Barcelonès Hotels with Gym

The hotel has a good location, with many restaurants nearby and several metro lines. It's within walking distance of the Palau de la Música, the Gothic Quarter, Casa Batlló, and Casa Milà. The hotel rooms aren't large, but they're acceptable. The bathroom, while small, is functional. The king-size bed is made of two double beds pushed together, and the bedding is comfortable. Breakfast starts at 7:30 AM. If you have plans for the morning, you can book a room without breakfast. However, the hotel breakfast is quite substantial, including freshly squeezed orange juice, various cheeses and breads, and marinated salmon. On our last day, we had to catch a train and didn't have time for breakfast, so we told the restaurant in advance, and they prepared takeaway breakfast boxes for us to eat on the train. This hotel, like the one we stayed at in Madrid, is part of the 'Catalonia Hotels and Resorts' group, and we had a very good experience with both.

I had an amazing 7 days and 6 nights stay at Ohla Barcelona. From the moment I arrived, it completely exceeded my expectations. Beyond being a beautiful five-star hotel with a rooftop pool, gym, rooftop bar, and a Michelin one-star restaurant, what truly impressed me was the warmth of the service and the genuine focus on guest experience. Even before arriving, I received thoughtful emails from their Experience Team — and yes, they actually call it the Experience Team — asking if there was anything I needed ahead of check-in. It immediately made the stay feel personal and intentional. Upon checking in, guests are welcomed with free-flow bubbly from Barcelona, trays of chocolates, and a hospitality team that genuinely makes you feel cared for. The hotel also has its own app where you can request amenities, special pillows, support pillows, and other essentials conveniently. There is also a dedicated concierge/help desk that gives excellent recommendations for dining and things to do around the city. The location is another huge highlight. The hotel sits directly across from Palau de la Música Catalana, and within walking distance to the Barcelona Cathedral and the Gothic Quarter, where every street and building feels layered with history and character. It’s the perfect place to slow down, wander through the Gothic streets, and eventually make your way toward El Born for dinner. Even when heading further out to places like Sagrada Família, Casa Batlló, or Casa Milà, everything is only a short taxi ride away, which made the stay incredibly convenient. I also appreciated the well-equipped gym and sauna, which allowed me to maintain my workout routine while travelling. One of the nicest touches was the turndown service every evening. There were always handwritten notes waiting for us, along with chocolates, little surprises, complimentary pictorial books about Barcelona, and even bottles of wine in the room. None of it felt performative or overly scripted. The warmth felt sincere and heartfelt. Design-wise, the hotel strikes a beautiful balance between old and new Barcelona. From the exterior, you still see the classic architectural curves and aged character of the city, while inside, the interiors are dark, modern, contemporary, and thoughtfully designed. Cozy rooms, elegant marble finishes, and a global design sensibility that would appeal to travellers who appreciate aesthetics, comfort, and detail. The breakfast buffet was also excellent, and every member of the staff always seemed ready to help and serve with genuine hospitality. I truly enjoyed my stay here, and if I return to Barcelona, I would absolutely stay here again. Easily one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at in Spain, if not the best.

The parking fee was quite expensive, and the hotel elevator doesn't go directly to the parking lot. There was a power outage on the day I arrived, so the front desk helped me carry my luggage to the room. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and it's a very quiet area.

Fantastic hotel! It's a short 10-minute walk to the beach and about a 15-minute stroll to the Natural History Museum or the sightseeing bus stop. Rooms on the 10th floor and above offer amazing views, especially the corner suites which boast both ocean and cityscapes. The balcony is incredibly comfortable, featuring a small round table with two chairs. Each room comes with a kitchen and cooking utensils, a microwave, and a refrigerator stocked with complimentary bottled water. The beds and bedding are exceptionally comfortable. This hotel is perfect for both family vacations and business trips.

