The Barcelona EDITION

We stayed one quick night at the tail end of our Spain trip. So glad we did! I loved where this hotel was located as it was next door to the Barcelona Cathedral and near some really cool Christmas markets. Also it was really easy to walk around the area and see tons of sights. We even walked all the way to the beach area from here.
The check in staff were absolutely amazing and so kind. The concierge heard me asking questions and immediately helped with sending us to a great bar near the water. Our room was perfect! Of all the luxury Marriott's we've stayed in, I'd say this had the most comfortable bed. The shower and bathroom were amazing. Although it's a luxury Marriott property it has a boutique small cozy vibe. Definitely would stay here again.

This was our second stay at The Barcelona EDITION in a month, and it was every bit as wonderful as the first. The service here feels warm and personal, and Lourdes went above and beyond for my husband’s birthday. We returned to our room to find balloons, an incredible chocolate mousse, a chilled bottle of cava, and a beautifully curated selection of Le Labo products — one of the warmest and most thoughtful surprises we’ve had at any hotel. Maria was just as gracious and attentive throughout our stay. Between the welcoming team, the stylish rooms, and the consistently polished experience, this hotel continues to impress. We’ll be back again soon.

Staff

Stayed in mid Nov for 5 nights. Late booking and paid around $450 nightly. My review is based around recent stays and the price paid.

Location: Excellent, right in the middle of El Born, lovely neighborhood. Lots of foot traffic, restaurants, shops, live music, and night life. There were protests on one of the weekend days but I never felt unsafe.

Property: Great, pretty small hotel all things considered, everything looks to be fairly new and well maintained. The on property restaurants and bar were pretty small but had good options, although with all the food options around you’d be crazy eating at the hotel imo. Rooftop lounge has great views of the city but Sagrada Família is blocked unfortunately. No on site spa.

Room: Excellent, booked a Deluxe King, didn’t get an upgrade (Marriott Plat) but wasn’t looking for one either. Room’s a bit small for 2. Furnishings were spotless and modern. Water pressure was too weak for my liking and there seemed to be a weird range of softness for the towels but other than that no complaints. Bedding and toiletries both wonderful.

Service: Excellent, with a few staff members going above and beyond. The hotel proactively alerted me of scheduled protests and offered excellent suggestions. Room cleaning did a great job every day and the sweets they leave in your room are excellent. Laundry service was prompt and professional.

Overall at this price point I’ve rarely had better experiences since the pandemic anywhere. This was a definite highlight in a long string of mediocrity from Marriott and a no brainer for Barcelona.

Nice ambiance and cozy vibes!

Lovely feel to the place and rooms

Das aussergewöhnliche Innendesign dieses magischen Hotels gefiehl uns sehr. Die Lage ist Top, Personal übertreffend zuvorkommend.

If/when I go back to Barcalona, this is where I'm staying. The hospitality is incredible - they are ready to give you recommendations at a moment's notice, leave you hand written notes and goodies, and make sure everything is taken care of.

The rooftop was a dream. I think we spent 4 hours up there when we first arrived - the drinks were delicious, and the bartender was super knowledgable.

The room was beautiful, clean, modern and cozy.

We didn't get to eat at the restaurant, but everything we saw looked delicious. It's location is also prime! You will not be disappointed.

Location! Location! Location! Unique blend of luxury & local charm! Amazing city views from the Rooftop bar. Walking distance to Barcelona Cathedral , aPicaso Museum & a Santa Caterina Market close by! A true unique gem in the city!

The Hotel itself is lovely and perfectly located but the staff is exceptional. Everyone is first class in terms of hospitality and service, including those in the restaurant. Each staff member we interacted with went out of their way to make a special occasion trip even more special. They are attentive, friendly
and always willing to assist. Our stay at the Barcelona Edition made the trip a five star experience.

Beautiful hotel and great service. A little pricey but a great experience. Nice breakfast, rooftop bar, and punch room (cocktails). Located in the Gothic quarter in a "happening" area. Only negative are the trash dumpsters outside.
