Pet friendly Hotels in Catalonia, Spain

Must-Stay: Mandarin Oriental Barcelona 🏦 – The Real-Life Spanish 'Money Heist' Bank! 🏨 Located on Barcelona's famous Passeig de Gràcia, this hotel is right next to Gaudí's stunning Casa Batlló with its magnificent facade. Housed in an elegant mid-20th-century building, it was re-imagined by Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola, boasting a thoroughly modern interior that still retains the distinctive Mandarin Oriental charm. .🏦 Formerly a bank, it incorporates many elements from its past. For instance, a wall in the Banker's Bar was once part of the bank, serving as a safe deposit box area. Even more unique, their menus are presented in metal boxes like banknotes, giving it a real 'Money Heist' vibe, Barcelona style! It also doubles as a lounge for early arrivals, where you can even enjoy breakfast if it's already open. Because it was once a bank, all rooms offer a sense of security, privacy, and tranquility. Even facing the street, it becomes incredibly quiet after dark. The restaurant, lounge, and bar are all contemporary spaces, reflecting the city's artistic spirit and attitude. An absolutely superb check-in experience and service quality.

Entering the hotel lobby is like walking into an old castle. The rooms are simple and clean. It is in the business district, and it is very convenient for transportation, dining, and attractions. It is highly recommended for tourist accommodation.

This hotel boasts an excellent location. From the metro, just look for the 'little pink sausage' in Picture 1, and you'll find it right in the building next to Torre Glòries. It's incredibly convenient, being no more than three metro stops away from popular attractions like Plaça de Catalunya and the various 'casas' along Diagonal Avenue. Getting here from the airport is also easy: take the L9 to Torrasa, then transfer to the L1 and get off at Glòries station. Personally, I highly recommend the route from the hotel to Poblenou Cemetery, and then from the cemetery to Bogatell Beach. It's less crowded, and the scenery is beautiful. If you don't feel like walking back, you can catch the V23 bus. Barcelona's 'third spaces' are everywhere – not just on Diagonal and Passeig de Gràcia. You can enjoy urban strolls in many neighborhoods; when you get tired, just sit on a street bench for some 'photosynthesis,' or head back to the hotel for a relaxing cup of tea. Overall, if you're traveling as a couple and not focused on 'military-style' sightseeing and photo ops, this place offers great value for money.

This hotel feels a bit stingy. Communication with the front desk was difficult; I suspect it's Italian-run. It offers very poor value for money. The breakfast is expensive with very few options. The location is quite remote, and public transportation is scarce. For those driving, the parking fees are excessively high.

Great location, downside is limited rooftop beds so arrive early if you plan to take advantage of the sun! The hotel porter was really helpful and advised that a local taxi would be quicker and cheaper than an UBER however it ended up being double the price, so I would recommend double checking before departure.

The hotel is wonderful! The food is varied and incredibly tasty. The staff are beyond excellent, always going the extra mile to help with any requests. The location is absolutely superb; everything you need for a perfect vacation is within walking distance. But the best part is the price – it's rare to find such low rates for this level of quality.

The room didn't feel very clean, barely acceptable. There was a lot of dust when I opened the quilt, and I kept coughing. The view from the window was okay, with a large window. The bathroom was a bit small. Transportation was convenient, with a subway station nearby, which was very convenient. It was a bit noisy outside at times. The front desk kept us waiting for a long time in the middle of the night when checking in. We kept on the phone, probably for almost an hour, and we called more than once. The hotel can print tickets for free. The soundproofing was poor, and I was woken up by a child at the door in the morning. Everything else was average.

Room serviced every day by really friendly staff. Breakfast was great and again wonderful staff!! Receptionist was so helpful with transportation to Barcelona after our stay. Location was excellent. Would have no hesitation in recommending.

This is the second time we have been here. As always, we have served 10 people. Despite the Covid19 problem, the accommodation was super enjoyable, with perfect facilities, cleaning service for 10 people and the accommodation was great. There are no two without three, so we will have the opportunity to return as soon as possible.

Super nice, clean hotel. On breakfast plenty of choises. Highly recommend, good location!
