The hype
Travelers obsess over the design, the coffee, and the rooftop vibe, but often wish the rooms were slightly larger for the price.
Casa Bonay
$200-350/ νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want a Brooklyn-cool vibe in the heart of Barcelona where the lobby is a destination, not just a waiting room.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- The lobby (Libertine) is a legitimate local hangout, not a sad hotel bar
- Satan's Coffee Corner in the building serves some of the city's best espresso
- Rooftop BBQ and tapas at Chiringuito feel like a private house party
Γρήγορη Ματιά: It's cooler than it is luxurious—you're paying for the vibe, the crowd, and the design, not for silence or white-glove service.
Αξιολόγηση από @samanthaweiss: I spent my evenings hanging out in this lobby and it's honestly the coolest vibe in Barcelona. The rooftop was the perfect escape from the city heat, and the whole place just feels effortlessly chic. Definitely my favorite spot in Eixample.

Reality check
Multiple guests noted that while the vibe is 10/10, the street-facing rooms suffer from noticeable traffic noise, and the 'pool' is more of a plunge tub.
- You care more about having a cool natural wine bar downstairs than a massive bathtub
- You want to work remotely from a lobby that feels like a members' club
- You appreciate original 19th-century mosaic floors and high ceilings

“I am a light sleeper and would love to request a room facing the interior courtyard (Courtyard View) to avoid the Gran Via street noise. A room with original mosaic floors would be a huge plus.”
Συχνές ερωτήσεις & Κρυμμένες συμβουλές
Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is there a swimming pool?
No. There is a rooftop 'wellness space' (Termas Bonay) with a small dip pool/ofuro, sauna, and ice bath, but it's not for swimming laps and often requires a reservation.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It's a la carte or buffet at Libertine, costing around €23. Locals love Satan's Coffee Corner in the lobby for a cheaper, quicker caffeine fix.
Is it noisy?
Yes, if you face the street. Gran Via is a busy 6-lane road. Courtyard rooms are very quiet.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it's very pet-friendly. They even provide dog beds and bowls for a nightly fee (~€25).
How is the Wi-Fi?
Excellent. The lobby is a popular co-working spot for locals, so the connection is fast and reliable throughout.
Is there parking?
No on-site garage. You'll have to use a nearby public parking garage (approx €28/day).
Εσωτερικές Συμβουλές
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast buffet at least once and grab a flat white and pastry from Satan's Coffee Corner right in the building.
- ✨
The 'Termas' rooftop spa can be booked privately for small groups—a total power move for a sunset soak.
- ✨
Libertine (the lobby bar) transforms into a moody cocktail lounge with DJs on weekends; great for a nightcap without leaving the building.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'pool' is basically a glorified hot tub (but cold) and sauna circuit, not a pool.
💡The floors are original 19th-century hydraulic tiles—beautiful but cold on bare feet (bring slippers).
💡Rooms come with MUBI streaming service included, so you can watch arthouse cinema in bed.
💡There is a hidden 'Passage' room category that has no view but is dead silent and cheaper.
💡The minibar is stocked with local Catalan products (like specialized chips and vermouth) that are actually worth eating.
