Warum Gäste es lieben

9.0⭐1905 Bewertungen
  • The 'Cathedral View' rooms offer a literal front-row seat to Gothic architecture
  • Rooftop terrace 'L'Àtic' is one of the city's most famous sunset spots
  • Prime location in the Gothic Quarter, walkable to everything

Kurzfassung: You are paying for the view and the address; the rooms are solid but the real magic happens when you open the curtains.

Bewertet von @Infatuatedtravel: I splurged on the terrace room and it was the best decision of my trip. Having the Barcelona Cathedral right outside my window made me feel so connected to the city. The location is super walkable to the subway and food, plus the rooftop bar is awesome at night. Highly recommend!

Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten

The hype

Travelers are obsessed with the views and location, consistently rating it 9/10 for convenience.

Reality check

Soundproofing isn't perfect—hallway noise and street bustle can bleed into the rooms, especially on lower floors.

  • You live for a dramatic Instagram window shot
  • You want to walk out the door and be in the middle of the action
  • You prefer a classic, slightly formal hotel vibe over trendy boutiques

Vor der Buchung

Gut zu wissen

  • The hotel is in a pedestrian zone; taxis can drop you close, but you might walk the last 50 meters.
  • Breakfast is excellent but pricey (~€25-30); plenty of cheaper cafes are right outside.
  • The rebranding to 'Lamaro Hotel' is recent—signage might still be in transition.

Was Sie einpacken sollten

  • Earplugs (essential for plaza-facing rooms)
  • A good camera with a wide-angle lens for the room view
  • Walking shoes—the Gothic Quarter is cobblestone hell for heels

Zimmer-Genie

Beste Auswahl

  • Junior Suite with Cathedral View (worth the splurge for the terrace)
  • Superior Room with Cathedral View (high floor, 4th or 5th, for privacy from the plaza)

Zimmer, die Sie meiden sollten

  • Interior rooms if you want the view (you'll stare at a wall)
  • 1st or 2nd floor street-facing rooms if you are sensitive to crowd noise

“I am booking specifically for the view. Please assign a room on the 4th floor or higher facing the Cathedral. If a Cathedral view is not available, I would prefer a quiet interior room on a high floor.”

Insider-Tipps

    Skip the hotel breakfast one day and go to 'Granja M. Viader' (10 min walk) for churros and cacaolat.

  • ✨

    The spa has a 'water circuit' that is often empty during the day—great for a private soak.

5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren

  • 💡The elevators can be slow and tiny during peak check-out times.

  • 💡The 'Cathedral View' rooms sometimes have tourists pointing cameras *at* your balcony from the street.

  • 💡The rebrand to 'Lamaro' has confused some taxi drivers; show them the address (Avinguda Catedral 7).

  • 💡The AC is strong (rare for historic buildings in Barcelona), which is a huge plus in August.
