An expensive & optimistic trip to Barcelona turned into a nightmare making me never want to visit the country of Spain in general. My first day, I was recommended by the “concierge” of this supposedly upscale hotel a restaurant when I asked to eat at a nice steakhouse similar to what I’m used to at home in the Washington DC area. He recommended 1881 Sagardi by the pier. I go dressed in a modest black one piece jumpsuit & Birkenstock slides. Nothing was ever mentioned about a dress code or anything of the sort. I get there & I’m turned away for the bogus reason that I was wearing “athletic gear”. Shocked but I obliged because that’s their right to have such policy. I come back my last night in Barcelona day dressed in a maxi dress & they say I can’t have tapas at the bar because it’s a private event. I then ask to be seated for dinner. They say the kitchen is closed. It was around 10:30pm and the place didn’t close until midnight. At this point, I knew what was going on. If I had read their reviews I wouldn’t have even bothered. They were simply looking for any excuse to deny me service because they do not like tourists (xenophobia) & racism. My hotel sent me to a place known for bigotry & it ruined my entire experience. I am holding them accountable as they sent me there. But I should have known better as the concierge also gave me incorrect directions everyday! Leaving me to rely on Google Maps and getting lost. Humiliating.

One word….. EXCELLENT Staff - exceptional Breakfast- Delicious Bar- Great Room- was outstanding

Not really great location for exploring and the rooftop is not that great.

The staff demonstrated top-notch professionalism from the moment we arrived by taxi until the time we left. We truly felt valued and important throughout our entire experience. A special thank you to Asim for making us feel so welcomed and special.

Decent hotel. Nothing exceptional. Underwhelming food in general at main restaurant and The Roof (breakfast for 37 euro daily).

Good location, staffs are very friendly.

My room was utterly flawless, as was the service. The Edition doesn't take you for granted. You really do get the quality that you expect for the price. Kudos to the staff and also to the on-site bar options! I'll be going back again for sure! Highly recommended!

I just yesterday left this delightful property ideally perched on the Gothic Quarter and found my stay relaxed, well cared for, in excellent surroundings, a delightful and observant staff and a choice I would make again in a heartbeat. As with many top tier properties the staff is what sends it over the top. Speaking of, make sure to check out the rooftop which is fantastic if open and the Punch Room with its selection of light fare, long list of Punches and other libations. First floor restaurant, room service and both venues mentioned served consistently top notch fare with multiple options. Not inexpensive. But you feel you get what you paid for. A good place to stay based on my experience. The service feels sort of akin to a Four Seasons. A compliment I would not often make.

Ok

Hello, I recently stayed at Barcelona Edition. We booked 2 rooms, one for myself and for my parents to celebrate their 50th year anniversary. Based on my previous experience staying at the Edition hotels and being a loyal Marriot Bonvoy member, I convinced my parents to stay there the last 5 nights of their European trip. They couldnt sleep from the noise from above floor the first night and notified the hotel and they promised to change their room which never happened! Instead they brought them some cookies!! The towels in the room were dirty and smelly and hotel was notified also. We spent over $1000 for each room per night which is not exactly cheap, but the experience turned out to be an awful one for my parents and I at their 50th year anniversary. We repeatedly mentioned to the hotel and they are not happy with the room and noise and the overall experience but they barely did anything. I’m extremely disappointed with the whole experience and bringing my parents there and regret the decision to book Edition Barcelona.

Staff Wash very profesional
