About

METT Barcelona is a five-star lifestyle hotel perched above the city, where the Mediterranean meets the mountains. Set in a landmark building with more than a century of history, it blends heritage and modern sophistication to create a sanctuary of laid-back luxury on Tibidabo Hill. Inside, 70 elegant rooms and suites are designed for effortless comfort. Soft Quivera linens, BOTANYC amenities, and indulgent bathrooms with both bathtub and shower invite guests to slow down and feel at home. Some rooms open onto private balconies, the perfect place to soak in skyline views that stretch from the city to the sea. From our panoramic terraces and gardens to the heated pools that overlook the Barcelona skyline and the Mediterranean, every vantage point is designed for awe. Wellness finds its expression at Valmont Spa. Guests drift between the stainless-steel pool, hot tub, and sauna, or recharge with a signature treatment. From a sunlit lounger to a mindful swim, every moment is shaped to balance relaxation and refinement. The hotel’s culinary spirit celebrates the flavors of Catalonia, Spain, and the Mediterranean. The signature restaurant sets the stage for vibrant dining, while two distinctive bars capture every mood, from poolside aperitifs to cocktails at sunset with Barcelona glittering below. Although it feels like a retreat above the city, the heartbeat of Barcelona is always within reach. A complimentary shuttle runs daily to Passeig de Gràcia, offering seamless access to the iconic boulevard before returning you to your hillside haven. For a weekend escape or a longer stay, METT Barcelona is more than a hotel. It is where heritage, lifestyle, and the spirit of the city come together.

    Pros +

    • It is on top of a hill with a very scenic location. However if you are looking for Barcelona down town experience this not for you. It is far from the town and is isolated. The facilities are great. I loved it as I was looking to get away from the madness
    • Staff was wonderful - SO helpful! View spectacular! Food very yummy. Bed was heavenly. Shower exceptional!
    • Breath taking Views and amenities

    Cons -

    • Not near the city center although that is some of the attraction. It was also good timing for us as the city was shut down with protestors.
    • Very expensive to get into town, the shuttle was never available.
    • It was hard to get a taxi after 8pm

    This is an absolutely beautiful hotel, the breakfast was amazing as well as the view. I also had a chance to visit the spa, and well... I was also very pleased with my experience there.

    Location - view of city

    Somewhat disorganized at check-in

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-2-2023

    It was so elegant and luxurious and they made us made us feel pampered during our entire stay.

    I enjoyed the general interior design of the hotel, and the staff was fairly kind. I had asked them to prepare the room for somebody’s birthday(we were 3 people) and they gifted us with a underwhelmingly small cake and a bottle of champagne with 2 mini balloons attached to it. I asked to have the room decorated. unfortunately the cake was so small that the person didn’t even notice it on first glance when we arrived in the room. Was disappointed because I even proposed to pay for the room to be decorated and they said that they would do it for free. I didn’t know that that would mean that the surprise would then be minuscule and barely noticeable. Apple and peach crumble that I ordered was also very good, although almost criminally overpriced for its size.

    While I always try to make fair reviews, I have to say that this was the worst hotel that I have stayed whilst in Barcelona. From the minute we got to our relatively small suite, we were greeted with a multitude of bugs that were right at the windows. We had read some reviews before that this place had problems with bugs due to it’s location, but I didn’t expect to have to kill over 10 bugs in the span of just two nights. I am used to staying at other five-star hotels and at such a price tag, usually snacks in the mini bar are free, as well as the water that is purposefully placed right on the bedside table. The pan con tomate that I ordered was terrible and not seasoned at all. You could also tell that the bread was stale and had been in the freezer prior to.

    Perfect view, big room, service was good

    Most part of spa facilities was out of service. I think it's because of closing for renovation, but it was unexpected

    5SauliusPosted on: 1-7-2025

    Passable

    The bathroom did not have all the necessary amenities, the room was cold, we had to change it. The breakfast had a very limited choice. It takes a very long time to call a taxi, inconvenient transportation

    9ThanhPosted on: 12-29-2024

    Superb

    The water from badroom is rot sometimes, I told with staff but not help much

    7SarahPosted on: 12-23-2024

    Pretty view of Barcelona. Dinner was good, I recommend the cheesecake. The room was big and shower was huge.

    There was a twenty minute wait to check-in and the room was not ready even though it was after 3pm. In the bathroom, the bath water was orange so could not be used. The spa had lots of broken equipment. The jacuzzi did not work, the women's sauna was at too high a fixed temperature, the steam room was too cold. The men's sauna was broken. The gym had no water cups and the fruit was mouldy. Overall the hotel is a little tired and needs refurbishment.

    7CristinaPosted on: 12-23-2024

    The views are the best of what the hotel has to offer. The terrace in our room was amazing.

    The property is quite dated and the whole hotel needs a touch up: walls need painting, furniture was quite old and used… The hotel is a “Leading Hotel of the World” but seen the conditions of the hotel, it doesn’t look like. the restaurant is quite expensive as well. A water bottle was 9€ which is insane.

    8JeyranPosted on: 12-16-2024

    Every member of staff was attentive, friendly and helpful with the best view over Barcelona

    Quality of breakfast buffet quite poor. Outdated decor and poor maintenance of plumbing world with no water warm water in spa showers and very poor water pressure in room shower

    6MariahPosted on: 12-10-2024

    It has nice views and nice location also can’t say the staff weren’t nice

    However we find that There was cockroaches in our room and because of that we couldn’t sleep so night was ruined for my birthday even though they changed our room .

    9AbzikPosted on: 11-14-2024

    This hotel has the best views of the city. We loved the swimming pool and jacuzzi.

    Food was subpar.

    10JessicaPosted on: 11-8-2024

    The staff (every person encountered) was welcoming, kind and considerate (without sycophancy or arrogance). Views are amazing. Very enjoyable visit to nearby Tibidabo.Extremely relaxed and comfortable

    Nothing (we booked last minute so it was expensive)Location above the city is gorgeous but maybe not suitable for travellers seeking city centre location.Bathroom bin hadn’t been emptied

    10TerriPosted on: 11-2-2024

    Everything, the size of the rooms, the views are unbeatable. The staff are amazing and the facilities are great. This is our second visit and it didn't disappoint. Good food and great choice at breakfast. This is not a cheap stay but for special occasions it is fantastic.

    It is not a negative but because of the location it takes a while to get to the centre of Barcelona. The bus, then funicular then train which ends at Placa de Catalonia. It only costs about 6 euros. We used taxis a fair amount which cost around 30 euros.
