It's been ages since I've written a Yelp review, so I think it's good to kick things off with a 5-star post.
I stayed at Ofelias Hotel back in October. It was a long weekend trip to Barcelona to celebrate my birthday and also soak up some autumn sun.
I had an amazing time. Barcelona is a beautiful city, so I'm sure I would have enjoyed it either way, but the sun was shining, the food didn't disappoint and we stayed at Ofelias.
First thing you notice as you step into the reception is the smell of perfume. Not too intrusive and not overly sweet, the scent perforates every room and space in the hotel.
It's not an ant-hill of a hotel - it's fairly small and not busy at all. You'll have enough privacy, even by the rooftop pool.
Another great thing about the hotel is the design. It's decorated extremely tastefully, with stunning paintings tactically placed to complement the stylish furniture.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. The beds are comfortable. The bathrooms are have a kickass walk-in shower. Oh, what more could you ask for?
Bicycles, you say? Well, the hotel offers a free bicycle hire service.
There you go, those 5 stars are completely justified. I would happily stay at Ofelias again and again and again. read more
