Sir Victor

"Great location, perfect for shopping, transportation, Gaudi, etc. The building’s modern architecture is striking and interesting, as is the lobby, lounge and bar area on the ground floor. Service staff was young, friendly and helpful. A very modern, stylish, hip vibe generally. Upstairs, however, the hotel looks worn and scuffed up, from the dirty carpet in the corridors to the scuffed paint and scratched and worn wood flooring everywhere. The Sir Boutique room, facing the street, was stylish and well lit, but with an awkward layout with toilet and bidet (no sink) in a little room immediately next to the entrance, and the rest of the bathroom (tub/shower combination with a deep tub to step over) on the opposite side of the room. 🤷🏻‍♂️ And possibly the worst, thinnest bath towels I’ve ever had in a good hotel. They seemed ancient. The bed, thankfully, was extremely comfortable. The steakhouse on the ground floor is attractive and enjoyable. I wanted to like this hotel more. Overall a solid 4 stars for the location, design and public spaces and restaurant but 2 stars for the rooms and hallways, which need a refresh. It would be hard to recommend this hotel in a city with so many alternatives."

"Chic, ultra-contemporary well-maintained hotel in a great location near all the high-end chain and boutique shopping. The room was beautiful, very modern, with a comfortable bed and a large separate shower. One small disappointment was noticing that guests checking in after us were offered a complimentary glass of cava, which wasn’t offered to us. Breakfast itself was very good — a nice buffet plus made-to-order options with local specialties and cava. However, there was an awkward and uncomfortable exchange on our arrival day when we went to breakfast and were told it would be €39 per person. At almost all upscale hotels in the U.S., breakfast is included on the day of check-in, so this may have been a cultural misunderstanding, but as guests it didn’t feel great. Overall, a beautiful place to stay in an excellent location, though customer service could use a bit of refinement."

"I’m really sad for having to write this review. I had really high hopes for this hotel but turns out I was quite wrong. To begin with, the staff is not what I expected for a 5 star hotel. They are a bunch of unprofessional people that even made fun of other customers in front of me. Following with the rooms, they really REALLY need maintenance (see the pictures) not only some furniture were missing but some of it looked dangerous (like the hanging cables and the loose light switches). Also unhygienic with some really strange stains on the rug. Finally, be aware they are running some sort of a club in the ground floor, which is not very pleasant having to enter the hotel with crazy loud music. All in all, spend your money somewhere else, it is not worth it here."
