Very nice hotel, we had the fabulous room on the 7th floor with view of the sea and city. Would be nice to have complementary tea in the room and free Wi-Fi, but used to that! No more than 20 mins walk to town and a few mins in the cab to most spots. I recommend using the many bus... More

We had a conference in Barcelona and you cannot beat the W for location and general party vibe. This is THE place to hang out, drink cocktails, dance the night away however DO NOT go here if you are wanting a relaxing spa stay in Barcelona. The service of this place really let's it down, they couldn't cope with the... More

Me and my partner stayed at the W hotel in April 2013. We had a W Wonderful room which I can only describe as amazing. The bed is sat in the middle of the room in the room looking out over the sea. The bedside tables have electronic options to open and close the electronic curtains and change the colour... More

Great hotel. Great amenities. Great service. We stayed at the W just for 1 night before our flight back to the US- awesome location, right on the beach. Their pool is very chic. Eclipse lounge on the 26th floor is fun and caters to people of all ages. BUT, if you are planning to sight see in Bacelona- this hotels... More

Started off our 12 day business conference/retreat by staying at the Barcelona W from May 2nd to 5th. We had a room on the 12th floor with a fantastic view of the beach and cityline. The room was exceptional, very comfortable bed, excellent shower, housekeeping was immaculate. Service around the W was a little inconsistent, occasionally the servers needed reminding... More

A great hotel in Barcelona. Got a room with a beach view, the W WOW lighting is pretty cool and the shower is "a must experience". The sun deck & pool area was very cool and enjoyed hanging out. Enjoyed a stroll along the beach and found it easy to get into Barcelona (as long as you like to walk).... More

What a terrific hotel. W Barcelona is hitting all the right buttons. Stunning architecture that dominates the seafront, great layout inside the hotel and rooms that are modern and sufficiently different to make you smile. What really sets this hotel apart is the quality of the staff - without exception they were first class. From the moment we arrived to... More
