This is physically a truly spectacular hotel -- the photos and descriptions here and elsewhere are completely accurate. I'd also add that the hotel is QUIET -- despite being in the middle of a touristy part of Barcelona. What was most exceptional for us, though, was the service: we felt like the entire staff was genuinely happy to see us and personally invested in making sure we were well taken care of and getting the most out of our trip. (Can't overstate this; only once before -- in Paris decades ago -- have we experienced this level of service at a hotel. Maybe it's a European thing, but as Americans, it was touching and VERY much appreciated to be taken care of this way.) Special kudos go to Joan the concierge ... who exemplifed the gold keys he wears on his lapel. Our trip would have been much less memorable without him.…

Hotel's Favorite
There are certainly other great hotels in a city like Barcelona, but the Mercer is without any doubt a class apart. The staff members at all levels are highly professional and friendly as can be, exceeding our high expectations; the location in the Gothic District is ideal (the Picasso museum is around the corner), and the gorgeous building is a protected city monument; the tasteful decoration combines perfectly with the old stones, and there is an island of serenity on the roof terrace - to the extent that we found it hard to leave the hotel to dine or make visits. I can only recommend the hotel very highly.

We stayed 3 nights and 4 days in the Barcelona. It was not our first time in the city and although we always stay in small luxury hotels, this little gem of a hotel out won them all. The situation between the ancient walls, the beautiful architecture and meticulous planning is stunningly elegant and fuss free. I am an interior decorator and could well appreciate the fine tuning and luxurious detailing, Everything about this small hotels says sophistication and comfort. We stayed in a deluxe room which was very spacious and filled with every amenity to make us feel welcome and comfortable. the terrace on the roof is an excellent place to relax after a long day in the city. but above all I would like to praise the flawless service which we received from Joan Maner the director and his wonderful team who waited on our every request or question. We travel a lot and are used to great hotels but it is not every day that one comes across wonderful service that doesn't impose itself. Here we met this rare commodity and it made our stay (especially in this strange Covid 19 days), a unique experience. we would definitely return here on our next trip to Barcelona…

My wife, Christine, booked this hotel for four nights as the starting point for our European trip. We could not have been happier with the quality of service we received. Every question and need we had was eagerly addressed. Upon arrival, the manager, Joan Manel, greeted us and made sure we were comfortable. His and his team’s ability to help us with every detail, but also give us our space to relax, was absolutely top notch. Their restaurant recommendations were on point. The breakfasts were high quality, with plenty of options, and served with a smile. The standard room we had was very spacious, with extra high ceilings and ceiling to floor windows. The bed was very comfortable and helped us with our jet lag transition. We found the location in the Gothic Quarter perfect - walking distance to the best restaurants and sites, but also tucked into the history of the city. If you’re planning a trip to Barcelona, don’t think twice about booking at the Mercer! Everything from the top down is high quality!…

We had the absolute best time in this beautiful gem of a hotel located in historical Barri Gotic. There was absolutely nothing to even mention that was not perfect. Beautifullly designed hotel with a spacious room, great beds, Molton Brown toiletries, a pool on the rooftop and the most friendly staff you can imagine.
