was under construction, but that is not the hotel’s fault. Overall, we were really happy with our stay."

Sixties Ramblas

10/10 Excellent

"Vraiment rien à redire sur notre séjour. Un accueil très agréable par du personnel sympathique, serviable et professionnel. Une chambre très propre et bien équipée. Un bon petit déjeuner. Hotel idéalement situé et qui possède un parking à prix raisonnable. Tout pour passer un agréable séjour."
