Frommer's Review
Having one of Barcelona's most desirable locations, in the heart of Ciutat Vella, this little hotel opens onto the tree-shaded Plaça Sant Josep Oriol, where cafes huddle around the Gothic medieval church of Santa María del Pi. The five-floor hotel has been upgraded and improved in recent years, with the installation of an elevator, though the over-bright general lighting dissipates the charm for some. Much of the original architectural charm remains, and though the guest rooms are somewhat austere, they are comfortable and equipped with bathrooms with tub/shower combinations. The quieter units are at the top and 5 of the accommodations have private terraces, while 26 have small balconies. Under separate management, Bar del Pi, on the ground floor, is a favorite of artists and students who live nearby.
