A 5 star hotel with 5 star service
Newly decorated hotel and rooms
A tasteful and very classy hotel
We had a corner suite with 2 balconies and views, not to be believed
It felt like an apt
(Even the bathroom was finely decorated-great towels, linens on beds and stunning curtains in room)
Perfect location
Staff was amazing and very friendly
Luis was our manager and host at the front desk- he was of great help to all our travels about town and other cities
His personality made it charming
This hotel was ideally located to everything in Barcelona
In the Gothic Quarter- the best location
It had a 1920-1940's feel to the hotel
It's housed in a Historical building
Think Casablanca(the movie)
Palm trees overlooking the courtyard with Gaudi's lamp posts
Breakfast was a feast with everything you could ask for
We had room service and felt like royalty
You can have breakfast or lunch at their outdoor café but dinner on the rooftop at night was romantic
They have a restaurant below street level,was so tastefully decorated
Service was impeccable
The family who owns the hotel owns a cheese company,serves their specialty cheeses (cheese plates that are a foodies dream) for breakfast, lunch or dinner
Fabulous menu
Iberian ham is on their menu, as is paella
Delicious
Breakfast was included with our hotel room but we ate some late lunches and several dinners there
Stayed 7 nights
We would go back again and again
Great attention to detail
A welcoming drink
Fruit delivered to the room
Breakfast in the room in desired
Great food
Complimentary mini-bar
Well furnished room
Recessed floor lighting
High ceilings with exposed beams
Comfortable bed and pillows
Wonderful shower
So, what's the catch
Noise from the Placa Reial
We were prepared with ear plugs, but this was not sufficient
The Hotel DO is a beautiful hotel
The lobby at first seems quite underwhelming, but then you realize the hotel has a lot more to offer than a lobby
The room was so beautiful
Straight out of a movie with the curtains flowing in the wind
Juliette balcony and amazing bathroom
Just incredible
The restaurant was also fabulous with an incredible breakfast
Usually I don't think the hotel breakfast is worth the money, but here, it definitely was
The obvious downside is that it can get loud at night
I had jet lag so I opened the window around 4AM, and no joke, there were about 1,000 people sitting in the plaza below
Drinking and having a good time
Which is great for them, but if that's not something you want in a hotel, then keep that in mind
Hotel is in perfect location edge of gothic quarter where we walked for hours exploring the maze of small shops, bars and restaurants
The Placa  is surrounded by restaurants filled w people out eating and drinking until late
We stayed 1 night after a cruise,and wish we had stayed 3 nights
The Hotel DO is beautiful, staff very gracious
We loved our high ceiling room with shuttered balcony
Perfect spot and wonderful service
The food was amazing as well
The Do hotel was enjoyable and comfortable
The service was particularly good and the staff was very welcoming
The breakfasts in the hotel restaurant we to die for, with excellent croissants, chocolate filled croissants,
, and a broad selection of dishes from the breakfast menu for a hearty and delicious breakfast
For example fresh berries were available every day
Our fiends loved the eggs Benedict
We tried that same restaurant for lunch and dinner (once for each), and those meals did not compare well to the breakfasts or to other restaurants suggested by the staff of the restaurants (the other restaurants we excellent)
Barcelona is a very interesting city with lots to see and great food
However, Las Rambla, which is close to the Do is full of thieves and pickpockets
Within two hours of checking into the Do, we had our ATM card stolen (with pin) while we were being "helped" by a friendly handsome fellow getting some Euros from the machine
Don't ask how this happened (very skilled con-man), but be very careful on Las Rambla
We were fortunate to have found this little gem of a hotel
Just off Las Ramblas and a lively square but not noisy at all
Booked one of the top floor suites with a balcony and I highly recommend it
Beautiful hotel, wonderful staff and delicious food
I'll definitely stay here again
What a wonderful small hotel in a great location
We could not recommend it more
The room is very comfortable, clean, and looked out onto the Placa Reial
The square is beautiful, large, very active, but when you close your windows you barely hear a sound
The location is also walkable to almost everything you'd like to see in Barcelona
The staff could not be more welcoming and helpful
The free breakfast on the square is a wonderful experience
We could not recommend this boutique hotel more highly
Most amazing hotel i have been in my whole life
