ALMA BARCELONA Luxe

We were here for two nights at the end of a week's road trip across Spain, and certainly the Alma is now one of our favourite hotels. Located in Eixample, just a block away from Gaudi's Casa Mila and a short walk from the Sagrada Famiglia, it is in a nice neighborhood with high class shops like Cartier around the corner. The ambience and decor are modern and very cool. The reception staff are friendly and most eager to help; I can only remember the name of Andrea but they were all fantastic. The rooms are all operated on fingerprint recognition, and were well equipped and designed. Minibar items were free. USB charging slots were provided. The bed linen and mattresses were really comfortable. The only thing missing, which seems to be the case in most Spanish hotels, is a kettle for tea and coffee. The ground floor restaurant and bar were wonderful and we had two great meals there, the gourmet tasting lunch in the outdoor garden area was especially memorable. Even more amazing were the views from the rooftop bar, where we could have stayed all evening to enjoy the lovely cocktails.Unfortunately we didn't have time to try the spa and pool. This hotel thoroughly deserves its five star rating. We would certainly come back to stay next time in Barcelona.

Let me list the advantages of this hotel: 1- Location 2- Very peaceful and nice garden 3- Amazing breakfast 4- Very comfortable Lobby 5- Very friendly staff 6- Clean rooms and very bright I just liked how comfort are the rooms and the I just felt like everything is bright in the room which I felt quiet relaxed. The breakfast got lots of varieties and the dining room is very convenient. I just want to rate this boutique hotel as 5*! Will def come again

We stayed here just for a short layover on our honeymoon and we were very impressed with the hotel. We were greeted with a glass of cava upon checking in and the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was immaculate and the location, close to the classy district of Gracia, is perfect for exploring this fantastic city. Will look to stay here on future visits to Barcelona.

First time staying at ALMA... will definitely return. The hotel we always stay at was booked so ALMA was chosen for our two night stay, Chosen mostly because of location a block from Passeio de Gracia and number of restaurants surrounding it. What a pleasant experience! Staff is incredible even escorting us to our room, welcome bottle of champagne delivered and free mini bar are just a few of so many pluses. Garden where morning tea and drinks and appetizers into late evening served seemed to be always open.

We had a great time at the Alma - this is a beautiful hotel. Our room overlooked the garden and was very quiet. Everything was excellent - staff assistance, garden, roof-top cocktails... We really enjoyed escaping the heat and traffic in the garden.
