Renaissance Barcelona Hotel — Hotel in Barcelona

A Heartfelt Review of Renaissance Barcelona Hotel Carrer de Pau Claris, 122, L'Eixample, 08009 Barcelona

I’m beyond thrilled to share my incredible experience at the Renaissance Barcelona Hotel, where we conducted a two-week program for 62 participants. This hotel didn’t just provide us with a place to stay – it gave us an experience that felt like home, right in the heart of one of the most vibrant cities in the world.

First, let’s talk about the location. Situated on Pau Claris in the heart of Barcelona, the hotel couldn’t be more perfectly placed. With high-end stores, halal restaurants, and supermarkets just steps away, you couldn’t ask for a better spot to explore this stunning city. From its central position, everything from iconic landmarks to charming streets is just a short walk or ride away.

But while the location is amazing, what truly makes this hotel stand out is the exceptional hospitality. I am genuinely blown away by the warmth and kindness of the staff, and I feel compelled to call out some truly outstanding individuals who went above and beyond throughout our stay.

Our journey began with the wonderful Berta Amenós, our sales representative. Berta is an absolute gem – not only is she incredibly kind and flexible, but she was also instrumental in making sure our program ran smoothly. She helped us navigate Barcelona like locals, finding buses to landmarks, offering great recommendations, and even securing a generous discount that made our stay feel like great value. She truly made our experience special from the very start.

The reception team deserves a huge shoutout as well. Guillem, Montse, Ricardo, Johanna, Zhenya, and Marc always greeted us with warmth and made sure our needs were met, no matter how big or small. From room service to last-minute printouts, they were always ready to assist with a smile.

A special mention must go to the Welcome Boys – Faisal, Omar, Javier, and Daniel. These gentlemen were absolute treasures, helping us with luggage, boxes, and always greeting us with smiles that made us feel at home. Faisal in particular was a huge help with any questions I had about the city, and our conversations were always a delight!

The restaurant team went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, always ensuring we were well-fed and taken care of. Whether it was breakfast, lunch, or special requests, Olivia, Manuel, Paola, Marc, Augustin, Laura, and Rosa Maria made sure every meal was exceptional. The food was consistently delicious, and their hospitality was unmatched. Hernandez from the IT team was quite helpful, from setting up projectors to solving any tech issues on the fly, he was a constant support and ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing us to focus on our work.

And last but certainly not least, the banquet team—Barbara, Athena, Gabi, Jordi, and Jose Maria—were nothing short of spectacular. I may have been a little demanding with last-minute changes and requests for room setups, but they handled everything with incredible patience and efficiency. They truly felt like my personal team, always there to help and make sure everything went off without a hitch. I honestly can’t thank them enough for their support.

With this heartfelt review, I urge anyone planning a meeting, event, or holiday in Barcelona to choose the Renaissance Barcelona Hotel. Not only is it a beautiful hotel in the perfect location, but the amazing staff makes it so much more than just a place to stay. They genuinely made us feel at home, and I can honestly say this hotel is now my home away from home in this incredible city.

Thank you, Renaissance Barcelona, for making our time here unforgettable! You have my highest...

The Renaissance Barcelona is very nice, albeit slightly pricey, hotel located in the center of everything you will want to do in the city.

Our room was on the 10th floor and included a king-sized bed and a large "marble" bathroom. There's a good-sized TV, but we never used it.

Housekeeping was fantastic and the bartenders were extremely pleasant.

There's no concierge lounge, but the 8th floor terrace is a nice feature with it's open air seating, bar, and foot-soaking pool. We were there during the European heat wave of July 2015 and since the terrace is in the sun most of the day it was nearly unbearable to sit out there, but it would have been a great amenity to enjoy in slightly cooler weather.

This hotel is one block away from the ritzy Passeig de Gracia shopping district, and sits one diagonal block away from a metro station (
