Hotel Raval House

Clean rooms, bathrooms and lobby. Very conveniently located. Good breakfast with a wide variety. Very good value for money compared to nearby hotels.

Don't get taken in by the reviews about the location. The area is not the best, but most areas coming off La Rambla are like this. We never felt unsafe at any point. The hotel was perfect for the 3 days we were in Barcleona. Yes, the walls are very thin so you can hear all the rooms around you, but that did not affect us much. The staff were very good, hotel was clean, room was perfect. Breakfast was included and was excellent. I would stay here again as the location was ideal and there are actually some amazing restaurants around the hotel.

Very near to the metro and gothic quarter, best location but amenities abit less, must bring or buy your things.

The room is located at a great location, room clean and spacious. The staff were also very helpful.

If you want a comfortable stay do NOT stay in this hotel. On first impression the hotel was lovely. I liked the minimalist industrial style decor. Breakfast was satisfactory although there wasn’t a great range on offer. Staff seemed fairly pleasant. But that’s it. We booked as this hotel had air conditioning - our one main requirement for a hotel in Europe in the summer. It did not have functioning air conditioning. The rooms were boiling. At night you couldn’t sleep it was so warm and you were soaked in sweat after being in your room for about 15 minutes. One night my husband attempted to sleep on the bathroom floor to try to be a little cooler. We barely slept while there and my Fitbit showed that my resting heart rate had raised by 15bpm and was outside my normal range - I am attributing this to the heat we were subjected to. It would have been cooler being on the streets. There was apparently an issue with the air conditioning, which could be solved by the hotel staff manually resetting it every hour or hour and a half - which they didn’t do as a matter of routine - they would only do if you complained. Even when they did this it didn’t blow out cold air because of how they had it set. Yet the reception area was affected by none of this and had constant cold air. We suspect it was a money saving venture for the hotel. If it was a genuine issue surely they would have paid for a professional to come and fix it on day one instead of simply getting hotel staff to press a button. Would never stay here again.
