Nice stay with fun events

We stayed as a group at the Hotel Rec and had a great time! The rooms were as expected, very nice and comfortable. We really enjoyed the roof top lounge and bar. The nightly events were great, we did a beer tasting with good information on the local beer. Had a great time!

We had a great time at hotel rec. We did the make your own cocktail night which was a fun way to meet new people and have free drinks! Pool is small and cold but I think that’s pretty standard in Spain. Room was very clean and staff were very pleasant. Would reccomend to anyone

Location is great, bus and metro very close which can get you to the beach or anywhere else in Barcelona. Room was spacious, shower was big and beds were comfy. Only issue I had with the room is : 1 there is nowhere to put your clothes. There was a very tiny wardrobe to hang 3 dresses and one small shelf for some extra clothes but everything else we left either in the suitcase or on the one table that was available. 2 the room is in tiles so you will need slippers to walk around unless you don't mind it. The room has aircon. Shower and toilet are separated. Breakfast was ok ISH. Nothing special but it is fine for what it is. The Pool area is very small altho very lovely to enjoy the breakfast, for swimming or sunbathing is to small. Staff are super nice and helpful and attentive.

Excellent room. Lots of space. Very quiet. Nice small pool on rooftop. Staff were friendly. Close to metro and buslines. No fridge in room is probably the major gripe. However lots of shops nearby.
