About the Hotel

Open your eyes to verdant tree-lined streets, a vibrant atmosphere embracing the arts, and the beautiful sunshine and weather of the Mediterranean, as you arrive at the Hotel Sofia. Located in the heart of Barcelona's bustling shopping and business center, and just minutes from the sea, you will experience this city in style. Plush rooms are bright and inviting, crafted with soft pastel tones and dark, rich wood furniture and accents. Sunlight streams through large picture windows, while city views and the Mediterranean in the distance will take your breath away. Luxurious bathrooms offer complete serenity, while all the modern amenities and services leave you feeling like royalty. Relax and enjoy all that Barcelona has to offer from the lap of luxury at the Hotel Princess Sofia.

Wake to a beautiful day on your first morning, and enjoy a fabulous breakfast at Contraste Restaurant or at iQ smart fresh food, with a menu carefully designed by a nutritionist. Venture out for the day to discover this amazing city, and start with a stroll down the famed La Rambla. Enjoy fantastic and eclectic shopping, vibrant street performances, and delightful cafés where you can sit, relax and people watch. Make your way to La Sagrada Familia, a magnificent temple designed by Anton Gaudi and begun in 1881, where you can marvel at its massive structure, which is still being constructed today. Continue on to Gaudi's psychedelic Park Guell, on a hill overlooking the city, and enjoy a pleasantly strange afternoon amongst serpentine benches, brilliant tile mosaics, giant decorative lizards, and gingerbread-styled houses. In the afternoon stop in at a lovely café for a true taste of Barcelona and enjoy fabulous fresh seafood and pintxos, the delightful tapas-styled local snacks. Take the rest of the afternoon to relax with a sail along the Mediterranean coast, or be moved by an astounding performance at the Gran Teatre del Liceu or L'Auditori. That night, return to the hotel for a well-deserved massage at AQUA Diagonal Spa, then enjoy a fun-filled dinner in the hotel's very own German Biergarten. At Hotel Sofia, every day is truly this magical.

Reviews for Hotel Sofia

Great hotel in a good location in Barcelona

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

Very comfortable stay at the Grand Hyatt. Staff was excellent and very helpful, and the food was very good especially at the new restaurant on the rooftop. Location was great, a little far from downtown proper but very close to the metro and easy to get around. My only complaint is that the hallways are very loud, there is not really any carpeting in the hallways so noise carries very well. Also the windows were very dirty. Other than that, excellent stay.

Wonderful breakfast!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Recent family stay during renaming to Grand Hyatt. Breakfast was a standout with a wide variety of Spanish and international fare. Look for the honey direct from the hive! Much appreciation to Anna who helped us multiple times. She always greeted us with a smile and took care to ask about our activities of the day.

Outstanding Service

Personnel at the Grand Hyatt performed well-above expctations--friendly, effieint, knowledgeable--and surprisingly delightful. Then quality of the hotel itself is superb, but the employees are even better.

A totally memorable experience staying at the Grand Hyatt Barcelona. Beyond our spacious and beautiful suite, every member of the staff were gracious, helpful and provided hospitality services that are ‘work class’. If you stay at the Grand Hyatt Barcelona you will not be disappointed!

Overly Modern, Things Don't Work

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

This is a modern business hotel without much charm. They have invested in a lot of high-tech electronics that are not user-friendly and were frustrating to us. For example, there is not a standard telephone in the suite but a modern hand-help mobile without any icons or instructions, so it was impossible for us to figure out how to call the front desk with a simple inquiry. I had to get dressed and go downstairs where I learned that the bell hop was supposed to teach us how to use it. It took a while for use to learn how to use the electronic window shades and the various lights. Nothing was user-friendly. The coffee machine did not work. The air conditioning was feeble.
