A solid Hilton experience. This is the second Hilton property I've stayed at in Barcelona. While it's close to the beach, it is not close to the city center or many of the 'Barcelona' attractions. I chose it due to its proximity to the CCIB (convention center) and it was super convenient. Staff was always super friendly, which is always appreciated. I do like that you can order room service digitally, which was especially nice the after I arrived midday after a transatlantic flight from the states tired and feeling gross. There is a little mall across the street, which is nice. I didn't wander too much, but they do have a few little restaurants there which is quite convenient. They also have Purobeach, which appears to be a chain (ish?) of beach clubs with pool access and restaurants. I dined at Purobeach twice, once on my own and once with a group (separate review coming for that). The pool area was good, I spent some time up there my last day. They have a 'tab' type system to order food and drinks-you tell them on the way out what your table number was and they they charge you (either to your room or credit card). Getting drinks was hard-I saw people getting drinks delivered to them all the time, but no one ever asked me if I wanted to order anything. They had a QR code menu, but I didn't see a way to actually order that way. Either way, it's a nice pool area and the staff was helpful when I kept wanting to move the umbrella near my chair to keep me in the shade. The breakfast is also good, though pricey. You can pre-order and it's 29 Euro, or pay about 35 Euro to 'walk in.' It's a decent buffet, with good options, and some of the best bacon I've ever had. The eggs were terrible, though-way too runny. The elevators have the system where you input your floor number and then it tells you which elevator car to get in. In theory this is great, but the elevators were super slow. On check-in day, it actually said they couldn't assign me an elevator so I ended up walking down 13 flights of stairs to get to the lobby (better down than up, I guess). If I was coming back to Barcelona for a convention, I would probably come back here. Otherwise, I would pick a Hilton a little closer to the action-this hotel was nice, but not nice 'enough' to make up for being so far away from the action. read more

How many times do I have to come here and the hotel is still under construction. It's right next to the CCIB which is why I stayed but it's odd for like the past 4 years, it has been under construction (and I've stayed many times). Bars are closed, things shut for private events, whole patio deck closed, rooms under renovations...you name it. It's a slow race to see who will complete construction first: the Basilica or the Hilton. I do come back for it's CCIB proximity and it's close to the subway. If you're not staying for a conference (or even if you are and don't mind being a bit out) staying elsewhere is probably your best game. But if you do stay here, it's A-OK. read more

