AC HOTEL BARCELONA FORUM BY MARRIOTT

After trying a couple of hotels and Apartment in Barcelona, I decided to spend one Night at this hotel and end up staying for 13 nights Modern Hotel with all what you need, specially if you are traveling with Family. if you are traveling with family book a family room, can accommodate 2 adults and 2 kids. here are my feedback - Clean and Comfortable room - Very Professional staff - Next to Diagonal Mar Mall- 2min walking - Next to the beach 10min waling - Next to Metro L4 - 5min walking - playing area for the kids behind the hotel - 5min waling - Restaurant close by - Barcelona tour bus take you from the hotel door. - parking available always - paid parking if you stay more than 7 days it cost 12 euro per nights, which is not bad at all in Barcelona. - bit far away from center of Barcelona but with Metro it will take 20min. - Breakfast free for kids - swimming pool bit small, but kids like it. - fantastic view from the terrace. Defiantly will stay again at this hotel.

Room is very comfortable, the pool is a nice place to spend some free time and to refresh. The view from the rooftop is very good. The hotel is located in a nice area of the city, very close to the tube and to the beach.

Rooms are super nice and equipped with a good hairdryer (1600 watts) and Nespresso coffee machine. The air conditioning was not great - hence the 4 stars. The staff were very helpful. I enjoyed the bartenders! I was disappointed that breakfast wasn't included - as I feel this is the standard for European hotels.

Stayed in this hotel for 4 nights in august. Room was clean, modern and beds very comfortable. It had a tv, hairdryer and well stocked reasonably priced mini bar/fridge. Room had great view of parc del forum. Air con was good and room was quiet, I slept very well all 4 nights. Maid service was excellent room was cleaned every day and towels replaced. Hotel looks amazing inside and out. Bar/ restaurant on 13th floor was great, tasty food and drinks. Views from the oudoor bar/pool area are special and bar has a relaxed, cool vibe. I enjoyed relaxing with a few glasses of wine in the evening listening to good music and taking in the wonderful views of the city. Staff were very friendly and provide an efficient service. Had breakfast 1 morning, at 22 euro it was a bit expensive but with the choice and quality of food it was worth it. In my opinion the location of the hotel is great , away from the hustle and bustle of the centre of Barcelona but only a short metro ride away( metro stop 2 min walk away from hotel) I will definitely be staying here again on my next visit to Barcelona and would recommend it to others. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

It wasn't a good start when we opened the door to our allocated room and found twin beds, notwithstanding that we had requested a double bed with our booking more than 2 months ago. We were told that we should have confirmed the double bed upon checking in (despite it never being an option as we were never asked which type of bedding we wanted when we checked in 3 hours early), and that the hotel was completely booked out and there were no double rooms available anymore. Funny when we asked to speak to the manager, they miraculously discovered a free double room. The room was pretty standard. The rooftop bar and restaurant is very nice but the pool is small and there is a very limited number of sun beds available.
