Hotels in Barcelonaa modern five-star hotel at the foot of Montjuïc
8.7/10
Generous rooms and a scenic rooftop make this a strong, slightly out-of-centre luxury pick.
InterContinental Barcelona is a modern five-star at the foot of Montjuïc, strongest on space, cleanliness and rooftop views. We'd choose it for a comfortable base away from the busiest tourist streets. Standard rooms measure a generous 42 square metres, while Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise comfortable beds, thorough housekeeping and welcoming staff. Breakfast also earns consistent approval.
The trade-off is location: Montjuïc's museums and Plaça d'Espanya are handy, but many central sights require transport. The rooftop pool is better for cooling off than serious swimming, and spa access costs extra. Recent Tripadvisor feedback also suggests complaint handling can fall short of five-star expectations, despite broadly strong service ratings. We'd skip it if stepping straight into the old town or having spa access included matters most.

Generous rooms and a scenic rooftop make this a strong, slightly out-of-centre luxury pick. a modern five-star hotel at the foot of Montjuïc, scored for what it is.
InterContinental Barcelona is a modern five-star at the foot of Montjuïc, strongest on space, cleanliness and rooftop views. We'd choose it for a comfortable base away from the busiest tourist streets. Standard rooms measure a generous 42 square metres, while Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise comfortable beds, thorough housekeeping and welcoming staff. Breakfast also earns consistent approval.
The trade-off is location: Montjuïc's museums and Plaça d'Espanya are handy, but many central sights require transport. The rooftop pool is better for cooling off than serious swimming, and spa access costs extra. Recent Tripadvisor feedback also suggests complaint handling can fall short of five-star expectations, despite broadly strong service ratings. We'd skip it if stepping straight into the old town or having spa access included matters most.
Best for: couples wanting spacious rooms; Montjuïc museum visitors; travelers preferring a quieter base
Watch out for: transport needed for many central sights; small rooftop pool; spa access charged separately
Location: Near Montjuïc museums and Plaça d'Espanya; less convenient for old-town sightseeing on foot.
Rooms: Standard rooms are 42 square metres, with strong guest feedback on comfort and beds.
Cleanliness: A clear strength across recent Tripadvisor and Expedia reviews.
Service: Usually warm and helpful; some recent guests describe weak follow-through when problems arise.
Amenities: Rooftop pool and terrace, gym, restaurants and spa; IHG lists a mid-February–March pool closure.
Fees and surprises: Spa access and parking cost extra; check whether breakfast is included in your booking.
