Majestic Hotel & Spa Barcelona's facilities and standards have just been officially recognised as a 5 Star. The excellence of the Majestic are the location, tradition and gourmet cuisine of this impressive hotel. The glass-fronted entrance to this imposing neoclassical building is flanked by designer boutiques. A large chandelier hangs in the cream marble lobby, as does a huge tapestry. The public spaces, all displaying contemporary works of art, bustle with corporate guests arriving or leaving for meetings. It was founded in 1918 in an historical building renovated in 2004, offering all kind of services to the guests in a very luxurious atmosphere. Along its history, the hotel has become a symbol of class and the most modern establishments of its category in Barcelona. Moreover, it features an important art collection.
* The hotel is undergoing renovation of some of the guest rooms from 01/06/10 to 01/06/12. The noise will be kept to a minimum and should not affect guests.

Strongly recommend this hotel. Location is unique on the shopping avenue of Barcelona. We were there during the sales and it is worthwhile. Hotel staff makes you feel like at home and the overall services are great. The room was large and we were positively surprised that they are not outdated as some of gtahotelss reviewers have said.
The rooftop pool is a must and the view unbeatable. You are walking distance from any major attractions: plaza de catalonia, Ramblas or Rambla de Catalonia and you are also 1 block away from 2 Gaudi masterpieces.
We had a great deal on their website with a 2=3 in July and found to be a fantastic value for money. As some said: MAJESTIC is FANTASTIC

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Majestice on the last day of our honeymoon. We just finished doing a cruise through the mediterranean and decided to stay one extra day in Barcelona. We arrived at the Hotel Majestic at 9:30am. We expected to have to wait until 3:00pm to check-in to our room. Instead they not only let us check-in, but upgraded our room to a suite. The room was fantastice and over looked the Passeig de Gracia. In addition, the view from the rooftop is fantastic. The location is well situated as well. It is right across the street from one of Gaudi's houses and close to the metro which makes it easy to get around Barcelona. Although the rooms at the Hotel Majestic are a little pricey, it was well worth the money.

this hotel is tops! we had a great room with a princess balcony that looked down onto the avenue , where the sea was in one direction and the mountains in the other. the rooms were very comfortable and spacious. the staff was friendly and courteous, we always had help hailing a taxi when we needed one. the roof/pool area was great with a fantastic view. the bar was very nice, dark paneling and interesting art work.I enjoyed checking out the women and their bags after a day of shopping. we stayed here only for a weekend, and i would certainly stay at the Majestic again. Barcelona is a wonderful place to visit.

Just as reported - a fabulous place to stay! We had a junior suite on a 3 for 2 offer which made the price very competitive. Friendly, helpful staff; late check-out no problem. Superb location for exploring the city and a welcome retreat after doing so. The only down side (if there has to be one) is that there is no air-con in the winter.

The hotel is superb. The rooms are excellent and the location is first class. The restaurant (Drolma) was very expensive. However there are some excellent restaurants/tapas bars close by. I would recommed this hotel highly.

We stayed for three nights in the Majestic. We booked it online at a very reasonable rate. Its location is excellent and the views from the roof are great. The room was a little on the small side but very well furnished. The staff were very friendly. We enjoyed our stay so much that we are planning a return trip in 2004
