We had an enjoyable stay at the Edition, however, it was a slightly disappointing start.
We arrived late morning and had a reservation for two rooms. I am fully aware that we were ahead of the 15:00 check in, but we asked staff if there was any chance we could check in earlier, even if it was for just one of the rooms. They told us that they would try their best and get in touch if we could check in earlier. We told them that we would sit at the hotel’s restaurant and confirmed contact numbers so they could reach us easily. I had walked past reception a number of times between that time and 15:00 but the check in agent did not mention anything about a room being available at any point and I therefore assumed that it was simply not possible to check in early. We proceeded to have lunch at the hotel restaurant. When I went up to reception at 15:00 and asked for our room keys I was given the room key to only one room. I explained that we booked two rooms. The associate acknowledged that and said that the other room had already checked in early. I informed her that that was not the case and that we were still waiting for both rooms. She then found the second set of room keys and said that her colleague would have tried to contact us but wasn’t able to get hold of us. That might have been the case but considering the fact that we hadn’t left the grounds and had made ourselves clearly visible to the staff at all times, it was extremely disappointing that a little more effort was not made. It would have started our trip on a much higher note.
Overall, the hotel was lovely. The rooms feel new and looked after. The overall decor is on the dark side with little natural light in the corridors. The rooms have big comfortable showers and our room had a lovely little sitting area by the bay window overlooking the front of the hotel.
Location wise, the hotel is perfectly situated for easy walking access to all of central Barcelona’s sights. It is next door to the Santa Caterina market as well as plenty of restaurants to dine at. The hotel’s rooftop restaurant has fantastic views but seating is limited and it gets very busy. The small plunge pool is more for effect than swimming but no doubt makes for a good cool down during the hot summer days.
Breakfast, served at Bar Veraz was great. It is served a la carte and for inclusive rates, you can have anything you want. Everything was served freshly and to order.
The only other thing that we struggled with, and I imagine this was more a technological issue, is that whenever I used the Marriott app to request something for the room, always stating the room number, by default it was always delivered to the main room on the reservation rather than the room I specified in my request. It was no big deal as we had rooms next to each other, however, I didn’t know that things were being delivered there.
Overall, it was a good stay. Barcelona has a plethora of great hotels and although I would consider returning to the Edition, I would also be happy to explore other options.

I have waited FAR long too long to write this review but that is where quarantine has helped - I have time!
So to cut to the chase, we have been back to Europe twice, stayed in Autograph collection hotels and other upscale Marriott properties. None have achieved the superb combination of location, staff, cleanliness, food, drink and attention to EVERY detail as the Barcelona Edition. El Born District is perfect. I spent a night on Las Ramblas at the Meridien prior to my wife joining me at the Barcelona Edition. I can tell you that Las Ramblas is something not to miss however for an unforgettable taste of Catalonia I would recommend El Born district. Just the morning espresso and evening cocktails enjoyed on The Roof that overlooks this colorfully alive part of the city, make it all worth it.
The staff. I wish I could remember all their names. Every one of them seemed like a friend and familiar face after the 5 days we spent there. Funny story, one morning I spilled coffee on my wife on The Roof. Within minutes of retreating back to our room a staff member politely followed up and made sure my wife was fine and offered to take her clothes immediately to the cleaners. One of dozen examples of excellent, personal, above and beyond service.
Do not miss the punch room! I never could find it so on day three I asked for assistance. It's actually very well hidden. The cocktails and local Catalan bar tenders were such a joy.
Our room was always cleaned when convenient for us. No annoying knocks at the door at inopportune times. Upon returning you could tell someone concerned with fine details and personalized service had tended to our room.
Suffice it to say we can not wait to return to one of our favorite European cities and definitely our favorite hotel.
Thanks for everything! Rick Sukolics

Stayed for four nights at this hotel. Wasn’t sure what to expect but was blown away by the service levels of the staff. The two ladies at front desk who checked me in at 730am were beyond helpful and friendly. The doormen never failed to assist with questions and say hello every time I went in and out. The concierge were also super helpful with directions and restaurants. The room attendants were so on top of cleaning my room that I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel to anyone in barcelona for comfort, convenience and excellent service. Is located by subway, hop on hop off bus and beside market with great fresh food and great little restaurants. Cannot wait to go back again and this hotel will be my go to hotel. Thanks to everyone for making my first trip to Spain so enjoyable.

