” I was really excited to be visiting Borneta and discovering more about the Miiro group especially after researching and hearing about this new opening. Upon arrival I was taken back by how absolutely gorgeous and so beautifully decorated the hotel from the outside to the the entryway and reception. Aesthetically this is no doubt one of the nicest hotel I’ve visited in Barcelona so far and I love how meticulous Miiro have been with the decor, the attention to detail is truly impressive, the hotel has a boutique-like feel and through the decor and ambience they’ve managed to achieve a really comfortable and homely feel throughout this hotel.” – Taija (Editor)
