We loved the central location. We found great food within walking distance on both sides away from La Rambla. It was also an easy walk to the attractions that we were looking at. The hotel itself is clean, quiet and staff very helpful. Photos not of the hotel but all things you see nearby.

We stayed at Hotel 1898 in late September 2026 for just one night following a Mediterranean cruise. We found the hotel to be clean, modern and beautifully maintained. The staff was helpful and attentive. We would gladly stay there again when we’re in Barcelona.

The rooftop bar and pool are fabulous with incredible views over the city. Nice breakfast and my room was really comfy and roomy. Loved the location right off La Rambla and it’s an easy walk to Placa Catalunya subway which makes getting around very easy. Very environmentally conscious property. Would definitely stay here again!