I stayed at Hilton Diagonal Mar during my August 2024 trip to Barcelona. After being loyal to Hilton for a good number of years, being a Diamond Hilton Honors member at peak, and currently a Gold member, my experience here has seriously made me consider my loyalty and going towards another hotel chain. The location of the hotel isn't the best for the city - it's advertised as being a short metro ride away but I was told the metro station was closed during my stay, so I had to walk to a tram stop, and then change to get onto the Metro. I'd say the location is better suited to families who want a beach holiday, a hotel with a pool, with facilities nearby - the shopping centre across the way and being close enough to the city - not for a city break. From start to finish - my experience here was simply unsatisfactory and it started at a check-in desk, due to a slight issue with the name on my Hilton Honors account, they originally were reluctant to let me check in, and did so on the basis that I would not get my Hilton Honors benefits, this is despite adding the name on my ID onto my reservation and never having an issue at Hilton properties before when travelling in the UK, in Europe and further afield. Despite booking an Executive Room, I was denied access to the lounge because of this discrepancy. The staff seemed to be rude throughout my stay - communication was difficult. I understand there is a language barrier when in Spain, but the staff members refused to read what I had translated for them when they were having difficulty understanding my issue. The elevators in the hotel are awful - you press a button from the outside with the floor you'd like to go in, and it loudly announces your floor and plays a short chain of music, which can be heard in the rooms. They were also slow and overcrowded, despite having four lifts, it felt like they all wouldn't be used at once. I ended up booking two rooms - we had issues with both. In my room, the window would not fully close so the room would have a draft and noise from outside, I had to change rooms late in the evening, originally the plan was to go into a different room for a single night and then change back to my old room once it was fixed. After spending the night in the new room, I asked if I could just stay there to avoid going back and forward as I didn't trust them to fix the issue with the window - instead, they communicated on the phone to "try and fix the issue" even though I just asked to stay in the room - I felt ignored. There was also noise from corridors and a loud family next to my room. Unsupervised Children would mess about with the lifts and water machine (No bottled water in rooms, you're provided with a reusable bottle to refill yourself). I didn't sleep well because of the noise. I was promised they would come early in the morning to repair the window in my old room as the plan was to go back there - in the end, it's a good job I insisted on staying in the new room as the issue wasn't fixed when I returned to claim the last of my stuff. I stayed at the hotel with family, the air-conditioning in their room would not work, which certainly is not what you want in the Barcelona heat and they had similar issues trying to get a repair. Both the physical and digital keys would be inconsistent - my physical key would often flash orange and not let me into my room - meaning up and down the noisy, slow lift. On one occasion, the lift wouldn't allow me to go to the Ground Floor, so I had to go to the second floor, and walk down the fire exit steps - not good for those with disabilities! The facilities inside the room were fine - basic tea and coffee-making facilities, the desk and the bed were reasonably comfortable. There was a US plug socket at the desk which I understand can be useful for Americans - but it certainly isn't useful for non-US travellers who won't have brought the right adapter! The Breakfast selection was insane - they had so much stuff, but again limited to gluten-free. I think they worked on quantity over quality, it wasn't good - the eggs were inedible and had a strange aftertaste and the omelette was also poor. The swimming pool was not cleaned well - walking around the seats would be stained with sunscreen and chewing gum. It just felt careless. The lobby was reasonably impressive though and had some seating, they had free water available sometimes (It wasn't always replaced) and a drip coffee machine (which you must pay for in a tiny paper cup). One thing I love about Hilton is when things go wrong, they always tend to try their best to make it right on the property, but things certainly went wrong here and the staff were just rude and careless. It was a huge let-down. I should have been happy and relaxed on holiday but they made this such a stressful experience. Hilton Diagonal Mar doesn't even deserve the Hilton name. 1* read more

I spent five nights here while attending a conference at the convention center and enjoyed my stay. The rooms were clean, spacious, and cozy. The bed had a nice firm mattress. Despite many large groups that stay here, the hallways were generally quiet. I used one of their meeting rooms on the first floor and found the room to be bright, modern, and well stocked. There was even an espresso machine and cute cups in the meeting room. The location is about 15-30 minutes away from the city center, depending on traffic. The subway and taxi to the city center take about the same time during peak traffic time. If your primary business is at the convention center, this is a great hotel to stay at. If your primary business is tourism, then don't stay here and complain about the distance. read more

Adriana at the front desk was very nice; friendly, polite and accommodating. We arrived in the morning, too early for our assigned check in time but Adriana at the front desk was able to check us in. This Hilton is bigger; they have a nice executive lounge where we liked to go and hang out but we preferred having our breakfast at their main restaurant. The view from the executive lounge is almost a 360 of the area. Jeffrey in the main restaurant always greeted us with a smile; he was astute and anticipated our needs. They have electric bikes you can rent to bike around the area. The train station is also walking distance from the hotel. Overall, great place to stay by the beach. read more

This hotel is very nice. Our room was very spacious, clean and the staff has been great. Frankly, the concierge, helped us with some tour arrangements and we did some through Get Your Guide - a great app in Europe for booking tours! The Hilton has a great pool, bar, restaurant on the 2nd floor called PuroBeach. Good food and drinks. We really enjoyed our stay. Only thing preventing 5 stars is location. We had to taxie everywhere to see anything. About 15 euro to Gothic quarter, 15 euro to Sagrada Familia, etc. But, the comfort, quality, etc. are really great here. read more

This hotel is located in a very walkable location. There are lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. The hotel has a restaurant with complementary breakfast. The food was great. The wait staff was accommodating. The interior was clean and well maintained. I had a great view of the mountains from my room. I did find it tricky to figure out how to turn on the lights. There is a slot by the door to insert the room key. This must be done in order to get the lights to work. Who knew? I would definitely stay here again. They also have a great outdoor bar, which was quaint. read more

