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
Reasonable stay
Nice Hotel, clean rooms, helpful staff, excellent junior suite. Short walk to Metro. But the club lounge is poorer than other Hyatt Hotels.

Broken and poor service
Dirty room with broken features (shower handle was ripped off, no water pressure, would not drain). Strong sewage smell on the floor. Bed springs were poking through. Chair in the lobby bar was broken and there were food scrapes all over the floor. On checkout was told "Oh well, fill out a survey"

Trip of a lifetime
Amazing experience at a top notch resort. The staff were over the top, friendly and helpful. They made us feel special and welcome to be there. The food at all the restaurants were delicious, clean, fun and would recommend.

Sets a very high bar for future travel experiences
Really phenomenal hotel experience! We got upgraded to a Junior Suite which had a huge, quality bathroom (big tub, giant shower, double sinks, etc). The view overlooking the city was also great. Location: 8/10: close to the airport, but about 20 min from main Barcelona attractions (Sagrada de Familia, etc). However, taxis are cheap and are always available in front of the hotel. There's also a Hop-on-Hop-Off bus (City Tour Barcelona) that picks up right in front of the hotel. Food: we're food snobs, so I was surprised that I really enjoyed the food at the hotel. We didn't try any of the on-site fancy restaurants, but we had the breakfast buffet every morning and it was SO good. Staff: All the staff were kind, accommodating, and helpful. Particularly the breakfast staff, who got us everything we needed including constant refilling of fresh OJ and espresso even while it was really busy and chaotic. Special shout-outs to Luis Daniel, one of the servers, and Raquel, who was the hostess at breakfast- they were so friendly and professional. Spa: We did the 90min spa circuit, and that was great. We went on a Monday evening and had the place entirely to ourselves. We didn't do any of the massages or other spa services because they were really expensive, but the hotel has a number of good spas within walking distance if you're looking for an alternative. All in all, 100% would stay there again, highly recommend!
