We stayed at the Regina for two nights preceding our cruise departing from Barcelona. Although the hotel is ideally located just off the city center, our room had two major problems. First, was that the airconditioning, if you want to call it that, was practically non-existent. We have a thermometer on our travel clock radio and the coolest that the room ever got was 73F. Anytime we left the room the Air conditioning was turned off, resulting in a considerably warmer room upon our return. Although there were thermostat and fan setting switches on the wall of our room, neither appeared to be functioning. Our second complaint was that the bathroom floor completely flooded each time the shower was used....due to a leak under the shower door. We brought both of these problems to the front desk after our first night, even explaining where the shower was leaking from and nothing was done to correct either problem. One other side issue is that the chair in the room is extremely uncomfortable....too low and no arms. (If we wanted to sit anywhere, we had to sit on the bed.) My parents were in another room and theirs had a beautiful leather chair.

My husband and I stayed here last week for 2 nights. We found the hotel absolutely perfect, the location was great the service was good, it was very clean, very contemporary and offered us everything we needed for a short city break. I have to say the beds were absolutely amazing, so comfortable I don't think we have ever slept so well being away from home.
Would definitely book a room again should we revisit beautiful Barcelona

Our family of 9 ( 7 adults and 2 children) just returned from our wonderful 7 night stay at the Hotel Regina, Barcelona. The hotel is located 2 minutes from Plaza Catalunya and could not be in a better location to get around the city. We got the airport bus in which leaves you off outside the Corte Ingles right opposite the street the hotel is on. When we arrived, check in was quick and the staff could not be more helpful. They gave us a family room for 4, a triple room for 3 and a superior double which also had an extra partition with a bed in it. The rooms all had bottles of champagne, large bathrooms with 2 sinks and lots of toiletries. The beds were huge and very comfortable and each room had a 32 inch plasma screen. We asked for rooms on the first floor and they were all located together so it was like having your own little section of the hotel. I contacted the manager who is also manager of the award winning Hotel Pultzier which is next door and we were also able to use their amenities too. The manager arranged for us to have rooms plus breakfast, which turned out to be the best choice and well worth the extra money. It was a buffet breakfast with a variety of breads/ croissants/ cakes/ cheeses/juices/ cereals/ tortillas/ fresh fruit and salads and more.. The staff were extremely helpful, in particular Lucila who heled us get concert tickets. The food in the hotel is really good and reasonably priced and the bar staff make sure everything is perfect for you. For some of the group, it was our 2nd time in Barcelona and it was even better this time around. before we stayed in Barceloneta beside the beach which is a bit of a trek into the city centre. Everything is within walking distance of Hotel Regina and it really helps when you have somewhere luxurious to come back to when you have had a long day playing the tourist. I would 100% reccommend this hotel and Barelona to any traveller.

Have just returned from a 2 night stay, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location of this hotel is perfect. It's right in the centre of the city, so a perfect starting point to explore. And also very easy to get back to - all types of transport are right outside.

From the moment we arrived, the staff were very helpful and efficient. The room was an unusual shape but an acceptable size. The beds were comfy.

Our only complaint was being located right next to the infamous housekeeping cupboard, and therefore heard every door open and close as the staff went about their work in the early hours. To be fair, we didn't mention this to management, as we were only there for 2 nights and didn't want the hassle of changing our room. The staff were very helpful in letting us store our luggage after checking out, for nearly a whole day. Also, no free wine or chocolates in the room, as others have noted.

We felt safe and secure in and outside the hotel at all times, which was nice, being 2 females.

I would recommend this hotel highly.
