For 2 grand you should have an impeccable room and free breakfast. Love your reviews Tim! Thanks
Yes no excuses
It was $2,000 a night?
Sunbeds are for fake tanning as opposed to sun loungers.
Hot tubs are disgustingly lower middle--class. And filthy unless they're scrupulously cleaned after every use.

A dirty room for the price of a really nice 7 day holiday elsewhere, and no breakfast included as well….pass. Thanks as ever Tim for taking us with you
Not for a suite that size and that view. 2k for a week will get you a pretty crappy hotel room in any sort of resort destination. That is bargain basement economy accomodations.
@@Tugela60resorts are for degenerates who don't know how to travel
Tim, perhaps you can do one night in a standard room and then another night in a fancy expensive room so us average holiday makers can see what we would be getting if we stayed at these places.
Yes it would be really nice to see the difference between the cheapest vs the most expensive room in the same hotel. Is it really worth the extra money?
Good idea
@@GemR38 Expensive rooms are never really "worth" the extra money. All you are really paying for is more space, an upgraded bathroom and maybe a view/balcony. At any "luxury" hotel you are paying for the experience. A hack that me and my girlfriend use is to book a standard room for a night and then go to the front desk the next morning and tell them you are celebrating a special occasion and would like to know what the price would be to upgrade your room for an additional night, usually if there are vacancies and you belong to that chains rewards club (ie Marriott Bonvoy) they will offer you a discounted rate, or an upgrade for the price of standard room.
@@GemR38 I like this idea!
That room can be described in one word, GRUBBY !!
No. Grizzly
At £2K a night, 90's interior and everything in the room being extra...? That's a terrible value.
its becoming the norm now! :-(
And breakfast wasnt even originally included, this is a robbery
Bad value for sure. Air bnb sounds good
Yeah that’s not worth it at all
@@pomskylifenova7344 there are smaller hotels in Barcelona that offers waaaay better value for money than this W robbery
I've lived in Barcelona for 8 years and always wondered how that hotel looks inside - can't say I would recommend people to stay there after your video. Thank you for giving us an insight of the W, you earned my subscription.
The only reviewer who is honest. So many others fake positive! Well done Tim, great again 👍
Even if it was €200/night, the cleanliness wouldn’t cut it for a “W”.
For that kind of room, the head of housekeeping should have inspected before you checked in.
Love your channel. ❤
Tim is to hotels what Portnoy is to pizza places
Lighting wires hanging from ceiling!
Lighting is ugly!
Dirty
Crazy price!
My personal nightmare: expensive, dirty, no privacy, bathtub in the room. Why are hotels often so weird!
There is privacy. There's no buildings looking in.
@@davidjames579 not on balcony hot tub upper balconies look right on you
@@lizajane1878 You were talking about the bath. But with the hot tub as long as you're not naked, it's fine. It's like saying your neibour's can see into your garden. Why does it matter? Also being seen in water on holiday is pretty normal.
@@davidjames579 Some Barcelonans don't want tourists. They don't want them so bad that they're descending like mad mobs upon innocent families who're committing such offenses in their eyes as eating al fresco at restaurants even though they haven't got a clue that who they're assaulting could be the family from the next town over who came in for a bite to eat.
These people better take it up w/their government and not direct their misplaced anger at innocent people. They've lost their damn minds! Civility has been hijacked by the woke virus babies!
@@davidjames579 The whole point of privacy in hotels is so that you don't end up a show attraction. You might like everyone staring at you but that's your preference.
Omg!! That hallway would give me nightmares!! Redrum redrum!! Ya know “The Shining”!!!!
I got to say I love your practical view of things, generally speaking. No pomposity and idiocy coming from you. I appreciate that.
Tim, I love how you inspect everything. From seeing you review the worst Brittania hotels to all the posh ones thesedays, you still stay true to the important stuff. It is all about value, regardless.
Iconic property that I’m sure many of us have walked, biked, or driven past! Thanks for showing us around- love your walk throughs of the popular hotels like these!
That was fabulous. I adore your honesty with the “not so nice bits”, because then I honestly believe all of the wonderful bits you share with us. Thanks, Tim (and family)! I look forward to each and every video. Long time fan and now a proud member! ❤
Thanks for the long standing support Annie
I don’t travel as much as I’d like to, but after watching your videos and seeing all the dirt and grime in the hotels, I think I’ll stay home.
Seeing the room design, the price, how used is the furniture and the security (most likely for drunk people) on the balcony door, I am sure this room is thought for parties.
