What guests think

At Bel Air, travellers consistently praise the absolute beachfront location, modern rooms with sea views, and generally friendly service, while the on-site restaurant earns many compliments for tasty dishes and a lively atmosphere.

Common drawbacks include late-night noise from the rooftop bar in nearby rooms, firm mattresses, uneven breakfast quality, and occasional pool closures, size, or lack of heating; parking can also be limited. Choose room location carefully if you prioritize quiet nights or pool use.

Facilities

Beachfront access and the rooftop bar are widely appreciated. However, pool availability and size can disappoint (closed, empty, or unheated at times), and on-site parking may be limited.

Great location just at the beach and superfriendly staff at the reception. The restaurant in the hotel is good, we had lunch and breakfast there. Everything was tidy, rooms were modern. Only item was that the A/C was not working in optimal condition and that when we were there (end of May) the swimming pool was still empty.

Som familie havde vi to værelser, et med havudsigt og et uden. Det var en god kombi for os pga pris. Der er fantastisk og direkte udsigt til stranden, da hotellet ligger lige ud til havet. Poolen er lækker, til værelserne var der gratis liggestole og parasol på stranden. Ganske fin morgenmad, virkelig god kaffe og friskpresset appelsinjuice. Lækker rooftop bar med god vibe, dj, lækre cocktails og fantastisk udsigt.

It was in a good area, close to amenities. Sadly only one pool which wasn’t heated. Not family friendly as described. My 9 year old daughter was bored within a few minutes of checking in. Not much of a diverse menu at the restaurant either as I’m vegan but the chef did manage to whip up something which I’m grateful for. Based on my experience it’d be more for a single traveller or a couple. Not recommended for children.

The noisiest hotel I have stayed in. If you are near the roof top bar, you will not sleep until it closes.

Al llegar en la recepción después de tomarme los datos, me querían volver a cobrar, les tuve que decir que estaba pagado desde la aplicación de Expedia, el comentario después de que ellos hiciesen sus comprobaciones fue “perdone, es que estos(Expedia) tardan varios días en pagarnos”. Le solicite plaza de parking para el coche dentro de la instalación y me dicen que no hay que esta lleno, tuve que dejarlo todos los días en la calle (zona azul) 50€ por dos días en la calle y teniendo que estar constantemente sacando los tickets de zona. Limpieza, un desastre, te hacen la cama 2 toallas limpias y las mismas manchas en la terraza y la arena de la playa en el suelo (sin barrer). Piscina muy pequeña, a la que se junta una familia con 2 hijos, ya no cabe nadie más. Terraza en la primera planta poco discreta y si estás sentado en la terraza intentando relajarte no se puede es poco íntima ya que toda la gente que pasa por el paseo se te queda mirando. Eso sí, Castelldefels como sitioy es precioso, la playa, el pueblo, todo en general. Pero el hotel no mucho.

Lovely property with the only reason it didn't get a 5 was the noise from the rooftop bar/club on the weekend. Ask for a room at the far end of the hotel if you stay here

Not the most friendly welcome, justbthe classic "passport". Got the room nearest elevator, gap between door and floor. Floor in bathroom seems to have a problem. Otherwise rooms are ok. Breakfast is a bit sad. Coffe is shi*t and staff was not friendly. Great location and the separate roof top bar is excellent. Bartender is Eric and he is magic. Nice atmosphere. After 4 stays here, we will choose another hotel in Casteldefells for our next stay.

Absolutely perfect beachfront hotel near Barcelona airport. Holiday feel, with delightful large pool, sunloungers and parasols. Beachside terrace bar and restaurant. Our room had a heavenly big bed with ocean view and terrace. Friendly staff and great local food. Incredible value at under 200 Euros for the night.

Nice location, right at the beach. Sadly our bed was missing a topmadras, so you could really feel the springs against your body and breakfast was really bad. But nice clean room with amazing view. But the biggest complain was that we were not informed, that the pool was not working and the hole pool area was closed

Nous avons réservé 2 chambres exécutive avec vue sur mer pour 3 nuits. La chambre 306 occupée par ma fille jouxtait le bar à cocktails situé sur le roof top et ma fille ne savait pas dormir avant quasi 2h du matin à cause de la musique (volume élevé avec basses ). La chambre 304 que nous occupions ne nous permettait pas de régler la climatisation qu’en appelant la réception pour l’allumer, l’éteindre ou simplement en régler l’intensité. En fonction du sens du vent, un jour durant, nous avons eu droit au ballet incessant des avions atterrissant à l’aéroport (bruit et odeurs de kérosène compris). Pour le reste, personnel sympathique et hôtel propre.
