First time in Barcelona, and what a way to start the week long visit.. We were greeting by fantastic hotel staff with drinks and then a tour around the hotel. This part of the hotel is new and is a 4 star premium hotel and it truly is worth the stars. The room entrance and lounge area is very cozy and comfortable, the even have a shuffleboard in the lounge, big plus for that..
The have a social hour between 6:30 and 7:30 pm witch the call wine o'clock, meaning you are mingling with other guests and tasting local wines at the same time, great idea that we used every day and ended up going out for dinner with the some of the guests, something that we normally would not do when abroad. The rooms are really comfortable, good space, good shower, good bed, pillows and comforter, and if you don't like your pillows then you can change them out for a variety of other type of pillows, great idea. There are high ceilings in the room, and if you are thirsty for a good cup of coffee then there is a Nespresso machine in your room..
The rooftop pool is fantastic, with great views overseeing Barcelona facing the ocean, and good bar and food service from the hotels restaurant. The spa is a good way to unwind and relax during the day.
We loved our stay and can't wait to visit again.
