“Hotel Medinaceli, reopening in 2025, occupies a palace of unique architectural note within Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. The location impresses, placing guests near both the waterfront and cultural landmarks. I especially note the larger rooms, some featuring balconies, offering a distinctive sense of place amid the city's bustle.”
