I stayed in the chic and basic born hotel for 2 nights with my partner. I thought the rooms were very nice, maybe a little bit too funky for some. The bed was firm and very comfortable for us. Some may not like the coloured lights or the shower being in the bedroom, but for me that's what made this... More

We stayed 3 nights in the hotel/ the staff were very helpfull. location is central but quiet, we also rented bikes to go around/ just near by to the park and to the gothic barrierr my partner needs accecibility adjustments, and we had recieved everything we needed

Location in El Born area is excellent and a block away from the Metro. There's a small tapas restaurant right next door that open from breakfast and dinner, but that's about it, which makes the area a bustling during the day but quiet at night. We couldn't believe that we're actually in the city of Barcelona! We were welcomed and... More

We spent 2 nights in this hotel and were really glad that we choose this place. Easy to find, great location,walking distance to Rambla and metro station but nice and quiet. I liked Born district,it's full of little bars,restaurants and shop. The rooms are very small,but nice and stylish same like rest of the hotel. There is also small balcony.... More

Having stayed in Barcelona before I knew where I wanted to stay and stay away from! C&B Born was in the perfect area surrounded by nice bars and restaurants without the throngs of tourists everywhere and a gorgeous park on its doorstep! We got upgraded to the largest room which was a nice little perk, big bed, good shower, descent... More

Great concept, extremely good value, astonishingly helpful and friendly staff (seriously, could have stayed in the lobby and chatted to them all day!) and Born is fantastic. The hotel is in a stunning old building with a very grand staircase and a contemporary design. It's definitely got a bit of wow factor, is original and had some nice touches, though... More

Chic & Basic in Born has a super location - close to all the Barcelona sites and in Born where you can find all the restaurants and bars you want. The staff was super friendly and helpfull. The hotel itself though needs some fixing up - there was a very unpleasant musty/moldy smell both in the room and in the... More

We stayed at the Hotel back in 2008 .. Loved the Hotel and el Born! The restaurant at the Hotel has great food and great service. The staff at the hotel was friendly and the rooms untraditional. A fun expirience.

Was lucky to book this hotel just two days before the start of MWC - alternative vacant options at that time could be found either in 50+ kilometers from city center (in Granollers and other outskirts) or at a whopping 800 EUR per night (offer from nearby INDIGO boutique hotel). Given above mentioned situation, I was prepared for the worst... More
