Great staff, great hotel in general (atmosphere, style, offering at bar incl. rooftop, breakfast, location). It was my third stay and more will follow. Only slight improvement: More storage space for clothes in the room.
We had a very nice stay at the hotel. It is very clean and personel is very kind. The breakfast was excellent and the lobby a good place to stay for a longer time.
We were very pleased with our recent stays at Motel One. Location across from the park, access to Arc de Trionf transport hub as well as proximity to El Born can't be beat. Breakfast buffet was excellent and great value. Rooms were functional and always cleaned daily. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We plan on returning to Barcelona soon and will make our base at Motel one without hesitation.
Hotel is in a great location, easy to get around the city by foot and/or metro without being in the middle of the tourist areas. I especially loved being right next to the park, a beautiful and peaceful area to take in history and beauty.
I really enjoyed the short time I spent at the hotel. The location is great and the room was clean with all necessary amenities. Unfortunately, due to the strikes in Italy our flight was cancelled and rescheduled for the next day so our time there was limited. However, I was fortunate that I reserved the room as refundable and was able to cancel the 2 night reservation last minute and make a reservation for 1 night. The staff was very helpful in solving my problem. I will definitely be returning to stay longer. Also, the fireplace screen was a lovely touch! Thank you!
Everything was super smooth and easy, bed was comfortable and everything was clean.
Friendly staff. Peaceful vibe.
There was no water for guests other than that every thing was great
An excellent stay in Motel One in Barcelona. The room was nice and quiet, although quite small. Very good breakfast and a nice lobby.
Clean and nice looking, affordable price at this location.
The staff were excellent and always ready to help. Our room was The One and we were surprised that it was so small compared with The One room that we had just left in Madrid - Plaza de España. One of the shelves was unreachable. When I use an hotel chain in UK, every room is similar. The breakfasts in Barcelona did not have the variety available in Madrid, yet the price was the same.
Simple room, comfy bed, breakfast was ok. Nice bar area.
All good
Room was a little small and no in room tea/coffee facilities or fridge.
Very friendly & efficient
The only comment I can make is about the unsecured WiFi connection. As a cybersecurity professional, I would recommend this to be reviewed.
A beautiful place to stay in beautiful city. Very well located . 10 min walk to arc de triomf. 20 minutes to get to city center on foot. And bang in front of a pretty park . The rooms are modern and minimal . Not much space for clothes ( at least in my room.) But very bright and with a large walk in shower. The staff are so helpful and polite and really go out of their way to make your stay a lovely experience. It was my second visit to Barcelona and definitely not my last ..next time I m definitely staying here again Oh and the breakfast is amazing!
Perfect location, room was great and staff were friendly. We did notice a smell when we first came into the room or if we had the window closed, but it was great besides that.
Super quickly exchanged the large blanket with 2 single blankets. Outstanding breakfast. Highly impressive gin selection. And an excellent hotel location. We were extremely satisfied with our stay!
As always very nice stay in Barcelona. Super friendly staff, great breakfast, which started earlier for the Barcelona Marathon runners at the day of the race. Will come back in summer.
Everything was great but consider installing a bidet in the bathroom
Great location—close to the metro and train station. A beautiful park, a local shop, and restaurants are right in front. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and umbrellas are available to borrow at reception. Superb tar race with a beautiful view. Rooms clean and well designed.
We absolutely loved our stay at Motel One! Staff were very friendly and helpful and we felt welcome right from the start. Hotel is beautifully designed with lots of comfortable common areas to relax or work in, and an amazing rooftop terrace. Room was clean and comfortable with an incredible view and they have a parking garage which provided ease of mind with our car. It was also important for us that it was dog-friendly. We would definitely recommend Motel One Barcelona and would stay here again!
Awesome service, supported a lot! Clean, nice lobby and good breakfast. May have a bit more choice at the breakfast
Excellent location, clean and well-decorated hotel. Nice terrace and bar. Very good breakfast, but no hot options. The breakfast lady was very helpful and always remembered the room. Rooms are small but functional. Perfect for exploring Barcelona!
Wunderbares Stadthotel. Stylisch, modern in toller Lage.
Great experience, great hotel and also great and friendly stuff!
Perfect location and very professional service from the staff. Recommended for choosing accommodation if you are planning a stay in Barcelona.
Improve the good work.
Nice hotel, great location. We loved the rooftop terrace and the ground-floor terrace and bar. Unfortunately, there is no restaurant. The room was clean and had a nice design, but it was surprisingly small—at least a body lotion would be great in the bathroom.
