The location was excellent and I felt very safe when out for a run in the early morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. We took advantage of the hotel breakfast and it was perfectly acceptable -- nothing spectacular but no problems either. The shower in particular was a problem in that it drained poorly, was very slippery when wet (see: drained poorly), and caused a lot of flooding on the floor of the main bathroom, which increased the slippery danger. The beds were comfortable and I appreciated the staff leaving an extra pillow in the armoire if we wanted it.

One of the best accommodations we stayed in Spain. The location was good, you carried your luggage, the welcome drink and champagne were delicious, and the water pressure was so good that it was a real bathhouse. It was clean and comfortable. Except for the fact that it was a little noisy because I heard the road when I slept at night, I am still very satisfied with everything.

Booked a family suite and didn't expect to get 2 separate rooms with interconnected entrance!! Rooms are large and clean, new modern deco, lots of mirrors, be prepared to run into a few morrors when moving in! 😅 Best location! Can't ask for any better location in Barcelona! Right on the best street of Barcelona, where all the big brands are located, LV, Hermes, Gucci, Dior, you name it, also next to Casa Mila and able to see Casa Batllo from some rooms and Sagrada Família from roof top bar! Which is a bonus! as roof top bar is about 2 storeys higher than most buildings around and you can go up and enjoy a drink anytime! Metro station is 5 mins away. Only down side is Mrs spending too much time and money at the big brands! 😅 And you pretty much can get there as first customer in the morning, less queuing! 👍

My daughter is currently studying abroad, and for her spring break we had planned on meeting in Barcelona, where neither of us had visited before. Freezing temperatures and snow in the United States unfortunately tampered with our plans, and I was then detained and unable to join her. At first I was nervous, but the Hotel Arts took amazing care of my daughter as she experienced her first solo vacation - and loved every moment. From all she has told me, it sounds like the Hotel Arts made a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience in every way. Special shout out to the incredible bar staff in the lobby bar who gave her an amazing list of restaurants, bars, and site recommendations. Bartenders Alex, Nicola and Diego, whose service went above and beyond, by her report, were welcoming, gracious, and terrific hosts. My daughter also tells me the woman who helped her with check in and check out was wonderfully friendly and helped her arrange a taxi for her departure and also gave some local tips. Her name, however, seemed Catalan and my daughter cannot remember how to spell it. On check-in my daughter was given both a spa and drink voucher, both of which were very much appreciated, and put to good use. In the room as well, was a lovely gift of fresh clementines, which I am told tasted wonderful. The location of the Hotel Arts is also perfect, sitting on the beach and close to attractions and public transportation. The amenities were also wonderful, and the gym was clean, spacious, and had lovely equipment. The property itself is gorgeous, with astounding views of the Mediterranean. This hotel truly held up to Ritz Carlton and 5 star standard, and every part of her experience far exceeded expectations. She couldn’t have been in safer hands and I am so glad she has such a good experience at the Hotel Art. She recommends it so highly that we are now changing our summer vacation plans from France to Barcelona. we look very much to returning to this amazing property!

The hotel service and environment are good! When I first arrived, it was a bit cold at night, but the room can actually adjust the heating, which is great! I was assigned a room with a street view. There was a two-person sofa by the window and a good bench for placing items. The only thing I don't like is the shower in the bathtub. Only half of the glass has no door. Water easily splashes out during the shower and there is no way to separate dry and wet. The hotel is very conveniently located, with supermarkets, bakeries and restaurants not far away. It is about a 10-minute walk from both Batllo and Mira. It is also within a ten-minute walk from several subway stations. It is quite convenient to take the Airport Express R2 to Passeig de Gracia.

