Description

An elegant city centre landmark, the hotel's majestic neoclassical façade never fails to impress passers-by. It was built in 1919 and was totally refurbished in 2001 without losing any of its grace. In fact, it was brought up-to-date and now offers bedrooms furnished in an old-fashioned style, but with all the necessary modern conveniences, including hotel-wide wireless internet. This hotel has been a favourite of the likes of Woody Allen, Orson Welles, Salvador Dalí and musician Xavier Cugat. The Restaurant d'Hotel Caelis offers Mediterranean and Catalan cuisine and it is open to the public. Buffet breakfast is available daily at Diana's Garden.

TOTALLY NOT WORTH THE PRICE!
By ,
While this hotel is in a nice location, we paid over $300 for a nights stay. We had 3 couples to book, all at the same time. 2 of the couples got a room with a window, 1 got a balcony with a great view....yet we all paid the same price. We stayed in #516. It smelled musty and was not really clean. The covers & pillows had a clammy/damp feel to them, and the floor needed to be cleaned. The room has a good deal of space, but does not give you the warm feeling like the pictures imply. There are 2 places in the hotel to get food, if you are there at the right hours. We did not order room service, as it was way too expensive ($16+ Euros for eggs & toast). I was unhappy with the overall experience with the hotel. I would not recommend it. Also....if you do go, remember to take your washcloths...as you will only get towels & a robe. You will get the usual shampoo, soap, lotion, & shower cap in your bath. Our shampoo had been used halfway and someone added water to make it look like it was full. I will end on a positive note....the food and the service in the little place down stairs was good.

A good experience
By ,
The Hotel Palace in Barcelona must have been a world class hotel some time ago, there is evidence of that throughout the building. The rooms are spacious and kept clean. The hotel rooms and service is very good, unfortunately in my opinion, they have not invested much in the building in a long time, which is a shame for the architecture is exceptional. This is a great hotel, but not a five star hotel, it is more like a three and a half to four star at best. It is a bit on the expensive side, but...everything is expensive in Barcelona. Overall, it was a good experience.

Superb Hotel!!!
By ,
We went to this hotel for my husband's 60th birthday on 22nd January this year, what a treat we had. The hotel is superb, the staff very friendly and helpful and the food was beautiful. The restaurant settings for both breakfast and dinner are lovely, the choice and quality are second to none. You could not ask for a better location for a city hotel, this is in the centre and all the attractions are within walking distance or the bus is only up the road. All in all a highly recommended hotel which lives up to your expectations.

Will never go back!
By ,
Creepy, seems haunted. Small rooms, old, corroded pipes, slow water flow in shower.And we had a Junior Suite! Battery in TV remote dead. Definitely not a 5 star hotel - 3 star at best. We arrived in the evening and got out of there first thing the next morning and were charged for an additional night due to their 24 hr cancellation policy. Did not matter - we had to get away from that place. Yes, it's the Ritz we are talking about!

Luxury Experience in Modern City
By ,
I liked the "old world" feel: fancy, extravagant, and lavish experience in a modern, fun, bohemian city. However, with so many hotels in Barcelona, you can stay at a much cheaper place and save your money on other things, such as restaurants, or sightseeing. I went on business and it worked great for that. However, I did find that it needed some renovation, as it seemed like one of the first big hotels in Barcelona.

Not a great value
By ,
This 'Ritz' Hotel is not affiliated with the Ritz Carleton Hotel line, and this was apparent in the less-than-great service we received there. The hotel itself is nice, but the rooms left something to be desired in this price range, and lacked ample soundproofing. All in all, not a bad experience, but certainly not what we had hoped for. Location of this hotel is good, but I'm certain there are better values in Barcelona.
