AC Miramar address: Plaza Carlos Ibañez, 3, Barcelona, 08038

AC Miramar details: Exclusive 5-star hotel in an excellent location, next to Montjüic and Costa i Llobera gardens, and offers spectacular views of both the Mediterranean Sea and city.

The hotel is located in a historical building built in Montjüic for the 1929 World Fair. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful gardens home to typical Mediterranean varieties of trees, designed by Forestier.

The original building has been carefully restored, maintaining much of its original features and charm, in order to turn it into this unique, exquisite and beautiful hotel together with the luxury and exclusiveness of the AC Selection.

The restoration was done by the well-known architect Oscar Tusquets Blanca.

There are multiple conference rooms, including one with a 250-person capacity with natural lighting, which looks over the hotel’s gardens.

I have just returned from the AC Miramar where we stayed for 3 nights. The hotel was by far the best hotel I have ever stayed in. From the minute we checked in to the minute we checked out the staff were very friendly and helpful but not over the top. We had a AC Executive room and it was spotless. The massive bath and the walk in shower were amazing. The room service was quick and the food was very good. The soft drinks and beer from the mini bar are all included in the rate which was a nice touch. We walked down to La Ramblas on our first day and it took us about 10 - 15 minutes and we were only strolling. We didn't notice any homeless people (there are loads on La Ramblas) on our way down. If that is too far to walk, a cab ride is only a couple of minutes and costs about 4 Euros - the hotel will call you one and it arrives almost straight away. There are also loads of taxi ranks dotted around. The indoor pool and spa facilities are excellent - the outdoor pool looked lovely but the weather wasn't quite warm enough for swimming outside. On our last day we checked out but left our bags at the hotel as we had a later flight. Everything was as we left it. We didn't leave any cash in our bags but I wouldn't have left cash in a bag in any hotel in the world where I wasn't there to look after it. All in all, I would thoroughly recommend this hotel - it was brilliant!

We booked this hotel for a quiet romantic break, but they were still finishing the hotel when we got there. It turns out they were getting ready for their grand opening, and some facilities (like the spa area and pool!) werent ready. It was noisy every day, and the staff were more concerned with the opening event than the guests. Shame the hotel didnt see fit to warn us before we got there. Then they promised a refund, but 4 months on and we're still waiting. It's a real shame, since the hotel was OK, but I wouldn't ever use the Small 'Luxury' Hotels group again - when you spend a lot of money on a hotel, you have to know you can trust the operator.
