Frommer's Review
The fabulously ornate facade of this La Rambla hotel dates back 200 years to the days when it was an opulent private home and the headquarters of the Royal Artistic Circle of Barcelona. Public areas include some of the building's original accessories, with carved doors, a baronial fireplace, and crystal chandeliers. In the 1930s, it was transformed into the comfortably unpretentious hotel you'll find today. It offers a level of comfort superior to that of most competitors. Each of the midsize guest rooms is smartly decorated, with extras that make all the difference, such as adjustable beds, large marble bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs, bathrobes, and slippers. The service is exemplary and nothing is too much trouble, whether you want to book a winery excursion or simply park your car.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
