We were in the room down the hall from the Australian couple and heard him yelling in the hall at 2 am. We weren't sure what was happening, but kept our door closed. The next morning, we walked out the front of the hotel, plannning to get a taxi & a lady came up to me, putting a carnation in... more

Apparently when you book Hotel Del Mar in Barcelona, they play a little game called "we are overbooked" and you are sent immediately by taxi (cab driver not too happy also) to Medinaceli Hotel with the excuse that you booked not directly with them and there is overbooking problem.

Nice hotel for a great price right in the middle of the best area's of Barcelona. I don't know what some of the other reviewers saw in terms of rudeness from the staff, but I did not experience it.

Check in was quick and we were able to leave our cases on our final day once we had checked out of our room so we had more time for sightseeing. We had requested in advance a top floor room with terrace - not available on arrival but we... more

Had a 5 day trip on my own to enjoy the city and the beach and did both. The Hotel Del Mar was a great place for a stay, really close to the harbour, 10 mins from the beach and 10 mins from the centre, and very close to the Metro stop (barceloneta) perfect. Rooms were clean and big, I... more

This is a good value for central Barcelona, and conveniently located with modern, clean, comfortable rooms. However, I think the tripadvisor ratings make it sound better than it is. The rooms are good, but the hotel itself is somewhat dreary. It could be the dark portico entrance, or the narrow oddly un-hotel like reception area, or the somewhat aloof, not... more

I went to Barcelona in February and stayed at Hotel Del Mar. I think that the location is really good, just 10 minutes from city center. The hotel is clean and staff professional even if a bit cold. Anyway I suggest it! more
