What I liked:
“Excellent location near the Placa Cataluna.
Beautiful bar and lounge area.
Excellent Housekeeping.”
What the hotel could do better:
“We stayed at the Pulitzer at the beginning of March.
Our standard room was very small and way too hot.
We were unable to change the room's thermostat and
we brought the heat issue to the management's attention.
We were told they would adjust the central thermostat. The
room remained hot for the three nights we were there and
we slept with the windows opened - very noisy.”

What I liked:
“Like the ambiance and the main areas were really chilled to be in.Rooms were not huge but did not expect much for a city hotel at that price.Location was great as really central but quite so did not feel noisy.Staff really hospitable and very helpful.”
What the hotel could do better:
“Rooms were stylish but because they were dark wood they scratched easily so gave apperance of being a bit scuffed but did not detract from overrall feel of a well maintained hotel.”

What I liked:
“Public Facilities:
The bar downstairs has a lovely atmosphere; really relaxed and perfect for a drink before you go out to dinner. There is also free wireless internet so it is great to sit downstairs, have a coffee and research before heading out to sightsee.
Location:
The location of the pulizter was also perfect for sightseeing. Right in between the eixample and gothic quarter region. You can walk everywhere. The street is is on is also nice and quiet, unlike many of the other hotels which can be quite noisy.
Service:
The service was friendly and professional. On the second last day my finance got really sick, and we asked to leave early. They were incredibly kind and did not charge us a cancellation fee. This was the nicest part to our experience in the hotel.”
What the hotel could do better:
“Gym:
They claimed they have gym facilities, but this is a gym that is a 10 minute walk from hotel, and is an independent gym. The plus side however is that the gym was a proper gym, not a small hotel gym with one treadmill. The frustrating part is the so called 5 minute walk, especially when you are not sure where you are going.
Rooms:
Our first room was aweful, the view was of a plastic roof and the back of a brick building. I went to have a shower and the water was cold!! We asked to move rooms, and finally I was able to have a hot shower. The rooms themselves are fine, but cheaply produced. So there are a lot of scuffs and marks on the furniture which makes it look old and dated. They claim the latest in technology like flat screen TV's, but these are the smallest TV's I have ever seen. The channel options were also limited, and no movies available. Either way with a screen so small & minimal channel options, there is no point in watching the TV. Finally they gave us twin beds pushed together in both rooms, which was not great for my fiance and I. They did not make the bed as a double either, so we were literally separated.
I will say however the size of the rooms are decent. I read that many people stated that the rooms were tiny, comparatively I would say for a european hotel the standard room was a very decent size.”

What I liked:
“From the moment the taxi pulled up to the hotel to my check-out I was in love with this hotel. Clean, stylish and understated - it was exactly what I hoped it would be. The staff was impeccable! The rooms lovely and the service pristine. I can't say enough how much staying at The Pulitzer enhanced my visit to Barcelona. Ideal location, quiet street and an inviting lobby bar. I will definitely stay at The Pulitzer the next time I'm in Barcelona.”
What the hotel could do better:
“My expectations were not let down so I don't really have anything to dislike about the hotel.”