Omg i just couldn't cope with that carpet 😮😂 it's far too busy oh and dirty 😮. No not for me. Thank you for sharing though. 🎉
Hey! Greetings from Barcelona, actually you must know that these suites are mainly used or have been used for a long time just for partying so whenever anyone wants to enjoy a good suite for himself or with a partner they should not go to these rooms as crazy things happen while having 20+ people partying in a room.
OMG! The RED like literally EVERYWHERE in hallway feels like going through HELL. LOL😮
Lol 😂
Agree! A corridor to hell!😮
LOL that is what I thought...Hotel Hell!
It's getting Tim ready for the room.
I mean considering the state of his room he might as well been in hell
I truly appreciate your reviews, especially with your fabulous, witty wife and cutest of kids. Your channel allows me to choose where I’ll stay in the future. I was raised going to the best of all hotels in California, Europe and South America in the 70’s and 80’s with my parents. I can’t afford what they could and there is so much more to choose from now, so having you review hotels is entertaining and purposeful. Mostly, i live vicariously via your channel but im ready when i can afford the best. Muchas Gracias 😊
Watching your videos gives me a taste of the life I want to live one day, I genuinely don't think I would ever be able to see hotels like this or the one in Qatar and so many other types of hotels if it weren't for you and your videos. Keep up the great work. Thank you for liking my last two comments, and this is day 2 of commenting until we film a vlog together 💯
no worries , thanks for the support
@@WalkWithMeTim Of course, will continue to support you on every video. Hopefully soon, once I start posting more and my channel grows we can film a vlog together 🙌
Staying at home with a beautiful family is probably more fulfilling
a que te refieres?
Hi Tim, I’m sure you already know but Warwick Castle have a new hotel for you to try out. They also have woodland lodges which are lovely to stay in. It’ll be fun to see your experience in one of them if you get time 👍
The red hotel corridors, it's like walking inside an artery. Beautiful view but the cleaners need a bit of a talk to.
It's a large building, likely not enough cleaning staff so they cannot cope.
@@ThreeFiddyChannel Then they should lower their profit margin and hire more staff!
@@samjohns3227 How do you know they make any real profit for itself? They are owned by Marriot (American company) so its likely they send everything back to the USA and can only spend on what it needs to stay open.
Looks like a Destiny’s child music video (I think it was “say my name”) which is fitting considering the hotel looks like it is from the early 2000’s
so thankful for Tim taking me places probably i'd never be able to afford,it's so beautiful in Barcelona!
and pretty much all places u've been into
W Hotel not worth the money. Thanks for sharing ! Love your videos . It would be nice to see you in Croatia or Italy x
Tim, that view is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I love the night lights too! And the direct access to the beach is great too! ❤🎉😊
Hmmm, for what you paid I'd have expected the room to be absolutely spotless. A bit disappointing if I'm honest!
Not really a fan of open plan suites but that's just me!
Cheers for sharing Tim but I wouldn't bother!👍♥️
I always hit the "like" button before the video even starts.... that's high praise! 👏
The red all over the place gives it a Stanley Kubrick Shinning feels and thrills.
Thank you Tim. I so appreciate the time you spend recording these videos for us. Because of you, I see and virtually experience places I will never see in my lifetime. Thank you for this!
You are very welcome
Gosh what a carpet, ugh, I'm only just 5 ft so I'd be head banging on the hanging lights.
Hi Tim I would not want to stay in that room yuk . Hate baths in the room. The hotel is nice but needs updating and my god that red 😮. Barcelona looks nice id like to visit sometime. Great vlog thanks for sharing with us. Love to you as always Tracey 💕💕💕
Have a good trip. Enjoy your trip and stay Tim. Enjoy Barcelona.
Thanks! 😃
The Hotel looked great, very different,views absolutely amazing,location fab,balcony lovely, pools and beaches fabulous too,food yummy and reasonable.However..the price a night and the tired dirty state of it let it down big style. Thanku for sharing Tim as always,bringing us these Hotels and places thst most of us, I wont be visiting. Keep em coming😎🥂☀️⛱🌊
The floor boards by the hot tub will have hinges and the water supply is there. The hose will usually be under there too.
I couldn't stay in that room it's actually disgusting. I hope you got a huge discount.
Or you can just nicely ask reception to send the cleaners up to clean the room and then enjoy the rest of your holiday rather than stressing ...
The staff probably earns less than 1.400 euro a month. I doubt they care about rich tourists room cleaning 😂😂 go home tourists
@@dolaaaland what do you think will happen to the staff's job if the tourist stays at home?
