Where Is Seventy Hotel Located?

Seventy Hotel is located in the Eixample, one of my favorite districts in Barcelona, famous for its elegant architecture and wide avenues. It’s located a short walk away from Casa Milà (La Pedrera) and Casa Batlló, two of Gaudí’s most iconic creations.

This location felt one of the safest and most convenient areas to stay in. You can easily walk to nearby attractions, cafes, and the area feels lively yet calm, even at night.

What’s the Vibe at Seventy Hotel Barcelona?

From the moment we walked in, we could tell this wasn’t your typical city hotel. The lobby’s elegant and calming fragrance immediately caught our attention.

The design feels warm and sophisticated, with walls covered in bookshelves full of colorful books, a white spiral staircase right at the entrance, bright white walls, and wood floors that make the space feel inviting.

Here’s what you can expect from the overall vibe:

  • Upscale but not intimidating: It feels refined without being overly formal.
  • Lively yet calm: The lobby often has locals stopping by for a drink or meal, which gives it a nice community energy feel rather than being just for hotel guests.
  • Adult-oriented atmosphere: While not officially adults-only, most guests we saw were couples or solo travelers.

What Are the Rooms Like at Seventy Hotel?

Our stay was in a Patio View Room, which came with a king-size bed and a view of the interior courtyard. It was surprisingly spacious, something you don’t always find in Barcelona’s city hotels.

Even though our view faced the interior patio, we actually loved it. You can see small balconies with locals’ laundry hanging, which gives you a glimpse of authentic Barcelona life right from your window.

Here’s what stood out during our stay:

  • Spacious layout: A long hallway leads into the main room, lined with mirrors that make the space feel even bigger.
  • Smart details:
  • Automatic blackout shades
  • Heated towel rack in the bathroom
  • Closet lights that turn on when opened
  • Amenities included:
  • Nespresso and a tea maker
  • Mini fridge with drinks and snacks (for purchase)
  • Hairdryer and hair straightener
  • Bathroom highlights:
  • Marble finishes and large mirrors
  • Complimentary essentials like toothbrush, lotion, and high-quality toiletries

How Was the Spa Experience?

Overall, the spa was one of the highlights of our Seventy Hotel Barcelona review, because it provided the perfect opportunity to unwind. The moment you walk in, the lighting softens, the music slows, and the calm atmosphere sets the tone for a restful experience.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Complimentary access: Guests receive 30 minutes of access to the dry sauna, steam room, and hydromassage pool.
  • Reservation required: You’ll need to book a time slot in advance.
  • Atmosphere: The design is intimate, with dim lighting and a cozy layout that feels personal rather than public.
  • Vegan-friendly spa products: They also offer massages and facials using organic and vegan products, which is a big plus for us since we always appreciate brands and hotels that align with our plant-based lifestyle.

Pro Tip: Book spa access when you check in, because time slots can fill up quickly, especially in the evening.

Rooftop & Pool

The hotel also has a rooftop pool with peaceful city views. When we visited in May, the water was a bit too cold to swim, but we still put on our swimsuits to enjoy the sunshine and get a good dose of vitamin D before heading home.

What really surprised us was the view, from the rooftop, that you can actually see Gaudí’s Sagrada Família in the distance. We weren’t expecting that at all, especially since the hotel doesn’t mention it anywhere. It truly felt like a hidden gem.

Is Seventy Hotel Barcelona Worth It?

Yes, Seventy Hotel sits right at the sweet spot of affordable luxury. You get the comfort and attention to detail of a five-star property at a more approachable price.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • Average price: We paid around $350 per night in May, but during the low season (January to March), rates drop to about $250 per night.
  • Cleanliness: Every area, from the lobby to the rooms, was spotless.
  • Service: The staff handled everything smoothly, including booking our taxi at checkout, so we didn’t have to wait or manage our luggage.

Who Is Seventy Hotel Barcelona Best For?

  • Couples looking for a peaceful and stylish stay
  • Travelers ending or starting a Mediterranean cruise
  • Anyone who appreciates spa amenities and great design

Would I Stay Here Again?

Definitely, Seventy Hotel set a new standard for us when it comes to boutique stays. The attention to detail, relaxing spa, and overall sense of care made it the perfect way to end our Mediterranean cruise trip.

The only small downside was the limited vegan food options on the bar menu. However, this wasn’t a big issue since there are several vegan-friendly restaurants nearby, which we covered in the post on where to eat vegan in Barcelona.

In short, Seventy Hotel isn’t just a place to stay, it’s a relaxing experience that combines modern design, thoughtful service, and calm energy in one of Barcelona’s most beautiful neighborhoods.
