AC Hotel Irla

Overall, the hotel wasn't bad. However, the rooms have a funky layout. The best way I can think to describe it is that the bathrooms were an afterthought. Almost like they built the room and then said "dang, we forgot to add a bathroom." The bathroom is a glass-walled area where the door doesn't even make a complete seal. If you're sharing a room with someone, you'll hear every sound and smell every scent going on in the bathroom. The glass is also frosted, so you can see everyone's outline in the bathroom. Since the room is so small, it's hard to not "be in the bathroom" with the person actual in the bathroom. There are no very many outlets in these rooms either. There's an outlet on one side of the bed and then there's one by the desk where the coffee maker is plugged in. You have two additional outlets in the bathroom. I came here for my Marriott loyalty but would probably pick somewhere else next time.

Amazing staff at reception and on breakfast, so friendly! Lovely clean rooms, housekeeping don’t miss any requests! Rooms are a good size with comfy beds! Perfect location for walking everywhere :) lovely little gym with sauna! Would definitely come back!

I traveled to Barcelona solo for the first time and chose this hotel, because it was in a quaint area, and away from all the hustle and bustle. I cannot be more pleased with my choice. It is in a sweet little neighborhood with restaurants around but this boutique hotel has the best customer service and I could not thank Sergio and Iris enough. They were both personable, professional, kind and helpful, just exactly what a solo needs when they aren’t sure what to do. Other highlights of this hotel is quite possibly the best water pressure that I’ve ever had and a powerful hairdryer… Two things that are very important. Give this place a try you won’t be sorry.

Very nice hotel, in a very nice part of town. Short walk to beautiful areas and downtown. The hotel staff was incredible! Our room was a little small, but very quiet and comfortable. The health club had enough equipment to get a good workout in. Also, try the breakfast buffet, they will make a omelette for you if you ask.

Friendly welcome, convenient location, comfy bed, expansive hot breakfast, updated decor, nearby restaurants. A few more plugins would have been nice. Personally, I don't judge luxury in square feet, but if floor space is your thing, know the rooms are "efficient."

Beautiful hotel and great area

Located in a calm areas off the main drag, easy to find. Receptions was incredibly helpful and spoke English, as my Spanish is terrible. Four pillows on the king bed as hoped, nice bathrooms. Very stock and standard for an AC in the Marriott family which I liked - got what I thought I was getting. All furniture was nice, no nicks or dings. Very clean. Great place to stay a night or two for business or before heading out to an adventure.

This hotel is situated in a good location and generally has good rooms and amenities. However, on our third night, my partner was awakened at 3 a.m. by a dripping noise and got up to investigate. She found water leaking from the ceiling of our bathroom. We called the front desk, and he came up and saw the same. The front desk person indicated nothing could be done before the next day and provided us with a key to an alternate room where we could sleep without the noise of dripping. We could leave our belongings in our original room until more permanent accommodations to the issue could be made. The temporary room was definitely of a lower standard than our original. The next day we had to leave early for a planned excursion. When we returned we were given a new room supposedly of the same premium standard as our original. It was at least similar in standard but not quite as good. We of course then had to move all our belongings from the original room to the new. In checking with the new on-duty receptionist they indicated that the person in the room above had fallen asleep with water running in their bathroom and significant damage was done to the hotel. Through all this, we got some very tepid apologies but no offer to make things right, no free dinner, no champagne and fruit delivered to the room, no rebate for the night spent in a lower grade room than was booked. In short other than their lukewarm 'sorries' nothing was done.
