Detailed Reviews
We arrived to normal circumstances in Barcelona March 11 intending to stay until March 18. World events overcame us and we ended up cutting our trip short and leaving Monday March 16. Saturday March 14 the country closed down all restaurants, retail except essential services so tourists were only allowed to eat at their own hotels and starting the 15th we were to stay in the hotel except to go to airport, market, hospital etc. Things got weird quickly. Every member of staff at Le Meridien was exceptional during our stay.
The hotel manager was very proactive explaining the Spanish government's restrictions, the front desk staff changed our reservation and did not charge us for cutting our trip short, the workers at the restaurant, the cleaning staff, everyone was great.
As for regular criteria, loved the neighborhood, very convenient, room was good sized, high ceilings, nicely remodeled. Normally we don't eat in hotel restaurants, but we did and we were very pleased with the food. The nicest people, when things get back to normal go and support them.

We were fortunate enough to stay at this hotel for 3 nights right before everything was shut down for COVID.
Angela from the experience team reached out to me a few days before our stay and was able to provide many recommendations for our first trip to Barcelona. Upon my request, she was also able to upgrade us to a Junior Suite with Terrace, overlooking La Rambla and the beautiful skyline. We arrived slightly before check-in which meant our room wasn't ready but the front desk was very nice about it and I appreciated that Angela and her manager came out to greet us because of the inconvenience (which really wasn't an inconvenience at all!) There was also a lovely note and sweet treat dropped off while we were out.
The room was well laid out and spacious, with the terrace providing an unforgettable view of BCN. The bed itself is comfortable and while I can sympathize with some reviews saying the bathroom may be a little worn, it still has a luxury feel to it overall. Daily deliveries of water was also greatly appreciated. I cannot speak to the quality of housekeeping as I opted for green choice instead.
The location itself is ideal for exploring the city and the hotel provides complimentary tickets to Palau Guell, which is also worth a visit. The location on La Rambla may be too loud for some people but it wasn't a nuisance unless someone was actively blasting music down on the street.
As a Titanium member, I've stayed in many hotels and I can confidently say that this is a hotel with a great location. We will definitely look to stay here on future trips to Barcelona.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
What a lovely 5 night stay. Very nice hotel in a good location. A major subway station (La Catalunya) was close, making it easy to access all parts of town. Just a couple of blocks away is La Boqueria, the market that is a must. Excellent place for lunch. And the little cafe around the corner, BAR LOBO, makes a mean cosmo.
The staff at La Meridien was extremely friendly and helpful. The bellman gave us the lowdown on how to protect yourself from the pickpockets on Las Ramblas, so that was not a problem. The breakfast was included (Titanium perk) and was always fresh with good service. The room (upgraded) was well appointed and clean. The best shower ever! The required COVID antigen test was available at a place just a short walk away (Euro35)
Would strongly recommend Le Meridien when in Barcelona.

Pros: Nice location, very nice staff, spotlessly clean hotel. Ample breakfast choices at the overpriced buffet. Umbrellas available downstairs were a nice perk.
Cons: waiting 15minutes for coffee at the buffet is annoying. No self serve coffee option did not sit well with this caffeine addict. When it was finally delivered it was delicious. Also beware of food labeling it is misleading, “vegetarian “ included turkey in a sandwich our last am.. when I brought it to the attention of one of the staff he explained the veg wraps were finished (not my point... food was plentiful just good luck if you have any allergies or dietary concerns).
Whirlpool was malfunctioning. Disappointing. And annoying that was not made clear when I asked where it was :(.
Complimentary tickets to Palau Güell were promised. At check in (around midnight) I was told that there is one ticket in the room and I could get another the following day from the concierge who is available all day. I tried the following day after our am tour.. concierge was at lunch. Came back later, waited ten minutes while another family was being helped only to be sent back to the check in desk. Waited on line again , spoke to another clerk who finally got us the extra ticket . Not clear if the reservation was for two , and they had wine ready for us chilling in the room why placing two tickets there to avoid aggravation is complicated.
All in all very clean, ample staff but disorganized a bit, great location, lots of breakfast options, we had a good time. Would stay again if whirlpool was functioning, coffee was self serve and price was right.