Stayed 6 nights in March & this hotel was awesome from beginning to end. Arrived on the 1st day just in time for the executive lounge which has an amazing view with drinks & snacks. The best executive lounge that I've been to. The location of the hotel is just outside of Gothic Quarter but you can get there in 10 minutes by subway which is extremely easy to use and also very clean. We bought a 10 trip pass for about $12-$15 and it also worked for the trolley line which we also used. Front desk extremely helpful with maps & guidance if you have questions. A mall directly across the street w/ restaurants and also some local restaurants close to the hotel. The beach is just a short 5 minute walk so you can't beat the location and hospitality here. Shout out to EDWARD @ breakfast! Can't say enough about how awesome he is for this hotel. Friendly sharing travel stories and giving us advice on places to eat. Every hotel needs an EDWARD and he should be employee of the year. Maria @ breakfast checked us in a few times for breakfast and a different Maria @ the executive lounge went above and beyond. Filling up my glass of champagne/wine while on a conference call. These guys nailed it and set high standards for Hiltons around the world. Definitely going back to explore Spain but making sure we stay a few days here. read more

I would never come here unless I was attending a conference at the nearby conference center or a music festival on the beach. Why? Location. I don't know Barcelona well, but this feels like a nowhere, industrial, not terribly pretty neighborhood far from the center of Barcelona. If you want to take a taxi 20-30m every night to get to dinner in a nice restaurant, and then hope, hope, hope like hell you can find one to get home (which took me 30m one night at 1am -- and no, the cab apps don't seem to work when you need them most), if you want that, then, well stay here. Otherwise, stay closer to town. If you are at a conference at the International Convention Center, then this is a strong option. Like: exec lounge (though they allow smoking which, when the guy across from you is having a cigar at 10am, can be pretty rough), the suite rooms, the view rooms. Dislike: elevators (insufficient, queues), lobby (oddly curtained off), locked doors that have been turned into emergency only doors that would have let you take a more direct route to the conference center. Crowds. 2-3 busloads of conventioneers arrived simultaneously and the lobby was so crowded you literally couldn't walk through it to exit (and those needlessly locked doors on the left didn't help) read more

It's a lovely hotel with an awesome staff! The beds are comfy, the room designs are very nice and the bar area and food in it are far above superior. We had the nicest waitress and waiters. Loved the Tapas we had in the bar area so much I came back to the USA and made them today, they were a huge hit. You won't regret staying at the Hilton Diagonal Mar Hilton Hotel in Barcelona. There's a very nice Mall across the street with great restaurants and great shops to browse. read more

Beautiful hotel! Our suite had a view of the beach and Ferris wheel. The concierge lounge was lovely with outdoor seating and a wonderful cocktail hour. It was very easy to get to the sights just by grabbing a taxi - row of them on the corner - and it was nice not being in the busiest part of the city. It seems ridiculous but the room service pizza was absolutely outstanding! Order it! read more

One would come to expect the Hilton hotel chain to deliver on all levels during a stay and honestly the hotel at Diagonal Mar definitely did do so. First and foremost, this hotel is not one you would pick in terms of being close to the heart of the city, but there are multiple easy avenues to accomplish that task of getting to it. There are a few metro stations nearby, but if that is not your cup of tea, the taxis are quite affordable. One key point is it is located right next to a huge mall, which boasts multiple dining options, and ton of shopping opportunities. From the hotel, you can easily take a stroll along the beach, but I took the views in from the hotel room which were just as spectacular. Shopping and location proximity aside, this hotel is beautiful and very modern. The lobby is large, has a wonderful bar with food options, which is a great meetup location. Fast forward to the room, extremely spacious, gorgeous views, comfortable beds, nice amenities and great shower! It was really hard to pick on this hotel and its rooms, but it does have some cons. First con is this chain will usually be a tad more expensive versus a boutique or smaller hotel chain. Another con is again the location if you are looking for a central location, this hotel is not for you as it is geared more towards a business visit versus tourists. Would I recommend this hotel to someone visiting, it all depends on what you are looking for honestly. I stayed at this hotel at the tail end of my Spain journey, so I just needed a quick one night stay before heading off to the airport in the morning and it clearly fit the bill. read more

