Top Hotels Near Marfil Alella in Barcelona from AU$106

"Beautiful hotel, but definitely not a 5-star experience. While the hotel itself is gorgeous, the service is a massive letdown. The breakfast is highly stressful due to a lack of space, broken coffee machines, and illogical food layouts. Room amenities were consistently lacking (like missing spoons every morning for coffee/tea). Also all the floor tiles was loose on the balcony barley stuck down and no grout in them...this was same also for kyara bar all tiles on the outside was just wobbly and loose...not great....For my birthday, we ordered a small cake that cost €55 but turned out to be nothing more than a hollow chocolate filled with whipped cream...not a cake!! delivered with a single small plate for the two of us., the staff's attitude was poor. After our drinks were knocked over by a heavy gust of wind while we were in the pool, as we was getting out the one of the staff was half way through cleaning it up...just walked off and like it didn't happen. When we asked the bar for a replacement, they were very hesitant we had only one sip before getting into the pool.., and the cleaner actually lied and denied seeing the accident. The location has limited variety (shisha bars), and the 5-star rating is extremely confusing. It functions more like a 3-star service in a pretty building. We enjoyed our holiday and would go back, just not with the high expectations we originally had this time..."

"Everything was perfect!"

"The room was clean, the staff was very friendly the breakfast is not worth the cost, the eggs were cold, only had scrambled eggs and also the back was cold, No natural juices and the food runs out and you have to ask the staff to supply it. They can do better with the breakfast."

"The hotel was in a great location, nice and clean."

"Super, very clean the rooms, the staff are amazing, nice place"

"24/7 front desk makes for such a great convenience. The restaurant is convenient and there are good selections. Very easy to get a taxi or Uber and the front desk will call for you if you like. Last year stayed in the Family room this year we had two separate smaller rooms which were lovely. The smaller rooms only had a shower so if you love to have a bath then confirm that. Coffee maker in the room for coffee and tea which the hotel provides. Small fridge also with snacks for purchase if you like. I loved Badalona and probably will always stay right on the beach any time I go to Barcelona. Three things did challenge me and were: 1) heat cannot be set. I am always cold and there was no way to increase the heat in the room 2) no washcloths but they do offer a body sponge which I used and 3) the bartender on the rooftop pool charged me $15 for a virgin pina colada which was the same price as the one with liquor. I paid cash so I am sure there is no record of that purchase. I did notify the hotel about my unhappiness about being charged full price for a virgin pina as if it was with liquor. Honestly that has never happened to me before and I was shocked. Those are very small items. I love the hotel and staff and there is much nearby like restaurants, beach, and market. The rooftop pool is beautiful especially at sunset."

"Overall, the stay was okay. The connectivity and accessibility were good, but the property is quite far from the prime locations and main attractions. The hotel itself feels old, although the bed was comfortable. The carpets in the corridors had visible stains, which affected the overall impression of cleanliness. Housekeeping was inconsistent during my stay — on the first day, toilet paper was not replenished, and on the next day, towels were missing. Additionally, no water bottles were replaced during housekeeping, which is something even a decent property usually provides as a basic service. While the stay was manageable and comfortable in parts, the hotel could definitely improve its maintenance and housekeeping standards."

"Breakfast: More options for vegetarians is desirable."

"Breakfast was cold.good staff."
