AC Hotel Irla

"The lobby was nice and inviting. The location is a short walk to the bus stops on Pl. Francesc Macia. The area around has good shops and restaurants. The hotel itself is small, less than 40 rooms, and there is no driveway for drop offs as it is on a busy street. The room we had was in the second floor facing the street with a restaurant across it. It was noisy until 3am and if you are a light sleeper, this is an issue. The room was clean enough but had a strong perfumey smell to it. We had to crack open the window to let it cycle through. Housekeeping was good and prompt. We did not opt in to the breakfast buffet as there are a few pastry shops and Mercat Galvany close by."

"Do not do business with this hotel"

"A small hotel just 2-3 mts walk, 100m off of the Diagonal….and thus much better value than other brands 15 mts closer to Sagreda Familia, La Rambla etc…..from the airport 30 mts and €35 bzy taxi The rooms are quite small, but you are out most of the day anyway that should not be a deal breaker unless you need the space! The beds are however comfortable, rooms are clean, the shower is powerful and hot…essentially all you need. If you need fitness you may prefer to run down the diagonal, the fitness centre here is cozy, a few of typical machines but a bit sterile…not really a great place to work up a sweat….(no sign of the advertised turkish bath or sauna on the website either) Breakfast at €18 is expensive if you only want a coffee and croissant, better to goto a local coffee….saying that if you want a lot of food the choice is good, omelettes made fresh and then it is no more expensive than going local … All in all a reasonable hotel within a walking distance of most key sights and fairly priced…"
