Le Meridien Barcelona

I ended up at Le Meridien after leaving another hotel due to an unacceptable room. I was tired and really hoping I'd made a good choice with my second property. I couldn't have been happier with my choice. Upon arrival, I received the welcome I'm used to with a Marriott property. The front of house staff was very attentive and helpful. They gave me multiple bottles of water for my room and while I had to wait for my room to be ready to check in, the lobby was very comfortable with plenty of seating. Carlos assisted me with bringing my bags to my room and was absolutely wonderful. Very helpful and friendly. I have a very sensitive nose and I wasn't crazy about the way the first room smelled, so I called to the front and they didn't hesitate to move me to another room. The next room was much better. The rooms are spacious, the beds are comfortable, there is complimentary water, coffee, and tea. They also left me some treats and a small bottle of champagne today after I returned from a day of walking around the town. The a/c works really well and I'm directly on La Rambla but with my white noise playing on my phone I didn't hear anything at all from the street. The bathroom is also very spacious. The bath tub has about a 2 ledge that you have to step into to get into the shower. If you have mobility issues you may want to book an accessible room. It's great to have a place to stay when I come to town in the future that I know is clean, close to everything, and staffed with an attentive and helpful staff. Every single person I've come into contact from house keeping to front of house has been so helpful and hospitable. Another person mentioned that this isn't a good area but I felt very safe here. Not sure what they're talking about.

Beautiful hotel and amazing staff...I just wish the location was different. La Rambla is not an attractive place to visit, and the hotel is right in the middle of it. The hotel staff was extremely helpful with our reservations and Bonvoy upgrades; they gave us an excellent dinner recommendation and worked hard to get us a last minute reservation. The buffet breakfast was great!

My wife and I spent 3 nights here. Before arriving, I had worked with 3 members of the concierge staff, Bruno, Ricardo, and Bruna who recommended restaurants (Rao and Alegoria) and a 4 hour guided/private walking tour for us. Upon arrival, we met the lovely Galician, Christina who directed us to where we would dine. We got over jet-lag by using the great service of Catalina in their small Spa. The Argentinian Eugina gave us great advice on things to do. Breakfast is connected to the hotel and is open to the public. Best advice is to ask for a back side hotel room to avoid street noise

This was probably one of the best Marriotts I stayed at in a long time. This property is not only beautiful but in a prime location. Shout out to Robin and Andrea for all their help. The staff there was really awesome. I had a minor issue the first day but the manager rectified it immediately. Since I am an ambassador status member I received an upgrade without hassle which really made my stay even more amazing. When i needed to extend my stay 2 more nights, they did it without moving me to another room.

This was a one day extension at the end of a cruise so we literally only used this room as a base for a guided tour of Barcelona and to shower and sleep ahead of a very early flight the following day. The location is perfect with vibrant city life just outside the main entrance and is very close to great tapas bars, restaurants, shopping, architecture and history ... all within a short walk on La Rambla. The room was cool and clean. There was a protest going on with an idiot on a megaphone griping about something until late but that was no fault of the hotel. We drowned it out with the TV. We left too early to appreciate the buffet and we did not use the onsite restaurant (with 20% hotel coupon) as we wanted to walk and see all we could in the short time we had. The hotel had hot, fresh coffee and croissants available for us in the lobby at our early departure. Staff were very pleasant and able to assist us in English. I must restate that this location was perfect for our needs as it was close to everything and an easy trip to the airport.