Excellent location. Rooms and public areas very clean, tidy and nicely decorated. Bar area nice ambience. Breakfast wonderful but no hot options. No tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms. Lovely view over the park. Nice roof terrace and outdoor areas. Has everything you need for a comfortable weekend exploring Barcelona.
Great location, very nice staff, rooms are small but very functional and clean. very good breakfast
Even the larger rooms are tiny and without a writing table or drawers. The breakfast is at best mediocre. The bar is pleasant and the guys tending the bar are pleasant enough, but bartenders who don't know that Jack Daniels is a bourbon are not bartenders. The bottom line is that this was my third and final stay at Motel One.
Had a great stay at the hotel. All staff were friendly and very helpful. Good selection of food for breakfast. Good location... Will be back.
Wonderful place to be!
Good points. Staff exceptionally responsive and attentive. Bedroom and bathroom small but very well appointed and designed. Bed very comfortable. Shower easy to use. Not so good points. Bedroom mirror although long(very good) had a shelf right across it at face/head height! Bar area seats extremely uncomfortable- too deep so no back support and far too low for us elderly - when sitting knees were above hip height and therefore difficult to use.
The hotel was well located with good access to local transport.
Great hotel in a good location in Barcelona. One big negative: our original booking was for two nights. when booking an extra (3rd) night we were confronted with additional costs as if we were just staying for one night (room and parking). I would strongly recommend to review your terms and conditions !!
Best price and quality combination. Beautiful interior, friendly service.. special thank you for the attention to details designing the comfort in the room (the first hotel with very good blow dryer… omg … you saved my vacation photos)
We love the lobby experience, the friendly staff, the breakfast, the ambiance, the furniture, the creativity, the comfort and affordability of it all. We now specifically look for staying with Motel One instead of choosing other hotel brands during our Europe trips.
Great Hotel with friendly staff. It was a pleasure being a guest at Motel One Barcelona. See you next year, that’s for sure.
I would rate you ten, if it wasn't for breakfast. There wasn't much to choose from and the coffee wasn't good.
Greatest hotel. Staff is amazing, price is right, location is great and their main floor vibe is fantastic. Modern yet comfortable. Room are a bit tiny but it has everything you need except a closet yet they have hanging space. Definitely get a room looking towards the park. I would book this again.
Clean, comfortable rooms. Friendly staff. Convenient bar / lounge area
Just
Perfect
Excellent overall!
Friendly staff. The room I got was small but it was clean which to me is important. Mayber there should be to smaller chairs in the room instead of one big.
Great hotel, staff and location. Rooms very good
A nice modern hotel. What would have made it a fabulous hotel would be to have coffee/tea-making facilities in the bedroom, and a small restaurant offering simple meals in the evening. A few more toiletries in the bathroom (make-up remover pads, shower cap, etc) would have been useful, too. I didn’t like the room I had been allocated - absolutely no view whatsoever - and was given a room at the front of the hotel with a view of the park (and a distant view of the sea) which made my stay more pleasant. The breakfast was adequate, but I was surprised that we weren’t offered anything hot - like scrambled eggs, for example.

Naturally Stylish
The grass is greener - at our Motel One Barcelona-Ciutadella!
Discover Barcelona afresh – natural, local and green
At our Motel One Barcelona-Ciutadella, we combine typical Spanish architecture with locally manufactured designer furniture and the natural influences of the surrounding flora and fauna. The result is enough to make you forget you just came to stay the night! From the reception with its classic cement tiles to the comfy chairs by Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola and the carpets by the local company Nanimarquina, the hotel is full of inspiration from the nature of the nearby park. Pendant lights by Bocci are reminiscent of a bunch of flowers, the natural Spanish stone floor adds a rustic touch and a large outdoor area with lounge invites you to sit back and relax.
Our rooms are also full of comfort and life: at the head of the box-spring beds are designs by the young illustrator Lara Costafreda that play with the themes of plants, nature and the jungle.
While the Motel One Barcelona-Ciutadella might invite you to kick back and unwind, there’s a lot to discover in the city itself as well. Our affordable design hotel is not only near to the Ciutadella park, where you can take a leisurely stroll, but also close to attractions such as the Sagrada Familia, Barcelona Cathedral, the lively La Rambla street and the Plaça de Catalunya in the city centre. ¡Benvinguts a Barcelona!
