Hotel Primero Primera

Sorry for the late review!
I stayed here with my boyfriend back in October 2014, and this was quite an exceptional find! We booked the hotel through reviews on tripadvisor, and just like the other review wrote it really is a God send.
The hotel is located outside of the touristy areas, closest train station is about a 5 minute walk away from the train station Les Tres Torres, which in turn is about a 10 – 15 minute train ride to Placa Catalunya.
Everything about the hotel is perfect. The rooms were huge! The bathroom was amazing! Everything was spotless. The bed was so comfortable — we had a king size bed, and after a long flight from NY, and walking around all day in the sun, that bed was amazing!
We did get to enjoy the complimentary breakfast, which was perfect! Fresh breads, hardboiled eggs, coffee, juices, etc. Great start to our days in Barcelona.
The staff go out of their way to make sure you are happy with the hotel, from printing out passes for us and making recommendations to local restaurants. We were lucky enough to be there during some warm evenings, and we purchased a couple of bottles of wine, and sat outside in the patio area enjoying the perfect weather.
Overall — highly highly recommend this hotel. Honestly stay here. Thank me later :)

Hotel Primero Primera is a godsend! Found the hotel through TripAdvisor; I wanted to stay out of the tourist throngs in Barcelona, where I have never been. It’s about a 10 minute Metro ride or cab ride to Plaza Catalunya, more or less the dead center of town, but it’s in a neighborhood that reminds me of the Upper East Side, except with smaller buildings. The hotel is new, a boutique hotel. We have a king room suite that is just beautiful and immaculate. The bathroom – my God, this is literally the nicest bathroom I have ever stayed in my entire life. There is a tub for soaking and a massive walk in shower with a showerhead the size of a small frisbee, so you get a hot blast of torrential rain. The room has a balcony that looks out over the cute little swimming pool. The lobby has a library with an honor bar and a room with 24-​hour free coffee and ice water and a Mac with an Internet connection. The staff is wonderful – they gave us detailed instructions on taking the Metro (an easy 3-​block walk) to our destinations, gave us restaurant recommendations, advice on when to go or avoid going to certain popular destinations, called us taxi cabs when we needed. A very nice breakfast is included in the room, with meats, fruit, cereal, granola, various fresh breads and jam, boiled eggs, coffee, tea and juice. I loved being able to escape the crowds and humid city heat and walk back into my quiet, ice-​cold room. And the room was less than one of those big tourist hotels in the city where I would never receive the attention and enjoy the privacy I have here. I am so glad I found this place and urge you to consider it carefully if my philosophy of hotel selection seems to match yours. Thanks to everyone at Primero Primera for all your wonderful help! Oh and free Wi-​Fi!

Un lugar excelente para residir. En primer lugar por el agradable trato que dispensan. En segundo por el buen gusto y calidad de las instalaciones. En tercero por su buen emplazamiento.
