Review by hotel critic
As a single, professional travel blogger, I recently chose Sofitel Barcelona for a corporate retreat. The hotel's prime location, just two minutes from the beach, made it an excellent choice for mixing business with leisure. The spacious standard room was well-appointed, with all essentials thoughtfully provided. The comfortable bed, along with extra pillows, ensured a good night's rest after a busy day.For remote work, the hotel's quiet and well-equipped business center was a boon. The connectivity lounge with computers, printer, and cozy sofa allowed for focused work sessions. The 24-hour reception and security provided a sense of safety and convenience, important for a business traveler like me.Another highlight was the hotel's amenities, like the outdoor swimming pool and fitness center, perfect for unwinding after work hours. The on-site restaurant offered fresh and local dining options, ideal for business lunches.Sofitel Barcelona provided a seamless blend of work and relaxation, making it a great choice for business travelers seeking comfort and convenience. I look forward to returning for future corporate stays.
