Perfect location if you're looking to tour Barcelona especially if you've taken the metro from the airport! Literally about a 1000 yards from the entrance of a main metro stop (Barcelona-Sants) and just minutes from bars, markets and a Lovely square filled with tapas bars...this hotel offers a lot of convenience for a descent price. AC Marriott (Sants) has a lovely dining and bar area which serves a fantastic breakfast for 16€. Our hotel room we booked was a king bed for about 179€ and that pretty much gets you a basic room with a big screen wall mounted tv, king bed, shower (big enough to fit two people) a small toilet closet and a sink/vanity area and small closet. NOT a big or luxurious room, but it was comfortable, cozy and clean. I was pleased with the room, the location and the cost. I gave this hotel five stars because of: *excellent customer service *excellent breakfast *great location to town, and metro, and taxi *cleanliness *treatment of their Marriott gold members I would definitely recommend this place and I would book this hotel again.

Small hotel near the train station. Perfect for a night if you are arriving late or leaving out early. It is not close to touristy spots so you would need to taxi or Uber. Nice night sleep and nice staff.

Our stay was fantastic. We stayed at this hotel for two nights after spending two nights in Madrid at AC Hotel Atocha. Both hotels were right outside the main train stations so it was super convenient. This hotel is super well located. I was able to walk to so may places (i.e Arena de Barcelona, Plaza España, Blai Street, etc.) or just walk to the train station and grab the metro. There are so many patisseries in the area where you can have breakfast (I recommend Forn Balta, 5 minute walk). I also liked the fact that I can interact with the locals. Everything around the hotel is where the locals eat or spend their time. The customer service was fantastic, everyone was helpful. The room was basic but good enough for what we needed. I would definitely recommend this hotel. If you are planning visiting both Madrid and Barcelona the AC Hotels work great!

Basic hotel. Thats not necessarily a bad thing. The AC Hotel is part of the Marriott family. Hotel has one of the nicest and most helpful staff in all Barcelona. I was only here for 2 night, and i would totally stay here again in future stays. Rooms are clean and spacious, very basic, but well put together. No iron nor ironing board FYI. No laundry facility as well, however there is a convenient laundromat very close by. Overall i enjoyed my stay here.

Great location. Am sad to say I stay w Marriott quite a bit (plat elite) ... the staff was really personable. Back of house staff are pleasant but I wish they would knock before barging right into the room. But then, they just want to make you happy. Bit under staffed at he front desk. Location is good, super access to trains and great little restaurants surround this place. Last trip to Barcelona stayed at the Renaissance Fira... ultra modern, great restaurant, easy access to Metro & airport. Bonvoi

Not too bad!!

This place is simple! The rooms are small and cozy, reminds me of ikea, which is totally fine. The bed was probably the most comfortable one I've slept in during my Barcelona trip... this is ranging from an Airbnb to a luxury $300+ hotel, so I think I've finally recovered from the jet lag. My favorite part was the breakfast buffet! Cheeeeeese and bread, a vegetarian's delight! It's a bit overpriced if you're a vegan tho. Also, this place is very clean compared to many US hotels. Even tho it's a high volume hotel - right by the metro and train station - it is still super organized and clean. I def recommend this place if you have extra points to spare.

See all

This was the last hotel we stayed in during our Spain tour. And it was one of the best ones. It…read morehas a spacious lobby, which is beautifully decorated. Staff is helpful and speak english. Room was clean, big with a beautiful bathroom. The nerd in me was impressed by the computer panel which controls the elevator system. There are 4 elevators for use. On each floor outside the elevators is a touch screen computer panel in which you select where you need to go - floor number or restaurant name. The computer figures out the elevator which can take you to your destination fastest and displays the number on the screen. After the display is shown the elevator arrives within seconds. The floor number is pre-selected when you step in. You cannot select the floor from inside the elevator. This was a very efficient system and I wish all hotels adopt it. They also serve delicious breakfast and the spread is huge. Every single thing that I tried on the breakfast was of excellent quality. The servers even come to your table and ask you if they can bring you coffee or juice. The empty plates are immediately removed and the tables cleaned. L1 metro line starts from the 'Hospital de Bellvitge' stop which is opposite to Hotel Hesperia. That gives you the advantage of pick your seat on the metro journey. If you are taking the metro to/from the airport, you'll have to change from L1 to L9 at Torrassa station. Airport is about 10 minutes away by taxi, so you might not want to go the metro route. By metro, hotel is about 30 minutes to beach or La Rambla street and 1 hour to Parc Guell. So it's definitely not in the center where you can walk to the happening places.

