We stayed at Hotel 1898 in late
September 2026 for just one night following a Mediterranean cruise. We found the hotel to be clean, modern and beautifully maintained. The staff was helpful and attentive. We would gladly stay there again when we’re in Barcelona.
Excellent location
Clean and pleasant staff
Average breakfast but excellent service
Front desk unable to book me a taxi
Suggested Uber or walk down the street to get one
Apparently the taxis outside prefer to go to the airport
Quality of WiFi not good
Despite all that enjoyed the stay.
Great stay at Hotel 1898! Rooms were large and clean, staff were very helpful, great rooftop pool and lovely spa downstairs with a heated pool, sauna and steam room.
The rooftop bar and pool are fabulous with incredible views over the city. Nice breakfast and my room was really comfy and roomy. Loved the location right off La Rambla and it’s an easy walk to Placa Catalunya subway which makes getting around very easy. Very environmentally conscious property. Would definitely stay here again!
The lobby is beautiful and it smells wonderful! The room was very good, the restaurant was good, the breakfast was very good. The rooftop has a marvelous view.
We stayed at Hotel 1898 twenty years ago! Had to come back and it was as wonderful as we remembered! Great location, friendly staff, great food and wine and beautiful rooftop deck with excellent live music.
Beautiful place, the staff super friendly, we were able to get early check in, great location. Food and the rooftop are also great, you have to try the spa. Definitely recommend this place .
Unfortunately I slipped on the very small polished black granite bath floor, hit my head on the tub and vanity and never left the room for 4 nights to try to get healthy. Tub shower is very tight and has nothing to deter slipping when it gets soapy, along with the bath floor. When my wife went to get some ice, she was given a run around from staff? She also got sick after eating a pork dinner.
Location is excellent! Hotel is Beautiful!
Much construction noise in front of the hotel, so beware!
The smell of the whole hotel was amazing. The overall hotel was beautiful and gave a nice relaxed feeling to the whole experience. When I find myself back in Barcelona, I will be staying here!
Loved this hotel, they upgraded us to a larger room that was amazing. Will certainly stay here again if back in town. And location was awesome as well.