Incredible service
Felt like being in our when private villa
can't wait to go back again
Fantastic
Gorgeous room, wonderful staff, great food
Breakfast was anything and everything we wanted with no restrictions
We loved our own private pool on our balcony overlooking the Plaza
Beautiful boutique hotel with lovely surroundings and wonderful service
Arthur in reception was helpful, professional & went above and beyond
Olga brought us our breakfast with a smile and promptly
The bartenders and front desk staff were accommodating and friendly
Our room was well appointed and spacious
This is a beautiful boutique hotel and has great staff and wonderful amenities
The only downside is the outside noise on the square that keeps up all night
Great service, breakfast & onion bread was very good
Our complimentary treats & refreshments were much appreciated
Loved everything about your hotel
The breakfast in the morning was the crowning amenity
Awesome stay at a great little hotels with the best vibe in Barcelona loved every second
Very nice boutique hotel in the center of Barcelona
Walking distance from basically everything that you will want to visit
We were very happy with the hotel quality
The staff were extra helpful and tried to make us feel home
The breakfast was also very good
The only problem was with the slow Wi-Fi and this is the reason we give it 4 stars and not 5
It was actually so slow that it was practically unusable
We had to go to the local Starbucks every evening to browse the Internet and plan our activities for the next day (places to visit, reservations, etc
It would be great if we could do that from our room
Checked in late coming from Paris
We received a warm welcome with the staff giving attention to detail and making my wife and I feel at home
Their service and attention was exceptional
The room and hotel was beautifully decorated with a very nice restaurant attached
Breakfast was well prepared each morning
Very friendly, within easy reach of most places, comfortable rooms
One of our best travel experiences ever
The hotel staff were exceptional - as was the restaurant onsite, the location was perfect for sight seeing, eating, shopping - you name it
Do youself a favor and stay in this beautiful botique hotel in the heart of everything
It will be our go-to place when we come back
Great location in the heart of Barcelona
The staff spoke excellent English and were very accommodating to us as guests at their boutique hotel
The kitchen or breakfast area was apparently having some work done, so the included breakfast served in the room, which did not have much of an area to eat, thus making it a bit awkward
The restaurant was terrible and pricey( for our dinner
) The staff was very kind however
They packed our diner and we gave it to the homeless men in front of the hotel
good breakfasts
lots of nice touches in room ,such as small sweets, cakes and fruit
can be some noise from the square below in the night by people, but window shutters control most of this
overall the attractive building and other good features outweigh this unless you are a very light sleeper
Excelent staff, impeccable rooms, exceptional food
The best
What a lovely hotel, only 18 rooms and location is great, in the gothic quarter, next to La Ramblas
Staff are really helpful and friendly and brought us little treats such as chocolates and fruit and biscuits
Would recommend this hotel to anybody
Situated right on The Ramblas and within a small square full of restaurants and bars that you would easily walk past
The staff were great on arrival and our room ready 2 hours before it was due to be
You really got the impression that they wanted you to enjoy your stay and that feeling continued over the weekend
The room was spotless with lots of nice little touches by room service - chocolates / fruit /umbrella

Restaurant - we only had breakfast so can't comment on the actual quality of the evening menu
Their menu was a step above those in surrounding restaurants and the prices reflected that
You can have a 3 course meal for two and bottle of wine in a nice restaurant for E60-70
You are probably doubling that at the Hotel restaurant
Bearing in mind there is famous farmers market about 200yds away where you can have a quick bite to eat from food prepared with the freshest produce and have a glass of wine for E10 that probably does explain why their restaurant was pretty much empty
You don't want to be the only customer in an empty restaurant and at this time of year when your fighting for business a lower spec menu might drag people through the door
exceptional
A thoroughly enjoyable boutique hotel
We were especially impressed with the food on the terrace, which was about the best we had the whole time in the city
The tapas were inventive and consistently delicious
