H10 Montcada

Great rooms. Got a free upgrade. The bed is a bit on the small side but the breakfast, roof and balcony is great. The desk staff are amazing but the breakfast staff need some help.
They wouldn’t let us take our coffee or water to the room and made us pour it into paper cups. Really not cool and super embarrassing.
Otherwise I would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at the H10 Montcada for 11 days over New Year’s Eve. It was an absolutely amazing experience. We stayed in a «deluxe double» and had plenty of space and storage.
They offered a delicious and exclusive 9 course dinner on NYE followed by a beautiful rooftop fireworks display and cava toast over the city skyline. On the eve of Dia de Los Reyes we were surprised to find a HUGE street parade along Via Laietana.
The staff was amazing (special shout out to Miguel who makes the best cosmos and Ron y Coca-​colas). We could not have enjoyed our stay in Barcelona more. Thank you so much to everyone at H10 Montcada for the best honeymoon we could’ve imagined.

Situation idéale au centre des quartiers historiques, petite chambre fonctionnelle, pour un court séjour (4 nuits), prévoir les boules quiès pour dormir, notamment au 1er étage, rue piétonne passé sous la fenêtre chambre (109). Petit déjeuner copieux. Personnel accueillant et très souriant. Wi-​fi efficace.
Agréables moments pour découvrir la ville. J’y reviendrai sûrement…

I have stayed here both times I visited Barcelona. Though it is not perfect, I would recommend staying here.
Pros: great location, clean, safe, nicely decorated, great rooftop bar and jacuzzi with a wonderful view of the city. Easy access to subway.
Cons: a bit pricey compared with other hotels in the area, painfully slow wifi internet.
Other reviews have mentioned that the rooms are extremely small. I will say that given this is in Europe (different standards than in the US — except for New York City) I am pretty happy with the room size for two people. The bathroom is much larger than expected as well.

Rooms are the smallest I’ve ever seen. You cannot move around in there. Always dark. Breakfast was great, along with the rooftop, however, the room size is ridiculous.
Bathroom is tiny. Either book a deluxe size room (which will probably be a regular sized room) or stay at another hotel.
I know some people would say that hotels in Europe are smaller compared to rooms in America, however, I have stayed in hotels all over Europe (Rome, Prague, Zurich, Geneva, Bern, Berlin, Madrid, Mallorca) and none were nearly as small or dark as this one.

BEST LOCATION EVER! Stayed here in October for 6 night. 8^th floor with an amazing view. Room was spacious for European standards. Very clean and modern. It is right across the street from the metro (yellow line — «Jaume 1» stop). This hotel is in a great location. Can walk to many many places even though they seem far on the map, it really wasn’t. We went all over the city and Personally would not stay in any other area than the «gothic district» where this hotel was at. There’s tons of restaurants in the alleys behind the hotel. I recommend checking those out with the assistance of Unilocal.
Anyways, paid for the breakfast up front. 10 euros a day vs 15 each time. It was really tasty and would kill for some of that food right now! Also, free wifi in the room was really awesome and a good way to stay connected back home. Staff was friendly and helpful. Everything was straight forward with no hidden costs.
The roof top bar has an amazing view. Luckily for us, our room had the same views since we were one floor below with two giant windows that opened. YES, the windows opened unlike hotels in the US. I highly recommend anyone looking to stay in this area to stay at this hotel :)

