A bit far from city but on the other hand close to the beach. One of the best breakfasts that I have had in a hotell, with more or less everything from a western viewpoint.

I have just got back from Barcelona and have had a great time, and this hotel has helped that experience. I was in charge of a group of 14 staying for 3 nights. We arrived at the hotel early, but the helpful receptionist gave us 2 rooms to put our bags in while we had to wait an hour for... More

We strongly recommend this hotel. Receptionists were very helpful and rooms and bathrooms light and clean. Even the staircase was nice (as I dont like lifts, and quite often the stairs are worn out and dirty). Hop on and off bus just around the corner - and only 7-8 minutes to the metro. Busses to Catalunya just in the street.... More

Coming back 14 months later was a much better experience. We stayed 3 nights on the courtsey of the managing director as a compensation for a bad experience. This time everything was fine, in some cases even more than fine. We can strongly recommend this hotel.

A really decent hotel, with good facilities. Makes a great base to explore Barcelona, but I agree with some of the other reviews in that it seems to be missing the "wow" factor.  Good transport links, got the Aerobus into the centre, only e10 for a return. Hotel is a good half hour walk from placa de catalunya, which was... More

Long overdue review! :) Stayed here May 2011 with another friend and our two children. The hotel itself is clean and up to date, and the staff are friendly helpful and efficient. A very good selection at breakfast and plenty of table space (some hotels have the tables nearly back to back!) The pool was lovely too and we had... More

Overall this place is a good value, the receptionists are pleasant and efficient. I'd particularly recommend staying here in summer due to its great proximity to the beach and Porto Olimpico nightlife. However, the walls are quite thin and banging doors in the morning make sleeping in difficult. Some maintenance is also needed in the rooms. We had an electrical... More

Stayed at the icaria in February 2012 as a little break after our wedding. Got a taxi from the airport direct to the hotel for 35 euros. On arriving at the hotel we were quite impressed & the reception staff were very helpful. Our room was standard in terms of size & luxury but served us well. The hotel is... More

Just spent 2 nights at the Hotel Icaria and cannot express enough what a top class hotel this is. From the moment of my arrival, I felt that the entire staff went above and beyond to ensure that I enjoyed my stay. The hotel is spotlessly clean, and has everything you could ask for. The rooms are more than adequate,... More
