"Breakfast buffet did not disappoint. Hotel is centrally located and great to get to everything in Barcelona. Great views of the city from the rooftop pool. We ordered room service one night and the food was well-packaged and very good. Would definitely recommend."

"W Hotel Barcelona got it right. From the pool, beach and amazing staff, to the included breakfast that really had amazing food. If you just want to go from the beach to the pool, to the room; this is the place to be. The hotel makes you feel like you don't even need to go out to have fun. Drinks by the pool and beach made this great, but the staff made it amazing. They were so attentive and attention to detail and well mannered. Can't wait to get back and stay longer next time."

Barceló Sants

Barceló Sants

8/10 Good
"While the location of this property is very convenient, the room itself left a lot to be desired. There was virtually no storage or shelf space for unpacking, forcing me to live and dress entirely out of my carry-on luggage. On top of that, basic comfort items were completely missing—there wasn't even ice available. The room layout and basic guest amenities definitely need a major upgrade."

Arc la Rambla

Arc la Rambla

10/10 Excellent
"We arrived late and were so tired, the door gets locked at 7pm which is really good, you use your key card to get in-great for security and makes you feel safe. The whole place was spotless, the cleaner came every day and cleaned room, made the bed and changed towels. Great air con in room, definitely needed after a day out in the town! The bed wasn’t the best, but we’ve had much worse, all the linen and towels were so clean, they were like brand new, as was the duvet and pillows were good. We didn’t have breakfast, but did have some hot drinks from the bar on site which weren’t great. We literally used the hotel to sleep in, it was in the best spot, so central to everything, yet really quiet, we were at the back of the hotel in a small double room, but it was fine for us, we did think about upgrading, but there wasn’t any point for what we needed. Would definitely recommend, we probably wouldn’t go back to Barcelona because there’s other places we want to go, but if we did we would stay here. The only negative thing we could say is that the smoke detectors weren’t working, we were told this on arrival, it was too late to do anything about it at this point. Also, we had people arrive next door the day before we left and they were noisy, we complained to reception and it was sorted within minutes."

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
"Heritage hotel" is more common in Asia and Europe, while "historic hotel" is a term often used in the U.S. though overall the terms are quite similar. The physical building and architecture of historic hotels tend to be what's most important. For a heritage hotel, it's mainly the cultural value as well as how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Barcelona have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In Barcelona, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown.
