5.0 / 10.0
Clean and spacious (for Europe) room, very helpful staff. Two things stood out for me in particular: 1) excellent adjustable shower pressure - better than almost any hotel I've stayed at, and better even than what I have at home; 2) electric tea kettle in the room - I can't tell you how many times during my past travels I have had to call housekeeping to beg for a kettle, and half of the time they would refuse it (either the shortage of kettles or "fire safety reasons," which is ridiculous as electric kettles all have an automatic turn-off switch). At DO by Sonder, upon check in there was both the coffee machine and a separate electric kettle in the room, the latter being useful for tea or instant coffee (which I prefer to machine brew).
Placa Reial can get quite noisy (and I was there on the Halloween night, so the partying was going on all night long). But the balcony doors were fairly good at keeping the noise out.
And if like me you are slow to roll out of bed in the morning, the prospect of several cafes waiting for you with warm croissants downstairs on the square is definitely motivating.

A lovely boutique hotel in a great location. Very friendly, helpful staff. The rooms were very comfortable and quiet with all the amenities that you required. To be able to look out of one’s bedroom window onto the Placa Reial was a pleasure. Great breakfast too. Would go back to this hotel for any future visits to Barcelona.

The hotel was in a great location. The staff was amazing. The room served it's purpose, but was very small for people traveling for 2 weeks with 4 suitcases.

The elevator was broken, and we were on the 3rd floor (what Americans call the 4th floor). But good news! We can use the tiny staff elevator. Only it broke as well. My wife has a bad knee, so our experience was really terrible.

The picture of the queen room is deceiving. The picture has been taken from outside the room to show it bigger than it is. I had to pay extra $50 to get better room to fit all our bags. This is not a five star hotel as it’s specified.
5.0 / 10.0
Lovedddd the high ceilings but please be aware they have a lot of entertainment in the square at all hours. It may not be ideal for a family with small children. Ideal for walking to all the spots and amazing customer service.

It’s a lovely, quaint hotel with very attentive and friendly staff. My only complaint was that they did not have decaf coffee pods.

A stylish hotel in a great area if it is your first time in Barcelona. Within walking distance to major attractions and public transit. Just be aware that it can get loud - we were there when Spain won the World Cup and could not sleep that night! The hotel did provide us with earplugs but they did not help much.

This is a nice hotel, but not worth the price in my opinion. You’re paying for the location, but it’s noisy and busy and on the plaza.

6.0 / 10.0
The room was nice. I booked the room with a private terrace and pool. While the terrace and room were kept clean the pool was not. It had pigeon poo all over the bottom. Requested it to be cleaned twice but it was not. We did not use the pool at all. Also the room was right outside of a rooftop bar and bathrooms so keep in mind it can be very loud at night right outside of the door. Ear plugs were provided thankfully. There is also no railing or grip tape on the stairs to the pool making it dangerously slippery. My wife actually slipped down the stairs because of this. I’m sure the other rooms are fine but for the cost this room wasn’t worth it.

High ceiling is the only plus.

The hotel and room was very nice, But if you are a light sleeper, do not stay here. There is a club in the same plaza as the hotel and they party all night long every night until 6 AM when the sun comes out.

Fantastic stay, we loved the room and the view of the plaza. There was just an issue with a flickering bathroom light, and a light not working outside the door to our room. Small issues with a great hotel.

I am not sure why this property is rated so high. They have very unorganized reception and the beds are very uncomfortable. I would not recommend this place.

This hotel was lovely. The staff can’t do enough to help, the rooms are lovely, with a large bathroom with tub and separate walk in shower. We didn’t eat here but the food looked great. Nice rooftop bar too. Would definitely recommend

A wonderful hotel right in the heart of the city and adjacent to a beautiful square. Easy access to metro system and most points of interest are walkable. Very close to the beautiful Gothic Quarter.
Professional and very friendly and helpful hotel staff. Wonderful daily breakfasts. I highly recommend the Do Placa!

We booked the suite with private plunge pool for 2 nights…. Couldn’t go in the private pool as it was full of bird feathers and bird poo. Spent a lot of money for this stay…
