"Rising dramatically at the end of the beach along the Barceloneta boardwalk, the Ricardo Bofill-designed W Hotel is uncompromisingly modern, complete with reflective glass façade, distinctive sail-like shape, and youthful, clubby interiors. The hotel has a refreshingly informal vibe, with an Ibiza-like ambiance—including sets from international DJs—around the Wet Deck, which is enhanced by the peerless sea views and a private infinity pool. The rooms are modern, decorated in swirling blue carpets and dark woods, and kitted out with funky accent pillows, flat-screen TVs, rainfall showers, and, in many rooms, great views of the Mediterranean or the city."