We spent the new year here. The receptionist Katia was super helpful. She even personally looked for my daughter at the roof top to deliver a small new year gift to my daughter, which made my daughter super happy and had a memorable stay. All other staff were friendly and helpful, including those in the restaurant.
The hotel room is nicely decorated, boutique feel, just a bit small compared to other hotels we have stayed in Spain. The bathroom size is big though, which makes the ratio a bit uneven with the bed area. The location is great, super close to a market, Barcelona cathedral, Picasso museum, Gothic quarter, etc. Taxi from this hotel to Park Guell costs about €10.
The rooftop bar is nice during day or night, I found the service at the bar was a bit slow during my two visits there. For a better view, I recommend the roof top bar at the nearby Colon hotel, where you get a nice view of the cathedral.
Breakfast was included in our booking, got to choose an ala carte dish and a drink, and buffet selection of bread, fruits, cold cuts, etc. The ala carte dishes were very good (had the egg Benedict and Shakahuka).

Fantastic location by the gothic quarter with lots of places to walk to nearby. Metro, bus and taxi options also all just outside the hotel, and a little kids playground outside if you have a little one that needs to burn some energy. The rooftop terrace has amazing views (+ plunge pool) and a bar for drinks.
You don’t get breakfast included with Marriott platinum loyalty, which is a shame and the rooms are on the small side (though that’s not uncommon in Europe),but otherwise everyone is friendly and helpful. Check-in was slow on my stay but hopefully just a one off issue.
Would recommend for the location and rooftop alone if you can find a good price (we stayed 3 nights on points).

I am a single, 30’s something, health and fitness conscious well travelled woman, familiar with many of the luxury hotels in Europe.
I recently discovered the Barcelona Edition Hôtel. I loved it. It is nature meets modern. Walnut walls and neutral sleek architecitural furniture. Thoughtful window benches in many of the rooms, great for reading and watching the passing parade.
The Edition Hôtel is located in the trendy upscale El Born neighbourhood. A fabulous walking area with many shops.
Bar Verez is the hotel’s informal restaurant, opening at 7am daily, and serving market fresh produce for breakfast lunch and dinner. The food is healthy and nutritious.
The unique Punch Room serves daily free bespoke alcoholic beverages for its guests to sample. A great place to socialize and meet new people. What also makes this hotel unique is their free weekend entertainment. They had cabarat during my stay.
The staff never sit. They are always on their feet trying to help you. They are incredibly attentive.
Thank you manager, Tony Alvarez, for the memorable experience. I will be a returning guest.
Jan.

This is definitely not a luxury hotel. I am actually surprised that Marriott put their name to it.
The rooms are tiny - hardly space for any luggage and the reception is very basic. We went out one day at 8am and when we returned at 5pm our room had not been made up.
The roof top 'restaurant' really isn't a restaurant as there are very few tables - you are supposed to eat dinner sitting on a couch. Breakfast service in the lobby restaurant was rather disastrous. The staff were in chaos and we waited 20 mins just to get a cup of coffee - when our food came it was stone cold.
I realize in the big scheme of things that these are not maojr issues but the hotel is not cheap and if you want to charge the prices you need to deliver!

This hotel offers everything they promised. I really recommend this hotel when staying in Barcelona. I stayed for 3 nights and the service is out of this world, the staff is very nice and helpful. The breakfast is amazing and so is the incredible Rooftop of the hotel. The only minus was that all orders on the rooftop took some time even at times when there are not many guests there. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very nice and the best thing is the Air condition which is completely silent. The quality and the nice people working here made me love my stay here.

Had a quick stay here at the end of my Spain trip and enjoyed the experience. Hotel got my reservation date wrong but was able to resolve it quickly and put me in a relatively spacious room. Luxurious robe, bedding, and amenities in the room, and lovely bay window with a view to the city. Also enjoyed a great breakfast here but I wouldn’t recommend buying it in advance like I did. They have a great breakfast menu, and it would cost less just to order at the restaurant.
Hotel is located away from the main road so most taxi’s won’t stop right in front of it. Special shout-out to Yannick who was extremely attentive to incoming guests; he spotted me getting off the taxi across the street and was able to help me with my luggage. 10/10 for service!
It’s not a big property but nicely decorated; to me the neighborhood was slightly ghetto compared to when I stayed around Diagonal but it’s very central.
A great place to stay if you have a little extra to spend on accommodation.

What a wonderful stay we had at the Edition. We first had a room with terrace that was so pretty and comfortable. We had breakfast included with our rate and a lovely room it was, The rooftop bar was the high point for an evening wine.....
But the best part of our stay was the incredible staff... so welcoming and attentive. We loved the whole experience so much we ended up booking an additional 2 nights, our room was not available so we ended up in a very pretty suite.
This hotel is located near the old town, and a great location for exploring this beautiful city and local tapas bars.
