Tired and in need in renovation

Reviewed Aug 1, 2022
Family stay for 3 days in July.
The hotel is in a great location for some of the highlights in Barcelona, if you intend to visit La Rambla it is a taxi ride or long walk away.
The hotel staff were generally friendly and very helpful.
The hotel itself seriously needs updating to be considered a 5 star property. The rooms while large are very dated with some dubious design decisions like the glass panel between the shower and the bedroom? If you visit the bathroom at night light streams into the bedroom and wakes everyone up!
Our room had some odd holes in the floor covered by the carpet that I kept catching my toes on as well.
During our stay we were out for a whole day and on return to our room it hadn’t been made up or towels refreshed necessitating a visit to reception to request this. Reception were very apologetic but really should’t need to do this in a 5 star property. So we ended needed to be out of our room again for a further period of time.
Also during our stay our floor had a very strong smell
of cannabis near our family room, not the best family experience.
The hotel has a nice pizza restaurant attached but lacks an evening bar space (or any that we could find) to sit down prior to retiring in the evening.
Overall a pleasant stay but not 5 star as we were expecting.

Service was extremely helpful by Victor throughout the stay. Always willing to help and get taxis for the families. Plus incredible view from the room. Breakfast was also excellent. The location of the place was also very good.

Very dated architecture with no charm at all. Humidity smell in the room. Room cleaning not done at all if no disturb sign removed at noon.
Rooms on street side to be avoided by all means, the traffic noise is unbearable
Clearly overpriced considering all this

Melia continues its tradition of shocking service. Reception could not tell me if I had another room for this evening (I was part of an event) despite it being requested on Monday as I wanted to avoid checking out twice.

When the event company got involved the staff remained unhelpful so I now have the inconvenience of having to book somewhere else that actually wants customers.

In addition, a 5 star hotel tends to have showers that work properly, not the case here. And replenish things such as milk.

The same level of service is received in Paris so definitely avoiding in the future.

Note to hotel, I haven’t checked out as I had to rush back to the room to pack and then jump on a coach in order not to miss my meeting.

Hotel was very nice, room was spacious, large bathroom, friendly staff. Surprisingly , the pizza in the restaurant was top notch. The neighborhood is cute, half a block to Diagonal. You can taxi to downtown, Tibidabo, and Barcelonetta for 10-15eu. Our room overlooked the front entrance/ park, and it was very noisy throughout the night. So if that’s a thing for you, request a room away from the front. Also, the elevators to the rooms are really close to the front doors and there is no security check or requirement to present your room key so anyone can walk in and access the elevator. I would recommend the hotel look into upgrading the elevator security. Overall good experience.

Room tip: Taxi stop is across the street, sometimes slow service due to neighborhood location.

We appreciate your beautiful and positive comment and we are very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for the suggestion about the security but with all respect we would like to inform you that there is always security in our hotel, perhaps at the moment you mention, our security staff was doing lobby patrol and that is why you did not see him.

Kind regards, we reiterate our appreciation and we are entirely at your service for anything you could need.
