All of the staff were great; friendly, helpful, especially Valentina (concierge), David and Daniel at the front desk. We felt welcome from check-in to check-out. Comfortable bed. Great air conditioning. Nice tub/shower with lots of space and water pressure. Beautiful view over Barcelona to the Mediterranean Sea from the infinity pool area. Food/tapas were very good. Breakfast had many tasty choices, including some of the best breakfast breads I have ever had. Very good location.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful and located very central to all major attractions in the Gothic Quarter. Service was impeccable and there is always someone willing to go above and beyond. The foods served at the rooftop restaurant were wonderful, with an infinity pool overlooking scenic views of the city. There are a broad variety of selections for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Not to mention the beds and pillows are so comfortable.

The hotel was excellent! The staff were so nice and friendly. I think David is the manager of the upstairs bar and downstairs buffet. He was very friendly and efficient. The included breakfast was amazing and the atmosphere was very lovely. The breakfast hostess, Napi, was so welcoming and one of the wait staff, Meledy, was so sweet and took time to chat. We will definitely recommend Grand Hotel Central to our friends and family.

Hotel is very inviting and staff make the experience truly memorable. Food is good and new restaurant canbo great for tapas unlike sky bar which has more traditional food.

This is a beautifully maintained hotel. The public areas and the rooms are excellent. The front desk staff and concierge are very friendly and helpful. We only had one night in the hotel because we were heading on to a cruise. The Can Bo restaurant was excellent too. Breakfast was okay, but no a la carte options, just a standard buffet. Location seemed to be very central. I would recommend for a city break.