Dear Meander262195, First of all, thank you very much for choosing Le Méridien Barcelona and for taking the time to share your valuable opinion with us. I am glad to read that our service and location at the heart of the city met your expectations. However, I am disappointed to read about the situations you mention. Please, note that these are not an indicative of our usual high standards of quality and service and we will be reviewing our internal procedures to avoid similar situations in the future and make you feel like at home. If we have the chance to welcome you again, I would like to recommend you our newly redesigned rooms and suites. These count with several new added-value amenities like for example an Illy Coffee machine to make your own Illy espresso, because for Le Méridien, coffee is as important as it is to you. Also, I hope that you eventually had the chance to take advantage of our complimentary tickets and visit “Palau Güell”, the first masterpiece by Gaudí, only a few steps from the hotel. Once again, thank you very much for sharing your feedback and we hope to welcome you again to turn around your experience. Kind regards, Elisa Barral General Manager

This Meridien is in a really excellent location, right on the Ramblas and near all the tourist sites.
Because it was the La Merce festival when we were there, all the hotels in Barcelona were charging crazy rates and the price for a basic room here was around 500 Euros per night, which this hotel definitely isn’t worth.
The first room we were given was extremely tired and most of the furniture was scuffed. It had a view of the adjoining Carrefour roof and there were hardly any sockets. A complete throwback to c2000. As we discovered when we noticed our socks were wet, the carpet had been cleaned not long before we arrived and was still very wet. Reception gave us a new room, but we didn’t even get an apology.
The second room was a step up, was larger, brighter and had been redecorated more recently. Plenty of sockets with a view of one of the Ramblas side streets. Still definitely not worth the price tag.
The “premium” internet they charge 15 Euros for a day reached the impressive speed of 5Mbps, which isn’t really suitable for even basic browsing nowadays. Thankfully the charged was waived.
Housekeeping still hadn’t cleaned the room when we returned after 3pm on our second day, which wasn’t really ideal.
The AC in both rooms worked well, the soundproofing was fine and the black-out blinds did their job. The large bed was comfortable.
Breakfast, at nearly 20 Euros per person per day, was fine but also pretty poor value – if you can be bothered to look for a nearby café you will likely eat better and for a lot less.
Staff were overall friendly, but I would have to be pretty desperate to return.

I am disappointed to know that our rooms did not meet your expectations as our Premium rooms were recently renovated and inspired by half-century modernism. On the other hand, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience related to the cleaning service and air conditioning operation. Please note that this is not indicative of our usual high quality standards and we will review processes to avoid similar situations in the future. I feel honored to read that our associates met your expectations, as our priority is to provide an excellent experience to our guests.

With so many wonderful places to stay in Barcelona I would give this one a miss. The rooms are adequate in a full corporate style, bathrooms are annoying in that the shower is within the bath. The restaurant dining area is like something out of the 1980s with ugly dated and tacky furniture. Food is grossly overpriced and low in quality. Service is kind. But genuinely if you are coming all the way to Barcelona for a holiday look around for something more special - there’s many places better.

Our check in was efficient and all staff were professional and friendly. The gentleman bringing our luggage to our room showed us how to operate the lights and AC . At our request, luggage racks were brought to the room. In room dining had a limited but delicious menu. I especially liked the octopus , grilled Caesar salad with chicken, and brownies. The bed was very comfortable and the curtains kept everything dark when pulled closed. The housekeeping staff always had a friendly smile and offered to assist with anything we needed for the room. The breakfast area in the Centonze Restaurant on the first level was clean and welcoming. The staff were exceptional and very attentive. The buffet consisted of a variety of items including eggs bacon vegetables , croquettes yogurt cereals breads fruit cups , juices and to top it off churros with chocolate sauce.Because of the variety we never tired of the breakfast buffet. We left early in the morning on the day of our departure and a bagged breakfast was prepared for us as we requested. Taxis were always waiting outside of the hotel-even at 6:30 in the morning. The taxi fare from the hotel to the airport was €49.
There is a large grocery store around the corner from the hotel. The room has a small refrigerator but no freezer. We enjoyed the complementary tickets to Palau Guell.which was a 15 minute walk from the hotel and a great place to visit. The Barcelona cathedral was about a 15 minute walk away also. Hop on hop off buses were located within a 10 minute walk and the metro was convenient. We found a self-serve laundry place and an eat-in or takeout reasonably priced Chinese restaurant Feng Wei, two streets away. There was an antigen and PCR Covid testing laboratory nearby on Carrer de l’Hospital.

