4-Star Hotels in Catalonia, Spain

Location: The hotel is located near the train station, but getting there requires climbing a steep hill. It’s puzzling why the hotel doesn’t offer a shuttle bus to the station. On the bright side, the hotel faces the sea, offering stunning views. There’s also a sightseeing mini-train right downstairs, which costs €8 per person. It takes you around some of Tarragona’s main attractions, but it doesn’t stop along the way, nor is there any guided commentary. Service: The hotel staff were incredibly welcoming. They not only recommended excellent sightseeing routes but also some very delicious restaurants. Since we arrived early for check-in and our room wasn’t ready, they kindly offered us the option to use the gym facilities to change clothes if needed. Cleanness: Good. Facility: The mattress was terrible. Why do mattresses in Spanish local-brand hotels seem to always sag so much? Do they actually prefer that sinking feeling? Overall: Great value for money.

I had a really good stay at the SB Diagonal. The hotel’s location made the trip – it’s in a great area with easy access to the city centre, so getting around Barcelona was simple. The room and overall feel of the place were spot on, clean and comfortable throughout. The food and bar weren’t the strongest part of the stay, but everything else more than made up for it. The staff were friendly, the hotel was well kept, and it was a great base for exploring the city. I’d happily stay here again!

The room's cleanliness was just okay, but for Europe, it was quite spacious. The facilities were all new, and with double-glazed windows, it wasn't noisy despite being by the road. However, some of the front desk staff had poor English, making communication a bit difficult. It's a maximum five-minute walk to the metro station, and there's a Spanish supermarket chain nearby, which is very convenient. What I found a bit strange was that they only provided one bottle of water. For subsequent days, we had to take our own bottles downstairs to refill them. I'm not sure if that's a Spanish custom. However, water is very cheap in Spain; you can get two liters for a few cents.

I highly recommended this hotel at Lleida with suggestions to have breakfast there to fully experience its offerings. The room was modern, new, and clean too. The hotel and restaurant staff were friendly. It’s only a few minutes’ walk from the shopping streets. Hotel parking with a fee is available for us.

This was a great short stay at Hilton Diagonal Mar. The location is perfect to the beach and shopping. The service was wonderful. The ladies at the front desk were friendly and helpful. I always enjoy staying at a Hilton hotel and this stay was definitely no exception. Would recommend to those looking for a quality stay.

In general, everything is correct. Huge room and extremely comfortable beds. However, we stayed in a Callaghan's Superior room, but without the details like the Colorado Creek Superior rooms (no bottled water, for example). It is noticeable that the quality of the hotel's food at dinner and breakfast has dropped a lot compared to other times we have stayed at the Gold River.

Very nice hotel. All the staff are very attentive. Best buffet breakfast around. They have personalised egg station which seems to be rarer these days, and have lots of cold and hot food options. Also lots of gluten free options. They also serve curry chicken on the breakfast menu and it was AMAZING. Very good refreshing additional varied option to go with salads etc compared to typical eggs and bacon. This is the second time we came back to this hotel, and the experience is consistently good. On our second stay the only issue we had was with the AC. Everything was working fine but on our third and last day, the AC had switched over to become a heater (no change in the room controls), so ended up in a sweat and had to open the windows. Noticed that they have switched the rooms to all run on heater for the autumn as the city transition to the colder conditions. Would be great if the ac / heater option can be personalised in rooms.

It is 10 minutes away from the train station. There are supermarkets and many restaurants along the way. The hotel room facilities are very new, cleaned every day, and the 24-hour front desk is very nice.

Great hotel option for a Barcelona city stay. We really liked this hotel at the edge of Barcelona city. This hotel is still within zone 1 of Barcelona so you can use a 1 zone public transport to get to and from almost anywhere in Barcelona. The location is pretty good but it is a bit close to the La Mina neighborhood which is a poorer neighborhood of Barcelona. There have been improvements in the neighborhood but it is still recommended to stick to the areas that are near the hotel or the south and west of the hotel (towards the sea) if you plan to stay out late at night. We found the area very convenient for us as we arrived early morning and the Forum metro station is nice and the area immediately near the hotel has reasonable level of security and local police presence. The hotel reception and team was very cordial and serviceable. The room we got was very good, had a nice balcony and it overlooks the nearby student accommodation so it was silent at night. Breakfast was very tasty and had enough of a food variety + delicious breads and iberico ham.

Very clean and hygienic hotel with stunning views of the sea/beach! The staff are very friendly and the facilities are amazing would definitely stay there again.
