"Nice little touch in the room was a Nespresso coffee machine with three complimentary pods of coffee, replenished daily. Extra pods were 3 Euro so take extra from home to save a little."

While I enjoyed my stay at Cotton House, I'm a bit surprised that it was the most expensive of my Barcelona hotels, even beating the EDITION. I'm not convinced that the price is worth it. However, I would consider returning for the right price. Here are my pros, neutral points, cons, and photos:

Pros:
- Upgraded many days in advance to a Cotton Room with balcony - the "Courtyard view" was really a full city view from the 6th floor as I could even the Mediterranean
- Bed was comfortable - very soft mattress, very soft and nice sheets (duh, cotton), lots of plush pillows (8 pillows on the bed), covers could be a tad thicker
- Shower pressure on the rainfall head was strong and nice
- My room did have a wall-mounted desk space
- Spacious and nice balcony with aforementioned great view
- Nice message to me written on one of the mirrors by the Gossypium team and a small box of chocolate clusters and bottle of Spanish wine
- Offered late checkout proactively - no issue with 4 PM
- Housekeeping came by to give more waters at turndown time
- Really beautiful common areas
- Elite breakfast - the offerings on the buffet were good (carrot cake, ham sandwich, cheeses - especially goat, Iberian ham), but charging 6 Euros for hot items is just stingy (the W has a full buffet with all made-to-order items included) - lattes did appear to be included as drip coffee wasn't an option - I didn't try a hot item as the buffet was enough
- Service attitudes at the front desk were nice, but pretty quiet and subdued - lots of handwriting required on their part filling out forms
- Service at breakfast was a challenge - I had to wave down servers to take an initial coffee order after 5 minutes - they all walked around but never tried to speak to me proactively
- No Internet TV OS
- Minibar refrigerator made a loud noise every time it "uncycled" the cooling (not sure of the term)
- No desk chair - had to use an ottoman or move the large arm chair over

Considering Cotton Hotel, but it states that there is an extra person charge for 12 year old or older of €60/night for Egyptian rooms. Any experience with this up charge?
