Hotel Denit

Recently stayed at Hotel Denit for 2 nights while vacationing on Spain. Very clean, easy to find and friendly staff.
The best part was definitely the location, right by plaza de catalunya, exiample and las ramblas. Easy access to the metro and if coming from the airport, the airport shuttle stop is approx 2 blocks away.

Honestly, I don’t know how it gets any better than this! Well, unless you want a real 5 star hotel and are willing to pay for it. But if you want convenience, value, cleanliness, friendly staff, comfortable room, decent breakfast, and access to all that Barcelona has to offer, this is your place! I picked this hotel for our 6 day stay based on Unilocal and Tripadvisor reviews and was hoping that it would be OK. Well, it was more than ok. It was fabulous! We had an XL room and it was pristine and super comfy. Ok, the shower was more like a wet room but once you get used to it, you figure out how to minimize the water on the bathroom floor. But the shower was great!
From a convenience perspective, you couldn’t ask for anything better. In a quiet alley just a block and a half off La Ramblas, you have access to all that you need but without the craziness and noise that a hotel fronting La Ramblas has. The Aerobus is right there at catalunya along with a huge metro station that makes getting around super easy! The street at the end of the alley, Carrer Comtal, is a pedestrian street filled with restaurants, bakeries, gelato, you name it! And it lets you avoid the crowds! And the Gothic quarter is at your doorstep!
The staff all spoke great English and were very helpful and courteous. A rack of umbrellas right at the front door came in handy a couple days when we had a bit of rain for our adventures. The breakfast was a typical European breakfast and was an easy start to the day without having to walk outside. There is no ice machine but the staff got us an ice bucket filled every day so we were able to chill our cava.
This place is a gem. I’d definitely stay here again and wouldn’t consider going anywhere else.

Hotel Denit was a happy find indeed! When you book a hotel online it always feels like a roll of the dice. Pictures and descriptions can often be deceiving. In this case, the pictures don’t do it justice! It looks cute in the photos but it’s far nicer in person.
Yes, it’s a compact European style hotel. We got the extra large room per other reviews and it’s more than ample for 2 people. The ultra modern décor with all white on white certainly makes it feel larger. Everything feels clean, new & efficient. Front desk is friendly, helpful on directions and everyone has spoken exceptional English. They’ve happily provided ice buckets for us to chill wine & cava in our room — all you need to do is ask!
The location in the Gothic section absolutely can’t be beaten! There are so many local attractions within walking distance and there are literally hundreds of local restaurants and shops within a 10 minute walk. It’s 2 blocks from multiple Metro line stops, the train & airport transportation stops.
The pedestrian only street feels safe at all hours and is very typical for this part of Barcelona. It’s a great part of town to stay in and I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

This hotel was in a perfect central location to the gothic district and surrounding areas. Yes it was small but the finishes and layout were beautiful and clean. Front desk person spoke english and was always friendly and helpful.
There are city books in the lobby and theres also a bike rental company and luggage locker place right next door. I would definitely stay here the next time I’m in Barcelona.

My companion and I stayed two nights, three days.
PLUSES about Location:
It’s minutes away from popular Catalunya Square, Bus #24 which can take you to the Park Guell (think Gaudi), AeroBus (straight to airport for E 6,9 – one of the best bargains ever), the Rambla – one of the grand promenades, meeting place for Barcelona Guide Bureau tours, the 9-​floor Corte Ingles department store with one of the best views of the square and the city from their 9^th floor restaurant, and underground Metro. It’s a 10 – 15 minute walk from their Contemporary Art Museum and 15 minute walk from Picasso Museum (be sure to check their schedule of days and hours).
PLUSES about Hotel:
Friendly and helpful staff. Paola, their day person (she’s originally from Switzerland), was one of the nicest. Clean accommodations, modern white look. Colorful bathroom amenities. Space was adequate for our needs. And because the hotel is located in an alley, there is no traffic sounds. We were on the first floor and it was quiet for us. Air conditioning worked well; wifi was quite decent. I appreciated their desktop computer for printing boarding passes, and availability of tour guide books that we could borrow. Reasonable price; easy check-​out process.
MINUSES:
Our overhead shower didn’t work; the handheld wand did so we were OK with it. Their strong recommendation of «Neyras» restaurant. We ate there, to our great regret. Go elsewhere.

I booked directly through the hotel’s website and SPECIFICALLY avoided the rate that said «NO REFUNDABLE». That means the rate that said «Romantic Package» is refundable, right? Apparently not as I attempted to cancel my stay with the hotel and am being told my reservation is non-​refundable. By the way the reservation is for A MONTH AND A HALF FROM NOW. I even attached a picture from the website pointing out the confusion of the wording and the hotel is still not refunding my money. Shameful behavior and likely reflective of how this hotel does business.

Super convenient location, a block away from Las Ramblas and Plaza de Catalunya where all the metro lines converge, including stop for the € 5.9 Aerobus to/​from airport. Friendly staff. We didn’t try the breakfast in the hotel.
The few cons are:
— Yes, the «S» (small) rooms are really cozy, we had a «L» one and it was just right
— They do have free wifi, but painfully slow (~0.3 Mbps down). And only web traffic (prob port 80 and 443). e.g. IMAP doesn’t work
— This is a small hotel, so you can hear everything your neighbor is doing (shower, having cereal in the room, etc.) We had room #5 on first floor right behind the checkin counter and you get to even hear all the languages of the travelers checking in

Modern ikea like design glass shower leaked so built a dam out of towels and needed daily replacement of towels wifi doesnt work very well here although they offer it free — Always have to re login after turning phone off with complicated ID’s and passwords and then poor signal– hotel in convenient location but very touristy location –

We stayed here for two nights following a Mediterranean cruise. It was our first visit to Barcelona and we were a little unsure of which district to opt for. The Denit is a only a couple of blocks from Las Ramblas, which makes it convenient and also quiet.
The free wi-​fi was great and there’s a printer in the lobby for printing boarding passes… very convenient.
The room was very comfortable and the shower IS great.
The breakfast was more than adequate and reasonably priced at 7euro.

We spent three nights in the Hotel Denit and had a wonderful time. The location cannot be beat. It is two blocks from La Rambla and less than a fifteen-​minute walk from the Gothic Quarter, but it is on a quiet and secluded little side street. The Denit staff are all incredibly helpful and friendly. They recommended restaurants and even made dinner reservations. The rooms are super cute and well-​appointed. The shower had a tendency to get water absolutely everywhere, but that was in part because it was so good that it was in use for long durations. The only negative aspect was that the continental breakfast, while offering quite a bit of variety, was still a little underwhelming. We will definitely stay at Hotel Denit again on our next visit to Barcelona.
