I'm really impressed with this Torre Catalunya. We booked this hotel through Expedia and stayed here after our cruise. We book a standard room and we were very pleased when we walked into our room. It's more like a suite on the 18th floor overlooking the city of Barcelona. Awsome view from our room. Everything in the room is just... more

...wanted to locate a hotel nearby train station and got exactly what I wanted. learn few spanish words/phrases before you go... even at the train station, it was hard to find someone who spoke english. There is a market underneath the hotel which was pretty convenient to get drinks, pastries,,,, even hot breakfast ready to go!! Short train ride to... more

I really recommend this hotel. Besides the great, big, clean rooms with awsome vieuws. Breakfast and the Visual resturant (23 floor) are definatelly worth while. But the best of all is the staff, nice and helpfull. Dedicated to make your stay unforgettable!!!!! THANK YOU !!! more

We came off our 7 day Mediterranean cruise and went directly to the hotel. The front desk was extremely accommodating & very warm & friendly. They allowed us an early check-in (approx. 5-6 hours before normal check-in) with no fuss. Our room was very large (we upgraded to a Superior room level as my hubby did not feel it was... more

Upon arriving at the hotel, we were met with a friendly bellman, extremely courteous and friendly front desk personnel and shown to our room. The room was very clean, and by European standards, reasonably spacious with all the expected amenities. Apparently, they do not use wash cloths in Spain nor know what they are. The weather was beautiful, but the... more

I have just got back from staying at the Gran Hotel Torre, it is a lovely clean hotel, modern and the rooms are large, i had an executive room. A bit too much wood in the room is my only comment, but on the whole it was a good clean room, with a lovely bathroom and massive bed (2 singles... more

We chose this hotel b/c it looked like a really nice place to stay in Barcelona. It was a very nice hotel, however, not as nice as we would have thought for the price. We got upgraded to a superior room when we got there, which was nice, although the best part was the view! We were on the 21st... more

This hotel is in a nice location for access to the metro. It is also right next to the train station, so if you are planning on taking the train in or out it is very convenient. There is not a lot around the hotel otherwise though, so you will find yourself going other places to eat and sightsee. The... more

Maybe they had a bad day or maybe I am overcritical, but is the hotel I stayed in the same hotel as the one with the marvelous reviews on Tripadvisor? The hotel I stayed in on 26 September 2009 was filled with very unhelpful and lying staff members and we were given a room that had seen much better days.... more
