"Open-plan designer rooms have fantastic views through floor-to-ceiling windows, and facilities are first-rate."
Michelin Guide "This hotel designed by Ricardo Bofill is located in the city's port area. It comprises of two glass bui ldings: one a cube, the other a huge sail rising impressively above the Mediterranean."
Concierge "At 26 stories high, architect Ricardo Bofill's glass-clad, sail-shaped W Barcelona hotel is a real head-turner... The most beach-minded of all of Barcelona's hotels."
Fodor's "Features throughout the hotel, such as the infinity-edge WET pool, a Bliss spa, and the Whatever/Whenever Service, add to the lush trappings." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Popularly known as the Hotel Vela (the sail hotel) for its billowing form, this sumptuous five-star option enjoys unparalleled sea views."

Gayot "With a Bliss Spa, a SWEAT fitness center and a WET outdoor heated pool, this destination is rife with signature features of the W hotel chain."
Afar Magazine "Only steps away from Barcelona's Barceloneta beach, the W Barcelona, has more to offer proximity to Barcelona's beach and port." Full review
