Lovely oasis with all the modern touches hidden Barcelona's Gothic quarter. Ideally situated for enjoying the city's history and culture. It was warm when we were there and the pool on the roof was very welcome. Lovely garden spot in the center of the hotel for a delightful breakfast; they even have tiny sandwiches prepack for one to take on any rambles. Concierge was wonderful with recommendations, information.

Dear sdes93, We are delighted to read your review about the Mercer Hotel Barcelona. It is, indeed, an oasis of peace inside the Gothic Quarter, which makes it the ideal place to stay for those who want to reach within a walking distance many of the highlights of the city. The rooftop and swimming pool is only for in house guests, so that they can relax after a busy day. Starting the day having breakfast in the Orange Tree Patio is a blessing for the soul. And the Concierge service is excellent because it is provided by Les Clefs d'Or member. We cant't wait to welcome you back!

The Mercer is very charming and well located to explore Barcelona. The patio where breakfast was served was lovely and the breakfast was among the best we have had at a European hotel. Special kudos to Bellman Andy, who was so pleasant and helpful.

We very much loved our stay here. This boutique hotel contains spacious rooms, tummy tapas, cocktails and a cute, albeit shallow, rooftop pool. Its location was everything. We could walk to so many restaurants and attractions. We will absolutely stay there again. Fingers crossed!

The Mercer in Barcelona is quite the unique hotel experience set within a historic Roman building and renovated meticulously capturing the magic of when modern contemporary design meets historic architecture perfectly. We caught a taxi to the the front door, (through the gothic quarter ) and knew we had found a relaxed yet sophisticated hotel. The Mercer has created nothing short of an oasis seemingly effortlessly. A perfect encapsulation of what is creative and cool with singular attention to detail - beautiful bedding, a stocked bar, coffee machine, modern comfortable furniture, a pool to retreat to on the roof, soft towels in the bathroom all make this truly one of the best hotels I have stayed in. I would highly recommend booking this hotel as it’s truely one of the best hotels to date I have had a vacationed in. Highly recommend, the staff and hotel manager took it to another level. Book if you can secure a room !…

I almost don’t want to tell everyone how good this hotel is so that I can keep it for myself. My husband and I stayed there for our honeymoon. The staff was incredible, hospitable and so accommodating. This truly is the best hotel I have ever stayed at in Barcelona, where I have visited many times.

An amazing hotel in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, which was within walking distance to great food venue's as well as many historic landmarks. The staff couldn't do enough for us and nothing was a problem when responding to any of our requests. The rooftop pool and bar was an excellent spot to relax in after a big day of sightseeing and the tapas restaurant served great food and drinks. My wife and I have traveled to many places and countries and have stayed in many hotels and our 3 night experience at the Mercer is up there as being one of the best stays we have had anywhere. Don't waste your time looking anywhere else to stay in Barcelona as I believe you won't find better.

Dear paulsX7, We are absolutely thrilled by your review. Thank you so much for being such a great ambassador of the Mercer Hotel Barcelona. The whole staff is passionate for their job and attention to detail. The location of the property is ideal for walking to many of the main attractions of the city.

The tapas served at Le Bouchon are delicious because they are made with the best local products. We are already looking forward to welcoming you in the future.

We looked at a number of high-end hotels before settling on the Mercer and couldn't be happier with the choice. This tiny, boutique hotel with 28 rooms is an oasis of relaxation and understated style tucked with the ancient walls of this area. Extraordinary staff and service provided. Beautiful spaces. A small rooftop pool patio where we spent hours sipping excellent Spanish rose. Couldn't have asked for a better place.

Everything was perfect! Our junior suite was very nice and spacious. The staff was extremely friendly. The location is perfect especially if you would like to explore the city by foot. Maybe the comfort of the bed/mattress could be slightly improved. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends.
