CASAGRAND

Outstanding Stay... skip everything else and just come here Just spent a week in Barcelona staying at the Casagrand Luxury Suites with my family celebrating a milestone birthday.

First: Our group. 3 couples and a single woman. Birthday boy turned 40, and included parents who are in their 70's. Others were somewhere in the middle, but all experienced travelers who have generally high standards for lodging.

First: Our group. 3 couples and a single woman. Birthday boy turned 40, and included parents who are in their 70's. Others were somewhere in the middle, but all experienced travelers who have generally high standards for lodging.

Second: Our room: Principal Floor, Room 1 (only room on the floor). 5 beds, 4 baths.

Location: I sorta did zero research into Barcelona before booking or arriving on site, so I didn't know what I was walking in to. After a week, I can tell you that this place is right smack in the middle of everything - open google maps and type in what you want to go to - seems like everything is a kilometer in any given direction, so it couldn't be more centralized if it wanted to. There is a lovely walking district across the street for breakfast (Bo Pan was great!), Starbucks if needed. Fantastic restaurants such as Catalona Cerveza as recommended by Sasha at the front desk - fantastic tapas. There is a pharmacy next door, and several small grocery stores on the next block if you decide you need some supplies, or want to make dinner in the unit as we chose to do one night. One block over is the high rent district if you feel the need to buy a Prada bag or Channel scarf or whatever people buy in those places.

The Unit: It seems that all the units are close in spec, but not identical like a hotel would be - ours didn't match the pictures in terms of exact layout, but style and general layout was close enough. Bright white walls, minimalistic and stylish appointments such as artwork and decor that are calming and make you feel like you're staying someplace special. Floors throughout are wide planked wood (guessing an engineered floor, but not a cheap laminate). The building was built like a tank - very solid construction and therefore sound doesn't travel through walls, etc. Appliances are all modern and top notch, as are cabinets, plumbing fixtures, etc. The unit is laid out as a long hall, with the bedrooms in a row. I never heard anything from any of the rooms, despite my parents blaring CNBC in the next room. Someone did say they heard someone snoring one night, but I find that hard to believe. The windows are well sealed - we heard street noise for the first two nights, and then I realized that my husband neglected to properly latch the window - once that was done, it was virtually silent except for the occasional siren.

Bathrooms came with daily refresh of Molton Brown products, luxurious towels, and a basic cleaning. The beds are very comfortable with fantastic sheets and pillows.

The Staff: This is what makes this place so awesome. There is a 24/7 front desk that is manned by one staff member across 3 shifts. You could call down at any time and request things like refreshed bottled water (as we frequently did), taxis (though they could always be hailed right from the street, but with a larger group it was easier at times to have them just come on request), or recommendations for dinner or things to do. We especially enjoyed working with Sasha and Minerva who were always willing to answer our questions or help us out. Sasha insisted that we always call her on the phone rather then coming to the lobby, but we enjoyed her company so much we would often just go down stairs and surround the desk and throw questions at her. The cleaning crew were often like ninjas - we didn't see them, but we'd come back and the place would be all picked-up and reset. Each night, another gentlemen would come back to get us more water. Since there are only a handful of units in the building, the service is very personal - after a day, the staff knows who everyone is, and you build a true rapport with them. They learn your preferences and what you like, and they're able to provide better service as a result.

In my professional life, I visit a lot of 5-star properties, mostly in the US, and I can say that this place stacks up. It's all the benefits of a hotel, but with the freedom and space of an airbnb - couldn't have chosen a better place to go with my family and friends. If I return to Barcelona, no doubt this is where I'll stay. –

Superb accommodation Casagrand was beautiful,spacious and lovely. We were surprised at how big the apartment was!!

The rooms are grand and tastefully appointed, the pool and surrounds were gorgeous and the staff so helpful and professional. We were overwhelmed with all the luxury extras such as welcome cake , fresh water , free refreshments, fruit and attentive staff.

All we can say is wow! The flats are expansive and furnished luxuriously. Service is warm and professional. There is even a small pool, sauna and gym. Best way to stay in Barcelona with a large group.

Wonderful Holiday Stay We, a group of 5 adults and 3 teens, stayed here over the Christmas holidays. We found the staff to be extremely helpful with respect to providing extra water and towels upon request or calling two taxis at any given time. They were very accommodating (late check out) and welcoming (some cake upon arrival).

We found the staff to be extremely helpful with respect to providing extra water and towels upon request or calling two taxis at any given time. They were very accommodating (late check out) and welcoming (some cake upon arrival).

We found the beds and pillows very comfortable. You have to ask for extra towels for your hair or washcloths, but they are gladly provided. We utilized the kitchen one night; we had what we needed. We ran through our coffee stash, but there is a lovely little grocery around the corner (a great bakery is around the corner, too, and a pharmacy is next door should you need it). We enjoyed our views (we had the 5th floor apartment), but we recommend ear plugs because we could hear the little one next door from time to time (however, I am fairly convinced I would have heard her if I were in a tank - LOL). Our only "complaint," such that it is, is the apartment ran a tad warm for our liking. Opening the windows a bit solved that issue readily, however. Otherwise, we appreciated the spaciousness of the apartment very much.

We utilized the washer and dryer (and appreciated that instructions were available in English). Note that you buy laundry pods from the front desk for 1E a piece.

We have used AirBnb and VRBO all over Europe, the US, and the Caribbean.

