Catalonia Barcelona Plaza

We had a view overlooking the plaza but couldn’t open the window due to the loud noise from the plaza construction. Our shower completely flooded the entire bathroom and hallway. We didn’t have any hot water on departure morning shower. Rooms are very ordinary. Pool area is nice and staff at bar at pool was very friendly. Check in and out was very smooth. Very large group at hotel (4/13) that completely dominated the hotel (including lobby) that wasn’t comfortable for a leisure guest.

I stayed at Catalonia Plaza España last Sunday as I needed a comfortable place to spend the day in Barcelona before leaving in the evening. From the very beginning, the experience was excellent. I would especially like to thank the two gentlemen at the reception on Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately, I did not catch their names, but their kindness, professionalism and attention to detail truly made the difference. They kindly arranged an early check-in at 12:30 and, as a thoughtful gesture knowing that I would leave around 19:00, they upgraded me to a beautiful premium room and even offered the parking. This level of flexibility and genuine hospitality is something guests truly remember. The hotel itself is very spacious and elegant, with a magnificent view over the Fira area. My room and the bathroom were absolutely impeccable, very comfortable and perfectly maintained. I also really appreciate how convenient the location is. It is very pleasant to know that there are several restaurants, bars, shops, as well as a swimming pool and fitness facilities nearby, which makes the stay even more enjoyable. This is exactly the kind of hospitality that builds long-term loyalty. Experiences like this are the reason why I will gladly return and confidently recommend the hotel to friends and colleagues. A special thank you again to the reception team for their kindness and professionalism.

Location

Very nice, friendly staff, great room maids.

My 3-day stay at Catalonia Barcelona Plaza was completely unacceptable. We paid $260 Euros for the New Year’s Eve fixed menu dinner, and both my partner and I ended up with severe food poisoning. I was so sick that I couldn’t eat for days and had to go to the ER. Our New Year’s was ruined. During the stay, we repeatedly complained about multiple issues: the TV didn’t work, no one ever came to fix it, the water smelled like sewage, and neither the heat nor air conditioning worked. Since checking out, I’ve called three times trying to speak with management and was told every time they were “not available.” There has been zero accountability. For the price and reputation of this hotel, this experience was shocking. I would strongly advise others to stay elsewhere.

The cleanliness was top notch, I look for this when staying in a hotel. I was really happy with the daily room keeping
