We LOVED Grand Hotel Central! Everything was faultless and the staff were always ready to help with anything at all. Our room was incredible and having two hours at the rooftop pool every afternoon with drinks available was a wonderful bonus. The hotel is positioned so close to the entrance of the old town and all the restaurants and bars. It was perfect in every way!

Nice room, was offered an upgrade to junior suite.
Very poor menu at the only available restaurant. Very busy street with works in progress that created heavy traffic and noise.

The location is great, close by to many places and a Metro station that allows you to explore the city easily. There are lots of restaurants nearby and everything you need is within walking distance. The staff were amazing, from our check-in to check-out everyone we encountered was wonderful, really helpful and friendly.
The Italian restaurant's food choice was poor and for that reason was always empty. The room service menu was also poor, you'd expect basics such as fries and a burger but it did not seem well thought through.

Small, and not that comfortable

A lovely hotel in a very convenient location. The staff, the facilities were very good. I loved the rooftop pool and the latte they served.
One morning we arrived 15 mins before breakfast closing. They already packed up the food and they started a team meeting in the middle of the breakfast area where some other people were still having breakfast. I think it was unprofessional and not respectful.
The wifi was not working well.

Good staff, location and quality of rooms and hotel. Facilities are good.
We had to move rooms 2 times in 3 nights stay. The metro is noisy specially during the night if you are on the lower floors. This we did not expect in a 5 start hotel.

The staff were so friendly and helpful from the minute I arrived. The bed and linen was some of the best I’ve experienced and had a wonderful nights sleep.

Absolutely great stay in this hotel! Extremely helpful and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family. The staff did everything they could to help us.
One morning, I was coming back from the gym and the lady behind the counter even jumped from her counter to the backroom to give me an extra bottle of water. Unseen helpful staff. Thanks for the great stay everybody!

Perfect location - staff superb and very helpful.
One tiny point was that the bedrooms didn’t have windows to open, but there was sufficient air con when the keycard was in place.

Best location and great staff, very welcoming and helpful with all our questions. Nice bar with good service. Roof top bar has the most wondeful view over the city. Beautiful part of Barcelona, with many restaurants and good shopping apart from all the cultural values.

Thanks to reception and the skybar team( Oliver thanks for hosting us) - much appreciate your kind and attentive work
The rooftop bar is perfekt
Claiming to be a 5star 'Grand' Hotel raises some expectations.
Among them is not - listening to the rumbling of the metro trains from underneath the building ( room on the 2nd floor) having to enforce the repair of the sliding glass door to the bathroom so it actually is possible to close it, the reconnection of the TV and the very audible"operation" of the sewer pipe from above somewhere behind the wall near the entrance to the room
The photos on booking do not give the correct impression of the rooms - someone at reception told me i am wrong to expect to see that armchair on the photo of the room i booked - the chair was important because it indicated space that is not there . The rooms are much darker than the photos might indicate because the adjacent building is 3-4 m away only
I wish i had seen on the photos those glass doors between bedroom and bathroom - i would have saved myself that disappointment . glass doors are ok as separation if one travels alone. Otherwise they are an inconvenience
