I have been living in Barcelona since January and had eaten at the Nobu restaurant once and wanted to come back for a stay so I decided to on my last night and am very happy I did. The check in process was easy and the room was very luxurious with an awesome view of the city. The rooms are very sleek and you can tell that everything is new. The room came with a Marshall speaker which was a nice touch. The bathroom has all high end materials and the bed was extremely comfortable. I love the giant fluffy pillows in the king size bed. The rooms use all high end materials such as wood and marble. Everything is so aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I also really liked the mood lighting. options and the automatic blinds. It’s so nice to open them without having to get out of bed! Comparing this to Four Seasons, St Regis and other 5 star hotels in this category I think it’s rooms are definitely up to the 5 star badge. The location however is a bit odd. If you are looking to stay downtown closer to the tourist spots and shopping, I would recommend the Mandarin Oriental given it’s better location. The Nobu however is close to the metro and they make it super easy to get a cab right out front. Overall a great experience and I will hopefully be back when the Spa opens so I can try it! Also- the Nobu restaurant (which is a chain of course along with the Matsuhisa restaurants) had delicious cocktails and sushi and one of the best views in Barcelona. …
This is supposed to be a 5 star hotel with Nobu restaurant on the top floor, but what I wasn’t told is that it’s still changing from what it was before, so no spa, no proper gym, no massage, no pool, no sauna. Sure, this was about €230 /night, but I wish I’d stayed in the town centre and had some taste of wonderful Barcelona like I’ve had before. I love Barcelona. I think it’s one of the best European cities around. City vibes, great restaurants, culture, beach, easy to walk around. Well, Nobu Hotel is nowhere near all of that! I was given a ViP Corner room #2019 on the 20th floor so it has 2 windows to get a view over the city, however the part of the city we are in is plain modern blocks with nothing to see (photos), so it’s a sad sparse view that lacks any of the Barcelona character that now would expect when visiting this wonderful city. When. You leave the hotel, you are next door to a Mercadona supermarket and Burger King is across the road. This is just not what Barcelona is about! Sure, if this is supposed to be a business hotel, then who needs a view and comforts of exciting Barcelona? Well I think if you hardly have any time here, it’s even more reason to be in the centre so you can walk out of the hotel any time and ‘feel’ the positive Barcelona vibe, instead of just another bricked up concrete jungle that it is around here. Inside the hotel, it is Soulless and feels like a show flat. Staff are pleasant, but that can never make up for what’s really missing here. Oh, just realised that my room has an intermittent heavy hum’ from somewhere in the wall. Not my aircon, as it’s off but more like a lift shaft, but I’m too far way from the lift for that. Breakfast this morning in Nobu restaurant with 'views' over the city, just not the city you imagine! This place is just not for me…or probably you either!…
For the first time works from both sides: Trendy and good, we were for a celebration of our annual reunion with ex partners and our experience was outstanding! This unique and striking restaurant and Hotel displays iconic designs that can´t be missed
Absolutely adore Spain and mostly love Barcelona, have been here plenty of times and always try new hotels, depending on whats affordable, and I like to stay in this general area. When I saw the Nobu hotel at such a fab rate I could hardly believe it, having been a fan of the chain upscale restaurants for years, I immediately booked. All in all, the hotel met all my expectations and very mcuh stayed in line with their luxurious reputation. I liked that all facilities and rooms were and felt very new and never used before, and of course loved having dinner at their sky restaurnat, as good as ever!
From the first warm welcome by the staff we enjoyed a fantastic stay at the Nobu. Rooms stylishly finished and of a good size with amazing views across the northern part of Barcelona. The sky lounge restaurant and bar have panoramic views. Thank you Nobu for a fab stay. Location is not the best for a stroll to the central tourist sights but taxis are plentiful and metro close by.
