Other than that go and enjoy!

We had a delightful 3-night stay at the Olivia Balmes Hotel with our 1.5-year-old, and it was perfect for us. The staff went above and beyond, setting up a comfortable crib for our daughter and gifting her a little stuffed bunny, which she absolutely loved. The hotel is very family-friendly, with high chairs readily available and plenty of kid-friendly amenities. Our room was incredibly spacious—even with the crib in, we had tons of space for our luggage and stroller. The hotel and room design is modern with a touch of elegance, and everything felt thoughtfully arranged. The location is superb, in a safe and trendy neighborhood, with everything within walking distance and easy access to transportation. The staff were consistently friendly and responsive, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with lots of options for both kids and adults. We loved the rooftop pool with its beautiful view, and the pool bar served the most delicious sangrias and really great food. Highly recommend the Olivia Balmes for small families—we’ll definitely stay here again when we return to Barcelona!

The staff were just wonderful, kind and helpful. They truly went the extra mile to make the stay memorable for my wife and I, and especially our 8 year old son. The hotel itself is very centrally located to shops, bakeries and the metro. Rooms are modern and sufficiently spacious. We had 3 suitcases with carry on and did not have issues with the space. This could easily be a 4.5 star hotel.

One of the best hotel experiences ! Staff were very attentive and friendly. Made us feel welcome at any interaction with them, no matter who the staff member was or what their role was. The hotel is fresh, clean and comfortable. Never felt used and tired.... as is often the case with other hotels. The room was very clean, each day. If I could give this hotel a higher rating than the usual 5 stars, I would. Highly recommend it !

Check-in gave us such a good impression - Xavi, Irene and Cris were wonderful, attentive and polite. Jaume from the restaurant was also attentive and thoughtful. Based on our interactions with these members of the staff, I would have given the hotel a 5 star across the board. Monica from breakfast, however, was extremely rude. When we came for breakfast, she immediately said we had to move (didn't ask us, told us) and insinuated that we didn't know it was 20 euro each (which we knew and had no problem with). Then, she and the guy in the suit (didn't catch his name) welcomed other guests with additional breakfast options we were not given (omelette and other kitchen offerings). On this interaction alone, I would have given a 2 but I gave a 4 because the other members of the staff were exceptional from start to finish.