More that once we chose to eat tapas at the hotel rather than go out since the flavors were so great
Excellent location adjacent to Gothic Quarter and Las Ramblas
Room was very comfortable, with modern bathroom and large window with French balcony
Service is prompt and congenial
The included breakfast is ordered from a menu, but there are many choices and you can eat as much as you like
Taxi stand next to the hotel was convenient, and rides cost about half of what you would pay elsewhere, so you can skip the bus or subway
The only drawback is the incessant noise from the Placa Reial until the early morning hours
However, the windows block out nearly all of the noise
Unlike some other hotels in the area, there are no musty odors or perfume smells, either in the hallways or room
There are only a small number of rooms, so the hotel never feels crowded, though guests coming back from celebrating late at night can be unruly
Otherwise, the stay was very relaxing and enjoyable
The greeting we received and level of support and service was nice
The hotel is located right off the Rambla and adjacent to the Plaza Real
You're in the center of some action
The room was very nicely appointed with a comfortable bed
There was ample storage space
The bathroom was large and appointed with Molton Brown products and featured both a rainshower and tub
Everything about the room was luxurious
great Tapas love sitting out in the courtyard
Well appointed room, friendly staff, delicious full breakfast
Great people watching at their restaurant in the place open all day into late in the evening
Close to many of Barcelona's main attractions
Incredible attention to detail
Fantastic staff
Delicious food
If a hotel could be a 6 star hotel, this is it
Amazing location in the heart beat of the city
Walk to everything and the food is outstanding
The staff is  charming, and very responsive
The rooms are beautiful and very comfortable
Excellent location, great hotel with excellent restaurants and great rooftop bar
Each day we came back to our hotel we found an afternoon treat of fruit in our room
On my birthday, we found a nice card with a bottle of champagne
The staff was friendly and very helpful with suggestions
Best hotel I've ever stayed in
The staff were extremly helpful and pleasant
We were brought to our room by a bellhop who was extremely helpful and spent time explaining everything in the room
All non-alcoholic drinks in the minibar were FREE (and there were tons to choose from)
We received a nice welcome drink and fresh fruit was brought to our room (again, all complimentary)
The decor was like a spa and we felt so relaxed
Though the hotel is centrally located in a very busy and bustling plaza, the windows were soundproof and we slept soundly all night
This place was absolutely perfect and well definitely stay here if ever back in Barcelona
Just about perfect - only the lack of an exercise room (no space for it in the historic building) keeps this from being one of the best hotels anywhere
This boutique hotel lived up to its name in every way
Every aspect of our stay was amazing and memorable
We celebrated our 11th anniversary at the DO and the staff was incredible
They catered to our needs, and provided special anniversary treats that my wife and I will never forget
The rooms are large for Europe, clean, beautifully decorated and you could hear no noise from the Placa Reial (the night of our stay was a major festival, did not disturb us at all)
This hotel is not to be missed
On top of the lovely room and service we enjoyed a fabulous diner in the hotels LaCuina restaurant, the chefs tasting menu was Michelin star worthy, with great service
Also the included breakfast the next morning was scrumptious
Was truly a perfect stay
Cant wait to return to visit again soon
Great location, staff helpful and friendly
Rooms modern, clean and had little balcony overlooking the square
staff were very good and we had a very enjoyable stay
Tremendous staff , all very helpful ,excellent breakfast , from a menu
gloriously large bathroom
Would not stay anyplace else in barcelona
Stituated on a wonderful square and close to the sea
Staff very friendly and helpful
Rooms not the biggest but very clean
Roof terrace a great place to relax with a beer
Pros: Clean hotel, friendly staff, good location
Only downfall was the room was a little small
Overall I would definitely staff there again
Location extra , can not be better
Lots of food, market, restaurant within 2 minutes walk
Big negative is that you hear everything happening on the floor, people walking by with heels, talking, etc
We were on floor 6, in a jewel suite
Only 3 others rooms on that floor and noise from corridor was not pleasant
