Scene
SImple hotel housed in historic building suitable for all sorts of unfussy travelers
While Barcelona has lots of hip-and-trendy mid-range and upscale options, there's something to be said for utterly simple.

The hotel is housed in a historic six-story stone building with wrought iron balconies across the facade. Flags fly out front, and a white awning covers the glass front doors. Hallways have cushy sofas and chairs where guests can hang out. It's a simple hotel with few amenities, but it gets high marks for comfort and convenience. With its central location and free breakfast, it provides good value for all sorts of travelers, including couples, families, groups, individuals, and businesspeople.