45 minutes on the phone with Hilton Worldwide, my credit card, and Hilton Diagonal Mar trying to resolve a charge to my CC, and no one has been able to assist. It had been almost a month now. Even Hilton Worldwide suggested that I file a dispute with my CC since it's been so long. They told me that they didn't understand why it had taken so long. I dont see why i have to file a dispute when it is their responsibility. The front desk always has an excuse. I was told there is no one available on weekends to resolve my issue. Last time I was told, I would get an emai from the supervisor, but I never did. Today, the front person just told me something different, It is so frustrated that as a Hilton Honor, I have to be treated like this, and It's very unfortunate because I did have a good stay. read more

An exceptional hotel near the beach in Barcelona. Free flavored water, three choices, while you wait to check in. There's ample parking. A pool and large deck that was holding an exclusive event with bottle service during a day of our stay. As a Hilton diamond I was upgraded to a sea view and had access to the executive lounge. The lounge has breakfast and tapas at night. The Spanish wine and cava they served each evening was fantastic. Even a crianza (aged wine). The tapas changed nightly. Lots of seating and a great view of the city and the sea from level 15. We had drinks in the main bar. A hotel gun and tonic with a singing bartender added the ambiance I was hoping for in Barcelona. Close to a huge mall there is plenty of shopping and even dinning. The subway is about an 8 min walk and feels safe after dark. Cutting through the mall saves time. We used the exec level concierge to help chose dinner and I would recommend her to anyone. Antonella went out of her way to make sure she understood what we were looking for in dinner and in the drinking experience. She also made reservations for us and suggested after dinner activities. The next morning she was always at breakfast to see how the night went. read more

Great hotel that is right by the beach! If you are looking to stay closer to the tourists attractions though, I would recommend a hotel closer to the city center. The Hilton is a nice and quiet hotel that has views for the sunrise and sunset. They have a lovely outdoor pool area with cabanas so you can relax and order drinks ;). The best part of the hotel was the staff. They were amazing: incredibly friendly, patient, and genuinely nice people who wanted to know what your plans were for the day (and ready to give you recommendations). It was so nice going down to breakfast and hearing everyone say good morning! The breakfast area is very nice as well. They do not change out the food but it was very good. With eggs, beans, tomatoes, chicken sausage, bacon, and fried eggs, it was more than enough to keep you going. They also have an assortment of hams and cheeses as well as veggies and fruits. Also, their bread is amazing! (You can also order omelettes or fresh toast (to die for!!!) from the kitchen) Overall, great stay but a little inconvenient if you are out and want to rest at the hotel for the afternoon. They are right across from the mall though and there is a transportation/bus station right across the street! read more

Hilton Diagonal Mar - Hotel view (sunrise) - Hotels Near Me - Barcelona, B

The staff has been more than accommodating during our stay, and has gone above and beyond for us--even assisting well after midnight for us to find something to eat. The room is VERY spacious and beds are very comfortable. Our view of the ocean has been spectacular and WOW the bathroom...I could live in the tub and just watch the waves rolling in! I highly recommend this hotel to anybody staying in Barcelona! Additionally, it's VERY easy to get a cab out front, and the location is very close to shopping and dining as well as the convention center, which are all within walking distance. read more

Love it! The hotel is near the beach. They have a wonderful pool on the 2nd floor that over looks the street. We paid 30 euros which was a discount of %50 off..lol...regular price for ppl not staying at the hotel is 60 euros:/ but it is worth it. They also have a way of ordering your food and drink using an online service so you don't have to wait. Awesome:) read more

Very comfortable, clean, beautiful hotel with tremendous views. Great location for business meetings and conventions. Easy to grab a taxi to visit historical sites, or to walk! Easy access to beach , restaurants and shopping. The staff members were uniformly pleasant, kind, helpful and seemed to enjoy their work. The elevator was a little difficult for people to work, seemed like people struggle with the badge reader a lot. But it gets you there. The pool was beautiful and inviting but ohhhh so cold, which was the only disappointment of the visit. On the weekends there are parties and DJ's poolside and it's fun to look out at the party and city lights. read more

