Frankly, the hotel is not bad, but when I book a 5 star hotel, I expect to stay in a 5 star hotel. The concierge was very nie, but frankly, was not very helpful. They culd not direct me on how to get to an important landmark, telling me to simply take a cab and surely they would know how... more

Just came back from a work event that was based in the hotel over three days. The location of the hotel is OK, but it is nowhere near the fun/action and it is a 30-45 ride on the underground/subway to get anywhere decent. The food at the hotel was good and there was certainly plenty of selection and the quality... more

This is a good hotel with good location near Nou Camp. I did not use the restaurant so I have no opinion about the services there. Positive: Very service minded staff, the location. Negative: a bit outdated rooms, the WLAN did not work during my stay. With a refurbishing the hotel could be perhaps the best in Barcelona. more

I stayed with my wife for just 2 nights 14th&15th Sept. 09. I booked after seeing a National Newspaper Advertisement on the Hotel. It was an offer so i didn't pay the usual tarrife. It is listed as a 5* hotel and we certainly got 5* treatment. On arrival at Reception, Carlos could not have been more helpfull. After some... more

Average big city business hotel, just a few minutes’ walk from the stadium and the Barcelona FC museum. All the Barcelona players stayed in the hotel prior to the match. It was an extra bonus for my son, to see all the star players twice – even before the match. Me and my son was in Barcelona for a football... more

This used to be a great hotel when it was part of the Inter-Continental Group. It gives you the impression that nothing has been done to keep the old standards. The furniture is old, the walls are stained and things start to go wrong (my phone had a light flashing during 48 hours with no messages in it and nobody... more

My friend and I enjoyed staying at this hotel. I was a bit concerned about what we would find after reading fellow traveller reviews. I can honestly say we didn't have a single complaint. The hotel was very easy to find, near the Maria Cristina Metro stop. The room was lovely and clean. The staff were very helpful. The food... more

I stayed at the Princesa Sofia for a conference. I had read the reviews here and I was a little apprehensive, but the hotel wasn't too bad. My individual room wasn't big, but it was comfortable enough. It had a flat screen TV, but located on the desk (which was still large enough to use). The bathroom was fine, though... more

Ok, so im 25 and not your regular business traveller. Stayed here when i was working at the tennis tournament up the road. The hotel is pretty darn nice, the breakfast out of this world, it was merely the cost of all the extra stuff that left a sour taste. On arrival i was knackered so ordered room service, some... more

Has a great service and the lobby was more than spacious. The rooms were very cozy and confortable. The only problem was at the check out cause we had many people at the same time and nobody offer and alternative receptionist- But the overall experience was perfect. more
