Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Generally praised as clean and well maintained (multiple mentions of 'clean' rooms), though some guests reported worn pool towels and mattress issues that need replacement.
Service
9
Staff frequently described as friendly, helpful and smiling; however there were isolated service failures (lost ID, billing errors, lack of apology) that lowered consistency.
Location
9
Location is convenient — short taxi ride to downtown and within walking distance to dining/attractions for many guests, though not always central.
Room Quality
8
Rooms described as spacious and relaxing, but several comments about bed configuration (got two singles instead of a double), bed length/width and mattress condition reduced the score.
Amenities
9
Strong amenities noted (spa, sauna, swimming pool, varied showers); pool praised but a few guests felt the pool was smaller than expected for a 5-star property.
Value for Money
7.8
Multiple guests felt the price was high relative to location and condition; billing mistakes also hurt perceived value.
Food and Beverage
9.8
Breakfast repeatedly described as outstanding with great variety; a few isolated billing disputes at the bar but overall F&B receives very strong praise.
Overall Experience
10
Overall stays were very positive for many guests (friendly staff, excellent breakfast, good rooms and amenities); a small number of operational issues (documents, charges, pool size, bed setup) tempered some experiences but did not dominate reviews.

Pros:

Alles was netjes en schoon. De accommodatie was comfortabel en aangenaam, met goede verlichting en handige USB-oplaadpunten op verschillende plekken. Ook waren er een strijkijzer en strijkplank aanwezig. Alles was goed verzorgd en van alle gemakken voorzien. Een prettig verblijf!

Cons:

Bij het douchen wordt de hele badkamer nat, omdat er geen douchegordijn of glazen douchewand aanwezig is. Daarnaast ontbreekt er een toiletborstel. Dit zijn kleine verbeterpunten die het verblijf comfortabeler zouden maken.

Pros:

The room is spacious. The rooftop is truly pretty. The lobby has a good ambience. That's pretty much it.

Cons:

My key kept glitching thus forcing me to go down to reception. Hot water in my room wasn't working. It was barely above room temperature. They did offer to fix it, but I was there only 2 nights and by the time I got around to reporting it, I just wanted to be left at peace in my room. They sent anyone anyway and they surprisingly went into my room without my consent. I didn't appreciate that at all. None of these are major issues, I still gave an above average review. But for the price you're paying, you should expect better.

A beautiful accommodation with lots of great scenery around
Pros:

One of the nicest accommodations I’ve ever get stayed in. They looked after every detail and the food was all really good. A huge selection of breakfast for anyone. Including a gluten free section of bread and pasty. They communicated throughout my stay on what’s app on I ensure everything was great. The hop on hop off bus is pretty close which is a great way to see the city.

Cons:

The only negative was the price and I didn’t have time to use the full facilities. No fault of the hotel.

Pros:

The hotel was nice, and its location was just a 10-minute taxi ride from downtown. Thankfully, the hotel hosted the Real Madrid football team during our stay.

Cons:

The price is too high considering its location and condition, and the area isn’t ideal for women who enjoy shopping.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel.
Pros:

I really like the SPA. It has an amazing swimming pool, different showers, and a sauna. And it costs very little (additional cost). The breakfast is outstanding and exceeds expectations.

Cons:

We booked the classic room, but because the hotel was fully booked, we got a room with two single beds.
Although we were frustrated by the single beds, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the InterContinental Barcelona. The highlight was meeting the Real Madrid soccer team.