The front desk staff were very inviting. I arrived quite early and they completed checking, held my luggage and provided me with complinetary coffee until the room was ready. I received a beautiful king suite with wrap around windows overlooking the city and Gothic Cathedral. House keeping was top notch and all members of the staff were polite. The bedding was comfortable and the shower amenities nice. The bathroom is a bit dark, so ladies may want to step into the main room for makeup lighting. I did go down to the bar one evening. They were hosting some type of conference and the attendees were in there. It was quite loud so I stepped across the street for another option.
There is lots of shopping, food and sights within steps or a few minutes walk from the hotel. Overall, a great stay.

I was back to the hotel after about 5 years. Previously we stayed at Ritz or W.
This time I wanted to stay close to La Rambla and this is exactly where the hotel is on.
As in the previous stays I was upgraded to a junior suite. It is a great suite , one bedroom and one living room, very comfortable and impeccably clean . Overall the hotel cleanliness and hygiene is on the highest level.
Location is just around the corner on the northern end of La Rambla. Everything is literally within a few meters: Carrefour , shops , restaurants, the clinic for PCR test, the Boqueria market , and many more.
Yet it is always quite in the room despite the permanent crowd on the street.
The hotel has its own parking space with just 5 or 6 lots which should be reserved in advance. The hotel staff is always happy to park and deliver your car themselves (highly recommended to avoid waiting at the parking gate and negotiating narrow way to the lot).
The staff is extremely polite, nice , smiling and helpful. Well done.
The only minor wrinkle was the breakfast . There was only one staff for several tables and she was very busy . Also the choice was very limited and the pancakes I ordered were not really edible. After the first morning, I opted to have a breakfast at the nearby Starbucks.
All in all, it was a great stay. I recommend the hotel to anyone who wants to be in the middle of action and enjoy the great service and facilities.
This time I wanted to stay close to La Rambla and this is exactly where the hotel is on.
As in the previous stays I was upgraded to a junior suite. It is a great suite , one bedroom and one living room, very comfortable and impeccably clean . Overall the hotel cleanliness and hygiene is on the highest level.
Location is just around the corner on the northern end of La Rambla. Everything is literally within a few meters: Carrefour , shops , restaurants, the clinic for PCR test, the Boqueria market , and many more.
Yet it is always quite in the room despite the permanent crowd on the street.
The hotel has its own parking space with just 5 or 6 lots which should be reserved in advance. The hotel staff is always happy to park and deliver your car themselves (highly recommended to avoid waiting at the parking gate and negotiating narrow way to the lot).
The staff is extremely polite, nice , smiling and helpful. Well done.
The only minor wrinkle was the breakfast . There was only one staff for several tables and she was very busy . Also the choice was very limited and the pancakes I ordered were not really edible. After the first morning, I opted to have a breakfast at the nearby Starbucks.
All in all, it was a great stay. I recommend the hotel to anyone who wants to be in the middle of action and enjoy the great service and facilities.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Le Meridien, mainly because of the fantastic experience in the middle of the Rambla. Right in the heart of Barcelona: incredible to do some sightseeing.
Staff at the front office was very kind and professional, and provided great help at check-in booking us an extra room, as we found the premium rooms a bit too small to stay in with 3 people. Beautiful bathrooms and great beds for a good sleep.
Breakfast was a la carte together with a small buffet. Very kind staff, unfortunately they seemed to be understaffed.
Could definitely recommend!

It was around $22 if I recall correctly.
I was actually offered a discount at checkin and took that option. Turned out not to be smart to have done that since one of the two days I needed up booking a tour that started very early and there was not time for breakfast before heading out.
Breakfast was good but make sure you are going to take advantage of it if you do take the package deal!
Hmmm...sorry. I can't remember.
Can take metro if u do not have luggage
Always beware of pick pocket hooligans
Not when I was there, there is a nice large restaurant across the street, great tapas
Santander nearby
