Overall, good stay.
The room was very nice, comfy beds, spacious compared to others i’ve stayed at in BCN for the money, nice shower, very accommodating and helpful staff. The only drawback was the room had a window to the street below that was extremely noisy all night long.

The daytime receptionist was normal, but the nightshift receptionist with cranky face was horrible, he didn't even say thank you when I checked out. I paid 5 euros as a deposit when I checked in, but it wasn't refunded when I checked out.

No elevator!!!!!! Almost impossible to get all our luggage up. Tiny room with ancient bedspreads. Pulls on cabinets all broken. Safe but no key. Had to leave room key at desk which we didn’t like. No coffee. Only positive was location and staff..

Great location and helpful staff
Friendly staff and great location. Some aspects of the room were tired - a faulty wardrobe door for example but on the whole ok. Some noise from nearby reception and WC but manageable overall and a pleasant stay.

This is a great value hotel in the perfect location in the heart of Barcelona. Steps from Aerobus, Metro, La Rambla, Pl. Catalunya, shops, restaurants, convenience stores etc etc. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. My room was small, but this is Europe, and is to be expected. It was very clean and had AC. There are stairs, but an elevator goes part way. The area is safe. I would definitely stay here again!

Best value for money
The hotel overall was decent because we got what we paid for. It was at “point zero” of Barcelona and the price we paid was under 100€ for August. Yes it is old, it has not got lift or breakfast, but it was so clean that you could not find any dirt anywhere. Towels were changed daily and sheets every second day. I would stay there again if I return to Barcelona sometime

Centralt, hyggeligt, sødt personale
Sød betjening i receptionen meget hjælpsomme.
Ret lydt, tag evt. Ørepropper med😉
Had a "do not disturb" sign on my door , it was not respected by service.
Towels changed every day, not an option.

I booked this place thinking that they had a lift because that’s what their listing says, but was surprised to see that you need to climb flights of stairs to get to their lobby, and that is where the lift is. It was very inconvenient for us who had lots of luggages. We arrived very late at night and we were very tired so we were so disappointed with what we had to go through. The staff who was there that night kindly let us use the ramp for PWD to move our luggages and he helped carry our luggages, but the other staff the next day was the exact opposite. He did not allow us to use the ramp. He then asked if we’d like him to book us a cab and we politely declined because we were booking an Uber. When we asked if we could ask for his help to bring down our luggages, he said no. He probably was pissed that we didn’t want to take the taxi service. He even said that if we book the taxi service, the driver will go up to help us with our luggages lol. So I think that because we declined, he didn’t want to help us.
As for the room, it is very basic but a bit spacious. We only stayed for one night so can’t say much. Overall, we did not have a good stay. This may be okay for backpackers but definitely not for travellers with luggages. I just hope the hotel updates their description about the lift because it’s very deceiving.

Hotel céntrico y cómodo
Hotel Pelayo está muy céntrico y cerca de estaciones de metro, restaurantes, cafeterías y muchas otras atracciones. El personal fue muy amable y siempre tenían una recomendación que dar ante cualquier duda. La cama era cómoda y la habitación cumplía con las expectativas. Lo único es que para llegar al hotel tienes que subir un set de escaleras que con maletas pesadas o con varias maletas se hace tedioso antes de llegar al elevador. Sin duda me volvería a hospedar pero sin tanto equipaje.
