AC Hotel Som by Marriott

Ultra modern décor in rooms and lounge area. Very quiet and very pleasant staff. On nice boulevard in business district. 10 min cab ride to City Center (about 12-15 Euros) and 15 min cab ride to airport (about 15-20 Euros). In house restaurant wasn't open except for breakfast which is a separate charge if you wanted it included in price of room. A few restaurants within 5 min. walk. Only problem was that cabbies had a hard time finding it, probably due to recent name change to Marriot, however sign on hotel says AC Hotel Som.

Small, slow service, not enough staff, but pleasant, courteous and clean.

Very nice hotel, new and modern. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Location is far away from the city center but there is a metro stop close by that is within walking distance. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone!

Friendly staff, good food , clean room.

Stayed in a double room which was comfortable with an excellent bathroom. Room was always cleaned immaculately. Shame that they do not allow you to borrow an iron for crumpled shirts though.. Can't comment on the breakfast as I always ate out. Staff were always very helpful especially the incredibly helpful and beautiful dark haired receptionist who also gave various useful advice and information. Location of hotel was a little away from the main centre but located just a 5 minute walk to the nearest metro stop, which then takes a further 10 minutes to the main centre. Close to the hotel is the excellent Gran Via 2 shopping mall which has a variety of good restaurants too. Cheapest way of getting to hotel from airport is to catch the No.46 bus which stops just to the front of Gran Via 2 and costs 2 euros, then walk the few minutes behind the mall to the hotel. Overall, I would stay there again.

Clean attractive hotel, breakfast ok. In suburbs, about 20 minute train ride into center of Barcelona. Close to train and buses.

walking distance to bus and metro service, close to cruise port and airport, staff very helpful. There was some street noise, we were on 2nd floor. Windows open for breeze, fresh air. Telephone did not work. This may be the darkest room I have ever had.

The high point of our pre-cruise, 3 night stay in Barcelona was getting my pocket picked on the Metro on the second day. The manager said that they would provide any help we needed. He and his staff were great. I made 5 overseas calls to cancel credit cards etc. and he wouldn't accept payment. We were in a foreign country with $40 in cash and no credit card. The hotel staff was the main reason we were able to turn a bad situation around and enjoy the rest of our trip. We couldn't have chosen a better place,

Gran Via shopping center across the street most beautiful mall I have ever seen. Easy subway to city center. Go see the maritime museum. watch out for pick pockets. We are from Seattle, so nice to see Starbucks near the cathedral. 2 hour wait to buy tickets into famiglia church. you are a great hotel. very fast wifi in lobby.
