This was OK but wouldn't consider it to be a 4 star hotel. There were a few pluses though: the reception staff (particularly Manuel) were very friendly, efficient and really helpful. We got there early after getting off a cruise and luckily were able to check in OK. The pastries at breaksfast were gorgeous! Got a free welcome Cava served... more

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights in March 2008. Initial impressions of the hotel were positive, the hotel is located centrally and almost all of the attractions we wanted to see were in walking distance. There is a small but pleasant reception area in the hotel and the staff were very helpful and spoke good english. Our... more

We stayed for 1 week in a twin room at the Regente in late April. Was somewhat concerned given some of the reviews, but ended up being pleasantly surprised. The location was absolutely perfect. Close to everything, but in a quieter area. Good restaurants and great shopping all very close. Always felt safe when walking at night. No problem with... more

We have been to Barcelona several times,& were a bit dubious when we read some of the reviews.However,there was no need to worry - fabulous!!! - our room was overlooking Ramblya de Catalunya on the 7th floor it was absolutely spotless , & the staff couldn't do enough for you.Also the roof terrace was a lovely place to sit out... more

Wanted a triple room for 3 adults, room was OK but not a triple, more like a double with an extra single bed. Room too small, no room to store 3 suitcases, plus an exercise bike took up space and was unused. Room and bathroom were clean, room looked on to an alleyway with a building a few feet away.... more

Great location, very friendly staff. Decent room, somewhat worn. All but sound-proof, nice if you want to hear what your neighbours are talking about. Not much noise from the streets though. Perhaps not really what you'd expect of a 4*-rated hotel but still enough to be satisfying if you're not very picky. Never tried the breakfast. The city overall was,... more

We stayed at the Regente for a long weekend in April - arriving Thur night and leaving Sunday. The hotel is very central and is great for exploring the city. We opted for a room without a view and i'm glad we did - seeing the amount of traffic that runs through the streets of the City I can only... more

While the hotel has got a fairly good central location, I certainly would not rate it as 4* hotel. The room was very average, bed + bed linen was rather unconfortable and certainly not warm enough. Bathroom was too small to turn around, and while taking a shower, water temperature would be constantly changing. For some reason there as an... more

We recently stayed at the HCC Regente in Barcelona, and were so so impressed with the lovely hotel. I emailed the hotel in advance to say we were holidaying as it was an anniversary, and we were presented with champagne on arrival, was fab!!! our room was very clean and spacious, with a wonderful balcony looking over Barcelona, lovely in... more
