 The location is a bit far off from the beach so unless you rent a car or travel by other means it can be annoying walking 15mins or so to reach the first beach The coolest beach are in my opiniln Bogatell Nuova Icaria and the first one after the Barcelona Casino also thats were majority of clubs are No shops on the beach so buy your slippers and beach swiming suit in advance also consider takkng s beach towel aswell unless you want to rent it for 5euros per day depending ln the beach you go this is nothing to do with the hotel but with the experince Be prepared to wait until 3 30 4pm to get into your room check in is very slow due to busy season and lack of more cleaning stuff I guess so if you get there early is nice to do something instead of waiting cuz you will Hotel location is far from any attraction or place of interest from Barcelona so bear that in mind If you smoke get 2 3 packs in advance especially on weekens the Tobacco shops are closed and the bar that have cigarette offer a small range of choice Nothing else enjoy your stay Barcelona is amazing
 The location of the hotel is very good we rented a car and the hotel offered the parking at extra cost 18 euros day due to being booked through booking com otherwise if you go directly through their website is free On the plus side if you book through this website you get a big discount on the spa facilities You get a bar at the ground floor opened until 2am you have a pool on 17th floor and also if you book a suite you get access to the 15th floor vip terrace The rooms are very tidy and cleaned everyday Clean towels are provided daily also though it usually happens around 2 3pm If you arent planing to rent a car there is a 24hr taxi station just in front plus buses and trams as well have the station in front of the hotel Very nice stuff and helpfull although I imagine they have to put with a lot on a daily basis I would encourage you to book a bed and breakfast and no more then that Reason being the breakfast is fabulous with lots of food to chose from and is really worth it otherwise is 18euros per day Im very happy with my choice The waiters from the bar downstairs are great big thanks to Jordi one of them Try the Eclipse bar at the W Hotel the view from the 26th floor is amazing
