Mandarin Oriental Hotels in Barcelona

I have stayed many times. If I have friends to go, I will definitely recommend it. The location of the hotel is very good. It is very close to La Pedrera, Casa Batllo and Plaza Catalunya. We all go shopping on foot. About ten minutes away. Barcelona is very beautiful, the weather is also very good, it is very comfortable to walk around

Great hotel, superb location, lovely room. Plentiful breakfast and helpful staff. We stayed with friends for 3 nights and could not fault so pleased we stayed here ! The gothic quarter was in our opinion the best area we loved being so close to the beach and the lovely hidden Tapas restaurants that all came alive at night. The staff at the hotel were so lovely and helpful and our room was large with a fridge, air conditioning and great waterfall shower - would stay here again.

Pros: Great location, near a metro station, cafes and restaurants Rooms are clean Great bed and shower Nice lounge area and pool on the roof top, although maxed out during busy times in the afternoon. Courteous staff Cons: No sauna, only a small steam room No kettle or fridge in the room Lack of space to hang towels to dry. No air conditioning (air con is centrally controlled and is set too warm for comfort)

I really like this hotel. It's by the sea. It's very comfortable to eat breakfast and look at the sea view. The only downside is that the deposit is a bit chaotic. Fortunately, I figured it out at the end of the check-out. Those who go abroad must pay attention to the check-out: foreign hotel pre-authorization It is not returned immediately, so you have to double check, I have encountered pre-authorization and finally turned into a deduction

Great apartment, very clean and well kept. We had breakfast included which was excellent, really good choice in a buffet style and served to 10.30am. I've given a 3 for location only as we prefer to walk and see the city and it is around a 40 minute walk to the main sites, however the metro stop is 2 minutes away, taxis and buses are also two minutes so don't be put off. It is excellent for FC Barcelona being only 15 minute walk away.

Great music, great vibes , and great Mo!!! He provided us with the best time ever. Loved this place and the the people were so welcoming ♥️ A great night and would definitely recommend the club on the rooftop!!

Position of hotel quite good, near to different restaurants and bars. The terrace with swimming pool it’s nice for summer. The room was not smelling good and the view of the room was towards the swimming pool, so we could not open the curtains otherwise other people could see us

I've stayed with this hotel for a number of times now, I would think about 7 times also before covid. The company I work for has also sent quite a few others to this hotel over the years. After this last visit I can say that it will probably not be the case anymore. To be honest, I felt like I was annoying the staff at the reception, it was always with a quick, condescending way that I was given answers. Like I was getting on their nerves. I paid almost 1.100 Euro to stay 1 week. In that time, the phone was broke, my door would not shut properly without slamming it, the room STANK !!! of sewage (I was told because of the pool filter or something and I was directly next to the pool basically in room 721 - the cleaning lady spoke no english so that's the info I understood), the breakfast was not to great standards; never was there bacon, the boiled eggs cold. The coffee machine broke, so the waitress was so angry that she was slamming chairs and saying angry stuff in spanish loudly about how management never takes care of the machine; she dropped all kinds of glasses and plates in the kitchen; then the cook came out and looked at me and rolled his eyes and shrugged (how do people in service actually work like this???) . It was unrelaxing and not worth the price at all. The only helpful and sincere person I met there was the girl at the reception who always asked how my day was, and also the room cleaning lady (the elder one with glasses). I was not even offered ANYTHING in response to having to sleep in a stinking room with no phone. I thought maybe someone would say to me ”sorry about all the inconvenience, have a wine on us” but not even that!! Only the next day I was asked if I wanted to move (I declined only because I was traveling to Valencia for 3 days on that day and I was told that afterwards it would be fixed so I didn't want to move if it would be fixed. But when I came back, only the phone was fixed - the smell was still there and the door I still had to slam). Also, my credit card was charged for a night on the first day of my stay, even tho my company pre-paid the whole stay in advance and it was confirmed. I had to wait several days before it was booked back to my account. At the checkout I was not asked once how my stay was. I would have otherwise told the guy there directly. But maybe he knew I would say something and chose not to ask anything. He was the most condescending of them all anyway. He never freely said Hello or Good bye. Only interested in himself. Horrible person and not sure how he can work in service! When he reads this he will know who I am, for sure. I did not have a welcoming or pleasant stay there this time and next time I and my company will choose another hotel for this or any other stays. If you feel too secure and think you have enough guests, then think again. Covid isn't gone and one day you will be surprised how quickly guests can leave and go somewhere else. One should never feel too stable bu

I had already stayed in that hotel in April 2013 and altogether it was a rather good stay. The bedroom I was allocated on that occasion was comfortable and peaceful so that scarcely any noise was audible. The rest of the conditions regarding that stay were also good. I decided therefore to book again in that hotel for three weeks during which I had to be in Barcelona, namely from July 16th 2020 to August 6th, except the 21st since that day at night I had to be somewhere else for personal reasons. My stay this time was quite the opposite to that referred to. As a matter of fact, it turned out to be a nightmare thus causing me to decide to leave the hotel on July 21st and book in another one for the rest of my stay in Barcelona. Upon check-in I was allocated the bedroom 405. I was cold in that room albeit it was summer time and the temperature outside was higher than 30º C. After switching off the air conditioning machine there was still a draft of cold air which was very annoying and harmful. I complained about that what made them let me change the room, allocating me that number S02. That new room was all right as to the air conditioning and, besides, the first night it was peaceful so that I could sleep with no trouble whatsoever. Notwithstanding that, on the following day one of the rooms next door was allocated to some people who behaved like beasts. They used to come back to the hotel at midnight or later screaming as if they were possessed by the devil and once in the room they continued shouting and moreover they bumped on the walls in a foolish way. When I went to complain at the front desk the following morning the receptionist in charge of the relevant service at that moment, whose name is Alexandra, just behaved in a nasty and despicable way. She hardly listened to me and interrupted me constantly. It was altogether very unpleasant. Another trouble I had to endure was in relation to the safe in the bedroom. On July 18th it ran out of battery. There wasn't anybody at the hotel who could change the exhausted battery by a new one. I had to wait for two days for a technician to come and proceed to the relevant replacement. The fact that nobody at the hotel knows how to change the safe batteries is utterly unbelievable and ridiculous. Meanwhile I had to walk around Barcelona with all the money and other valuables in my pockets thus running the risk of being robbed, the more so if the fact that Barcelona has become a dangerous city is taken into consideration. The receptionists advised me to leave the money in the safe anyway since, as they said, nobody would enter it if I left the relevant sign on the door latch for the room not to be cleaned up. I left the sign in the stated way but I didn't dare leave my money and valuables in the room with the safe little door ajar as it couldn't be locked down. It wouldn't have been the first time that a burglary takes place at a hotel. As a consequence of the mishap referred to by the way the bedroom