The room was spacious, with the biggest bathroom/closet area I've ever seen. The elevator control pad asks your destination and lets you know which car to use. The curtains are controlled with the push of a button. Everything feels and is luxurious. And as of the time of this review the price is incredibly good value. This hotel is located a quick walk (less than 5 minutes) to the Hotel Bellvitge metro stop.

TLDR: Come for the rooftop views of Barcelona, not so much for the stay…read more While Barceló Raval's rooftop offers one of the best panoramic views of Barcelona, the hotel itself is giving knockoff of the W. They try to give off that sexy, mysterious vibe, but as soon as you step into the room, the green ceiling, cheap fixtures and damask wallpaper give it away. The hotel is reasonably "affordable" for its location (near the Gothic Quarter and La Barceloneta), but definitely in a sketchy area. I highly advise walking outside the hotel at night, as you'll find the rough crowds your parents warned you about. The nearest metro station is about a 10-minute walk, and to get there, you have to cut through some of the sketchiest alleys. I booked through Expedia and was upgraded to a room with a view, a bottle of mini wine & an extra bottle of water. My amenities weren't so great from the moment I opened the door. Since my room was pretty high up, the room was stifling & those views were blocked by a stainless steel mesh. FYI: your room requires a key card at all times if you're trying to use electricity, which includes air conditioning. The shower initially felt luxurious--spacious with a giant waterfall head and solid water pressure--followed by lush bath towels, but that impression faded once I noticed the pockets of mold and grime in the corners. Sleeping was also a challenge since walls are thin and anytime the guests next to me entered their room, it sounded like someone was entering mine, which kept me paranoid and on high alert. Rooftop: the rooftop not only offers panoramic views of Barcelona, but also has a bar and pool, though hard to even suggest the pool is an amenity since it's more so for aesthetic than functionality. On the roof, it's not an open floor plan, so you'll have to walk around the building to get a full 360 view. For those who are height deficient such as myself: prepare for obstructed views because of the high railings (great for safety, but not so much for those under 5'3).

Best 360 view of Barcelona located in el raval. Reasonably…read morepriced drinks with an amazing view! Dj available weekends to get the party started !

Great area for Business stay, clean, simple & convenient. Room we got was upgraded w/ patio & mini living room & kitchenette area. There's NO Bellman, so if you have lots of bags, they'll just give you the luggage cart that barely fits in the elevator you might feel a little claustrophobic, lol.

We had a junior suite that had a bedroom and living area and they brought us a rollaway bed for my daughter. The bathroom door didn't have a lock and it was glass so anyone else in the room could see inside if they wanted. I really liked the enclosed balcony, it had a table and chairs and was like you were inside and outside at the same time. There were shutters you could open and close to your liking but watch out! Pigeons kept trying to get in and one got stuck between the shutters on the room next to us. The room also had a nice espresso/coffee machine and tea. We had to call down a few times for extra towels, toilet paper and coffee but they brought it right up. We had breakfast included with our room but never actually went. There is a grocery store and a few restaurants within walking distance and the metro was about a mile. It wasn't in a real close location to everything but it was easy enough to get where you wanted to go.

Stayed here at the end of a work trip for four days…read more The Good Great location within walking distance of anything and everything. Beautiful, well-appointed building, lobby sitting areas, restaurant, etc. Staff were friendly and very accommodating with bag storage, delivering bags to our room before we returned, restaurant recommendations and more. The rooftop is big with pool, bar and a number of seating areas for a 360 view of the city. Relaxing place to sit with a drink. Spa in basement is nice with all amenities. You have to reserve use and it's capped at 30 mins. Rooms are decent size allowing for suitcases and still moving around room. Bathroom is clean and has everything needed including heated towel rack and bidet. Although robes weren't included we found some at spa we used for the remainder of our trip. Lobby is very spacious and comfy, and there is live music in Thur-Sun. Great place to relax with a drink after exploring all day. Breakfast was extensive and a nice start to each day. Included made to order as well as plenty of ready made options for all palettes. The Not as Good We reserved both a superior and classic room but couldn't tell the difference for an additional 130 euros. The front desk said the superior had "more light." Potentially but not sure that was described as difference for what we paid. The rooms lack power outlets. Nothing by bedside. USB by desk but no USB-C or Int'l plugs. We had phones plugged in behind chairs, tea kettle sitting on floor, laptop in bathroom... The subway is underneath the hotel and even though we're on the 4th floor it was loud with lots of vibration. We had Do Not Disturb on for our entire trip but staff entered regardless and made up room. Not a big deal but surprised us and meant we had to put our belongings away every time we left not knowing who would enter when. Overall it was a pleasant stay and we would come back but many hotels we passed by looked like good options as well.
