Mountain View Hotels in Barcelona

The hotel is away from the city centre but it is easily accessible by metro. Staff at check-in and breakfast are friendly. We had a triple room, it consists of a double bed and a sofa bed in a separate area. The first night, there were no bed sheets provided for the sofa bed. We went down to the front desk and sheets were delivered to our room promptly. The next day, housekeeping provided a proper blanket and towels for the sofa bed, which is good. I recommend that they should provide these on the first night for triple rooms though. Our room has a jetted tub, but it never worked in the 5 nights we stayed. Other than this, our stay was good. The room has modern decor and a balcony. Breakfast is great with a lot of options: different types of bread with tomato paste and olive oil to add, scrambled egg, sausages, fresh fruits, yogurt, veggies, coffee, tea and juice. Breakfast staff did an excellent job in keeping all the items refilled very quickly.

Those who booked this hotel or apartment you will regret for lifesssss and make your holiday turn into an nightmare. As from the photo (attachment) we booked a penthouse which included 2 single bed / queen bed / king bed. Which is about 200m sq area. Which shown on the photo clearly. I hope my eye sight not blind. When we check in , the receptionist told us, we BOOKED a LOFT BED ROOM . Which have a queen size bed only ?. We are totally shock. City tax is 4euro per pax. But In agoda status I already paid $79.20sgd for city tax, I just need to pay $29.40sgd. The damn receptionist insist that we need to pay 88euro for the stay. Is really a scam hotel. This hotel mgmt keep blaming on agoda platforms giving us a wrong information. Firstly is the room they give us Secondly is the city tax payment!!! Is totally a scam hotel. IF anyone feel like getting scam or wish to try a forgetful experience please try this hotel. Base on the review I’m not the only one who give 1 ⭐️. I have no choice to give that 1 ⭐️. I don’t even want to give any star on this scam hotel! From the photo I share to everyone is I booked a platform

We had a pleasant stay with some superb host in Joanna and Marlene. Thank you. This was also a fantastic location slightly way from the mainstream tourist but still about the best of location mainly to get to the train, airport metro and buses and also to some great hidden restaurants around the corner. Made our stay very comfortable.

We had a great 5 night City Break. Quick Initial Check-In. We arrived early morning so we left luggage in the Hotel safe room and explored locality until we could get into our room. Our 8th Floor room was road facing and clean and well maintained and the bed was really comfortable. Only outside noise we heard was when bar/nightclubs closed early morning (5am ish) a couple of times but not too excessive. Breakfasts were outstanding and plentiful. We stayed Half Board and evening meals was buffet style for 3 nights and a choice of set meals for the remaining 2 nights. Both set meals were top quality and went way beyond our expectations. We tended to visit most places around the city on foot. However, the hotel is next to a metro station which we used a couple of times and getting around the city using the metro is great for getting near to most places of interest. We had a great stay and would definitely stay at the Universal if we re-visited Barcelona.

Paseo de Gracia is the Champs Elysees of Barcelona. On that classical, even aristocratic, avenue sits a small apartment building run like a hotel. We stayed there for a week and thoroughly enjoyed the public roof for entertaining our friends or enjoy the evening air sipping a nice Priorat. The plusses are too many to mention---the perfect bed for starters (we will order the same mattress back home, that's how good it was), the super-fast wifi (about ten times the speed we have in Montreal), the free coffee all day long, the large fridge, the kitchenette, the central location, and the great showers. Minuses: Hard to get in when arriving (the doorbell is not indicated, so you have to slip in with occasional visitors---awkward). The inconsistent design of the apartment (fridge opening the wrong way, lighting fixtures that only turn on by plugging or unplugging, hard-to-read airco temperatures., crazy TV controls that only work by voice operation). But these were minor things. Everything else was great.

