I recently stayed at Sercotel Hotel Rosellón and had a mixed experience.
The location is definitely a highlight—it’s just a short walk to the Sagrada Familia, which makes it very convenient for sightseeing. The surrounding area is also easy to navigate, with access to public transportation nearby.
However, the maintenance of the hotel needs improvement. On our very first night, the bathroom lavatory was already clogged the first time we used it. The bathroom tiles also had visible mold, which was quite disappointing and affected the overall cleanliness impression.
Another downside is the room temperature control. Guests cannot adjust it themselves since it’s centrally managed. During our stay, I woke up sweating on two separate nights, which made it quite uncomfortable.
The breakfast was just okay—very basic, with limited choices and the same selection every day. The only standout for me was the freshly squeezed orange juice, which was a nice touch.
We also tried the rooftop bar, mainly for the view of the Sagrada Familia, which is indeed beautiful. Unfortunately, the food did not match the view. The nachos were bland, and the burgers were not enjoyable.
Overall, while the location is excellent, I personally find this hotel overrated. If you’re planning to explore more of Barcelona, I would recommend considering other accommodations, as the city is very accessible by bus and metro anyway.
