Room Mate Pau

About this place Room Mate Pau

Room Mate Pau is a stylish boutique hotel in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, part of the Room Mate Hotels chain that operates gay-friendly properties in several cities including a notable gay hotel in Madrid (Hotel Oscar). The Pau is gay-friendly rather than gay-specific — the chain's brand is design-led, welcoming, and not defined by sexual orientation in the way the Axel brand is. The Gothic Quarter location puts it within walking distance of El Cangrejo, the Rambla, the Cathedral, and the Born neighbourhood; the Gayxample is a 20-minute walk or two Metro stops on the L1 line. For visitors whose Barcelona itinerary combines tourism in the old city with gay nightlife in Eixample, the Pau's location is a reasonable compromise. The design quality is high for the price point — the Room Mate brand consistently delivers good aesthetics at mid-range prices.