We definitely recommend these apartments. –

Fantastic! Loved everything about the hotel, staff and location! The apartment is beautiful and huge. We were surprised how large the apartment is and how well it is decorated and stocked. The staff were fantastic and could not have been more accommodating and friendly. The showers, towels, and linens are top notch and the beds are really comfortable. The location is perfect. I cannot say enough great things about this hotel.

Will be back ! The name of the Hotel says it all, but it was more than we expected ! The staff, the Apartment, the surroundings were excellent ! We were so delighted, and all 7 of the family group really enjoyed the stay. The 4 bedroom suite was very well equipped, clean, etc.. My husband and I live in Spain, and we will definitely stay at Casagrand the next time we visit Barcelona.... +The name of the Hotel says it all, but it was more than we expected !

Perfect Rooms with Terrific Service We stayed at Casagrand for two nights in the Summum Suite, which can house 9 people at maximum capacity, sort of an overkill for our group of 4. The first thing you nitice about the suite itself is how spacious it is. Then you notice the individual features, like separate thermostats for each room, the kitchen which probably has every tool you need and then some, and so on.

The first thing you nitice about the suite itself is how spacious it is. Then you notice the individual features, like separate thermostats for each room, the kitchen which probably has every tool you need and then some, and so on. The rooms are remarkably clean and well kept, and they stayed that way for the remainder of our trip. The rooftop pool and the sauna provide nice accents for the stay.

While the hardware of the property is excellent, the people of Casagrand are also superb. They will help you with standard concierge tasks like finding amazing restaurants and calling taxis. They will also go beyond their duty and help you track that phone you left on the taxi to the airport.

The superb location doesn't even require an explanation. Look at the map!

All in all, a great place to stay, and with these prices, I do not see a reason not to choose Casagrand for your next group trip to Barcelona. –

Chic & Luxurious Apartment in Eixample District This apartment exceeded all our expectations.

I can 100% recommend this luxury apartment to any families or large groups wanting a luxury stay in Barcelona.

Our family of 8 adults and 3 children stayed at the apartment for the week. The apartment is beautifully decorated throughout, the rooms are large and fully equipped. Never did we feel "on top of one another".

Best place in Barcelona for groups! This could be the best place for groups in Barcelona. Location: Central with easy access to anywhere in Barcelona yet not in the crowded touristy area. Flat: very spacious +200sqm with 5 rooms (summum suite), very clean, high quality furnishing and amenities. Staff: Always available, accommodating and nice, Facilities: small gym with a rooftop terrace and plunge pool! Highly recommended for a group of at least 4 people.

Totally blown away What a great place! Totally blown away by the size, luxury and quality of the apartment, and the service from the staff. We were visiting Barcelona for half term with kids and a granny, and the apartment was perfect both as a base and for hanging out. Kids loved it (not least the chance to watch Netflix in their downtime), as well as the adults. Casa... +What a great place! Totally blown away by the size, luxury and quality of the apartment, and the service from the staff. We were visiting Barcelona for half term with kids and a granny, and the apartment was perfect both as a base and for hanging out. Kids loved it (not least the chance to watch Netflix in their downtime), as well as the adults. Casa Mila / La Pedrera is only a short walk, and we even walked to the Sagrada Familia (c. 25 mins). With the Metro close by, it's easy to get down to La Rambla / across the city. The staff at the front desk were very helpful and gave us great advice on local restaurants (some nice Tapas and a good Italian close by). The rooms were spacious and high quality, with nice touches like Molton Brown products, and even the free tea, coffee and cake on arrival was appreciated! Can't recommend enough. Perfect for a stay in Barcelona. –

Awesome place The luxury apartment is truly luxury. The staff was awesome and the apartment has many amenities, was clean and much larger than anticipated. If we go back to Barcelona in the future we will definitely stay here.

4 wonderful days at Casagrand We rented the 4 br suite, it has 2 master suites with bathroom ( shower and tub) 2 other br share a bath. Beautifully decorated, nice balcony off the living room. kitchen is accommodating. Clothes washer and dryer came in handy.

We arrived on an early morning flight , we were able to drop off our luggage without any problems. The front desk clerk was friendly and made us feel welcomed. When we came back after 4 pm , or luggage was already in our apartment. We received maps of Barcelona along with metro info and restaurant suggestions from the receptionist. All 7 of us loved the apartment and enjoyed our stay there. Plenty of cafes and restaurants within minutes of walking distance from the apartment. highly recommend this place. The rooftop lounging area is great. Thanks to everyone at Casagrand for making our stay in Barcelona memorable. –

The apartment was clean & luxurious and the staff very friendly when needed. Great for groups looking for a central location and plenty of communal space to be in (great kitchen, dining and lounge areas). Nice touch to have some water, milk and juice on arrival. Only negative if picking is the size of the rooftop terrace pool - very small but the beach / harbour wasn’t too far a walk (40 mins) –

Our apartment had five bedrooms, also it had a kitchen and a living room. From our windows we could see mountains and also Avinguda Diagonal street. All rooms were full of light, the apartment looked very cool and modern. There was no breakfast or other food at the apartment because it isn’t a hotel, but around there a lot of places to eat –

Great for large families What a wonderful apartment! Great location close to metro and walking distance to many sights. The rooms are clean, spacious, quiet, and certainly deserving of the term "luxury." Excellent facilities and friendly staff. Definitely would stay here again. More
