Rough Guide Star
"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."

The Telegraph9.0
"Sunny, friendly and supremely comfortable, The Serras is one of a new breed of stylish and unstuffy five-stars changing the face of the Barcelona hotel scene." Full review
Departures "The interiors feel more like a New York loft than a turn of the century mansion, incorporating industrial elements like iron lights and bookcases, hardwood floors and geometric-patterned tile work." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "Smiley staff rush to hold open the double-height door that leads to a light-filled entrance lobby with wooden floors, mirrored walls and bright pops of colour." Full review
