Hotel description
Axel Hotel is a liberal and tolerant place where everyone is welcome irrespective of their sexual orientation. We welcome, respect and value anyone who comes here without prejudice. Opened on July 1, 2003, Axel Hotel Barcelona is the first hotel of the Axel Hotels chain and the first designer hotel directed toward the gay community. After three years of operation, we can say with pride that the Axel Hotel Barcelona has signified style and has become the world standard for gay accommodations.
From the beginning, the team has taken care of the minutest details. Without forgetting its architecture and design: the Axel Hotel Barcelona was constructed in a remodelled building from the end of the 19th century, conserving its fade and its spectacular acid-etched windows from the first modernist period. Its interior spaces, totally restored, were conceived such that design and comfort are united in a warm atmosphere. Furnishings from Vitra, Kartell and Swan, fabrics from Kenzo, the Axel mosaic and the lighted photograph boxes by Emilio Lekuona shape the exclusive Axel universe. The hotel offers Rooms with personality and careful design.
Location
From the beginning, the team has taken care of the minutest details. First of all, its location in Gayxample, the heart of the Barcelona gay atmosphere, 10 minutes from the most stylish places in the city, el Borne and the Casco Antiguo.

"It was a very pleasant experience. The furniture in the room was ok. The deb and pillows VERY COMFORTABLE. The bathroom had a funny noise from the pipes. The pool is rather small. it would have been better to have a larger jacuzzi/sauna area instead."

"Seul point négatif : le "tout payant" au niveau télé, musique etc ... Les chaines de bases et les radios sont habituellement gratuites"
LANCON J. - France - 02-Jul-09 -
"Me quedé 4 días en total. 2 de ellos, la habitación fue limpiada a las 16:00. No desayuné en el hotel porque me pareció carisimo. El staff podría ser mucho más amable. En la teraza, todo estaba desordenado y nadie se ocupaba de recoger toallas y vasos/copas utilizados. Las puertas de las habitaciones no aislan el ruido del pasillo y es muy dificil dormir (eso si, el hotel provee tapones)"

"Great hotel great stuff had the best time there..."
