Excellent for any life occasion.
In my opinion this W, strikes the perfect equilibrium for anyone. There were newlyweds, families with little ones, business travelers, and all seemed to be pretty happy. The perfect location makes it easy to reach popular landmarks, yet shelters you from the crowd. The rooms are adorned with spectacular viiew and expensive furnishing. Eclipse bar offers excellent choice of music and well mixed drinks. Perhaps it all compensates for shortcomings in whenever whatever service. Freindliness aside they could be helpful. The idea is great, the execution is poor

Bad taste in my mouth
Had an unbelievable experience until the last day! Bar upstairs was great. Stephen made great drinks. On the last day I went through my personal belongings to realize that I was robbed by house keeping for one thousand dollars. My money was hidden extremely well which means that my personal stuff was rummaged through. Not something that you exoect from a star wood property. When I told the manager her response was less them comforting. I was basically told there was nothing that they could do. I expected more from an SPG property especially being an SPG member.

Iconic hotel-one of the best in the city
This is a fantastic hotel - modern innovative design with beautiful views of the city, and impeccable service. The hotel is located in the Barceloneta beach area - so,not that central for a lot of the sights, but great for the beach and the Marina area. There is a fabulous pool deck overlooking the beach, with djs playing nightly, and a cocktail bar on the 26th floor serving cocktails with a beautiful view. Great Spa and one of the best gyms I have seen for a hotel. This has to be one of the best hotels in the city.

Beautiful suite - terrible service
Our suite was not ready when we arrived after 2pm; after a 2 hour wait, we demanded a room and received an upgrade to larger suite (they attempted to bill us for the upgrade). Daily cleaning occurred after 5 PM on 2 of the 3 days. Hotel is on the beach, but very far from most major sites (10 euro cab ride each time). Lunch at restaurant was over 125 euros for 3 and mediocre, but b'fast was very good and only 20 euros. Extra bed is 50 euros daily.

Sans regret !!
Excellent hôtel design idéalement situé au bord de la plage & de la ville avec vue magnifique du 20ème étage où nous logions durant notre séjour d'une semaine en mars 2012. Accueil du personnel aimable & souriant.

Pour visiter, n'hésitez pas à louer un scooter qui se gare facilement, est rapide (on se faufile à travers les voitures) & est très FUN !! :-)
