Top Barcelona Hotel Reviews

Lamaro Hotel Barcelona 5★ | Preferred Hotels & Resorts | Lifestyle Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, fantastic cathedral view, spacious room, friendly staff"

Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Give this hotel 5⭐️’s The room was beautiful the bathroom was sleek and very modern, the bed was very comfortable and the entire room was spotless. We booked at this hotel for one night as we were going on a cruise. It was our 10 year anniversary and the hotel has a unique bar/restaurant on the rooftop that overlooks The City. However we found out upon checking in the rooftop bar/ restaurant was closed for renovations. I was so disappointed as it was our actual anniversary the day we checked in. So the management sent up a lovely bottle of wine and a cheese, nuts and fruit plate with a card as well as breakfast on the hotel the following morning for the inconvenience. The breakfast was outstanding!!! Will be returning to Barcelona in 2027 and will again be booking a room at this hotel. Hopefully the rooftop bar/restaurant will be reopened. I also asked staff for directions to a store and they called a cab for me and were just all around really nice people so 5+⭐️’s for their help and pleasantness."

Barcelona Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Arc la Rambla

10/10 Excellent

"Lots of construction happening right outside. It's not their fault but be aware. Also search what happens at night at that end of la rambla. I don't judge, but I'm glad mom didn't see it"

Hotel Porta Fira

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Thank you!"

Rialto

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast - super helpful staff & wonderful location."

W Barcelona

8/10 Good

"The staff were friendly and the service overall was great. Our room was clean and spacious, with an incredibly comfortable bed, and we were particularly impressed by how completely soundproof the room was. Unfortunately, check-in and check-out were very slow. We waited over 30 minutes in the reception queue to check in, and the check-in process itself was also unnecessarily long. Breakfast was the biggest disappointment. We had the buffet all four mornings, but all drinks — including water, juice and coffee — had to be ordered via table service. Despite ordering as soon as we were seated, every morning our drinks arrived after we had already finished breakfast. It was also extremely difficult to get the staff’s attention to order anything else. There was also a private event by the pool one evening, which appeared to be a wedding. The following morning, the pool area was covered in bits of food and a shocking amount of broken glass, which was particularly concerning around a pool area. Overall, we enjoyed the room and the service was generally very good, but the poor breakfast service, cleanliness around the pool after the event, and the number of badly behaved, screaming children around the pool really let the experience down."

Barceló Raval

8/10 Good

"Excellent location. Lovely rooms. Rooftop pool is more for a dipping pool, quite small and it tends to be filled with 20 somethings not really suitable for families. Location is very central but parts of it are quite dodgy with homeless people around. The area is predominantly a muslin area. Near to metro and bus and only about half an hour by taxi from airport."

Hotel Nouvel

8/10 Good

"Centric place"

"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.
