Hotels With spa in Catalonia, Spain

"Great hotel staff. Very helpful and friendly employees! Always ready to help: with a taxi, with recommendations, with booking tickets. Very good breakfasts, they meet and see you off. The only thing I can say is the air conditioning in the room, I couldn't get used to it and I was cold, the robe saved me 😁😅 Everything else, and especially the location, is great! Very nice Spanish restaurant, which greeted me in a friendly manner even at 22.00😇"

"A short stay for of 2 days was booked with Triip.com for one adult and 2 children under 10, to join us who were booked in a day earlier for three days. Our three day booking was direct with the hotel, half board. The hotel is marked 'adults recommended' and they sure discourage children, by seeking to charge per occupancy rather than simply on a cost per room. The Trip site quite fairly offered the room at the rate for two adults, with children under 12 free, so this is what was paid. Half board was added but at the rate for two adults, which would be greater than the actual hotel rate for one adult and two children, but I was happy to have reserved restaurant secured. Things got messy at check in, the hotel insisting that the room was occupied by three 'persons' as they put it and should therefore be 50% extra, though the room was the same type as the twin we had for two adults. The Hotel also insisted that only breakfast was provided, and tried to argue that the B2B rate from the third party (Trip) was insufficient. I politely pointed out that the discounts provided to third party agents was no concern of the customer, and referred to my booking voucher which clearly stated I had booked a twin room, into which was going 1 adult, two very small children, and that breakfast and dinner was paid for, with the rate for 1 adult being greater than twice the local charge for a child. They were impossible to deal with, and I left the reception angry and upset. I contacted the Trip representative and by that evening it was sorted. Full marks to Trip, zero to the hotel. As for our stay, the hotel is excellent, but with room to improve. Dinner in the Buffet only commences at 8.00, resulting in quite the bunfight if the restaurant is busy. It was on that Thursday, a national holiday, and it was impossible to order wine and beverages after we seated, with a single service person taking orders. We ate our food dry, and finally placed an order for wine and water while eating dessert, some 40 minutes after seating. The same bottleneck occurred the next morning at breakfast, with the four snail paced Nespresso machines totally incapable of dealing with the coffee demands. Worse, all 4 machines overheated and went into 'service mode'. Worse again, these obviously unsuitable barista machines were the only source of hot water for Tea or infusions, but with no seperate hot water dispenser faucet. You had to stand for almost 2 minutes while the machine slowly dispensed through the coffee outlet, a single mug of hot water, to the frustration of the queue behind. This needs sorting, it took ages to get a breakfast beverage every morning, and on the second day I had to return 4 floors to my room and fill my cup from the in room Nespresso maker. I'd advise to bring a travel kettle with you. Otherwise, a fine hotel, but the restaurant problems and discriminatory pricing for children are an issue, so not a hotel for children."

"Very satisfied with the room facilities, very comprehensive! But there is a lot of dust in the room! The waiter responded quickly! 🈶The problem was solved quickly! The room location and floor are very good! The hotel room is very comfortable!"

"Great location, close to the cathedral and gothic quarters. Quiet at night. Design - The hotel boasts fashionable designs and fragrances that go with the vibe. It’s clear that the hotel is managed by a professional marketer. Service - Staff was professionally trained and greeted guests upon entering or leaving the hotel. Amenities - However, the hotel is advised to solidify its marketing prowess with matching operational details. A big issue during my stay was the temperature of the hot water in the shower, which was not stable and fluctuated wildly between chilly and hot. It goes without saying that having stable hot water makes a HUGE difference for the stay experience, especially during winter times. This was a big let down. Also, the toiletries provided were chosen on the cheap and didn’t match the 5-star impression projected by the trendy designs."

"The views are absolutely spectacular! Both from the room and the dining area, the scenery is mesmerizing from the moment you arrive. In that regard, I think it's the best *Parador* I've ever stayed in. The rooms are also quite good, though not excellent. The breakfast buffet is varied and of good quality, featuring local products, which is standard policy for these establishments. The restaurant is also quite good. We had dinner there two nights and ordered different things each time. Our favorite was the beef sirloin, although all the other dishes were also very good. The entire staff is very friendly, and surprisingly quick with service in the dining room and at breakfast. The outdoor parking is free and has six paid charging points for electric cars at 11kwh. We're very happy to have chosen this *Parador* for our stay in the Aran Valley."

"Quite satisfied and overall good, but improvement points are needed in two points. The curious smell in the shower room must be removed. The salmon for a great breakfast smelled a little bad and stopped eating. All of our families were hungry that afternoon. It seemed to be a management that left a regret that I had decided to deliberately eat a deduction with a 100,000-point hotel."

"The whole view of the hotel is beautiful, and it's even better looking out of the room! The room facilities are also good. The breakfast is especially interesting and is a highlight of the entire trip."

"This was my second stay in the hotel. The reception staff was friendly and helpful, David treated us fantastically and gave us two great rooms in a high floor facing the sea and Montjuic mount, where luckily that same night there were fireworks. The rooms were big and very original, the same unique feeling as the whole building that you cannot find in too many hotels. The roof top bar and swimming pool are excellent to chill and admire the beauty of the city. The gym is a bit compact but enough for a workout, and it has a small indoor pool to relax. But the breakfast was for me the highlight. The service was impeccable, preparing coffee for you on demand, and the variety of fruits, cold cuts and different dishes was so good that our breakfast lasted close to one hour. I will go again for sure!"

"The hotel was okay. You have to pay for the sauna and pool, but it's only about 20 Euros, so that's fine. It feels quite new, but the room was a bit scuffed; you could see some peeling paint."