We booked a room well in advance and got a fantastic deal. We were quite excited to stay here based on the generally positive reviews.
Arrival from the Barcelona airport is painless; about 10 – 15 minutes depending on traffic. Once you arrive to the H10 Montcada you will be swiftly checked in and offered a glass of champagne. Very nice!
Before arrival I made a request for a room with a pleasant view and a double bed. Both requests were granted, though I have to say the room was amazingly small for a purported 4 star hotel. There was room enough for the double bed and maybe 8 – 10 inches of walking space all around it. Oddly, they built a closet into the room which cut the space dramatically (by about ¹⁄₃) but the design offered very little in the way of practical storage space. Poor storage space and little floor space equals a cramped stay. Anyway, we didn’t come to Spain to stay in the room so who cares? :)
The room in general was clean and comfortable and had a lot of good amenities like a flat screen tv, mini bar, huge safe (good for a laptop) and tip top bathroom. The hotel roof has a gorgeous deck with a jacuzzi and bar which looked great, though it was somewhat too cold to use it other than to take a peek at the view. The lobby is fairly nice and has a bar that serves drinks and snacks. I have to say, if you get the «breakfast included» option, you will love it. Very good selection of items. Definitely worth the 10 euro’s we paid.
Aside from the good stuff, there were a few problems which were never addressed in the week that we were there. First, there was no working phone service! What kind of 4 star hotel has no working phones? We actually needed ours for business, so we were quite disappointed about it. The staff blamed the Telefonica phone company but seriously, if the problem existed prior to our arrival shouldn’t it have been sorted out within a few days? In our entire stay they didn’t get it working and no apologies were offered or provisions made; we solved it ourselves by buying a Skype subscription.
Second, the so called «high speed internet» is horridly slow, most likely due to the poor router broadcast strength, constant signal crashes, and a crappy overall service. We barely got 0.75 megs at best (and usually a lot less), just enough to check emails but no more. Forget about uploading video, images, or using any site with images.
Third, they claim to have a «business center» but in all honesty, it’s 2 old PC’s on a table in the corner of the lobby. The facilities were outdated and slow. Hardly usable in this day and age, again, except to check emails maybe.
Finally, for you English speakers, get ready for 3 channels in English: CNN, CNBC, and BBC News. That’s it! Other than that you get 200 mediocre channels that show German music videos, Mexican soap operas, and Al Jazeera news. Meh.
I have to add, that the little things here make me feel like the stay was a bit lackluster. First, the staff had a hard time communicating in English. I realize it’s Spain and English isn’t their first language, but their company says that the staff speaks English here. They really don’t. We had some questions about hooking our laptop up to the business center (and it’s hard wired internet connection) and it took 5 or 6 tries before we gave up due to vague non-​answers. Same with questions about check out, length of stay, etc.
However, despite all the negative stuff, I’d recommend this property to people, mostly because of the amazing location, but also because it’s clean, safe and relatively comfortable.
I also have to add, I’ve been to a lot of 4 star hotels and this property is not really a 4 star hotels by any Western standard I’m familiar with. Perhaps they should list themselves as a 3 star hotel in order to set realistic expectations for the customer, rather than overselling true 4 star hotel amenities they cannot furnish (high speed internet, business center, phones).
In a nutshell:
Pro’s: Location cannot be beat. Easy access to the Barrio Gotic, La Rambla and El Born area. Clean. Safe. Stellar roof facility. Good breakfast deal. Good value overall.
Con’s: VERY small rooms, noisy (even from an upper floor), appallingly slow internet service, limited English speaking staff, inadequate «business center», lame satellite tv service.

An excellent hotel for those staying in Barcelona for a short trip. Right in the middle of the Gothic Quarter, it overlooks the Jaume I metro station so the rest of the city is within reach too.
Having the winding alleyways of the el Gotic makes up for the relatively spartan hotel. The restaurant in the basement is fine, wouldn’t you rather find something at the Santa Catherina? Of course you would.

No sé cómo son las habitaciones, porque no he tenido el placer de dormir en ninguna de ellas. Pero de lo que me quedé enamorada fue de su terraza. Qué vistas por favor!!! Toda Barcelona a tus pies, con su mar azul pintando el horizonte. El barrio gótico, el borne, las torres Mapfre… Más bonito! Y la comida y el servicio excepcional. Un lujo que sólo puedes disfrutar en ocasiones especiales. Al menos una servidora que es de la Diagonal para abajo ;))
Celebramos el bautizo de la peque de una de mis mejores amigas, porque alquilan la zona para eventos y también para sesiones de fotografías. En la página web se pueden ver las vistas y los servicios disponibles. Todo y que lo mejor es hacerles una llamada y explicarles qué queréis organizar. Así que si os estáis pensando celebrar la soltería, el amor o que sois padres, aquí vais a triunfar. Y sin dejaros la cuenta corriente. Porque no es excesivamente caro si tenéis en cuenta la zona y el lugar. Un lujazo!

A bit disappointing in that I booked the Romantic Getaway option on the internet which included champagne and strawberries, but I had to ask for these and then was just given a voucher to present at the bar. The room was clean and tidy but small for an alleged four star. What makes this place is its roof top bar and location next to jaume tube station. I would stay here again purely for its’ location

Fantastisch gelegenes Hotel in Barcelonas wunderbarer Altstadt. Das H10 Montcada befindet sich ca. 2 Gehminuten entfernt vom Picasso Museum und genau gegenüber der U Bahn Station Jaume I. Die Katedrale ist 2 Minuten weg, der Hafen ca. 10, alles zu Fuß.
Es gibt eine wunderbare Dachterrasse von der aus man sicher einen der schönsten Blicke über die Stadt hat.
Das Haus selbst ist zweckmäßig. Kleine Zimmer, aber alles in Ordnung. Gefrühstückt habe ich lieber auswärts, da sich die Buffets in solchen Hotels ja immer ähneln und man für weniger Geld bestes Essen in direkter Nachbarschaft bekommt. Der Service ist auch super. Es gab sogar deutschsprachiges Personal an der Rezeption (obwohl wir die einzigen Deutschen waren). Zudem sind auch tolle Restaurant für wein oder andersseelige Abende mit ausgiebiger Verköstigung nah gelegen und man schafft es immer gut zu Fuß nach Hause.
Ich würde jederzeit wieder hinfahren und dort schlafen!
