    Small hotel, huge heart.

    rating25 May 2026

    The location near the Arc de Triomf puts you right on the edge of old Barcelona — walkable to everything, yet quiet enough to actually rest. And the staff? Best I've encountered. Professional, warm, and always one step ahead. If you're heading to Barcelona, this is your spot! Joe Rec, Atención al cliente/recepción at Hotel Rec Barcelona, responded to this review Thank you so much for these kind words. Honestly, this made our whole team smile! We'll make sure to pass your compliments along to the staff — comments like yours mean the world to them.We hope to welcome you back to Barcelona very soon. This spot will be waiting for you! 🙌

    What an awesome place.

    rating24 May 2026

    In a word: exceptional. From initial booking to check out the Hotel Rec were customer centred. The layout of the room is functional and minimalist without skipping on the necessities. The bottle of Cava and the fee drink tokens was a welcome surprise. As a vegan, breakfast was catered brilliantly. The location, right by the Arc du Triompf, is on the edge of the old town and perfect for exploring. Eating breakfast on the terrace looking out over the City and watching the Swifts cavorting is stunning. The soundproofing of the rooms is superb. None of those annoying banging doors as fellow guests enter and leave their rooms. Oh, and no kids 😊😁Every member of staff was pleasant and professional. The lockers are a nice touch. Thank you to all. We will be back. Joe Rec, Atención al cliente/recepción at Hotel Rec Barcelona, responded to this review Thank you so much for this wonderful review! 😊 It truly made our day to read such thoughtful and detailed feedback.We're delighted that every aspect of your stay — from the booking process to check-out — lived up to your expectations. It's great to know the Cava and drink tokens were a nice surprise, and we're especially pleased we could cater to your vegan breakfast needs.We'll pass your kind words on to the whole team — they'll be thrilled to hear them.We look forward to welcoming you back to Hotel Rec very soon. See you next time! 🙌

    Great location and spacious rooms, but service could improve

    rating23 May 2026

    I have stayed at Hotel REC many times over the years, and overall it has always been a good experience. The location is perfect if you enjoy being in the middle of a lively area with people, energy and noise around the clock. Everything is happening right outside the door.The rooms are spacious, comfortable and very pleasant to stay in. One of the highlights is definitely the rooftop terrace, which creates a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.What prevents this hotel from reaching the very top level is mainly the communication and follow-through. Too many promises are made without fully delivering on them, and that takes away from the overall experience. It is not quite on the same level as Borneta or Grand Central in terms of service and consistency.That said, this is still absolutely a hotel I would recommend, especially for travelers looking for a vibrant location and large, comfortable rooms. Joe Rec, Atención al cliente/recepción at Hotel Rec Barcelona, responded to this review Thank you so much for being a loyal guest over the years and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that our service and communication did not live up to your expectations this time. We hold ourselves to a high standard, and we take your comments about consistency and follow-through very seriously. Your feedback has been shared with our management team to ensure we improve and deliver the seamless experience our guests deserve.We truly appreciate your recommendation and your constructive insights, which help us grow. We hope to welcome you back soon and show you the high level of service you rightly expect from us.

    Best hotel stay

    rating18 May 2026

    This was hands down the most welcoming hotel I have ever stayed at. Not only did they provide our room early, they gave us two free welcome drinks, an upgraded room, champagne, water in our room, and friendly faces. We were welcomed by Gonza and Matt and ended our stay with Peter. I will absolutely be coming back, and anyone would be lucky to stay here! Joe Rec, Atención al cliente/recepción at Hotel Rec Barcelona, responded to this review Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you had the best hotel stay with us and felt so welcomed from the very beginning.It was a true pleasure to arrange the early check-in, room upgrade, and those special treats to make your time with us memorable. I will certainly share your kind words with Gonza, Matt, and Peter; they will be delighted to know they made such a positive impact on your experience.We already look forward to welcoming you back for another exceptional stay. You will always have a home with us! Warmest regards,

    Great pre-cruise stay

    rating16 May 2026

    Great hotel in a wonderful location; convenient to many destinations. Staff was very helpful and room was spotless. There is an excellent breakfast spot just two doors down, the Gothic district and Sagrada Familia are both in walking distance.
