Nestled between the Mediterranean coast and the colossal Montserrat, Barcelona's deep historical roots stretch through the ruins dotting the city and the local culture and Catalan language. You'll feel you're traveling through time, whether you're watching popular events such as the colles castelleres (human pyramids) and sardanes dances, or walking narrow, maze-like streets and broader boulevards. Stroll from the Gothic Quarter through Passeig de Gracia, where Roman ruins, Gothic cathedrals, and remnants of the Spanish Golden Age and the Civil War stand side by side with surreal and modernist structures by Gaudí and Domènech i Montaner. Stop at any of the numerous restaurant terraces and enjoy traditional calçots and botifarra sausages, flavor-packed tapas, and fresh seafood. At day's end, treat yourself to a refreshing cocktail in one of the many Chirringuitos (beach bars) along the golden beaches embracing the sea.

There are certain pleasures that are only available to those that stay at the Hotel Colón. For example, waking up early in the morning, crossing over to the window, pulling aside the curtains, and seeing the image of the Barcelona Cathedral bathed in the sun’s first rays. It’s an image that will fill you with energy throughout the whole day! Many of our 129 rooms in the hotel offer this privilege, in addition to amenities such as air-conditioning, telephone, LCD television with international channels, high-speed Internet, safety deposit box, a well-stocked mini-bar, and the finishing touches of a 4 star hotel. If you are traveling for leisure, after a nice shower and a full breakfast, you’ll find it convenient to have the main tourist attractions within walking distance. If you are traveling for professional reasons, having two ample lounges at your disposal offers you infinite options for any event, convention, business meeting, or celebration. In both cases, it’s good to know that, for lunch or dinner, you can depend on the excellent service at the Cathedral 1951 restaurant. All of these reasons make a stay at the Hotel Colón unforgettable. What more can you ask of a hotel?
Want a hotel that is priced correctly and a gem. Then Colon is the place in the heart of old Barcelona and with in walking distance to everything you ever want. The help is fantastic and their recommendations are the best I have ever had at a hotel.

Wow, I just had the most amazing stay at the W Barcelona. I was initially apprehensive as the night before I was about to leave, I noticed a flurry of one and two star reviews on Tripadvisor. I then called the W and their Guest Relations was kind enough to spend 10 mins with me on the phone (bear in mind I had already paid and couldn't cancel) as I asked what was true from those reviews and what wasn't. The reviews there aren't entirely truthful. For example, one says the public are allowed into the pool area. Well, there are two pools, the Wet Deck and the Sun Deck for hotel guests only. This is the majority of the area. There's also a pretty large area without a pool that the public can rent for a pretty large fee. IN the entire week I was there, absolutely no issue with the public entering and taking sun beds or space that hotel guests could not get. Now that's out of the way, let's get to the stay itself. I stayed for a week from the end of may to the end of the first week in June. I am a Marriott Gold member and on arrival I was upgraded to a Wonderful room on the 11th floor. Paulo on check in was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, comfortable, clean and quiet. I slept well in the bed and the rain shower was bliss after a day in the sun. Throughout the week, little gifts were left in the room like multiple bottles of water, a box of chocolates, Innocent smoothies and a cake the day before I was to check out. Jordi gave me some great tips when I asked how to maximise my fun at the hotel. I spent two full days by the pool and numerous mornings. The food is pricey but it's decent and I was happy to pay for not having to move and enjoy the sun. I want to give a huge thanks to Lucas, Charlotte, Charleen and Vanessa who were all very friendly, attentive and fun to be around. Great servers who made the times by the pool that much better. The gym is well equipped which is something I'm not used to in even high end 5 star hotels. A good free weights section, running machines and Technogym equipment. All I care about is Swiss Balls and free weights section so it suited me just find. Thinking about it now, I am already planning when I can go back next year. Thank you W staff for making it one to remember.

I have spent hours trying to reconcile an error on my folio. I suggest taking a photo of any signed billing to your room. I have been on phone with Hilton [email protected] and some representatives understand problem but can't fix it. On phone with Hilton Diagonal and representative asked if I wanted to speak with manager after I balked on the overcharge and waited for no one to appear. This was while guest.correspondence was on phone with me. I have disputed the charge with my Bank.

The hotel is an excellent area (Les Corts) with every amenity in close proximity (shops, restaurants, etc.) Public transportation to the "touristy area" of the gothic quarter is very easy with the Maria-Christina Metro station nearby. Staff at the hotel is great. Interactions with Monica (check-in) and Luis Enrique (housekeeping) were both excellent. The room was clean and comfortable.

Architecture that staircases the sky; a beacon watching over an energetic cityscape-Melia Barcelona Sky hotel offers a new interpretation to contemporary design, international cuisine, and the urban experience; fusing personal and professional into one emblematic hotel!
The reception staff are very welcoming. The pool area is very chilled, with good music playing and very friendly staff! The room had a very large window which wrapped around giving great views! The bed was also comfortable and the bathroom very nice, with separate walk in shower and a bath! Would definitely visit again!

A Mediterranean surrounding, Avant-garde Art and a soft sea Breeze envelope the privileged facilities at the Eurostars Grand Marina Hotel ***** GL. It is located in the World Trade Centre - leisure and business Complex in the middle of Barcelona's Old Harbour. The colourful Ramblas street and the magic of the Gothic Quarter make the perfect match for a unique feeling which is to be experienced from any of the eight floors of our magnificent Hotel. Both businessmen & women and leisure tourists will find in the Eurostars Grand Marina Hotel a wonderful place to enjoy a perfect stay, surrounded by every possible amenity and comfort. An excellent communications network that connects the Hotel to the Old Town and to the Financial District simply adds that little extra to a truly luxurious offer.
We were staying prior to a cruise, and after reading some of the reviews I was nervous, I did contact the hotel to talk about my concerns. However I shouldn't have worried we had the most fantastic stay. I don't think I could have picked a better hotel in both location and service, the staff were fantastic very friendly and nothing was to much trouble. Breakfast well what can I say one of the best breakfast's I have ever had it was a buffet style but they had so many options the food quality was high. We had a drink in the bar which was reasonably priced and again the staff were really helpful. Our room we had a suite which looked out over the city wow, it had a rood terrace which we loved and were we going onto a cruise and literally woke up in the morning almost being able to touch the ship. I guess I would agree with some that the rooms are somewhat dated however they were clean and fresh and it didn't impact our stay. I would totally recommend this hotel if you are off on a cruise particularly if you are on a Virgin cruise as she docked next door. To round up the hotel is in a great position a short walk to a shopping centre with shops and restaurants and about a 10 min walk from the main shopping area La Rambla. The staff are amazing and the breakfast is a must. I was worried prior to going because of some of the reviews however I am glad that I ignored them and booked we weren't disappointed at all we loved our stay.