Beautiful views, great service, comfortable rooms, convenient location next to beach and convention center with easy access to cabs... The Hilton Diagonal Mar was a pleasant surprise for this Marriott Platinum member (yes I cheated on Marriott for the first time) and here is why: Check-in: Luijie was quick to check us in and was sweet and accommodating all at the same time. I ended up going for a work conference at the convention center and my mom and sister tagged along so I needed a bigger room, Luijie swiftly checked us in and upgraded us for $80 more to a bigger room (that can accommodate us 3 comfortably) and with a killer view on a high floor!! Even after checking in he would send me texts to follow up m to see how was our stay and see if there was anything he can do. Even walking through the lobby, he always remembered our names and greeted us every time. Luijie was AMAZING!! Room: we had a king sized room and asked for a rollaway for my sister. Surprisingly the rollaway was just as comfy as our king bed!! Our view was a kick butt view of the ocean and pool. The room and bathroom were large for a European room! There were USB ports all around the room which is great for travelers coming from outside of Europe! Location: Although it was close to the beach and just a short walk to the convention center (which was convenient for me as I was there 3 days) , it was about a 10 minute cab ride to Barceloneta and all the main attractions. There was a high end shopping center located just across the street and there were many decent restaurant options nearby! Oh and there was a taxi stop just in front of the hotel so there were always cabs around (sorry, no more Uber since January 2019). Breakfast: I had breakfast both in the electrics lounge and restaurant and I will say both were very good food and service-wise. Freshly squeezed zumo( juice) , smoothies, eggs, pastries, etc all available! Internet: Even the basic internet service was very good! I used it for work emails/downloads, Skype Business, FaceTime and even play Pokémon Go (yes the lobby is a gym for your Pokemon goers). Yes, the hotel was on the pricey side (close to 400€ per night) but with the service, modern offerings, and comfort. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would definitely return despite having to have an affair was Hilton over Marriott! read more

Nice hotel relatively close to the water. There's a mall across the street that has some decent dining options. The amenities are nice. There is a large pool and sitting area. A nice bar restaurant in the lobby. A great breakfast buffet. The roof executive lounge was also a nice spot to get a snack and some good photos. The only downside was that this particular location seemed a bit disconnected from the rest of the city. read more

Very nice hotel , next to convention center and shopping mall . Clean and friendly hotel with nice staff . The Cava is good and desert was nice . I would recommend staying here to family and friends if attending meeting at convention center, if not here for a meeting I would recommend Gothic quarter area as this hotel is away from all attractions . But it is a 10 min taxi ride to Sagrada Familia Basilica. About (10€) read more

Hilton Diagonal Mar - Cava and chocolate - Hotels Near Me - Barcelona, B

Y'all...I cannot even explain what a godsend Hilton Diagonal Mar was at the end of our 8 days in Spain or how amazing our stay was here! Luckily I had the foresight to know we would be exhausted by the end of the trip so I splurged a little for our last night in the country. After a week of staying in hostels, carting our luggage from place to place, and getting up early to catch planes, trains, and automobiles, we arrived at the Hilton Diagonal Mar just before 9am on a Sunday. Obviously it was WAY too early to check in (or so I thought) but I figured they'd store our luggage while we explored so I made my way up to the front desk. The concierge noticed our luggage (and probably the exhausted look on our faces) and asked if we had just arrived. We had, in fact, just gotten off a 6am flight from Seville. She also surmised we hadn't had breakfast that morning. Ding ding ding. She told us that for a small fee, we could upgrade rooms and that it would be ready for us within 20 minutes. In the meantime, we could help ourselves to the breakfast, which she promised was very good. We were skeptical. We had paid for the breakfast at 2 of the hostels on our trip only to be let down by the limited selections. Still, the idea that we could be 20 minutes away from a solid nap before getting out to explore our last day in Barcelona was too tempting to resist. I paid the upgrade fee, they took our luggage, and we made our way to breakfast. This breakfast was like something out of my dreams. Juice bar (with orange juice squeezed fresh on the spot), cappucino machines, omelette station, so many pastries, meats, cheeses, fruits, veggies, etc. Truly could not have asked for more. We chowed down at an outdoor table enjoying the breeze from being so close to the water. When we went downstairs to check if our room was ready and retrieve our bags, we learned our bags had already been delivered to our room! The room was incredibly spacious with a king sized bed, chaise lounge, and both a tub and separate standing shower in the bathroom. We.were.in.heaven. After a quick recharge in total darkness, we felt like new people and were ready to take on the day. Through the rest of our stay there, the customer service was unmatched. Everyone was SO friendly--from the concierge to the staff clearing plates at breakfast to the man offering samples of fresh juice blends and smoothies. Breakfast the next day was even more luxurious with a mimosa bar. I will absolutely be back! read more

