I recently enjoyed a splendid stay at El Palace Barcelona, where the luxurious ambiance met really good service. My room was beautifully decorated and immensely comfortable, although I did find the lifts to be slow at times. The breakfast buffet was a true highlight, offering a variety of delicious options to fuel my day.
