Just returned from an amazing stay at the Hotel Majestic. Beautiful room overlooking Passeig de Gracia, gorgeous marble bathroom, HUGE breakfast buffet, breathtaking views from the rooftop bar. All incredible. But it is the STAFF that made our stay. We had a series of emails before arrival helping us with restaurant recommendations/reservations and a hair salon appointment for me. When we arrived we had early check-in - an unexpected but very welcome treat. Every day the concierges helped us with maps, directions, a car rental, etc., We were greeted personally and warmly - we felt like royalty! Marta in guest relations was especially kind to us - she made us feel like we were the only guests at the hotel. We bumped into the GM - Pascal - as we were leaving, and he too, was gracious and warm. The neighborhood is upscale and all that, so I should mention that, too AND you can walk to La Padrera and Casa Botllo - STAY AT THE HOTEL MAJESTIC you will be thrilled you did. We were and we are already planning to return.

My wife and I just stayed a week in the Hotel Majestic and enjoyed it very much. We stayed in Room 731, which had a partial view of the street, with a door leading to a small balcony on the façade of the hotel. There were two single beds side by side. The beds were very comfortable. Each bed had two pillows, a large one and a smaller one. The headboard was made of black leather. On each side of the combined bed there were two wall mounted lamps, one of them for reading. There was a small table on each side of the bed.

The room had a wall to wall carpet with a gray color. The room was decorated with a striped wallpaper and one side of the room had blackout drapes with a similar design of stripes. There was a black classical desk with convenient electrical outlets over it. Beside the desk was an upholstered chair covered with a grey fabric. Over the desk were two wall lamps. There was also a large Samsung flat TV set over the desk and the TV had many international TV stations. At one corner of the room were two upholstered arm chairs with a grey color. There was a small round wooden table beside these chairs.

The bathroom had a toilet, a sink and a large walk-in shower. The bathroom was clad with grey marble, making it elegant. However the marble could also have been ceramic tile that simulated marble. Nowadays one cannot tell the difference. The shower had a hand held shower and also a very good rain shower. There were two closets for clothes and these had many hangers. One of the closets had a full length mirror. A third closet had the minibar.

The room was quite large and comfortable. There was no noise at all from the street and we could sleep well in the room. We were very satisfied with the room.

Beside the elevators were large spaces with side tables that had two large Chinese vases, with blue and white designs. These vases were quite beautiful and elegant. Another place had a large Chinese dish with a beautiful design.

The El Patio Restaurant was where the breakfast buffet was served. This was a large salon adjacent to the garden, with plenty of greenery. The salon was light colored and the columns were faced with mirrors, that made the room quite elegant. There were two side rooms where the food was kept. At one corner there were two cooks, making the fried eggs or omelets that the customers wanted. There was a very wide variety of food and bread, fruits (especially strawberries), and pastries. A very special pastry was the pistachio torte that was topped with strawberries. This was very delicious and a cook told me that this was a special recipe invented at the hotel. There were many waiters and waitresses who were very attentive and gave very good service. There was also cava for those who wanted it. At the entrance desk there were many Spanish and English language newspapers. This was one of the best breakfast buffets I have experienced in Spain and Europe.

There was a rooftop terrace with a very small pool. There were very comfortable chairs and tables on the terrace where one could order food and drinks. The views from the terrace were very impressive. On one side you could see the outline of the Sagrada Familia Basilica.

The staff of the hotel impressed me because they were very friendly, attentive and helpful. All of them had smiles on their faces. You could see that they were all very well trained. I did not see any grumpy person on the staff. All of the staff wanted us to have a good time at the hotel. I think this factor is the most important for me when I judge the quality of the hotel I stay in. All of them were dressed in black uniforms. All the staff spoke English. There were several young people from other countries who were trainees, and they were all pleasant to talk to.

The hotel is located at the Passeig de Gracia, the most sophisticated street in the city, with many fashionable stores nearby. The street is the 5th Avenue of Barcelona. This is the best area to stay in Barcelona and it is the reason I chose this hotel. It is completely safe and one can walk to the Plaza de Catalunya, which is downtown. The side streets are filled with small and interesting boutiques. The street also has many of the important modernist buildings that the city is famous for. Among them are Gaudi’sLa Pedrera and Casa Batllo. Near the hotel is the Casa Lleo Morera (Passeig de Gracia, 35), which has recently been opened to the public. This building is one of the masterpieces of Lluis Domenech i Montaner, and I urge readers to see it.

I have two other places to recommend to readers. One of them is Enric Rosich Macarons, located at the small Bulevard Rosa mall (Passeig de Gracia, 53), which is across the street from the hotel. The store has the best macarons in Spain! The best buy is the box containing 24 macarons with many varieties, and this costs 30 euros. I am a macaron fan and buy them everywhere I find them. I was recently in Paris and bought boxes from three famous brands. I have to say that the macarons from Enric Rosich are better!

The last place I recommend is a tapas restaurant located about three blocks from the hotel. It is the Cerveseria Catalana (Calle Mallorca, 236). This restaurant is famous for its tapas and the service is very good. It is not expensive and we paid about 40 euros for two persons. The place was so good that we went back a second time to try the other tapas we had not tried.

In conclusion, I will definitely stay again in this hotel on my next trip to Barcelona.

My only complaint about the hotel is that our room had only 6 clothes hangers total in the two closets. Hangers are very inexpensive and I expect that a 5 star hotel will have many more hangers. I hope that the hotel management will correct this situation.

I arrived very early but the gentleman who attended to my check in was able to get me a room ahead of time, very warm welcome and a great first impression. I had a deluxe room on the 2nd floor, large comfortable room but with a view of a wall ! They were full so there was no possibility to move. Breakfast is served in a large salon with different zones for 'Sweet' 'Salty' & 'Hot' ... it was quite confusing, probably a better idea on paper. However, great selection of everything you would want, well presented.
I also had a Spa treatment with a very good therapist, first rate facial.
Low point - Our room wasn't made up and at 6pm we were still trying to get our room serviced .. it was an oversight but it's a hefty room rate so unimpressed with housekeeping.
Great location, fantastic shopping with leading luxury brands on your doorstep. Spoilt for choice for restaurants and cafes within walking distance to the hotel.

Dear Ms. SAC40, I would like to thank you for choosing Majestic Hotel & Spa and for sharing your detailed opinion about us on TripAdvisor. I am pleased to know that your recent experience at the hotel has been memorable and that you have especially enjoyed the comfort and spaciousness of your room, our spa treatment and our convenient location. Moreover, I am delighted to know that the early check in we provided you and the professionalism of our staff were of your liking. However, I regret that the view from your room was not according to your expectations. Unfortunately during your stay we had full occupancy and we were not able to provide a complimentary upgrade. Please note that we have a wide range of room categories with lovely views of Paseo de Gracia, so I strongly recommend you to book a higher room category during your next visit which will revert into guaranteed success. Regarding the inconvenience you have experienced with our housekeeping department, please rest assured that I will personally follow-up with them in order to investigate what may have happened and take the necessary corrective actions, as it is not indicative of our hotel´s standards. I hope to have the immense pleasure to welcome you back. Kind regards, Pascal Billard General Manager
