"Although the guestrooms are on the small side, this is counter balanced by cutting edge technology and the superb contemporary interior the work of several famous designers."
"This eminently stylish addition to the hip Barcelona scene is not as crowded as its name implies, and has a special appeal to cool 30-somethings." Full review
"The result is a cheerful avant-garde aesthetic with luxurious details such as high-pressure shower heads." Full review
"The standard rooms are indeed a little Cramped, but full of designer twirls and a light, white and timber toned décor, all hidden behind an (often illuminated) 1892 façade." Full review
