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

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in an excellent location—you can reach restaurants, the cathedral, shops, and entertainment within minutes. The property is beautiful and very well maintained, and the service was outstanding. Our room was spacious and comfortable, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was exceptional with plenty of space. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and I would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!"

Rialto

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was in an excellent location. The breakfast was great with lots of options. Very clean and modern, updated rooms and bathrooms. Staff were all so welcoming, friendly and helpful. Beds were a little hard but common in Europe. Would definitely recommend and stay here again."

Olivia Balmes Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing Hotel has the train and bus routes you’ll use everyday of the trip! If you want to walk you can most certainly do that as well it is placed very close to the main sites. The staff are super friendly and welcoming and willing to help you anyway they can. One thing that stood out was from all the walking I personally did I had cut I wanted to cover I asked the front desk for some band aids and they checked their Medical Kit but couldn’t find anything. I said it’s okay no worries however the front desk attendant said give her 3 minute’s and she rushed to I assume the worker’s area and got me band aids from her own personal kit. It’s small things such as this, that make a hotel stand out above the rest. Great hotel I recommend this as an option for anyone visiting Barcelona!"

Sixties Ramblas

8/10 Good

"Had a lovely stay at Sixties hotel. Good selection at breakfast. There were some issues with wifi. Room was clean and bed was huge. Balcony was small but lovely. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and allowed us to leave our luggage in the morning so we could explore Barcelona on our first day."

Grand Hyatt Barcelona

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the Hyatt in Barcelona was absolutely amazing. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed and well taken care of. The concierge team, the staff who assisted me with my luggage, and everyone I interacted with throughout my stay were incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful. A special thank you to Mahamadou, who was excellent. He took the time to recommend places to visit and things to do, which really helped make my experience in Barcelona even more memorable. I only wish I could remember everyone’s name so I could personally recognize each of them, because every staff member I came into contact with contributed to making my stay wonderful. The level of hospitality was exceptional, and the team truly made my visit to Barcelona special. I would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this Hyatt to anyone visiting Barcelona. Thank you to the entire team for making my trip such a memorable one!"

Arc la Rambla

10/10 Excellent