Avoid this hotel, This hotel has lot of problems specially for geust that are planning to stay longer than 3 dyas. Please read it till the end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First of all the problems started before whe arrived with this hotel. Whe booked suite with an early checkin and sended an email with the question from wich time whe can checkin while whe booked an early checkin. Whe got an email back from manuela wich she didnt chekced my booking at all even i sended their my booking nr. She reply’s that early checkin is upon availability. After sending a mail back she says sorry about the misunderstanding because i have already booked the early checking, she just didnt checked my personal details before sending a email back. The next few days i sended a email again about taxi’s etc….and mosts email wont get answered. The days whe arrived in our suite. Huge leaking in the shower. Molt is growing on the wet carpet. Whe have reported this at least 4/5 times and only 2 times they taken action, ask this to the housekeepers and even they told me that they reported it many times. Whe are just suprised that they told us that the hotel staff isnt listen to them!. They just ingnore it in most cases. Guesst are not always able to use the swimming pool while you payed for the hotel as a guest becasue companies have to constantly rent the pool so that guests can't use it, especially in the evenings. We also noticed that noise from the roof daily. almost every day there is a party going on on the roof with music which is no problem at all, only the music is on so loud that you can hear it in the rooms. almost every day there is a party going on on the roof. very bad for the people who want to get up early the next morning or have to go to work so that their sleep is disturbed by this. Keycards in the lift/elevator are not workin gprperly. When you insert the card to go up it wont work. It turns out lot of guests having this issue. I contact the front office in regards to the lunch for 21 september because whe needed to check out at 07:00 and wont make it with the breakfast so asked them what their options are. as if it couldn’t be whorse. 1 male young employee who says on the front office at 19 september at 06:30- in the morning ”oooh no problem” i need to check with reservation departement you are a premium member , booked via our website, I can arrange for you to give you a refund for that day and having a take away breakfast isnt worth the money (in a verry rude and innoproriate way), seriously ? this is the way how you talk to your hotel guest ? the take away isnt worht it ??, asked for a confirmation email , he promised me to contact the reservation department and promise contact me to contact me at the end of the day but as expected nothing heard. End of the day i contacted the front office again and ofcourse i spoken to manueala, manuela told me its not possible to get a rufund wich is totally fine but how she know that ? without contacting reservation depa

Perfect location to mix relax with sport and cultural activities. The Hotel has fine cuisine restaurant that deserve to try name FIRE, the SPA is also a nice experience for energizer yourself. Staff efficiency and courtesy complete my comments on of course the room view and confort is fantastic.

Very clean, cozy and good service! We arrived earlier than the check in time thought of just putting the luggage and wander around but they allowed us to check in early and we were so happy. Going to any of the landmarks will require us to take public transports. The good thing was the public transports are very convenient and nearby. The only flaw was that it was very hard to find breakfast place nearby early in the morning other than the hotel. Most cafe open at 10 or 11AM so we had to skip breakfast during our stay there.

The hotel is away from the city centre but it is easily accessible by metro. Staff at check-in and breakfast are friendly. We had a triple room, it consists of a double bed and a sofa bed in a separate area. The first night, there were no bed sheets provided for the sofa bed. We went down to the front desk and sheets were delivered to our room promptly. The next day, housekeeping provided a proper blanket and towels for the sofa bed, which is good. I recommend that they should provide these on the first night for triple rooms though. Our room has a jetted tub, but it never worked in the 5 nights we stayed. Other than this, our stay was good. The room has modern decor and a balcony. Breakfast is great with a lot of options: different types of bread with tomato paste and olive oil to add, scrambled egg, sausages, fresh fruits, yogurt, veggies, coffee, tea and juice. Breakfast staff did an excellent job in keeping all the items refilled very quickly.

The hotel is really nice and modern. It’s in the cosmic style and looks really interesting. The room was clean and bright. I wanna emphasize the breakfasts, there was a good variety of fruits, cheese and kinds of eggs, but it’d be great to add more vegetables to the menu. Location is also not bad, bus station, subway station and train station are in the same area (right under the hotel :) ). The Mercadona supermarket is 5 minutes away.
