W barcelona; le Meridian barcelona; edition barcelona. 4points barcelona was a little far out from city center but we liked the neighborhood! Solid hotel!

We stayed at both the W and Meridien when there a few years back - the Meridian location is perfect for hitting all the main sights, hotel itself is fine but nothing spectacular (may have been updated in the interim). As others have said - the W is much more of an over the top resort- the kind of property you don’t feel like leaving when you’re there. It’s a five/ten minute cab to the center so not that far out. We used the meridien days to do all our sight seeing and used the W days as a guilt free vacation from the vacation where we didn’t feel guilty sleeping in late and lounging at the pool / beach all day.

W Barcelona is incredible

Is it worth it for a first timer? I’ve heard it’s got lovely views but farther from the main areas of the city
