Gran Hotel Torre Catalunya

good view of the city, very near Metro and train station

the kingsize bed need a big top mattress.

The breakfast and the jazz music in the restaurant

Location is bad, it seems almost like an industrial area. The parking cost is EUR 25 / day, but if you go out and come back to park during the 24h you have to pay again as if you hadn't ever been there. Rooms are extremely noisy due to the poor insolation of the windows and glass walls. From the 19th floor I could stil hear every motorbike that would pass by.

the breakfast and the view

the reception, the room sometimes seemed dirty

The hotel was very near the train station and the facilities were excellent for relaxing after a long journey.

Found that the carpets were filthy, really stood out in an otherwise beautiful room. Also the directions were hard to find when it is simply directly across from the main station. Cannot believe that they charge for wi fi access in this day and age!

Large and clean room, large bathroom with separate wc and shower boxes. Free satellite channels. Excellent breakfast, with a lot - really dozens- of different choices, although not included and not cheap (euro 17,60). Near the train station, but also just 3 metro stops from the center of the city.

No pay-per-view on tv, expensive Internet connection (charged per hour).

Staff excellent. Location excellent. Mainline Railway and Metro just across road. Metro T-10 ticket great value for couples. Metro gets you everywhere and service is brilliant. Fab breakfast sets you up for the day. Business & recreation facilities are V.G. Room service food was good. Had 10 days in Barcelona so unlikely to visit again soon, but Gran Hotel Torre Catalunya would definitely be my first choice.

Visual restaurant was overpriced but food was excellent. Nouvelle cuisine style portions.

large room. close to metro station. clean. good breakfast.

Did not like the place!!!

50 cents per minuit telephone. 10 euro for internet per day 6 euro for swiming pool. They tell you free internet but it is only for 15 minuits. They show the pool but forget to tell it will cost you. TV 10 years old and the remote does not work/ Servive was show. the hallways were kept hot to save money. The internets is all ways turing off on you while you are using it. No place for soap in bath room, it slides off the sloped sink. Water in fromt fountain is durty with junk in it, The do not run the fountain. the fron of the building siding is falling off.. The bed are as hard as a rock so they will last a long time so they save money.

We liked how the hotel was close to the train station.

The hotel cleaning staff consistently left the window of the room open, so we would come back to a hot and humid room.

Great staff, large rooms, large bathroom, very close to metro and train station (50m), great location, fantastic view, all was great.

cheaper breakfast, but this is for all hotels in Barcelona.

excellent location, quiet, friendly helpful staff, security, availability of using roof top pool at next hotel , food excellent breakfast good value , view on top floor restaurant . Definitely stay again.

The hotel is very close to the one of the main train and metro station in Barcelona and so is very easy to reach most of the turistic atractions of this great city. We had booked an executive room and when we arrived, we were told there were no executive rooms available so we were upgraded to a junior suite for no extra charge! The room was huge and the view from the 20th floor was amasing - this should really be a five stars hotel!
