Reviews
Our room was clean and bed was very comfortable.
Thank you
Everyone we encountered was professional, friendly, and eager to help with anything we needed, whether it was local recommendations, arranging reservations, or just a warm greeting every time we walked through the lobby. It really felt like they went above and beyond to make our visit special.
The hotel itself is stylish and comfortable, but it’s the amazing staff that makes The Barcelona EDITION stand out. We left with great memories and will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Barcelona. Highly recommended.
I also enjoyed the daily breakfast and talking with the barista Maria. She took the time to sit with me and educated me on the different regions of Spain and provided some great suggestions while touring the city of Barcelona.
If you stay here you definitely have to experience the rooftop bar.
Thiago and Mike were so friendly and accommodating during my nightly visits to the bar.
I will definitely stay at this hotel if I visit Barcelona again!!!
The breakfast food was beyond incredible. Every breakfast we had was fresh, beautifully prepared, and delicious (easily some of the best we’ve had while traveling).
But what truly set our experience apart was the staff. Every single team member we encountered was warm, helpful, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.
One particular moment stood out: when our return flight home was unexpectedly cancelled and we couldn't find an English-speaking airline representative to assist us, one of the hotel staff members (Sophia) stayed beyond the end of her shift just to help us translate and navigate the process of finding another way home. We were blown away by her kindness and generosity.
Despite the hotel being fully booked, they also managed to find a way to accommodate us for an extra night while we sorted things out. We are so incredibly thankful to the entire team at The Barcelona Edition for their exceptional hospitality and for truly going above and beyond during a stressful situation.
We can't recommend it highly enough and look forward to returning one day!
