Hotel Arts Barcelona

The hotel has been recently renovated and it shows—everything feels fresh, spacious, and well-maintained. I was a bit disappointed when I arrived to find that my booked sea view room had been changed to a standard room without the view, but the staff handled the situation with great care and offered immediate assistance. The room itself was still fantastic—large, clean, modern, and very comfortable. Located just a short walk from the city center, it’s easy to get around by metro. Despite the mix-up, the overall experience was excellent, and I’d definitely stay here again.

W Barcelona

Staying at W Barcelona was an absolute highlight of my trip to Barcelona. The room was fantastic—especially since I got upgraded to a higher floor, offering stunning views of the sea and city skyline. While some of the facilities show a bit of age, everything is well-maintained and still feels luxurious. The location is unbeatable—right on the beach with endless blue skies and waves just outside the door. Waking up to that view every morning was pure magic. Service was attentive and professional, and what made it even more memorable? I happened to be there when Paris Saint-Germain team checked in! The energy in the lobby was electric, and it felt like being part of something special. For anyone looking for a stylish, central, and vibrant stay in Barcelona, this hotel delivers on all fronts—highly recommended!

The Barcelona Edition

Staying at The Barcelona Edition was an absolute highlight of my trip to Barcelona. Located just steps away from Sagrada Família and within walking distance of the charming Gothic Quarter’s historic cafés and boutiques, the location is unbeatable. The area feels safe and vibrant, making it perfect for exploring on foot. The room itself was spacious with a stunning view—true to Edition’s signature style. The bedding was luxurious, as expected, and the bathroom featured a large tub, though the water level seemed inconsistent when filling. High-quality coffee maker and sound system were included, plus daily complimentary pastries added a lovely touch. Breakfast was served à la carte with excellent quality and presentation—fresh, well-prepared, and satisfying. The staff went above and beyond; when I mentioned confusion about the room type, they promptly upgraded me to a suite with a bathtub without hesitation. A small downside: the gym is quite compact, windowless, and not available 24/7—could be improved. Despite that, the overall experience was exceptional. If you're visiting Barcelona, this hotel delivers a premium urban stay with style, comfort, and thoughtful service—highly recommended.

Four Points by Sheraton Barcelona Diagonal

We arrived earlier than check-in time and had to wait a bit, but the hotel went above and beyond by upgrading us to a better room—so thoughtful! The view from our window was directly onto Sagrada Família, and the sight of the iconic basilica from the balcony every morning was absolutely breathtaking. Right nearby is a large supermarket for essentials, and there are tons of dining options within walking distance—whether you're craving tapas, international cuisine, or just a quick bite, it's all here. Public transport is super convenient; we were in the heart of Barcelona in under 10 minutes via metro. With such a stunning view, great location, and excellent service, this stay was worth every penny. Definitely coming back.

Moxy Barcelona

I absolutely loved staying at Moxy Barcelona! The room layout was a standout feature—having the bed positioned at both ends of the room made it perfect for traveling with friends; we could each have our own space without any disruption. It's such a thoughtful design that you don’t often see in other hotels. The location is excellent, just a short metro ride from the heart of Barcelona. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The only minor note is that breakfast was the same menu for all four days—we enjoyed the food, but variety would’ve been nice. Overall, this hotel offers a fun, modern vibe with great value. I’d definitely return and recommend it to anyone looking for a cool, lively stay in the city.
