calliopecruiser Posted September 6, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I highly recommend you add Hotel 1898 to your list. I thought it was fantastic and also had a great location in addition to the comforts of the hotel itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pet Nit Noy Posted September 10, 2013 #4 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Looking for a luxury hotel in barcelona. Hotel arts, w, abac. Mandarin. Any in-put? Thank you I recommend the Mandarin on the basis of location. It's located on Passeig de Gracia in somewhat north of the Playa Cataluyna. That's a great place for easy access to both the Gothic Quarter (heading south) and the fascinating Gaudi structures (heading north) up the P. de Gracia. With the constant noise and crowds on La Rambla, I would not put any hotel located there in the luxury category no matter how many stars it has. We stayed at the Renaissance Barcelona, not quite in the luxury category but near the Mandarin and in even quieter location on Pau Claris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted September 11, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 11, 2013 You have good choices. I would read through reviews on Trip Advisor. Most people have not stayed at all of them to compare. We have stayed at Hotel Arts. Yes, it is not located in the heart of the tourist area. For us that was a preference and we greatly enjoyed the hotel. Consider a club room if you book the hotel.

I believe the OP is looking to book a room the end of November, so noise & crowds are down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calliopecruiser Posted September 11, 2013 #7 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Having stayed twice in Hotel 1898 on La Rambla - both in October - I can tell you that there was no noise in the room (either from the street, or the corridors) unless I chose to open the window, and the rooftop patio was an oasis of calm at night after a day wandering through the city (no street noise rising to noticeable levels).
