What guests think

At Arc La Rambla, travellers praise the central location on La Rambla, consistently friendly staff, and generally clean, quiet rooms, while small room sizes and limited in room amenities temper otherwise positive, convenient stays.

Long-running street works outside often make access awkward and can create daytime noise or dust, though many guests still find interiors well insulated. Breakfast attracts frequent praise for variety and quality, with occasional notes about limited dietary options or a windowless dining room. Overall, expect a simple, centrally placed base that prioritises location and service over extras.

Breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and quiet. It was two twin beds pushed together to make a queen sized bed. There are large lockers for €2 to hold your luggage if your room is not ready. I was able to fit a medium suitcase, an under the seat luggage, a full backpack, and two CPaps in one locker. In another locker, we got a large suitcase and a backpack.

Great location within walking distance to many tourist favorite places. The room was clean, the staff friendly and helpful and the breakfast buffet had a generous variety of sweet and savory items. There wasn't room service or a coffee maker in the room, which was kind of inconvenient for a heavy coffee drinker, otherwise it would have been perfect.

Hotel has a great location on the Ramblas. The room was tiny with a cute balcony. We experienced attentive front desk personnel, who were very helpful intermediaries after we had arrived in Barcelona but our suitcases did not. The sewerage stench from the shower drain in our room was bad the 1st night and thankfully remedied by maintenance after we reported it. The breakfast, although nice, had no variations and was exactly the same each day.

This hotel itself is a solid 3 star property for budget conscious travelers. It is clean and the staff is very nice. However, the construction outside on La Rambla is a mess. It’s loud and dirty. You need to walk a ways to access taxis. The hotel had a bad odor in the hallways and my room on floor one had no outside view unless I opened the windows with no screens. The windows were tinted and no light came through. It was like an inside cabin on a cruise ship. Note if you reserve the minimum category.

This is my fifth time in Barcelona and I can confidently say this is the worst hotel I’ve stayed at. Upon checking in, we found that the room smelled extremely BAD, and there were a bunch of dead flies in one corner on the floor. We went downstairs and asked if the room could be cleaned while we went and got a bite to eat somewhere. We came back and everything was exactly the same. When we asked the front desk, the response was “you’re not the only room”. Which I understand but the expectation is to receive a clean room upon checking in. I asked if we could switch the room, the only other room available was a double room, but also not clean or ready yet. We settled to stay in the same room and asked the cleaning lady if she could at least take the dead flies away, she did but she told us she never got the instructions from downstairs to clean the room. We kept the windows open to keep the stench out, bought a candle and tried our best to not be in the room for as much as possible. You will feel dirty staying at this hotel, I understand it is a 3 star hotel, but there are minimum standards for cleanliness that should be followed. Any kind of dead insects is unsanitary.

We were pleased with our stay here. The front desk was very friendly, efficient, and helpful. The room was very clean and had no odours. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Our only slight problem was the air conditioning. It worked but didn’t get as cold as we would have liked. I think this is common in Spain but in Canada the air conditioning gets as cold as you want. We really enjoyed the breakfasts. They were delicious and had a good variety of food. They have a bakery oven at the buffet and they bake their own pastries…nice warm buns and pastries. The location was great. Thank you for a great stay.

Excellent My husband and I chose this hotel for its convenient location, close to the port. We stayed here before and after our seven-day cruise. The reception staff was incredibly helpful when we arrived in Barcelona, allowing us to check in early after our long flight from Raleigh to Miami to Barcelona. Our room was clean and quiet, with a lovely balcony in both occasions. We had an outstanding experience in the hotel thanks to Jose Carlos and Cristina's warm hospitality and helpful assistance throughout our visit. We highly recommend this hotel in Barcelona - the staff were fantastic and our stay was incredibly comfortable. We hope to return soon!

Con el personal. Anoche estábamos conversando cerca del lobby. La persona a cargo se nos acercó u nos dijo de muy mala manera que nos fuéramos de ahí. Mal, muy mal. Puse un comentario en expedía. Si, un mal comentario acerca de la actitud grosera e inadaptable del dependiente. La venganza llegó esta mañana en la que el gerente nos increpó en nuestra habitación y nos indicó que saliéramos del hotel. Además, habíamos pedido guardar el equipaje ahí mientras íbamos a la Sagrada Familia. Nos dijeron que por ningún motivo, habiendo ya hasta pagado por un locker. Groseros, Pésimo entendimiento de cómo tratar a un turista. Simplemente exigimos respeto y si no lo hay, que aguanten un trato igual. NINCA volveremos.

Decepção na chegada, que quase me fez mudar de hotel. Tratamento frio e deixaram muitos hóspedes por horas, com grandes bagagens sentados na portaria. Não ofereceram early check in para ninguém, apesar de diversas pessoas fazendo check out e disseram que não guardavam bagagens grandes. Somente depois de horas, o rapaz da recepção abriu o salão do café da manhã e permitiu que deixássemos as malas no local. Pontos positivos, a maravilhosa limpeza do quarto, a localização e o café da manhã. Tem uma máquina automática com agua, refrigerante e snacks, no primeiro andar, mas também não nos avisaram no check in. So descobri descendo as escadas. Assim, acho que a recepção merece um melhor treinamento. Não ouve qualquer tipo de grosseria, mas faltou acolhimento aos turistas.

The hotel is fine. Breakfast and staff excellent. The big issue for the hotel at the moment is the roadworks being carried out on La Rambla. It starts early in the morning and goes on all day with mechanical diggers creating a lot of noise and dirt etc., totally spoiling La Rambla. It needs maintenance, I accept that, but we weren’t forewarned that this was happening. It’s the whole length of La Rambla and unfortunately is not SCHEDULED to be completed until early 2027.

Arc La Rambla is conveniently located to the train, metro, taxis, and Hop-On/Hop-Off bus stop. It’s in a walkable area of the city and surrounded by restaurants and shops. We did not eat in the restaurants on La Rambla, but a couple blocks over are less expensive and delicious restaurants. The hotel is well lit, impressive when entering the lobby, and clean everywhere. Our room was roomy, clean and comfortable with a modern flare. As busy as the hotel is, it was quite quiet. Our terrace was in the back of hotel so there wasn’t much of a view, but we didn’t spend much time in the room so the terrace was just a luxury. This was our first time in Barcelona and we had the best hotel for two single women traveling abroad. They lock the doors at a certain time so you use your key to get in. The front desk is right there so they see everyone coming and going; very safe. I would definitely stay here again.

Die Wände zu dünn, man konnte alles ganz genau verstehen was der Zimmernachbarn erzählt. Frühstücksbuffet war nichts besonderes, am letzten Tag gab es nicht einmal glutenfreies Brot weil es alle war :(. Zusammengefasst würde ich nicht nochmal dorthin.