Concierge/butler Robert was AMAZING , but reception staff that day were below average, condescendant almost , didnt seem to care about clients, were laughing between them in spanish thinking that we wouldn't understand that they were saying that room was ready but didnt want to gibe it to us even taught we were supposed to have early check in with that room
First impression is a lot and it fails at that hotel
Also picture of rooms on website where not room we were given
explanation was that there as 2 and we got the other one
the one where the sofa is NEXT to tv and not in front of so totally useless
There was also no special jewelry piece in the room as mentioned on website, i was told it was because of a turnover
but even butler had never seen one in this room
Stayed at The Hotel Do prior to cruise and wold definitely go back there again but never to Bagues
The staff were welcoming and friendly and always keen to help
Despite being in popular, lively location, rooms were quiet, clean and comfortable
Would definitely recommend 5*
Initially we were allocated a room that was very dark and the window looked onto a dark wall
We phoned reception and were quickly taken to another overlooking Las Ramblas, much better
The beds were very comfortable and apart from the metro rumble from under the hotel the soundproofing was great
We didn't try the rooftop splash pool, not quite warm enough in March
The reception staff were all very cheerful, helpful and knowledgeable
Our only criticism was in regard to breakfast
the tomatoes I ordered with my eggs arrived after I'd eaten the eggs and the next morning my friends toast arrived late and there were no English Breakfast tea bags available only earl grey or herbal
The location is great, close to buses and the metro and perfect to walk to the harbour, the gothic area, markets etc
Visited Hotel Bagues while on a business trip for the second time
The staff and management were incredible and accommodating to the greatest standards
The hotel is impeccably clean, modern and comfortable
From the minute I arrived, I genuinely felt taken care of and was beyond pleased with the experience
I will definitely be back
The hotel is beautiful both inside and out
Room is very sophisticated with dark tile and very clean
I must say, before I arrived, I had reservations due to the location
I am a very light sleeper and I was having second thoughts about staying on Las Ramblas and possible outside noise
The room was sound proof and the only noise from the outside I ever heard were the church bells (once)
The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable
This was our first time to Barcelona and we loved everything about the location of our hotel
Stay here, you won't be disappointed
Myself and my partner were delighted with our stay
The staff made us feel very welcome and we loved our beautiful room
The hotel was very central and had good transport links to either side
Great location, wonderful service, luxury amenities, but bathroom had tub for shower and no grab bars or tub mat to prevent slipping, small amount of vanity service
Bedroom was luxurious, turndown service, pillow menu, plush robes and slippers
Desk service was
Hotel was central location, i love walking so was not a problem for us, in the sense main attractions were walking distance, but some were more than 30 minutes, lots of tapas bars, lots of choice,
the hotel staff were very friendly, the only thing i could say that breakfast should have been included, as very expensive for what it was, no cooked food, expect eggs, breakfast would have been an extra 23 euros, which to me was alot, when i normally book with Expedia, it has always been included and i did not look at the small print, also had a flight with BA, and did not realise only hand luggage was included in our price, WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN
Friendly staff
Lovely room
Would like to have had soap in the bathroom
Wonderful stay at Hotel Bagues
Not only is the location perfect, the interior stunning and the rooms impeccable, the service from the staff is the best I've received
nothing was too much and it felt like they genuinely wanted you to love every minute of your stay
Great hotel with amazing staff
I stayed around 3 weeks total at this hotel and will stay again without hesitation
The decor is perfect even if the rooms are a little on the small side for a 5 star
But they are still comfortable, although the walls can seem a little thin at times
The roof is fine for a chill out and has amazing views of the city and La Ramblas
The only downside is the lack of onsite parking should you have a car
Mini bar is expensive so proceed with caution
We had a superb weekend break staying in a superb boutique hotel conveniently located for exploring the city
The hotel staff were incredibly helpful and attentive
We were in Barcelona for my wifes 40th and were pleasently surprised when early evening on our first night we were presented with a free bottle of champagne and chocolates in our room, lovely touch
