Great hotel

Great hotel very modern , lots of great features, the rooftop is probably the best feature with bar and swimming pool, my only negative is that the rooftop bar closes too early but that may be a seasonal thing. Great location, it took us 20min to walk along the beach to get to city centre. the concierge's were amazing both helped recommend some great restaurants. There was an incident with a strange odor in the hotel but I can tell you that its common and have experienced it in many beachfront hotel properties that I have visited to have this smell, more recent was Tampa florida. Night life if you want to party is two minutes away.

This Sofitel hotel is clean, elegant, and very close to the beach. The rooms are immaculate and the bedding is plush. Breakfast has a wide selection of savory and sweet options, and the dining room is light and airy. The only small downside is that it’s a bit far to walk to the Gaudi sites. It only takes about 30 minutes to get to the shops in El Born or Rambla on foot. We even walked to the Palace of Catalan Music for a concert.

I felt a sense of peace and comfort from the moment I walked into the hotel. They were able to check me into my room early - a welcome development after an international red eye. The room (and whole hotel) was not just luxurious but SPOTLESS. Such a comfortable stay. Would 100% stay here on my next visit.
