This is a charming boutique hotel in the heart of the Gothic Quarter. The rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed. The staff is extremely warm and welcoming and ready to assist you with your needs during your stay. Daniella at the front desk was amazing! Most of the staff speak English, but it is always a kind gesture to speak to them in Spanish if you speak the language. We had only one meal (brunch) in the restaurant, and the food was very well prepared. The dining rooms and bar area are absolutely lovely, and the entire hotel is very on "Gothic" theme. We would have given it 5 stars, but...the rooms are SO incredibly dark. They are beautifully appointed as we noted, but if you don't keep a light on somewhere in the hallway, you are almost in pitch darkness. Also, the hotel is located down a dead-end side street. Most taxi/uber drivers had no clue where it was or where to drop us off when they did eventually find it. Be reminded that you are in the Gothic Quarter, which is not the safest area in Barcelona. We noted several "suspect" individuals as we were coming and going.

What a beautiful experience we had at the Wittmore! The hotel is charming and well run with kind staff who are helpful and knowledgeable about the area! There was so much attention to detail through our stay. Breakfast in the courtyard was a true delight. They made sure we always had ice, fresh water and beverages in our room. The nightly chocolates are so yummy! I would return to Barcelona just to stay here again!

The Wittmore Hotel is amazing! The staff are friendly and know who you are and your drink order within a day. The rooms were comfortable, clean and luxurious. The restaurant was very good for both dinner and breakfast. My favorite thing about this hotel was the rooftop pool. It was the perfect place to relax in the late afternoon after a day of exploring Barcelona! I highly recommend this hotel and hope to stay again!

Everything was excellent and the guys at the front desk, all of them, were the nicest.

From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional — warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Every member of the friendly, helpful staff made the stay feel effortless, creating a lovely atmosphere throughout the hotel. Our room was well appointed, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, with retro touches that gave it real character. Breakfast was a highlight: delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented, the perfect start to each day. A wonderful stay from start to finish — highly recommended.
