  Great location for the centre, but falls short elsewhere.

  05 Apr 2026

  Don’t be misled by the photos on the website—they don’t reflect the reality of our stay.The room was not properly cleaned, particularly around the edges, and there was visible mould around the shower fittings. The wardrobe door was also damaged and appeared to have been repaired multiple times without success.Due to the high temperatures during our stay, we struggled to sleep. Unfortunately, the air conditioning unit could not be set below 21°C. When we asked at reception, the staff member was polite and friendly but explained that the system could not be adjusted unless seasonal changes were made across the entire hotel. We were advised to keep the window open at night instead.However, this wasn’t a viable solution. The hotel’s location meant there was significant noise outside late into the night, including shouting, arguments, and disturbances from people in the area—often continuing until around 3am. This left us choosing between being uncomfortably hot or being kept awake by noise.The breakfast was freshly laid out all morning with staff topping items as it was consumed, additionally, the dining tables were not presented as shown in the promotional images. Instead of fully set tables, they were laid out very simply with just a side plate, cutlery, and a napkin.The immediate surroundings of the hotel were also not particularly appealing, with a high concentration of kebab shops, vape stores, tourist trinket shops and phone shops. That said, it is only a short walk into the main city centre, where the atmosphere is much more vibrant and the streets are far more pleasant.

  Lovely trip to Barcelona for my Wife's birthday

  12 Mar 2026

  We just returned from a lovely stay at Hotel Niu, where we went for 4 nights to celebrate my Wife's birthday.Our room which we upgraded from the standard room was very nice.Big shout out to Luna, Simon & Alex on the front desk, who were friendly, helpful & just all round wonderful - thank you to all of you.Positives - great position to get around, friendly & comfortable, birthday basket for my Wife, gluten free bread available every morning.Negatives - our room was quite noisy (nothing that can be done really when you bear in mind the position of the hotel), the area is quite grubby & feels slightly dodgy, the coffee machine at breakfast never really worked & nothing was done about it.

  Nice stay

  Nice hotel and rooms have everything needed. The location is good for visiting sites around Barcelona, but it did feel slightly uncomfortable walking back to the hotel in the dark as the area isn’t the best. Breakfast is good and plenty to choose from. Staff very helpful and friendly.

  Lovely relaxing city break

  07 Apr 2025

  Had a fantastic long weekend seeing all the sights. The hotel is ideally sited to the main areas to visit. The hotel was very clean & tidy with the staff being helpful especially the young lady receptionist who went out of her way to make you feel welcome and advised us where to eat, excellent all round.

  Awesome

  Small homey vibe with very attentive and kind staff. Great location and room cleaning, as well. Facilities are well kept and it is very safe, as the door is locked at night and a concierge is there 24/7. Would definitely return again, no issues.
