Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be in a super remote location, about 20 Euros away from Barcelona city with a taxi, which was a bit of a downside. The rooms were amazing and very clean, but the noisy water pipes were unexpected for a 5-star hotel. The restaurant lacked coziness, and I had to ask for shampoo, coffee, and tea daily. The food was decent but not excellent, and despite booking a room with terrace and mountain view, there was no view to enjoy.
The hotel is a mixed experience. The rooms, although spacious, have noisy water pipes and don't live up to the photos. The remote location makes it challenging to access Barcelona without a car, leading to pricey taxi rides. The restaurant lacks coziness, and basic amenities like shampoo and beverages require a struggle. The food is decent but not exceptional.
Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were beautifully decorated and offered a lovely view of Barcelona, especially stunning at night. The service was friendly, and while there were minor issues like clearing the breakfast buffet promptly at 10:30, it was pleasant. The location, though a bit distant from the city center, was perfect for those ready for a taxi ride, and it's not far from the cruise port. The dining experience varied, with wonderful views but disappointing options in both restaurants. The hotel facilities were adequate, offering a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers clean rooms with necessary amenities, although not as fancy as in the photos. The remote location is ideal for those seeking peace, but taxi expenses to Barcelona are a drawback. The service is pleasant but falls short of high expectations for the category and price. The dining experience is average with a mix of Spanish and continental dishes. The location outside Barcelona is great for a tranquil stay, though transportation can be challenging. Facilities are satisfactory but not outstanding.
The hotel offers stunning views over the city and mountains from its high location on top of Tibidabo. The rooms are beautifully appointed with top-notch linens and L'Occitane toiletries, featuring a turndown service with Lindt chocolates, slippers, and relaxing music, making the stay amazing. However, the dining experience was not up to par with limited options, while the location is perfect for those willing to enjoy a taxi ride to and from the city.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and well-appointed, complete with plush towels, robes, and bedding. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff ready to assist at a moment's notice. The location offers great views of the city, though transportation options are limited. The dining experience, while delicious, lacked variety and was a bit pricey. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming experience with a few minor drawbacks.
