Our stay was good. Friendly service attendants. The location was good. The room however was a too small for me my husband and my adult son. Within walking distance to the beach.

Hotel Canton is a hidden gem (literally!). Barcelona has been the most expensive city to stay in on our trip so far, but this location was absolutely perfect. If you are looking for an affordable hotel that is right where the action is, this is the place.

6/10

Fantastic location, 2 blocks from waterfront and all of ramblas and gothic quarter walkable. Serviceable and worth the money. I found the beds hard and wish it had a bidet like most hotels. We had a necklace snatch attempt in the doorway and the front desk seemed not to care. But petty street crime Ina tourist district is just a thing

1-night trip

8/10

Property is in a really great location, at the doorstep of rambla and not far at all from the Port. A little disappointed with the rooms, noticed ants crawling around quite a few places and there didn't seem to be much air ventilation. Aside from that, hotel was fairly okay for the location it was in.
2-night trip

The location wasn't bad but the hotel is old and dated. Beds and bathroom was clean but floors were not as clean.

Kind of hard to find as taxis and Ubers drop you off a short distance away. But so much to see and do within walking distance
2-night trip

8/10

The reception area is a bit tired & when we were checking in this couple were complaining about damp in their room (dealt with well & they were moved straight away) so I was a bit concerned going into our room but it was spotless. Shower was excellent & it was very clean. Location of hotel is good with a taxi rank really close by.
