We had booked the Silken Diagonal but after reading reviews on this site, and others, changed to the Casanova. We were really pleased with the hotel. The staff were very helpful and the location was perfect.

Casanova is a modern boutique hotel and the location is within walking distance to Las Ramblas and Plaza de Catalunya, so it's very central to anything you might need. The area around the hotel offers a good selection of bars and restaurants and two subway stations are nearby.

Breakfast offered a wide variety of choices, so something for everyone. As for the rooms, they were well presented, comfortable and the air conditioning was great.

I'd recommend this hotel to everyone and my daughter is already planning a return trip with her friends.

Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights & I thought it was wonderful. The rooms were clean & very modern. The reception was very helpful & spoke many languages. Many people have written the rooms were loud, I didn't hear any noise at all & I had a room with a balcony. Excellent location, 5-10 walking minutes from Las Ramblas in addition to the metro & bus lines. The breakfast was also very pleasant, nothing fancy but it was fresh & the staff always ensured there was plenty of food. I will definetely stay at this hotel.

Great location. nice and central within easy 10 min walk to Pl Catalunya. Clean hotel, friendly staff. Good breakfast. We had one of their evening menus for 35 euro/pp. It included water, cocktail and bottle of wine plus good food. My only gripe was poor lighting in bathroom and poor drainage of bathroom sink.Overall strongly recommend this place.

I spent 11 nights in this great hotel. Staff were freindly, polite and helpful. I liked the location of the hotel, about 10-15 min walk to La Rambla Street. Bus and Metro station are at a walking distance. Plenty of coffeeshops, fast food resturants and other resturants are nearby. Many dress shops are in your way to La Rambla. One negative point is that rooms are noisy. However, It is a woderful hotel. I will not hesitate to visit it again.

“Hip! Why need a replacement?”

Outstanding hotel in a great location. I prefer staying slightly away from Las Ramblas and this hotel is just about 5-10 minutes walk away. the restaurant is excellent - I know there have been some patchy reviews on this, but the general standard of food is top notch - the service is casual, which fits the feel of the hotel.

Would recommend to everyone.
