Francesc Macia Plaza

Slightly underwhelmed with the hotel. Would advise sing more on par with a low 3 star hotel not the 4 advertised. Staff very friendly and helpful. Cleaning was sufficient and frequent. Biggest disappointment was the standard of room. Very small narrow room, small tv with only one English Channel (Sky News). Bathroom not the greatest and low pressure hot water. Air con worked but often blew in cigarette smoke so had to keep turned off. Very noisy rooms with paper thin walls. Regularly woken up in the early hours to roudy drunken guests. On the whole adequate if visiting the city and not planning on spending any time in the hotel other than sleeping. Great location wise but if like us you want a siesta or some down time in the room, this hotel is not really for you. To reiterate, staff really friendly and the highlight of the stay.

The lady at the front desk (Fernandina) was very nice and helpful, who made our stay in Barcelona exceptional and memorable. My wife and I found your hotel browsing through Expedia by chance. We're very glad we found Dorma Catalonia Plaza hotel, which has a great location in the city! The morning buffet is excellent. Thank you all for taking good care of the guests - it's much appreciated.

The rooftop pool and sundeck were very convenient. Nice local neighborhood with lots of dining and a short walk to the best beach in Barcelona. However there was a neighborhood festival going on at the time and it was very loud music and people partying until 4am every night. Unable to sleep. When I asked to change rooms, the front desk said there was nothing they could do and the noise was everywhere. Lots of people staying in this hotel, very busy, slow elevators. Fantastic breakfast and amazing waiters.
