ABaC Barcelona

This should not be a 5 star hotel! Great restaurant & nice looking property, but 80% of the attention is given to the restaurant and not the hotel. EXAMPLES: 1- They offer room service (as expected at any 5 star hotel) but frequently tell you the kitchen staff is too busy with the restaurant to be able to provide room service. So there really is no reliable room service. 2- One arrives at the hotel and there is no one to help you with your luggage! 3- Front desk staff and reception staff members are clueless regarding what great service means.

Generally a very nice hotel. Especially the bathtub area was great. It is in a residential area, very safe. It is a small hotel, only 15 rooms, The entire staff was very friendly. The main general criticism was that it seemed to be a restaurant first, hotel 2nd. Also, the only dinner restaurant was a prix-fix menu, more than $300 per person. Would expect more choices. The specific criticism: I asked front desk if there was English speaking news channel on TV. Now, we generally go to bed early. The gentleman at the front desk offered to come to our room to set it up. It was about 9:30 pm and my wife was in bed already. After 15 to 20 minutes, he couldn't figure out how to get any channel, English or Spanish, on the tv. He said he was sending someone else up, and about 15 minutes later, a woman came up. After about 10 minutes, she called someone else who came up about 10 minutes later, and got the TV channels on after about 15 minutes. They immediately left, with a Spanish speaking station on. We scrolled through about 70 to 80 channels, and while there were two or three channels playing movies in English, we found no news stations.

This hotel is quite amazing. We were only able to spend one night here but it was a fantastic experience. It is an ultra modern hotel with superb fixtures and fittings. It was all so very comfortable. The suite was huge and a further huge outdoor terrace. It is in a lovely area of Barcelona . The excellent breakfast was served on a delightful terrace. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. A thoroughly first class, 5 star experience.

Beautiful hotel with great staff. The experience is amazing already from the moment you walk in the lobby. the staff is friendly and professional. The lobby is beautiful. The room is just amazing. I love the breakfast and i love the restaurant abac

Thanks to a family event and also the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Barcelona , we decided to stay at ABaC with my wife and our two sons . Located in a very quiet and charming area of Barcelona, this “Boutique hotel “is very elegant. And let’s start by mentioning how much the staff is extremely kind, professional,efficient with a lot of empathy for guests. From the moment you arrive at the hotel,you feel privileged and cared.. We selected Deluxe rooms, very wide, well-equipped, with a modern design.All details are really very well anticipated.… The Spa is very elegant ,and we experienced very good relaxing massages. We previously booked the dinner at the 3 Stars Michelin restaurant of the hotel. A fantastic epicurean experience,with surprising mixed flavors, a deep attention to cooking,and the use of unique local ingredients. So everything was fabulous and far beyond our most optimistic expectations ! It took me time to find out some points to improve and really thinking about it I would just mention that the restaurant should adopt a dress code policy for guests. Even if the key point is what you discover in your plates ,which in this case was really unbelievable, having dinner with some ( only some ) other tables where people come in blue jeans,sneakers, « Hawaiian » short sleeves style shirts is not what I expect in a 3 stars hotels. Usually at this level, Business casual, or jackets are required…I’m not stating that suits and ties should be mandatory , but there should be a minimum ,specified in advance to guests…If there is not a minimum of respect for the other guests and employees, what can we expect in the future? People coming to dinner in Bermuda’s? Once again, it took me a lot of efforts to highlight a point of improvement but I believe that this should be considered by the restaurant owners … If you have the chance to visit this fantastic city of Barcelona, DO NOT miss the opportunity to stay at ABaC, enjoy the dinner and …relax.. We will do our best to be back again and again…. P.S: quite sad to have seen Charles Leclerc stopped while leading a fantastic race on the Ferrari ,because of an unexpected engine failure….But He will be back stronger ! 💪
