Hotel 1898 lived up to expectations. We had the standard room, which was still beautifully furnished and large enough. Great location, and the sofas on the roof top were very relaxing. Pool and gym in the basement also great. Had breakfast on last day, which was delicious but expensive. Rooms were regularly cleaned and towels swapped several times a day... more

My husband and I just returned from a stay at Hotel 1898. We couldn't have been happier with this hotel, and often had difficulty prying ourselves away from its confines to experience Barcelona. Some of the other reviews I read complained of poor service. We didn't experience anything like this. Everybody we met was extremely friendly and helpful. It wasn't... more

First impressions were great. Sexy cool lobby and understated but classy looks from the street. Up to the rooms with the cases and it still looked very nice and cool.

Upon arrival, we were struggling to get out of a cab with all of our luggage, our eighteen month old son and his pushchair--being dropped off into the madness... more