@@yoz1111well said !
cleaners r overwrkd n underpaid
When I was in Barcelona - the subway/public transportation was a great way to get around. Thanks for a great review.
Thanks Tim, hope you enjoyed it,bit expensive i thought, looking forward to the next one, bye for now take care 😊xxxx
Thanks!
Thank you Polly
It turns my stomach when you describe the grubby furniture! Good on you for the honest reviews…
Looks amazing on outside but cruddy n inside! We always stay at an abnb and our hosts are divine💯❤💯
Tim that room is filthy. Nothing GREAT at all. Glad you found tea & coffee. Tks🎶
First of all, praise the algorithm for recommending me your lovely channel. I'd really like to see more reviews of "grounded" hotels and regular rooms. I just stayed in a 5-star all-inclusive B-grade hotel near Side, Turkiye, with all the pros and cons you can imagine (more like 3.5 stars), 5 nights for 500€. The entire minibar and bath items were complementary. And it was cleaner. 😅
I was on that very beach in May this year. Barcelona is a fabulous city. 💃Looking forward to seeing the video. ⛱️
It's such a big beach!
It is! Beautiful at night too, fabulous restaurants leading straight onto the beach. Amazing @@WalkWithMeTim
I really find your travel staycation vlogs very relaxing and entertaining! Hoping you could do more of these!
I love Barcelona. I stayed at the H10 Catalunya Plaza in 2022.
Wow what a beautiful city. Loved this…
Tim.
Honestly mate, i can not believe the immense quality of the videos you produce week after week...
Best hotel reviews on the planet without a doubt!
You must be getting offers from mainstream by now, every time i watch, & i have watched from the beginning of the channel so professional 👏
Nearly 500k subscribers & so well deserved..
All the very best, thanks for the wonderful entertainment, you've set the bar high for others to follow that's certain.
Can't fault ya, well done 👍
Thank you for your honesty!
I took my family to Barcelona it was good time went with Jet2 the hotel was in Countryside the hotel was nice not to tall ..We went all inclusive ,hotel was clean ,food good .grounds nice ,All stuff for kids and adults .We did trips to .😊
I love this part of Barcelona, we stayed at a hotel, just down from the W and it was more towards the marina. Remember, a super yacht with a helicopter on, it had just pulled in. It was quite spectacular to watch those guys bring that in. There’s also a little park down where we were that had a festival as an American. It was really interesting to watch all this. I have visited many places in Europe, but Barcelona is one of my favorites.
Hope your having a nice time
Hi tim,it looked and felt dirty as soon as u walked in,I’m sure the smell was 😲as u said.,I think I’d have slept out on the deck.not sure why it was Fort Knox locked up like that out to the deck,weird,weird,the whole place was..,those hanging lights made me want to pull them down,yikes I’ve totally 👎 down the place,but least very handy to the beach..Brillant tour though from you tim.👋👋thank u.
Tim I was in Barcelona 5 days ago and I’m just seeing this now so devastated
A good trip around there- Thanks - super beach & pools.. The rooms amazing - yes I would have liked a ' hoover up ' while drinks on the balcony or at the infinity. Food looks great - think I would like to go there but so without the balcony. The Goudi building thing is awesome. Bless Badger.
We have a phrase here in Scotland - "All fur coat, and no nickers". Essentially means that something, or someone, looks glamourous and classy, but lacks actual substance. It seems to sum up this hotel.
I was at Barcelona last year and literally walked the whole city. Very beautiful, safe, and everyone there looks good. I was also surprised the food prices were alot less than America.
Always a good day when Tim posts 👍
Tim you’re amazing, I love all your videos & the way you’re criticizing the “not that good” things always makes me and my girlfriend laugh a lot. Keep going, you’re the best hotel reviewer I found so far
I appreciate that!
I’m coming to Barcelona in 2 days can’t wait 🍺 ☀️
Have a great time
Nice to see you Tim always enjoy your trips ❤
The 'infinity mirror' in the bedroom would have given me the creeps.
Yeah that's seriously bad juju
in the bedroom yes, also you should never put a mirror facing where you sleep, it redirects energy at you and it's bad for sleep, nightmares, restless sleep, especialy if you're sensitive etc. but full mirror wall on the 3 sides around the thub, it's quite trippy but nice. Mirrors in the bedroom, doesn't matter where they are placed give me the creeps but maybe I watched too many horror movies.
@scjiwfoewmsxc take your meds.
Definitely horrible feng shui. I would be startled at night and definitely have trouble sleeping.
Oh my goodness absolutely filthy that’s unbelievably, that’s the one thing with Dubai, you know it’s going to be absolutely pristine and spotless.
