Expert reviews
“About 100 years old, the Majestic peers with a certain gravitas down Paseo de Gracia, Barcelona’s major shopping avenue. From the rooftop terrace bar you can see how the city grew outward from its neatly gridded center.”
“With an unbeatable location on Barcelona’s most stylish boulevard, steps from Gaudí’s La Pedrera and a stone’s throw from the boulevard’s swankiest shops, this hotel is a near-perfect place to stay.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Barcelona.
“Located in the heart of Barcelona’s most luxurious shopping district, Passeig de Gràcia, Majestic Hotel & Spa boasts one the most desirable locations in the city. The impressive neoclassical façade together with the great service is the landmark of the hotel, which opened in 1918 and is still run by the same original family.”
“The Majestic has long been a place in which locals take pride (and will come to dine or drink). It’s grand in the old sense, but kitted out with every modern facility. It has worked hard of late to shake off fusty image it has had for decades, with a brighter dining experience and DJs mixing on the rooftop sun deck.”

Fabulous
The people were so helpful and very nice - location was amazing -
The price this time was very high - more than I paid previously - I think there was a conference there and they only had a few rooms left

Great location
Location staff and facilities were all great
The rooms aren’t what you’d expect from a 5 star hotel. The carpets were a bit grubby and decor/furnishings felt outdated. Room was disappointing

Wonderfully luxurious!
The location is perfect. The swimming pool and spa below are marvelous. The staff are always cordial and efficient, with special attention to details such as a welcome bottle of Prosecco and a lovely Valentine’s cake…. The bar is cozy with the possibility of a light dinner with drinks. The pianist in the evening was very talented, thus very enjoyable!
The Prosecco could have been of a better brand…

Iconic hotel in the heart of the city
Location is wonderful. Close to many museums and landmarks. Hotel is clean and staff were accommodating, pleasant and friendly. We had a gorgeous and very comfortable room with a balcony of the city. We would definitely stay there again!

Service that truly defines the Majestic
From the moment of arrival the atmosphere of the hotel is set by the team. The service is attentive, kind and genuinely personal. Professional without distance, close without ever being overly familiar. It is the kind of hospitality that feels natural and sincere. The Majestic has the character of a classic grand hotel and it is clear that the property is being progressively updated while preserving its identity. What really makes the place memorable, however, is the people. Because this is not a large chain with scripted interactions or strange incentive systems. What you find here is something much rarer today: a culture where attentiveness, kindness and genuine care are simply expected and practiced every day. And you can feel that it is real. The reception in particular deserves special recognition. The welcome was exceptional. It was attentive, thoughtful and genuinely warm. Honestly the best reception experience I have had in a luxury hotel in more than a decade, and I have stayed in quite a few. The spa is excellent and clearly part of the newer areas of the hotel, beautifully designed and very relaxing. The rooftop terrace is easily one of the best places in Barcelona to enjoy a drink, with excellent cocktails, beautiful views of the city and a wonderful atmosphere. Breakfast is also outstanding and easily among the best in the city. The awards it has received are fully deserved. But in the end what truly makes the Majestic special is the team. That kind of authentic hospitality is something you rarely find today and it elevates the whole experience.
The rooms, corridors and lifts are beginning to show their age and could benefit from a refresh (They are great but for the level of the property they are already calling for it). That said, the property is already in an update process which is awesome.

Would stay again but the rooftop bar is overrated
Love the hotel, location , reception, rooms, bedding, housekeeping, etc.
The hotel itself was absolutely amazing but the roof bar service was extremely poor. We actually left because no one came to take our order.

What did you like about the property? Exceptional stay. The location is perfect, the staff are genuinely warm and professional, and everything feels elegant and well maintained. The room was very comfortable and spotless, and the overall atmosphere is calm and luxurious. Great facilities and a wonderful rooftop experience. What didn’t you like about the property?

Majestic Hotel made our time in Barcelona a magnificent experience.
Majestic Hotel & SPA offers The Best breakfast , with the variety of the most delicious pastries, hot and cold items with the freshest ingredients. Also, if I wish I could give 10 star rating for Majestic Hotel guests service. From the entrance, concierge, front desk, breakfast, restaurant…. all go above and beyond to help the their guests. We already miss the staff , the beautiful Majestic Hotel in the city center and walking to the great shopping district.
We LOVED everything about this hotel, and highly recommended it.

Many thanks to the entire G/R team, the booking team, and the driver, Miquel Ubeda Soler. They were very attentive throughout my stay. The roommaids also did a fantastic job. This was my second visit and I’m thinking of coming back again. The room, especially the jacuzzi on the terrace, was wonderful.

Location and staff friendliness
The Smart TV when we tried connecting via chromecast glitches and was so very slow that we ended up using our laptop to watch the shows we wanted. Pity as I thought this wifi issue was fixed from previous reviews. We were out most days so it was not a big problem but for a 5 star hotel, this should be something that could be fixed easily nowadays.

A wonderful stay with excellent service, a perfect location, and a very welcoming team.
Everything was excellent. The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and very supportive throughout our stay. The location was perfect — central, convenient, and close to everything, which made our trip very enjoyable.
Nothing — everything met and exceeded our expectations.

We had a very comfortable stay. The reception staff was very friendly and helpful.
The location was excellent … close to lots of different things. We didn’t try the breakfast or use the hotel services so can’t comment on that. Our stay was very comfortable and hotel staff was more than happy to help with anything we needed.
We were staying at the Residence apartments. It wdve been nice if the basic cleaning included the bathrooms as well. It only included making beds, changing towels and emptying bins.

Wonderful time at the heart of Barcelona
We had a minor issue with the room - the service team responded immediately to my simply survey answer and offered to change our room and extended additional care - very nice of them and amazing service
Be aware that you need to book your time in the pool in advance - which is great because you have an almost private pool and jacuzzi :)
