Everything

The staff were most helpful and friendly - special shout out to Pedro at the front desk. The breakfast was really nice with fresh fruit, pastries, eggs, coffee, fresh orange juice etc... The pool was refreshing as it was in the 30s during our stay. Can't fault Catalonia Rigoletto and would definitely stay again.

Food was good

The air conditioning was very poor in the rooms. We switched rooms and the room was still very hot, had to use our own mini fans to stay cool.

Went to see a Barcelona FC match, and it was walking distance.

Hotel restaurant closes too early. Managed to get food through delivery though

It was a great location very close to the train station

The room was pretty comfortable and clean. The breakfast was great. The location is very good, because busses and metro are walking distance.

Room space, staff attention, food

The previous evening I also had a room booked in this hotel via a business travel intermediary, and this went wrong (see What didn't you like). However, the staff were very helpful in providing us a room in an alternative hotel (part of the same chain), were very apologetic and arranged taxis between hotels, to the office, some drinks vouchers, free breakfast and ensured good rooms at the alternative hotel. What was a nice touch was that I also received a nice room and free breakfast when I returned to the Rigoletto the following evening. The room was very comfortable and had everything required for a business stay. The staff were very helpful. The location is perfect if working in the Les Corts area.

Not part of this Booking but related - the evening before this booking I was to stay at this hotel as a part of a business booking via another intermediary. We arrived to discover that the rooms we had booked several weeks before were no longer available and that we were booked into an alternative hotel some distance from the office. The hotel informed us that they had tried to contact us via the intermediary and via telephone in the preceding days. However, I had only one missed call from them which was on the day itself while already on the plane, and I did not receive the email message via the intermediary until 9pm on the 11th May, which was already more than a day after the event.