I had a flight back from the airport two nights later, so I was looking for a hotel conveniently located between the city center and the airport to minimize travel after checking out and leaving my luggage. This hotel is situated right above Barcelona Sants Station. As you walk around, you'll find an entrance that looks like it belongs to the hotel. After taking the elevator up, you can check in. The hotel strongly embodies a business hotel concept with a space theme. The lobby offers water, wine, and a few snacks. It also features a gym, a bar, and meeting spaces. The room has a separate toilet and shower, with a sink located just outside. It's not overly spacious, but it's perfectly adequate for two people. I didn't have breakfast at the hotel. Since it's above the station, I grabbed some McDonald's for breakfast inside the station.

The room was quite spacious; my friend and I had no problem opening up both our suitcases. The water pressure in the bathroom was excellent, making showers and hair washing quite comfortable. The location is pretty good too – a bit far from the subway but there's a bus stop right outside. It's super convenient for getting to Casa Milà, Casa Batlló, and Sagrada Família. The area feels safe, with plenty of food and drink options nearby. The staff were very friendly and spoke English fluently, so communication was a breeze. However, there were a few issues. Firstly, there was no shower curtain for the bathtub, so the bathroom floor was soaked every time we showered, and it got quite chilly after a while. Secondly, the duvet didn't have a proper cover; instead, two sheets were used above and below it, and all three layers were tucked in so tightly under the mattress by the staff that we had to struggle to pull the duvet out every night. We ended up asking the front desk not to make our beds for the rest of our stay. Though, I hear this duvet cover situation might be common in Europe. Lastly, the soundproofing was really poor. We were lucky our neighbors weren't too noisy, and my friend and I aren't particularly sensitive to sound, but you could honestly hear every little thing happening next door. All in all, it was a mixed bag, but for the price and location, we couldn't really expect much more.

clean & peaceful lodging A few bus stops nearby. A metro station is about 15-20 minutes walking down/uphill. The hotel provides a ree shuttle minivan with advance notifications to a nearby metro station/shopping mall. It is less convenient with no local phone when booking a return pick up time because I couldn't foretell when I was able to return. The staff was considerate to allow us to check in slightly earlier. Without additional cost

The room is new and quite nice. They offer free luggage storage, and the front desk staff are very welcoming. You can also get free water and coffee at the front desk every day. However, the bed is a bit soft, which might not be suitable for people prone to back pain. The hotel is located in a quiet residential area with authentic bars and restaurants nearby. It's not too far and not too close to the city's attractions; walking might be a bit tiring, so public transport is usually needed. However, it's very close to the subway and bus stations, which is convenient.

This was my second stay in the hotel. The reception staff was friendly and helpful, David treated us fantastically and gave us two great rooms in a high floor facing the sea and Montjuic mount, where luckily that same night there were fireworks. The rooms were big and very original, the same unique feeling as the whole building that you cannot find in too many hotels. The roof top bar and swimming pool are excellent to chill and admire the beauty of the city. The gym is a bit compact but enough for a workout, and it has a small indoor pool to relax. But the breakfast was for me the highlight. The service was impeccable, preparing coffee for you on demand, and the variety of fruits, cold cuts and different dishes was so good that our breakfast lasted close to one hour. I will go again for sure!

I truly had an excellent stay at this hotel, and I was particularly pleased with the room and the view. I had specifically paid a certain price for a nice view, and it was absolutely worth it. In some establishments, you pay more for a view, but then you end up in a corner or off to the side with a much less interesting view. Here, that was absolutely not the case: I had a magnificent view, and I was even told that I had one of the best views in the hotel, if not the best. I also really appreciated the service. Right from arrival, the hotel staff came to help with luggage and were genuinely attentive. Even if you don't speak perfect English, they make an effort to understand and communicate. Notably, the staff speaks French, English, and German, which is truly commendable. The room was always very clean, and the daily housekeeping was excellent. Everything was well-maintained, and you could tell the hotel paid attention to details. The breakfast was also excellent, with a wide variety of choices and quality products. It was really pleasant to start the day like that. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay. Between the view, the cleanliness, the very welcoming staff, the luggage service, and the quality of the breakfast, everything came together for a wonderful time. I genuinely recommend this hotel and wouldn't hesitate to return.