This is a nice hotel and I like the executive lounge view! It has a beautiful view of the ocean. There's evening happy hour from 1800 hr to 2000 hr that has tapas, pastries, fruit, juices and small desserts. They even have an all you can drink white and red wine as well as a Brut cava. If you love olive oil, they have premium extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping or whatever you want to do with it. However, for Diamond members or anyone with executive lounge access, free breakfast is only available in the executive lounge. Eating at the Indigo restaurant for breakfast costs 27 euro. Breakfast is a small basic continental breakfast which includes powdered scrambled eggs, various juices that are bottled and in the dispenser, an espresso machine, cold cuts, and bread in baguette and sliced bread form as well as plain croissants and chocolate croissants. Sending postcards through this hotel costs 2 euro if you're gonna send it to the US. I found out later that just the stamp alone is 1.35 euro, so it may be better to go to the post office yourself. read more

As an elite member of Hilton was very upset with the number of issues and Hotel's response to issues. During my two Night stay I was overcharged, had reservation request for non feather bedding not honored, Broken phone, and despite telling staff to come back as I was getting out of the shower they came in anyway. Hotel is located within walking distance to the beach which is nice. Hotel has a nice pool area however, while the hotel is trying to cater to families pool area is really not suitable to families. Sun beds by pool are available to rent and drinks and food are served pool side Rooms are a good size with minimal furnishings. Rooms have standard amenities including mini bars. Hotel has a nice Executive Lounge. read more

Stayed here using Hilton points for a week in May 2011. The walk to and from the Metro wasn't bad; I'd recommend cutting through the mall across the street from the hotel to make the walk a little shorter. As a Diamond member, I had access to the Executive Lounge, which I hardly ever use in the States. However, we were up in the Lounge at least once a day all week. Free breakfast, and snack/drinks/tapas almost the entire day. Also, the view over the city & the sea definitely didn't hurt! The front desk staff was extremely helpful, and the executive lounge staff were also great when we needed reservations at a local hole-in-the-wall place and I wasn't confident my Spanish skills would cut it. Rooms were very clean, housekeeping was awesome, bathroom was spacious. We had both a stand-up shower and a shower-over-tub in our bathroom, and a wonderful city view. I also really enjoyed hanging at the pool. They play a lot of Sinatra and other retro music...very fun and relaxing. I will absolutely stay here again - because I will absolutely be returning to Barcelona!! read more

I was very conflicted writing this because prior to checking out of the hotel I had originally thought of my experience more as 4 stars. Sure, everything at this hotel is pricy, and the hallway of the floor my room was on smelled of sewage, but up until this point my experience here was pretty good. Staff was generally friendly and spoke English well. The room was really clean and well-maintained (with the exception of the creepy window in the bathroom that shows a little too much of the wrong bits to those that visit the playground across the street!) You can expect your standard Hilton cuisine here. (Think pizza and burgers) The breakfast buffet offered many options so if you plan to stay here multiple days, you won't tire of your food choices. The free wifi in the rooms is pretty terrible, but "premium" wifi is available for about 10 euros for 5 days. There isn't an option to purchase less than 5 days of wifi. It isn't particularly great either, but it is so much better than the free wifi. So, here's where all those minor issues now become a problem - when I went to checkout I just wanted to drop my keys and get an emailed copy of my bill. The front desk staff member wanted to discuss every charge on the bill with me verbally - I was there a whole week for a conference, so yeah, I had room service, and purchased wifi and my friends and I raided the mini bar one night. I knew it was all going to be on there. What was worse was that he shamed me for those purchases. Look, you should be stoked with me. I spent a lot of money over the week at your hotel. Treat me with respect and don't think it is ok to discuss all of this information with me orally in front of my colleagues (who really don't need to know about my finances) especially when I've asked you repeatedly not to. Additionally, he never actually emailed me my bill. I expected more tack and professionalism from Hilton. read more

This time however was by far one of my best stays thanks to Amelia and Thalita at the food and beverages department.

