Hotel Miramar Barcelona

The ABSOLUTE WORST hotel experience of my life.||I booked this place for my friends and family for a week, expecting a five-star experience. Instead, it felt like a cheap motel pretending to be luxurious. From the moment we arrived, we realized the hotel was undergoing major renovations—a detail that was never mentioned on their website or communicated to us beforehand. This was incredibly misleading and downright unacceptable.||The renovations meant that key facilities, like the spa, were completely inaccessible. Yet, we were still charged full price, as if we were staying in a fully functional, high-end hotel. No compensation, no discounts, no acknowledgment of the inconvenience—nothing. The lack of commitment to guest satisfaction was shocking.||As if that weren’t enough, there was NO room service, NO bellboy, and absolutely NO basic hospitality. After a long day of shopping, we had to drag a trolley full of bags all the way to our room by ourselves. Completely unacceptable for a so-called “five-star” hotel.||The rooms smelled horrendous, like something had been rotting for weeks. The odor made it impossible to feel comfortable or relaxed, and it completely ruined the experience.||Honestly, there’s nothing here that justifies the insane prices they charge. It’s a complete scam, and I am beyond disappointed. Save your money and your sanity—stay anywhere else but here.

This is a very nice hotel. The balcony is huge, the view is spectacular. Overseeing the harbour and parts of the city. Watching the sunrise is outstanding. If you get up early enough... :-)

Great place to relax. Perched on a hill with GREAT views of the cruise port and city. Not far from the airport. Most shops are about 1/2 mile walk down the hill. The staff is very professional and helpful. Facilities were nice and clean, but slightly worn. We enjoyed our stay very much.

SCAM ALERT: I dare to say this hotel is a scam. The rooms seriously need refurbishment, lots of things don't work. But what I find unacceptable is there was NO HOT WATER the night we arrived. Really bad after full day of travelling. So we could shower only the next morning. The next night THE SAME PROBLEM! You spend full day in scorching sun, very sweaty, and can't take a shower. You could NOT call reception from the room phone, it kept saying the number doesn't exist. I had to call reception via public phone number from my phone. They promised to send someone to sort it out, but nobody arrived. When I tried to call the reception again later, they REJECTED my call. The next morning I said we're leaving the hotel. They refunded us the upcoming booked nights, but refused to refund the first two nights. I find it unacceptable to pay for a hotel that does not have basics like running hot water and functional reception desk to deal with the guests. I contacted the hotel after our stay and demanded again full refund, as we had to change hotels in the middle of our stay. They didn't even respond. So I am taking legal action against the hotel.

We stayed here during our honeymoon trip to Barcelona, and had a most wonderful stay. We had the privilege of enjoying a room upgrade with a terrace that provides a beautiful view of the garden, the port and the sea. We also received a complimentary bottle of cava. We had a very warm treatment and want to thank all the staff especially Esteban, Maria and the director for making our stay a pleasant one. We hope to stay again anytime we are visiting, hopefully the spa will be open and ongoing renovations completed.

At check-in we didn’t had in general good experience, especially its on my birthday and vacation, there were some hospitality we suggested to improve. However, the hotel actively offered compensation with cava and sweets,so we could still enjoy our holiday. We appreciate the after care and problem solving from professionals.

Really nice hotel in a great location a very short taxi ride from the centre of Barcelona but high on the hill so as to give not just great views but some real peace and quiet after enjoying the hustle and bustle of Barcelona.||Having read some negative reviews about the hotel was a little concerned but shouldn't have been, was completely reassured from the moment we walked in. The hotel is well maintained and quite stylish. The hot water I see referred too many times is a slight issue, it took forever to come through so maybe people weren't patient enough and this does need to be rectified as it did take several minutes to get hot but beyond that slight delay we enjoyed a wonderful long weekend at the hotel. Breakfast was great and so was the outdoor terrace. Beyond breakfast we didn't eat at the hotel for no other reason than we wanted to enjoy the best Barcelona had to offer.||When we come back to Barcelona, we will be staying here again.

I was really worried about staying here after reading the reviews! I needn't have worried as they do not in any way reflect was we came across when we stayed. The hotel is modern, clean and on the hill so the views of Barcelona are phenomenal. The staff were friendly, accommodating and couldn't do enough for us. Our room was spacious, clean and every day when we came back there were complimentary chocolates waiting for us! The swimming pool area was clean too. Please don't worry about staying here as you will have a lovely time!
