The Hotel is absolutely incredible and modern. It has one of the best locations, close to shops, bars and restaurants, museums and the metro station. The view is enchanting and the staff is very welcoming and makes the experience unique! I will definitely come back and recommend it!

Right off the bat, location is the ONLY draw of this property! Service level is not 5 star, more like 4 star. First, the 4 bottles of water allotment for our Family Suite is so frustrating because it fluctuates from day to day. Out of the 7 nights we were there, we got it left in the room maybe 30% of the time? Calling to get it delivered is a frustrating ‘task’ when you are tired at the end of the day when u return to your room! Explanations from staff of how to get it consistently is a convoluted exercise that we finally gave up! We were up sell to a Family Suite for 150 euros more per night, which makes our per night rate well over 500 euros. At this rate, the product we received is DEFINITELY not worth the price! I would suggest if you NEED to stay on the Rambla, get the lowest possible rate at this property, ie 300-350 euros max! We are going to try the Renaissance next time we are in Barcelona as it is in a nice low key neighborhood, right by the luxury shopping boulevard. I do have to give a big thank you for most of the front door staff as they are always welcoming ! Upon arrival, we were almost victim of the ‘distract and grab’ thieves, one of the staff ran towards us and grabbed a few of our bags to quickly get us into the property, thus warding off a potential disaster!

We stayed in 4 hotels on this recent European adventure; a Hilton in Boston and three Marriott brands in France and Spain and while the Hilton wasn’t special, this location was no exception to the previous two Marriott’s (the Aix-en-Provence Renaissance and the Prince de Galles Luxury Collection in Paris)… We were checked in with a very enthusiastic lady who was very helpful, making suggestions and going through the entire checklist during check-in, including acknowledging status, telling us about the property, times for breakfast, the spa, etc. On this stay we were upgraded to one of their amazing suites which come with a king bed and a huge veranda. The patio was the size of most king size hotel rooms, offering lounge chairs for sunning yourself and a full outdoor shower to clean up, couches, etc to enjoy being outside, while still in your hotel room. The room itself was very comfy, cozy, yet extremely spacious and well laid-out. The bathroom had double sinks and a large double closet area as well. It had a huge soaker tub, as well a separate shower. The only issue I had was that the shower was combine in the same glass-doored water closet as the toilet, and though the first third of the floor under the shower was sloped towards the drain, water still got over to the toilet and that just looks and feel gross. They could have designed this slightly better to not have one common floor in such a manner. But, honestly that’s my only complaint about the entire stay and it’s extremely minor in the grand scheme of things, as the rest of the stay, the people at this hotel, and the area were spectacular!! They have a large staff in the lobby ensuring we’re safe and all questions are answered at all times. Their front desk is always staff with at least 2 people, I typically saw 4 there and they’re all concierge and can help with anything, from questions to buying tickets, cabs, directions, etc. The location is perfect for walking to nearly everything! There are tons of great places to eat literally across the street or within a block, as well as quick walks to more eateries, tourists sites, shopping, etc. Highly recommend staying here!

My family of four just stayed at this wonderful hotel for four nights. We chose it because of its great location right on Las Ramblas. We booked 2 rooms and I used an upgrade award hoping to receive a better room for one of the reservations. (My husband is a Bonvoy platinum lifetime member). We arrived before checkin time but we were able to get our rooms. Our room was upgraded to a Corner Suite which was incredible. We had a comfortable bedroom with king bed and a large living area with a huge sofa bed (that converts, I believe to two twin size beds), chairs, desks, and floor-to-ceiling windows that look on the main Avenue. The bathroom was huge and the suite had a second half bath. All 4 of us could have stayed in this room comfortably because it also had privacy doors that would close off the bedroom from the living area. We heard a bit of noise but the double windows and thick drapery block most out. My adult children were very happy with their double twin-bedded room as well. Breakfast for 2 was included due to our loyalty with Marriott; the buffet had everything you could possibly imagine. Hotel is close to the Gothic quarter and historical areas. It is also very close to a couple Metro stations (Liceu and Catalunya). A cab rank is also outside the hotel and we found cabs to be very reasonable. There is also a supermarket around the corner for any necessities. We went to a couple great restaurants nearby - Alegoria and Rao. Staff we encountered were always professional. Recommend for a Barcelona stay!

Wow! Highly recommend Le Meridien in Barcelona. Stunning, modern and tranquil hotel in the centre of Barcelona just off La Rambles. Ignore any negative reviews, this place is incredible. Spacious, modern, quiet rooms just a stones throw from the hustle and bustle of the city. Perfectly placed for the metro and tourist buses, and walking distance from the superb harbour. Amazing buffet breakfast. Staff were attentive and happy to help with any questions. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else!