Who still has smoking rooms? Hilton Diagonal Mar. Am I smoker? No. How did you know they had smoking rooms? I was placed in one with no other room vacancy. While I will agree that this hotel is conveniently located for business travelers meeting at the CCIB next door, I do not find tourist value in this hotel. Although it is located near a mall, and a few blocks from the subway, there are much cheaper and better options closer to those attractions if you are a tourist. As for the room, the service, the breakfast and the bar, this hotel is great. The staff is very helpful and fluent in English. The rooms (after the smoking incident), are very clean and the food served at breakfast is well prepared. I had laundry service done at this hotel and was very pleased with the result. The executive lounge on the 15th floor is nice, and the view is great. Remember you too can bring a guest to the lounge! My main complaint is that internet is $75 euro per week.

We are staying for 7 nights due to my boyfriend's conference. Our room in 3 Th floor which suppose to be a basic level is clean but dated. The carpet in the hallways are old and smelly. Every time we step out of the elevator the Oder is so strong and bad. The bed and the sheets are nice and clean. Breakfast is included but not my favorite. Coffee and the orange juice which my favorite part of breakfast in Spain are not good in this hotel. There is no fresh squeeze orange juice or hot strong coffee. Overall is ok hotel compare to the money that you pay. We stayed because the company covers the charges but you can stay in nicer hotels in Barcelona with this amount money. read more

Hilton Diagonal Mar - Hotels Near Me - Barcelona, B

Let's get the most important thing out there: the location of this hotel stinks if you want to hang out in the touristed areas like Las Ramblas. Not only are you in a part of town that is boring, the metro isn't super duper close. I would not recommend staying here if it's your first time in Barcelona--get closer to the action. Why did I stay there? I needed to use Hilton points, plus I've visited before and didn't need to do hardcore sightseeing, so I was ok with it. It IS a good location to be close to the beach. That said, it was always annoying when we needed to get somewhere though...just a pain to have to walk through the mall to get to the metro. There is also a tram that's nearby. (Speaking of the mall--the hotel is across the street from a giant shopping mall. There's a food court and tons of stores.) The other thing that was annoying was the elevator. Oh my goodness. We were on an upper floor and the 4 elevators took FORever, were often packed, very hot inside, and likewise seemed to stop at almost every floor. Get your act together!! Why isn't there an elevator dedicated to just upper floors, like many hotels have??! Buuuuut, everything else about it was pretty good. Our room was great, the pool was nice (although they try to charge you for everything--you can't even sit on the nicer chairs at your own hotel pool without paying! Isn't staying at the hotel enough?!) The Executive Lounge is nice, and has a happy hour with drinks and snacks. The breakfast is better on the first floor though--try the omelet bar. The good news is that you are within walking distance of an ok beach and you can walk a mile to the nice Poblenou area and the beach there as well. read more

What a great hotel, even in the off season. Recently stayed for a long weekend. Hotel is clean and inviting. The staff from the front desk, breakfast, lounge and service all make you feel like your part of an extended family. Hotel is walking distance 5-10 min from a metro taking you down town. Shopping area next door is conveniently located with a market and restaurants. read more

Hilton Diagonal Mar - Hotels Near Me - Barcelona, B

Great hotel if you plan on spending time by the pool and the beach. Also convenient mall across the street.

DO NOT STAY HERE. We booked a summer reservation 60 days out and when we needed to cancel it, we were informed that there was a 90 day cancellation policy. The hotel has been non responsive to our cancellation requests. They are the only hotel in Barcelona that has a 90 day cancellation with zero money returned. We would never have knowingly booked a property, especially during COVID, with such a ridiculous cancellation/booking policy. Hilton Honors has been no help and says they have no control over what other hotels do. Better to find a hotel in Barcelona that actually wants to be somewhat accommodating to international guests. read more
