AC HOTEL BARCELONA FORUM BY MARRIOTT

Like to keep things simple on the reviews. Very nice hotel all in all. Rooms were modern, staff were friendly, hotel very close to a metro for easy access into centre of barca. Rooftop pool with a view over the city was great. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment on that but the satay chicken skewers poolside were amazing! Beers also fairly priced. All in all very happy with my stay. If you want to be able to step out of your hotel and be in the hustle and bustle of Barcas streets this isn't for you. If you don't mind a short walk and 10min metro then I highly recommend

Due to a cancelled flight, I had to find a last minute hotel and manage to book a room here (Thou it was expensive as last minute hotels are) the people at reception was very helpful and kind. The room was great and had a great view of the ocean. The pool on the 13th floor was amazing and spent most of our time here the next day. Can't fault the hotel at all. Would happily stay here again.

The hotel is modern and attractive. The rooms are clean and the staff friendly. The pool is a standout with awesome views of the city and sea. You can also walk to the beach from here. The parking garage is hard to spot, it's across a sidewalk just down the side of the building.

Enjoyed the pleasure of staying here for one evening before going home yesterday. The hotel reception were quite professional, and explained everything as they should. Well done. We were placed on the 6th floor - unfortunately our room had a funny oder, so after speaking to reception, we were placed on the 20th floor. Well taken care of, and again well done Reception team. To our pleasure there was a very cool, hip pool terrace bar, so we could enjoy the sunset, with a lovely drink and the food menu is also quite nice, and well priced. We also enjoyed good service, and did not need to wait long to order and I felt the service was very professional.

I stayed here with my wife and 2 daughters (7 and 4). We are gold members, so on arrival were upgraded to a junior suite, which was really nice. We requested an early check-in and were accommodated since there were rooms available. This was very very helpful. The GOOD: The room was clean, bed was very comfortable and we had a spacious bathroom. The pool is small but we hardly planned to use the pool. The breakfast is good, decent spread but we got it for free as part of our upgrade. The location of the hotel suited us well, we did not want to be in the city center and there is a really nice mall right across from the hotel with some nice restaurants. City center was a short metro ride away. The NOT SO GOOD: Even though the staff was very friendly and nice, they were very inconsistent with their recommendations. Most good hotels have a well versed concierge who can give you recommendations on what to see, what restaurants to go to etc. We noticed similar inconsistency with the cleaning of the room, bath gels and shampoos were not replaced, some days we had 4 waters bottles and on others 1. Overall, the experience was great, I would definitely go back and stay there. The only reason to point out the inconsistency is because it is a small thing that can be improved fairly easily.