A very pleasant stay, we arrived late at night and the woman on reception was polite and spoke great English. Our room was basic but clean and tidy and that's all we wanted and expected. The hotel was fairly quiet, I have read a few reviews about loud music but we had a room at the front of the hotel only 1 floor up and I can honestly say we heard nothing and got 3 good nights sleep. The hotel is situated quite far away from the main part of Barcelona where many of the tourist locations are but its about a 5 minute walk to the nearest tube station and it's all easy enough to navigate so you are there in no time at all. Every night we stayed we retired back to the hotel about 7 or 8pm we sat in the bar area until about 11pm and had a few relaxing drinks. The two people on the bar a young girl and an older gentleman where absolutely fantastic and I cannot thank them enough for making us feel welcome, they bent over backwards to make us feel at home and served us drinks to our table as well as supplying us with some complimentary nuts which never go a miss after a few beers. All in all it was perfect for our long weekend break. Thank you.

A very small, intimate and well kept property located several km from the city center but just a few meters from a subway station that will bring you there in minutes. Our room was large, unusually comfortable and equipped with electronically operated black out drapes. The staff was attentive but not obtrusive. We chose not to eat in its famed restaurant and we were directed by helpful staff to several options nearby. We found this property a slight bit overpriced but not outrageously so; the quiet and care made it a reasonable value.

The Torre Melina is a new hotel in Barcelona. It was formerly the Fairmont but it was undergoing a full refurbishment when we stayed in April. It meant some parts of the hotel were not operational such as the swimming pool, spa and the gym. There was a temporary gym. As we booked a Red Level room we had lounge access and we checked in at the lounge. Our room had a mountain view. The room was new. It was well sized with amenities ranging from television, kettle for tea and coffee, Krups coffee maker, safe, refrigerator. The bathroom had a shower, sink, plenty of bathroom toiletries that were Carner branded such as shampoo to perfume. Other items ranged toothpaste to razor. There was a separate toilet with a jet spray instead of a bidet. I found the bed large and comfortable. USB sockets to charge the phone, even a UK style 3 pin socket as well as the continental 2 pin ones. Lounge access was worth it. We spent a lot of time in the lounge with tea/coffee as well as soft drinks. There was also light food and cakes/desserts available. I did think the food could be better labelled. I was never sure what it was, whether it was suitable for vegetarians or other dietary requirements. The breakfast was nice but again I felt it could be a better experience. As Red Level members we are told we get a better breakfast served in a separate area. It was the same as the rest of the guests. We could order omelettes if we asked the serving staff. Generally there was a good range. Croissants, breads, cereals, cakes. I just expected a little bit more. The hotel itself is rather grand. There was work going on while we were there and I expect it to be impressive once it is all completed. The location is away from the centre. We got here easily from the airport. There is a Metro line that stops directly from the airport to a stop that is less than 10 minutes walk to the hotel. Being near a Metro stop meant we could easily navigate Barcelona such as the Ramblas. We could walk from the hotel to the Nou Camp which is the nearest stop for the HOHO buses.

Perfect choice of hotel for Barcelona. It was a few metro stops away from the centre of Barcelona but it was worth it for the proximity to the beach and also Rambla Poblenou which is packed with restaurants, cafes and shops. We would recommend trying Brisa Sin Prisa where we ate twice and Dino Gelateria next door. The photos on the website don’t do the roof terrace justice as there is not only the pool section but a much larger section behind it with seating and a bar. The pool was bigger than it looks and we could easily find space next to it every time we went. The pool is unheated but was nice to cool down in after a hot day. The breakfast buffet was impressive with lots of choice. There is building work next to the hotel but it didn’t start until later in the morning and did not affect sleep at all. There seems to be building work across a lot of barcelona so don’t let this put you off this hotel. We would definitely stay here next time we visit barcelona

The hotel facilities are good, and you need to go downstairs to have an kettle. I booked a sea view room, but there is a distance from the beach. Watching from the room, the sea is far away and it actually takes about 20 minutes to the sea on foot.
