We stayed for two weeks. Excellent service from the bellmen and waiters. The buffet breakfast was very varied and delicious. I am especially grateful to Judit and Fatima for all their courtesy in attending to my two grandchildren at breakfast time. Thank you, Hotel Barcelo, for making us feel safe and at home!
