Very nice stay. Great location and top notch breakfasts. Our first room was too small for comfortable five day stay but they worked hard juggling rooms to find us nicer, larger room for reasonable upcharge of 150 euros. Very enjoyable stay!

Big Birthday trip

By: ChildsPlay


Reviewed on: 21 Nov 2019

We had booked the MO Barcelona through Ourisman to get the Fan Club amenities, and we could not have been happier. We had booked the least expensive room category available, and when we arrived (though not upgraded due to a big conference in town), we asked for a nice room with a bathtub, and they essentially gave us the best base room in the hotel. It was better than most suites I have booked...truly fantastic. As the room wasn't immediately ready, and it was Sunday, they let us stay in the restaurant and gave us complimentary brunch (well over 100 Euro value) while we waited. At all times the hotel staff were accommodating and truly friendly...we are going to return for sure

So this hotel is extremely expensive. Our 3 night stay was over $16K and I do not think it was worth that price! But - it is located very centrally in a really nice area near all the shopping and restaurants. The food was okay. The outdoor rooftop pool and bar / restaurant was the best part. The best views of Barcelona! The staff and service were wonderful. Could not be beat! We did not love the food that much, but that is probably because we don’t love Spanish food. Everyone spoke English. They did have a cool indoor pool that my kids liked. This is a bit of a dated hotel, but we did enjoy it. I think it’s more of a 4 star than a 5 star, but we still had a great time. We would stay there again but maybe in a less expensive room. (Note: we did have 2 connecting rooms and they were HUGE, which is probably why it was so expensive. It did have a great dining area, living area and an outdoor bath tub which the kids loved!).
