Barcelona: Hotel with decent pool

9 replies

Can anyone recommend a hotel with a decent pool in Barcelona? I’m a keen swimmer and want to get my lengths in when on there in the summer, I’ve seen a few that seem to just have tiny pools.
Ideally close to sights etc also..

What about the arts hotel

It's expensive but the pool seems a decent length. It says it's 37m. www.hotelfloridabarcelona.com/en/hotel/luxury-hotel-services

Thanks, looks amazing, but I’m travelling on my own for a couple of days and want to stay central.

What do you consider central ? And what did you think to the arts hotel

Hotel Florida is lovely - they have a regular shuttle bus into the city. Lovely to relax in the evening away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Fabulous views and just a short stroll along to Tibidabo. We got a Groupon deal I think - worth a look.

We stayed in Olivia hotel a few years ago. Very central and had a roof top pool - not huge but great for cooling off.

Was it Olivia Balmes Hotel you stayed at greeneggblueegg? Looks lovely. Will check out Hotel Florida too.

Arts Hotel looks lovely but it’s a bit remote- you seem to need to take a bus and cable car to get to central Barcelona by public transport. I’m only there 3 days, two nights, doing a course in the centre of the city both mornings, so looking for somewhere handy to get back to and relax for a few hours, before heading out exploring in the late afternoon.

Yes that's the one. Beautifully modern with a touch of luxury.

Pool is fab but you might struggle to do any swimming distance!
