About
Dreamkeys Barcelona City
Dreamkeys Barcelona City is a small 12-room aparthotel set on Avenida Diagonal, one of Barcelona's main thoroughfares. The property mixes hotel services with apartment-style convenience, welcoming guests with a VIP check-in/out, concierge desk, and 24-hour security. All rooms come with air conditioning, a sitting area, and tea and coffee facilities, and many include a balcony or patio.
The self-catering setup extends to a dining table, electric kettle, and cookware in the kitchen-equipped rooms. Public parking is available on site, which is rare in this part of the city, and a paid airport shuttle can be arranged. The building is non-smoking throughout, and while pets are not allowed, the property does offer rooms adapted for disabled guests.

In brief

+

- Friendly and flexible staff — Several reviews single out the staff as kind, welcoming, accommodating, and flexible — a common thread across a broad range of ratings.

Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Very limited room count — With only 12 rooms, availability is tight and the property may feel small compared with larger hotels, which can limit on-site facilities.
- Check-in window is short — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 18:00, so you must arrive within a narrow time frame — flights or trains arriving later could be a problem unless you coordinate with staff.
- Checkout is early at 11:00 — You'll need to be out of the room by 11:00, which is earlier than many hotels, so plan your last morning accordingly.
- Pets not allowed — The property does not accept pets, so if you're travelling with a dog or cat, this won't work.
- Mixed feedback on cleanliness — Most reviews mention clean rooms, but one guest noted the bathroom could have been cleaner. It's a minor concern, but worth knowing.
