Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Ilunion Almirante Hotel from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Ilunion Almirante enjoys a fantastic location, a short walk from attractions like the Cathedral and the Gothic Quarter, and about 10 minutes from Rambla. Many guests appreciate being greeted with a complimentary glass of cava upon arrival and the free sweets in the lobby. The rooms on the upper floors offer great views, sometimes encompassing the port and Mount Tibidabo; though some travelers found the rooms on the smaller side. The breakfast receives high marks for its variety and quality.
