Barcelonès Luxury Hotels

"Must-Stay: Mandarin Oriental Barcelona 🏦 – The Real-Life Spanish 'Money Heist' Bank! 🏨 Located on Barcelona's famous Passeig de Gràcia, this hotel is right next to Gaudí's stunning Casa Batlló with its magnificent facade. Housed in an elegant mid-20th-century building, it was re-imagined by Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola, boasting a thoroughly modern interior that still retains the distinctive Mandarin Oriental charm. .🏦 Formerly a bank, it incorporates many elements from its past. For instance, a wall in the Banker's Bar was once part of the bank, serving as a safe deposit box area. Even more unique, their menus are presented in metal boxes like banknotes, giving it a real 'Money Heist' vibe, Barcelona style! It also doubles as a lounge for early arrivals, where you can even enjoy breakfast if it's already open. Because it was once a bank, all rooms offer a sense of security, privacy, and tranquility. Even facing the street, it becomes incredibly quiet after dark. The restaurant, lounge, and bar are all contemporary spaces, reflecting the city's artistic spirit and attitude. An absolutely superb check-in experience and service quality."

"What first surprised me about this hotel was how incredibly friendly it is towards Chinese tourists. There was even a Chinese New Year greeting card and fruit on the room table. The front desk staff wished us a Happy New Year too! The moment we walked in, a wave of happiness just washed over us. The hotel lobby is incredibly stylish, well-designed, and has a grand, trendy feel to it. I really loved the many thoughtful design details inside the room. The embroidery on the slippers was very intricate, as were the bathrobes, which featured many embroidered butterflies. The hotel also has a dedicated area in the room for makeup and hair drying, which I absolutely adored – and the mirror is an irregularly shaped design, very beautiful. Even the mineral water bottles were beautifully designed. This hotel just emanates happiness everywhere you look. The hotel environment fully meets five-star standards, but there are a few small details that could be improved. For example, the showerhead sprays water in a chaotic way and hasn't been fixed, and the water pressure is quite low, making showering a bit uncomfortable. Also, the hotel doesn't seem to have solutions for certain guest requests. For instance, I wanted to heat up some food I brought back from outside, and the hotel couldn't accommodate. I believe that for a five-star standard, they should consider and properly address customer needs."

"Extremely satisfied!!! After staying in hotels in Germany and Austria, it wasn't until I arrived at Hyatt that I felt like I was back in a proper hotel. A taxi from T1 is about 21 euros, which is convenient for early morning or late-night flights. The hotel is very quiet, and the facilities are new. The hot shower was incredibly comfortable. The front desk staff were polite and patient, making for a fantastic experience."

"From the moment I stepped into the hotel, from the greeter at the door, front desk staff, and lobby manager to the restaurant and bar, and room service, every single staff member greeted me with a smile and offered warm, attentive service. This truly showcased the quality of an established five-star hotel. While the furniture, bathroom facilities, and amenities in the room were indeed a bit dated, which is common in many older European hotels, the professional, warm, and thoughtful service completely made up for these shortcomings. The breakfast, once rated as the best in Europe, certainly lived up to its reputation. The rooftop bar offers a fantastic view of the Sagrada Familia. The hotel's location is superb, right in the middle of Passeig de Gràcia, surrounded by various restaurants, bars, and convenience stores. The room was spacious, and the bedding was comfortable. Facing away from the main street, it was incredibly quiet, and it even had a universal adapter. This is definitely one of the best choices for a trip to Barcelona."

"Overall, my stay was very pleasant. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, with restaurants, attractions, and the subway all within walking distance, making getting around a breeze. The front desk staff were friendly, and both check-in and check-out were very efficient. The hotel also offers complimentary luggage storage, which is a huge plus for early arrivals or late flights, as you don't have to drag your bags everywhere. The room itself was clean and tidy, the bed was comfortable, and the soundproofing was good, ensuring a quiet stay. All the facilities were well-maintained. Both the hotel's common areas and rooms have a modern feel, and I was quite satisfied with my experience. The only thing I think could be improved is the bathroom design. The bathroom door is made of frosted glass, which, while providing some cover, still allows you to see silhouettes and movements from the bedroom. The privacy isn't as good as one might expect. This might not be a big issue for couples, but it could be a bit awkward if you're staying with friends or family. I hope the hotel considers improving the bathroom's privacy in the future."

"This hotel is excellent, breakfast healthy and good, location convenient to all places. We'll stay this hotel again if we come back to Bacelona again."

"The hotel's cleanliness, ambiance, and facilities are all excellent, and the rooms are comfortable. However, what was extremely disappointing was the hotel's handling of late checkout. Although we were only about an hour and a half past the normal checkout time and were prepared to pay a fee, we were charged 95 Euros for an extension until only 2 PM. This price seems highly unreasonable, both in terms of the standard charge and the actual service received. What's even more regrettable is the hotel's lack of flexibility, especially given its high room rates and brand positioning. A 95 Euro charge for such a short extension felt more like an attempt to generate additional revenue. While the hotel's physical amenities are commendable, this experience severely impacted our overall stay and made us reconsider whether we would choose this hotel again in the future."

"Thank you for the excellent stay! The room was clean and comfortable, well-equipped, and the staff were polite and attentive. The overall atmosphere was warm and inviting – truly recommendable. It's a pity that I accidentally left something behind when checking out, and although the hotel staff assisted in the search, it wasn't recovered. Despite this, I was deeply moved by the staff's patience, active communication, and proactive approach throughout the process. Their professionalism and sincerity demonstrated their care for guests, and their responsible spirit is truly admirable. Though the outcome was a bit disappointing, I genuinely felt their efforts. Thank you again for your thoughtful service. I will definitely choose this hotel again in the future and continue to recommend this warmth and reliability to my friends."

"The W Hotel boasts the best location on Barcelona beach. I recommend booking a high-floor room if possible; the sunrise views in the morning are absolutely stunning. After checking in, I suggest heading straight to the beach. The hotel has its own small private beach area accessible from the basement level, and guests get complimentary use of sun loungers and towels. The outdoor pool on the ground floor is fantastic, with many European and American tourists enjoying the sun. My tip is to have breakfast early, as the number of sun loungers on either side of the pool is limited. On Sunday evenings, the hotel hosts a pool party, which is free for guests with a room card. Non-guests have to queue and pay an entrance fee, and the atmosphere at the pool party is really great."

"An extraordinary experience at NH Collection Calderón Barcelona Our stay at the NH Collection Calderón was simply excellent from start to finish. From the moment we checked in, we were made to feel welcome, with warm, professional, and genuinely friendly service from the entire hotel team. The location is fantastic for exploring Barcelona on foot, and the facilities perfectly combine comfort, elegance, and the city's architectural charm. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and very well-maintained, allowing for a good rest after a full day exploring Barcelona. But what really made the difference were the people. The staff were always willing to help, answer questions, and offer assistance with a smile. On several occasions, we received attention that went far beyond what was expected, demonstrating a true commitment to their guests' experience. Once again, we confirmed something that always impresses us about Spain: the extraordinary culture of service and hospitality they have towards tourism. They make you feel welcome, comfortable, and valued. This natural way of looking after people turns a trip into a memorable experience. NH is a brand we hold dear to our hearts. Over the years, it has proven to be a reliable, consistent, and high-quality chain. When we stay at an NH, we feel at ease because we know we will find professionalism, comfort, and exceptional service. We would like to especially thank the entire team at NH Collection Calderón for contributing to such a pleasant trip. We will undoubtedly stay with you again on future visits to Barcelona and will continue to recommend NH to family and friends. Thank you very much for making us feel at home. Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
