The area in which the Catalonia Park Güell hotel is located is very hilly, though there are good bus connections and the metro is a 7 minute downhill walk away (from your hotel). The metro stop Vallcarca is 4 stops away from the centre of the city.
This part of Gràcia is quiet and residential, however there is a bank just down the hill and once you get to the metro, the whole of that street is full of local cafes, restaurants as well as pharmacies, newsagents and food markets. Park Güell is close and is a main attraction in Barcelona, and downtown Gràcia also has some beautiful architecture.

In a nutshell
The Catalonia Park Güell hotel is perfectly comfortable and pleasant. You won't really feel like you're in Barcelona, but the city centre is a short metro ride away, and as a consequence the hotel rates are more competitive than staying in a hotel in the heart of the city centre.
