Modern 24-storey building overlooking plaza to front of Sants railway station. 4*Superior hotel with corresponding amenities .Young,bright as buttons reception staff,excellent standard of English,staff generally pleasant and welcoming .Fine building with extensive glass areas,impression of space and light throughout with energy of the city of Barcelona surging through.Rooms at front with magnificient views but subject to strong sunlight,very much to my liking,rooms at rear more shaded; sol o sombre,you choose.Food of good standard ;breakfast 18-24€ range,reasonable value if served in room ,a shade pricey if availed of in restaurant ,in my opinion.Room service food of good quality with amiable service.Located as stated beside Sants but 45 mins walk from Placa Catalunya/Ramblas areas(of course,taxis/metro available).Well placed for access from airport-take Aercoach to Placa Espanya,walk up c.Tarragona 10 mins-also;direct train from airport Terminal 2 only to Sants every 30 mins. Reception area and seating off disappointing for hotel of this grading-would benefit from installation of quality seating,perhaps one or two works of art and some potted plants to improve ambience.In general,an excellent hotel,difficult to fault in any major respect in my estimation
