Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Olivia Plaza Hotel boasts a superb location right on Placa de Catalunya, placing guests within easy walking distance of many attractions and steps away from shops. Many have enjoyed spacious rooms, and some were upgraded to rooms with amazing views of the town square through floor-to-ceiling windows, complete with both a shower and an amazing tub; a few guests, however, have noted that some rooms have windows that cannot be opened. The breakfast gets high marks from many, though some found the breakfast area crowded, adding up to a great value, especially considering the central location.
