What guests think

Across these reviews, Hotel Cantón is praised for its central, walkable location near La Rambla and the port, generally clean rooms, and friendly staff, while recurring drawbacks include hard beds, small or splashy showers, and thin walls.

Some guests found the narrow side street hard for taxis to access and felt the immediate area could seem sketchy or dirty at times. Rooms are simple or recently updated with handy extras like a fridge and kettle, though AC can be weak and TVs small in some. Facilities are basic with a small elevator and limited accessibility; the low-cost breakfast offers convenience but quality varies. Expect a straightforward, good-value base in a prime spot.

Les gens de la réception sont très disponible et je les remercie pour m'avoir permis de louer une nuit de plus à un tarif plus que raisonnable. Merci Hôtel super bien situé vers les ramblas, bus et metro pas loin Top le parking juste en face. Je reviendrai...

We had a great stay at Hotel Cantón in Barcelona. The hotel is very central and short way to bus/metro if needed and under 5min walk to La Rambla. There are plenty of restaurants and cafe's around. The hotel is located in a quiet street, and our stay and sleep was very comfortable and peaceful. There is an elevator and simple breakfast is available. This is definitely more that 1* Hotel. The staff was very polite and helpful. Reception is open 24h. The room contained air condition, tv, fridge, safe, kettle and cups incl tea/coffee supplies, bottle of water, extra blankets, hair dryer and shampoo/shower gel. The cleaning was good and was done daily. Our room smelled fresh and clean. Beds and towels were changed frequently. There were no bugs or insects in the hotel or our room. The room we got 405 was very spacious and had plenty of space for our luggage. We were very happy with our stay and if I'd ever travel to Barcelona again this will definitively be my first choice to stay. Definitely huge value for money and perfect place to stay when travelling to a big city.

My small Single Room had One comfortable Twin Bed. The Room was Clean & Comfortable. The bathroom was spacious - and had a nice shower with a window. I stayed 3 nights before going on a Cruise. Location was perfect- VERY close to Drasannes Metro Station, the Ramblas, and Placa Reale. 6 Euro Breakfast was excellent - and a great Convenience. In-Room Safe was Great. 24-Hour Front Desk allowed for Late Check-in, and Security. The Area is fine - perfectly safe. The Gothic Quarter is old, and has well-lit narrow streets with lots of Graffiti. The Hotel is half a block off the Ramblas, and just 2 blocks down one street off a corner of Placa Reale. The Elevator is small and modern - typical of the many older buildings in Barcelona. It works just fine. I would definitely stay at Hotel El Canton again.

Entrance is down a side street that looks a bit sketchy at first glance, but is really not. Taxi wouldn't even go down the street to pick us up. Selected hotel because it has elevator and requested handicap accessible bathroom. Hotel did respond that accessible bathroom was not available but then put us in THE ONLY ROOM on the entire floor that has a step to get into the room, at the end of a very twisted hallway, despite knowing that a wheelchair was involved. The clearance between the wall in front of the elevator and elevator door made maneuvering a wheelchair very difficult. There is a ramp from front door, but they have furniture positioned at the bottom of the ramp, making it near impossible to get around. And the door itself does not open completely nor by itself, so a second person is required to even get in/out the door. For non-handicapped people, it is a good option, but a wheelchair bound person should be very wary.

Small and little Hotel. Very nice workers there. However the room took very long to heat up and there was mold in the shower what made us sick. The blankets were very thin. Due to this we had to leave early and we said that we are travelling home early. The only respons was "OK". In addition to that was the room overpriced.

I stayed at the Hotel Canton for an extended time (12 days) so I felt I got to know the facility very well. My room was modern in all respects. And both my room and the hotel were spotlessly clean. The entire staff at the desk were friendly and helpful. When I checked in, I requested a room with lots of light above all else. The room I got (207) had two glass french doors leading out to a generously sized balcony (approx. 3 by 12 feet) which I would use in late afternoons for reading. The shower was the best I've experienced, with outstanding water pressure. It was a pleasure! The hotel has several convenience stores very close by. Overall, I was very pleased with my choice and would stay there again.

Property is in a really great location, at the doorstep of rambla and not far at all from the Port. A little disappointed with the rooms, noticed ants crawling around quite a few places and there didn't seem to be much air ventilation. Aside from that, hotel was fairly okay for the location it was in.

Situated in the gothic neighborhood of Barcelona, the hotel is near everything. The room is basic, with two single beds put together to make a twin bed. The mattress was quite hard. There was a mini refrigerator and a tea kettle in the room. In addition, there was air conditioning that never seemed to get very cold. Also note most taxis would not pick up or drop off due to the location on the tiny street. However, it was very close to the Main Street. I didn’t try the breakfast as there were coffee shops nearby.

Hotel is located fairly close to a main avenue that has lots of shopping as well as easy, walkable access to major monuments. The room was nice and staff were very helpful during our stay. Unfortunately the walls are quite thin so if you have loud and uncaring neighbors like we had, you will probably be kept up at night.

First time ever in a 1 star hotel. But this place deserved its high review. First things first…forst impressions sucks. On the outside place looks like a 1 star hotel. Location is really good. Easy walk to Ramblas and gothic quarter. But it’s just outside of both places. There is a super market a few minutes away. Drassanes Metro is also a 3/4 minutes away. Room was quite big and really clean. Beds doesn’t look great, but was pretty comfortable. Bathroom has a bidet and the shower had great water pressure and good temperature. Downsides to hotel room. The AC didn’t work without the hotel key. And the ac cooled really really slow. Could be problematic in the heat of summer. Very small TV. But that’s not what we want to do there anyway. Hotel is maybe a 1 star, but it’s more like a 3 star.

Property was not bad for 3 stars. Guests were slightly noisy. Biggest issue was the front desk assigned someone else to our room when we were inside and when napping someone opened the door startling us and confusing everyone. The other guest burst into tears. We all ended up at the desk downstairs where the attendant shrugged and said “sorry”. Doesn’t inspire confidence in the hotel security.