thank you
We would definitely book this hotel again when visiting Barcelona
Small rooms, but tastefully furnished while maximizing the limited space
Wonderfully friendly and professional staff
Only complaint (which is beyond the hotel's control) is the rumbling of the Metro, which turned out to be our very early wake up call each day
Had a wonderful week long stay at hotel bagues
The place is lovely and in a great location
The hotel staff are extremely helpful and very approachable
Excellent
Walls a bit too thin
I had a few rooms outside travelling together who made too much noise at night talking outside my room
Was great staff was friendly and helpful would stay there next time if I get to go
Stayed 4 nights
Located central and its in the middle of La-Rambla
Close to most of the attractions and most importantly to catalunya square where you can get sight seeing buses, metro, buses, taxis
Lovely lovely staff who managed to make us feel VIP
Negatives are - 1
Rooms are very congested
Small bathrooms
Pool was ultra small and only good for kids
Roof top area was a waste and don't count on it
Bar-man looked scary who was smoking marijuana when we went there
Very nice lovely hotel my only issue was the dark bathroom
Stayed in one of the Jewel suites with fab jacuzzi outside on the balcony
really great service all round
Small chic boutique hotel on la Rambla
Very contemporary decor, beautiful room and bathroom
Roof top bar and pool
Very very friendly and helpful staff
Perfect location
car parking around the corner extrembly tight and not for amateur drivers
Very nice touches and would have stayed longer but for time constraints
Very nice hotel with excellent staff,very helpful and friendly
Little disappointed  with the pool and rooftop bar as it could not accommodate more then 15 people
Did lots of shopping, sightseeing and good eating
Even got to the beach
The staff recommendations for restaurants was great and they made all the bookings
Couldn't fault anything
: the hotel was great and staff couldn't do enough for you
Would always stay there
Great room
Great Staff
Surprise roof top sunning area
Very nice staff, and right next to the Gothic Quarter
They even had a pillow menu
Great location
Swimming pool is a joke
on pictures looks fine, in reality it is less than a glorified bathtub
Impossible to swim in
Roof top terrace has minimal space, uncomfortable seating facilities
Super pleasant experience
Nice hotel, excellent location, beautiful welcome present
The hotel is located at the heart of La Rambla where all the restaurants and shopping district are available, the hotel staff are extremely helpful and friendly
The room was very nice and clean with a comfortable bed and the wifi was fast
The only problem is the vibrations you feel when a train passes below the hotel (metro)
The noise on the street cant be heard unless a group of drunk people pass by and started screaming
the hotel itself is OK
For me i am not into shopping and nightlife when I am away, I would prefer to go somewhere near the sights of the city
The hotel facilities are limited, the steam room, sauna and fitness center are a joke (you have to ask for them to be turned on and there is 3 pieces of gym equipment)
The floor in the room wasnt clean and left my feet black on two of the days
Dissapointed with the coffee facilities, you only get 2 free coffees (no tea or anything else)
There is a mini bar but you have to pay for everything
For the price of the room I would of thought there might have been a free bottle of water and possibly some free snacks (the last hotel i stayed at in London had a free mini bar, alcoholic drinks excluded)
And the hotel in London was cheaper
So this just lets it down
The staff are amazing
They gave us tips and places to avoid
They even suggested the cheapest metro ticket
So really pleased with them
Very nice hotel, great staff, good service, cool decoration, location is awesome and it is right next to the market
Breakfast seemed though expensive, so we skipped it
Perhaps lowering the price of the minibar could improve sales
Great reception we had and great recommendations he made us to visit
It is very centrally located but at night to look out for the pocketpickers which are noticeable in groups as they are looking for solo tourist
Rooms are very upscale and modern and love the blinds that blockout all light
This hotel is RIGHT on Las Ramblas, meaning one of the things you HAVE to see is right outside your door
Great shopping, eating and close to the subway so you can see all the museums and other areas of Barcelona
Very cool hotel that is tucked right on the street, but all that noise stays out with good windows
The standard of service at Bagues was as ever superb, we've stayed twice before
The staff are all magnificent
