What guests think

At W Barcelona, travelers praise the striking beachfront setting, sweeping sea views, lively atmosphere, and many amenities, while feedback also notes uneven service with long check-in lines, occasional housekeeping lapses, and maintenance or noise issues that affect comfort.

Rooms are often spacious with panoramic sea or marina views, though several guests report dated carpets, leaky showers, or AC and TV problems. Pools, beach access, spa, gym, and popular bars and restaurants stand out, but pool or rooftop spaces can close for private events and bar or poolside service can be slow. The location is scenic and a short taxi ride from most sights, with a party vibe that can be loud at night. Expect an energetic beachfront stay rather than a quiet, central base.

Clearly this hotel was a favourite for Barcelona. Lots of locals try to get in so Security was tight. Always asking who are you. They offered access to the roof top lounge and dinning room. But never go there. Always book up. Could not get a table until 10 pm. Not for a family. Sunday night there was a big pool disco party and locals lined up. The main floor bars were packed. The location for swimming was good. The breakfast again was not up to a Marriott standard I am use too. Only self serve. Order fried eggs and never got them. On serve said the breakfast is covered but the tip is not? Most staff tried to accommodated but was it a 6 start, no not at all. At least the bathroom did not have clear windows into the room like a lot of hotels.

Beautiful hotel with numerous amenities. Our rooms were not ready until 5:00 and 5:30, because the hotel was at full capacity the previous night and the cleaning staff was running behind. The rooms are spacious with plenty of closet space. Our minibar had a bunch of things missing but we were assured that “it’s not going to be a problem”. The floor of the large shower was not pitched correctly so the water would flow out into the bathroom. We placed a towel on the ground inside the shower to keep most of the water inside. The outside of the property featured many loungers and pools with cabanas for rent. The one issue we had was that they would close the outside areas at 4:30 each day to set up for private events. One of the reasons we paid thousands of dollars for this hotel was to use the infinity pool, hot tub and poolside loungers, and we were deprived of using them, because the hotel got more money from someone else to reserve those areas. We were actually told that we can use the table with 4 chairs if we pay 1000€ or a 6 person lounger for 2000€. No thank you… The concierge was not helpful in obtaining tickets for sightseeing, actually telling us to use the websites. Also they made a reservation for the hotel restaurant Fire, and then when we showed up, the hostes had no such reservations!! Disappointed

Most of the vacation was excellent. The service of the concierge and the hotel staff was great. The service around the pool and beach however, was awful. They would take our order and it would take so long or never show up. I also got the feeling i was annoying them when i asked about the missing orders. This was on more than one occasion. The room was great and they upgraded us to a higher floor because it was available. The room cleaning service did an excellent job cleaning the room daily and would leave us small treats. Overall it was an awsome experience maybe i just got unlucky with the pool staff.

Great location with gorgeous views. A little away from most of the attractions but just a 20 minute taxi ride from most of them. And always a taxi there waiting. All of the staff was great!!! Thought I left phone in taxi and young valet ran them down. Food was good. Looked like pretty popular place for the bar scene. My kids liked the view and how close it was to the beach. Rooms were great!!! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Close to the cruise port area. I would stay here again and try to use more of the amenities.

The wait to check-in was more than half of an hour, and the lobby felt chaotic. The room was fine, but the shower had chipped/missing tile pieces and a damaged drain cover. Hallway carpets were stained, wet from rain because the doors were open, and smelled musty. The noise level was a party atmosphere and could be heard from our seventh floor room at 2am. The bar and restaurant food and beverages were delicious and service top-notch. We appreciated the proximity to the beach and Barceloneta area.

The good - great location and amazing view from the room, and the beds and pillows are comfortable. I felt safe in this district. The bad - room servicing and kitchen bathroom amenities not replenished (we requested multiple times (daily) to have teabags replenished in our tea/coffee station in our room. We also had to ask for body wash to be refilled. For a "five-star" hotel, this attention to detail should be a given. The ugly - every morning there was an unpleasant smell in the shower from the drains. The conference room is in the basement, so there is no daylight or fresh air.

Aside from the great location and view it was one of the worst hotels I’ve stayed at. The first night the whole pool and beach area shutdown early for a DJ show and we couldn’t get anyone to get us drinks for at least 30 minutes. Shower leaked out into sink area and into toilet every time we showered. Anytime a neighboring door shut the mirror and whole wall rattled very loud. Couch and floor stained. Open concept to lobby and bar down below made for very loud nights and hard to sleep. Our keys stopped working on the third day we were staying there. I was very disappointed with this hotel especially for how much money I spent on the room. I would never stay here again.

The property’s location is beautiful with great view of the beach and easy access to the beach area. However, it is loud and chaotic. Our arrival experience was very disappointing with the hotel transportation being 40 mins late to pick us up, followed with hours of waiting for our room. Check in is guaranteed for 3pm but we didn’t get our keys until 6pm which really ruined our first day in Barcelona. The concierge misplaced our luggage which they had stored for us. So overall the first impression was poor. The management did try to please us and we appreciated it. I wouldn’t stay at this property again, there are definitely much better options.

The property is absolutely breathe taking. The check in service was outstanding. I arrived at 9am and surprisingly my room was ready. I did not have to wait until 3pm like most hotels. On the negative side once I was checked in the rest of the staff were not so amazing. Everytime I attempted to board the elevator to go to my room, I was stopped by hotel staff and asked could they help me as if I was not a registered guest. This was vet unprofessional and annoying to me. I had a dinner reservation at the rooftop resturant, they would not allow me to board the elevator, I’m assuming because there is a club in the resturant. They just automatically assumed I was going to the club and told me I had to stand in a line. At that point I became very vocal and asked was I being treated this way because of my skin tone. The host check-in immediate informed them we had reservations and were guest in the hotel. This type of service is not acceptable especially when the rate is $600 per night. I would def stay again, but I would be clear to inform the staff upfront to not harass me, I am a paying guest.

Everything about this hotel was amazing! Everyone was friendly and welcoming, the room was spacious and clean, and the food and drinks were outstanding at all the restaurants and bars. It was the perfect place to spend our 30th anniversary. We loved that we were close enough to be able to walk into the city or easily grab a cab waiting outside the hotel, but also far enough away from the city that we had a luxurious place to relax when we returned from our excursions. We were very sad to leave and dream of returning again someday!
