My room on 20th floor facing the Med Sea was totally quiet. It was spotlessly clean, very compact and had most everything you need The hotel service was good but seemed a bit understaffed. No concierge was the main drawback. More

We spent 5 days here while my wife was attending a conference. We were very surprised that this business hotel’s rooms did not have a coffee maker, or a room safe, and not even a clock. I called the desk about the clock and was told that they have none. The room was often too warm for our tastes. Even... More

I stayed at the AC Forum beginning of November for a conference. Ther hotel was very convenient because it was just around the corner to the convention center. Other than that I was disappointed. There is no W-LAN in the rooms. There should have been one in the lobby, but if you could connect, it was so sloooow. Breakfast was... More

The hotel stated it was close to the RR station 650 ft., which it is, but you cannot exit the RR station building near the hotel. So you have to exit one place and walk a few blocks down the street to the hotel. The lobby was nice and the attendants at the front desk were very helpful. The shower... More

This hotel is fine based on location to the conference centre but not a great place to stay if you are planning to visit Barcelona as a tourist. Hotel was not cheap at €200 per night and to be honest, the hotel is best described as a functional hotel catering for conference visitors. The hotel has no real soul and... More

My room was clean and comfortable - by no means spacious or luxurious. It's all about location for me - steps from the conference center, this was fantastic. We held business meetings in upstairs rooms which were very comfortable and the views were gorgeous. Everyone was happy when they walked in the room. Definitely need to travel out for dinners...

Had to be in the conference centre for a couple of days. Usually I take the Hilton overthere but is was full. The room was slightly smaller than the (upgraded) one in the Hilton I usually have. However, the swimming pool was still open. The water (at 15°C) was just what you need after using one of the two sauna... More

If you're at the Forum building for a conference - this hotel has a great location. That said, If you're wanting to use this as a base to visit Barcelona - be prepared for @20 min ride on the metro/tram or a taxi ride - you are a way out of town. Still, its only about 5 mins walk from... More

I selected this hotel because it has very easy a access to the primary train station in Barcelona, which was convenient because I had business the next days outside the city. The hotel is very new with plenty of the ammenties that I'm accustomed to finding in American hotels (tub/shower, shampoo, toiletries) and a softer, more comfortable bed than I... More

I blame the architect's selection of dark, serious colours for a hotel that is just facing the sea. I blame the fact that windows were quite short, limiting the view enjoyment. THe hotel staff was very helpful, also for room service. I had particular needs and in all cases I was fully satisfied. The room dining proved positive as well.... More
