Le Meridien Barcelona

Stayed here the second weekend in August. The people are great at this hotel. Very willing to help with nearly anything. Our luggage got lost, they offered to call the airline to help with delivery on more than one occasion. Was willing to help us find stores to shop as well. Location is pretty good. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby on La Rambla. There is a lot of construction on La Rambla also, so while it was easy to get catch a cab outside the hotel, not always easy to get dropped off as a lot of cabbies didn't want to deal with the construction. Super important- If you use the side street address (Pintor Fortuny) you have a better chance of getting dropped at the hotel. Our room was spacious and clean. The ac worked great. We were very close to the elevator and never heard it. Every once in a while, we felt a rumbling-I think this was the subway nearby. You couldn't hear anything though. If we wanted ice we had to request it to be delivered to the room. Hair dryer only blew cold air-not sure if this was a mal-function or we just couldn't figure it out. Flat iron was also included in the room-nice feature when your luggage is missing. View was not so great-but you are in the middle of a city-this was not a deal breaker for us. Fridge worked well also and while there was mini-bar items, there was also a shelf for us to add water or soda. Free water is provided in the room and usually at the door upon coming back from an outing. Spa was nice with a steam room, sauna and a little plunge pool. Roof top deck was cute, but not really a place to get tapas or drinks serviced easily. Hotel restaurant - we had breakfast included with the room and ate there for dinner one night. Dinner was Paella-not that great. The seafood was overcooked, flavor was ok. Breakfast was great the first day-but the same every day after that. Would have been nice to have some berries like strawberries, blueberries or blackberries to add to cereal or as a topping to pancakes or yogurt. I would say, skip the "included breakfast" and just order a la carte. Overall, we enjoyed our trip to Barcelona aside from the lost luggage and construction.

My family and I spent a few nights here post-cruise in Barcelona and enjoyed our stay. We booked the Family suite and it was a nice, large room with a sofa bed that actually split into 2 individual twin sized beds which was great for my kids (9 and 11). Only had 3 complaints about the room. #1 the living room area by the window was noticeably warmer than the rest of the suite. It wasn't too warm to sleep though. #2 the suite only had 1 bathroom and it was accessed through the main bedroom. #3 once the beds were made up, there was really nowhere to sit in the room. There was a large table in the room, but only a single office type chair. The space could've easily fit 3-4 chairs We knew we were going to arrive really early (8:30ish) so I booked the night prior and the front desk was able to work with me and ensure that we wouldn't be marked as a no show which I appreciated. Being able to get into the room right away and repack some bags after the cruise was a big help. Bellmen were also very helpful because there are 3-4 steps from street level to the hotel which can be challenge with bags. Kids also loved the complimentary candies and marshmallows in the lobby. Breakfast in the mornings were good. The variety of options were tasty, but the only place to get eggs was at the egg station. If you're there during peak breakfast hours, expect a bit of a wait as there is 1 person with 2 burners and they can only go so fast. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to come back in the future

We've returned here again, to a place we love. Located in the heart of Barcelona, ​​yet so cozy and intimate, this is our place. From the moment we enter the lobby, we're surrounded by friendly and professional staff. The doormen and the receptionists. We're tired, another hotel on the go, the heat is pouring down from the sky, and at the airport, I fall and hit my hand. It hurts so much. We don't keep track of time; it doesn't exist for us now. But it's only 12 noon, so the room isn't ready yet, and the lobby is busy during peak season. We check in and sit down in the cafe. An hour later, I answer the phone, and a woman's voice says the room is waiting. We finish our beer and return to reception. The gentleman at the front desk hands me the room keys. He's polite, smiles, and has the highest level of personal style. We enter the room, it's brilliant and chilled, just how we like it, which is exactly what I needed. My hand still hurts a bit. We have a wonderful view of La Rambla 111 from the second floor. The two balconies, and the ability to open the balcony windows, are priceless for us. Time to relax, tomorrow the beach, which we've missed so much. The room has silent and very efficient air conditioning, indispensable on these hot days. Our stay was comfortable. The maids, restaurant staff, front desk staff, and security took care of us every day, and it was evident at every turn. The hotel was organized like a Swiss watch, carefully adjusted by Mr. Juan Soler, the General Manager, whom we see every day, is with the guests. This is a pleasant surprise and puts us in a very positive mood at the beginning of each day. Thank you. After a few days, a quick check-out and we're on our way. Another hotel awaits us. What awaits us on our journey through Catalonia ? I've forgotten about my aching arm, but I know everything will be fine until my next visit. I also forgot that the restaurant offers breakfast, a vegan buffet, and my favorite carrot juice !

I stay at a lot of hotel some good ones and some bad ones. But Le Meridian Barcelona has to be the worst hotel ive ever stayed at.

Bruno the concierge was very helpful, giving us good restaurant recommendations off the beaten path. Edgar A and Enrique B in the restaurant went over and above. Julian S at check in was outstanding in customer service. Location of the hotel was excellent for ease of getting around Barcelona.
