We (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed at the Rivoli Ramblas for 5 nights in April 2004. The hotel has a very nice interior design, friendly staff, a good breakfast buffet, and the location is simply superb. I would definitely stay there again on my next visit to Barcelona. |

The location is great and so are the pubic areas but, for the single traveler consigned to the 6th floor, it was a disapointing experience.
Considering the temperatures experienced in Spain you may think that full air conditioning was essential in a 4* hotel but in the case of the Ramblas you either had heating or cooling. When I was there (despite it being quite warm) the heating was on. Being on the 6th floor all the heat rose to my room and I found it uncomfortably warm.
The first room was something of a shoebox overlooking a covered courtyard and I could not stand being there for more than 5 mins. So I asked for a move and got a lighter room facing on to the Ramblas (although I couldn't actually see it). This meant it was noisier but still very warm.
I feel that the Hotel was very poor value and I would not stay there again. |

Just back from a cruise on Brilliance of the Seas. We stayed at the Rivioli Ramblas a four star hotel just south of Pl. Catalunya one night pre-cruise and three nights post. The rooms we had were excellent, very quite, good mattress, great air conditioning, huge bath room with tub, in-room safe and all very modern. The staff was wonderful. Barcelona is fabulous. Enjoy. |

My husband and I stayed here last year - and loved it. Its location is the best - you are close to everything. And late at night - you can just walk outside your hotel and see all the action. The staff was also very friendly and helpful - and they spoke english. I would highly recommend this 4 star hotel. |

I'll keep it concise.
We stayed here in mid Jan 2004. Great location - central to everything.
Well equipped clean rooms, helpful friendly staff. Standard is comparable to a good 3* in the UK (e.g Holiday Inn, i.e smart & clean but not quite the Hilton or Marriott.
Only disappointment was that we booked a double room but got a twin?!?!
(beds pushed together). Complained but hotel was full so didn't get moved.
All things considered I would stay here again. |

We stayed at the Rivoli Ramblas September 18-22, 2003. We found the location ideal and the hotel clean and friendly. We were upgraded to a superior room on the 6th floor facing the back, which had a large balcony with views of half the city. The superior room had a bedroom and separate living room. Breakfast was included in our rate and was great - a large selection of hot and cold foods and a gorgeous outdoor garden deck to eat it in. The staff was friendly and helpful, everything was very clean. Although nothing stands out as special about the hotel, a good clean room, good location, and friendly staff is all I need! |

Lucky enough to be upgraded to suite on 6th floor. Great room - lounge, kingsize bedroom & bathroom with jacuzzi bath. Soundproofed. Lovely balcony overlooking La Rambla. Even without the upgrade though, an excellent hotel. Location on La Rambla couldn't be better and the hotel was very clean with good facilities. Didn't eat in - only because so many great restaurants to choose from. Highly recommend Els Quatro Gats (4 cats) where Picasso used to hang out & Los Caracoles on Escudellers - both very atmospheric and superb food, and both short walk away. Very cheap supermarket across the road to buy bottled water etc. Enjoy your visit. |

I had emailed ahead to warn them we wouldn't arrive till about 11.30 p.m. No problem, they replied. We checked in and were told of the upgrade. Junior Suite (Rm 123) has to be the best room in the hotel - in the 'old' part with a glassed in little balcony overlooking the Ramblas. Big doors slid across to shut out light and all noise.
Terrific bathroom, spotlessly clean, endless delight in sitting and watching the Ramblas in action!! We didn't eat in the hotel at all ...
took everyone's advice and went out to find food.
I booked this hotel thanks to all the positive reviews. And you were all right - it's excellent. |