A few things to me that are open to improvement
Wi-Fi in an expensive boutique hotel should be free, coffee making facilities ought to be available in the room, the breakfasts weren't quite as good as I remembered and the steam room in the gym was out of action this stay
Nevertheless, the quality of staff and standard of service go a long way and it's easy to overlook the minor shortcomings
Great location and the staff was friendly and very helpful
Our room had a window onto the Rambla, which we loved but it can be a little loud if you are not used to city noise
Very clean and the turn down service with chocolates was a nice added touch we were not expecting
All I can say about this hotel is---- They do everything correctly with an incredible location
Great location on Las Ramblas right next to the big market
The hotel was comfortable and very clean
The staff were extremely personable and helpful
I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone going to Barcelona
AWEASOME PLACE TO STAY
What's good
Nice staff good location
What's not
Very uncomfortable room
Small bed
No dressing table nor any table
No mirror
No coffee machine nor kettle
Small narrow bathtub without safety handle
Unusual hight of Wc
Bad choice of washbasin
Bad lighting distribution
We were disappointed
Expected much more for that price
Location good, rooms good, breakfasts good, but everything else - AVERAGE
No welcome drink, not so friendly guy on reception, dirty windows at room and the biggest disappointment was the pool on the roof (which we were really looking forward to)
It was very small, but that's ok, it's small hotel, but there were dirty beds, dirty towels and no bar service
Great location
Modern
Clean
Metro underneath, so it vibrates
Zero isolation between room, you can hear everything other people are doing
This 5 start hotel had a very poor welcome, they left a botle of water in the room, but they do leave a small candy in the bed every night
Coffe is complementary in the room, but be carefull, only the first 4 cups, then they will charge you 3
50 euros per cup
The hotel maybe has the 5 stars for the location, but the service is of a 3 star
Had a wonderful time there
The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make sure our stay was enjoyable
Very modern décor and the location near city center was all you could ask for
Would recommend this hotel whole heartedly
Close to everything a tonne of room, very relaxing atmosphere and staff were very helpful
Only tiny criticism was the shower wasn't the best and there was no aircon but the fan was fine in August when we travelled
Would definitely stay again
Can't rate the staff and hotel high enough
Everyone was so friendly and helpful
The restaurant recommendations were wonderful
The staff went out of their way to be helpful
The location was perfect
In the midst of the activity but quiet when you wanted to shut out the noise
This was the best hotel we've stayed at and we've traveled all over Europe and the U
Would highly recommend it
Great location directly on the Ramblas
The staff was always willing to answer all of our questions and offered suggestions upon our arrival
The rooftop bar and pool terrace is gorgeous and the overall ambiance of this hotel is elegant and modern
My girlfriend and I thotoughly enjoyed the experience and will stay here again if we ever come back to Barcelona
5th floor room above Las Ramblas
No noise when balcony door was closed
Staff was excellent and very helpful and insightful
Hotel was very quiet and was excellent location with lots of restaurants, museums, and shopping closeby
Breakfast was OK, but not included in the room cost
I was surprised by a few things with this hotel: our room was not ready by 3pm so we were "downgraded" to a very dark room with a patio window instead of window to the street
Not possible to get a simple iron and iron table: they simply don't have that
No soap in the bathroom: you have to wash your hands with shower gel
However, the hotel is very nice, modern and elegant, and service is "good", just "good"
Hotel Bagues had very modern & clean rooms
We found everything we needed (slippers, bathrobes, hairdryer, complimentary water bottle)
The view from the rooftop is lovely, and the 'pool' (although tiny) is a nice way to cool off and enjoy some sun
The hotel staff were beyond helpful from restaurant recommendations to booking sightseeing tickets and information regarding the airport shuttle bus
We were able to comfortably walk to plenty of shopping and also down to the waterfront (about 15 min)
The food in the restaurant is good (enjoyed at a 30% discount for hotel guests), but quite pricey nonetheless - I would suggest walking a few streets off La Ramblas for any meals
I would definitely recommend this hotel
Fantastic hotel room, rooftop pool, close to the market, sites, and subway
