Map & location
Barcelona, Spain
Melia Barcelona Sarria is tucked into the upscale Les Corts district, a short stroll from Avenida Diagonal’s shops and offices. It’s a polished, local-feel neighbourhood rather than a tourist hotspot, yet you’re well placed for the city’s icons: Camp Nou, Passeig de Gràcia, Plaça de Catalunya and Las Ramblas are all a few kilometres away and easily reached by bus, metro or taxi. For sea air and sunsets, Barceloneta Beach and the revamped waterfront are about 5km away.
- Approx. transfer time from airport 20–30 minutes by car from Barcelona El Prat (BCN), depending on traffic.
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Melia Barcelona Sarria is a true city hotel and does not have an outdoor pool. Instead, the focus is on spa‑style relaxation at Serena Spa and making the most of Barcelona’s urban coastline.
Barceloneta and nearby beaches are around 5km away and easily reached by taxi or public transport if you fancy a dip in the Mediterranean or a sunset walk along the promenade.
Spa, sports & wellness
Wellness is a highlight here. Serena Spa offers a cocooning thermal area with sauna, steam room and whirlpool, alongside a full menu of massages and beauty rituals (charges apply; typically open 11:00–20:00, hours may vary with occupancy; minimum age 18).
The compact, air‑conditioned gym comes with cardio machines and strength‑training kit and is generally open to guests aged 16+. It’s ideal for a quick workout before breakfast or a stretch session after a day on your feet.
Elsewhere, you’ll find an elegant lobby lounge and bar, 24‑hour reception, concierge and business‑friendly services, making the hotel as practical as it is polished for both city breaks and work trips.

Prezzemolo Restaurant is the à la carte showpiece, serving refined Italian, Spanish and international dishes for lunch, dinner and snacks in a stylish, design‑led space. In the mornings, the Splendid International Buffet lays on a generous spread of hot and cold favourites, from fresh fruit and pastries to Catalan cured meats and cooked-to-order options – ideal whether you’re here on business or gearing up for a full day’s sightseeing.
The Level Lounge, reserved exclusively for guests booked into The Level categories, offers a quieter, club‑style setting for drinks and light bites across the day, plus a more private breakfast service.