Please stay in the Broadwick Soho in Central London - would be good to see inside what a new luxury hotel looks and feels like
I like to boast to my nearest and dearest that I've seen many portals to other dimensions over the years, and I'm happy to report that that was/is definitely one of them. Good work!
Try the Marina Badalona Hotel, just outside of Barcelona. It’s new, right of a very nice beach, with similar views but soo much cheaper than
the W.
omg!! red carpet and red walls, i was shocked :)
Ugh, I would not be able to stay in a room that dirty!
Great video as always you do! I'm from Barcelona and thanks to you I have the opportunity to see this amazing hotel as if I was there. What a shame this dirty carpet and old stuff at this price! Thank you so much Tim! You do very interesting videos!
I've been binge watching your videos and realised how dirty hotel rooms really are 😭 even the 5 star expensive ones are crazy!
Thank you for sharing!
That's a no from me, expensive for a pretty grubby room, but the view was amazing❤
Me and my wife went to barcelona earlier this year. We didnt stay here but had a great time and fell in love with the city.
It's a beautiful city
Never stayed at the W when I was in Barcelona, but I can definitely vouch for their washrooms that I frequently used when I visited the beach 😂😅.
Pretty grungy room for that kind of money. Nice video 🎉
What a stunning location and a visual feast 😊l have always fancied going to Barcelona too.
Love this video good value for money l think ❤
What a waste of money! That room was so dirty I had to take a shower after watching this video 😅
Wow what a view. I hope you asked them to vacuum the carpet again. Not a bad place at all.
Beautiful hotel and location, on the coffee mugs the bottom are chipped.
I swear the minute you opened the front door and I saw that carpet I immediately said ‘that carpet is great for hiding dirt’ 😂
Timmy, you seem to always think anything that looks leather is! Trust me it’s not, that’s pleather aka PU. Real leather would never be sticky or tacky! Give it a good smell too, you would never go wrong after 😊
Thank you for another great video! ❤
It's like a beautiful castle! I loved the fruity church too.
Ed Bassmaster would love that view..
"Oh Would You Look At That"
I absolutely hate baths in the bedroom for several reasons. One the steam from the bath floats about the bedroom. Two if I want a bath and who I'm with is trying to sleep that's annoying for both of us. I have to stay still not to wake them up. Three I'm not sure I want to be seen washing my bits .
It's a huge no from me. So much so id not stay in any hotel with a bath in the bedroom
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤣😂🤣
Nobody's seeing your bits there. You're on the 21st Floor!
lol!!
@davidjames5 79 But drones are available these days!
@@lparky4409 What are the chances of that? Your hotel and your room?
Hi Tim. Wow, that “spectacular suite” was so disappointing and not clean. I laughed when you wondered where the water connections were to fill the hot tub. Awesome view! I love your videos and all your insight and humor on each one. Maybe you can check out Seven Stars Resort in Turks & Caicos sometime. Safe travels and I look forward to your upcoming videos! 😊👍✈️
I hope staff at the W watch your video. They could easily deep clean the carpet twice a month and "buff" up the leather etc, especially for £2k a night! Love the views though. I also thought the W might have a spa as well as pools.
I agree 100%
Florida native here 🙋♂️. I have been all over the world thanks to many vacations with family. When going to a beach or tropical location there is ALWAYS a funny smell at seaside resorts regardless of pricing. They always seem to be more beat up than resorts in other environments for some reason as well (walls and furniture). I have heard it is caused by the salt water and salt water in the air. I live on the water and will confirm that items corrode much faster out here
Barcelona is NOT a tropical location!
Oh Tim I would definitely have complained about the filth and dirtiness of that room.
Goth butter! I couldn't manage that bar drunk lol
Guadi's architecture is sublime
Tim, you need yo start traveling with a black light, i'm sure after seeing the results bed bugs wont be your biggest fear
As soon as I saw the carpet...I already knew.
The Hotel seemed really beautiful (minus the leaking AC) The rooftop bar, the restaurants, the beach & Poolside, plus being just a bike ride away from the city but that dirty rundown hotel room its self priced at nearly 2K? total deal breaker. Maybe a cheaper room at that Hotel might be worth it.
That is one dirty room ! 😮 thx for the video.
What a beautiful layout, but the cleanliness or lack of it lets it right down.
Thank you for the video, Tim! I did extensive searching before settling on the H10 Raco del Pi in the Gothic Quarter in June. I was surprised how few amenities most hotels had for the price.
Cant believe your room/suite was not ready at 3pm & then it wasn't even cleaned properly when you finally got to your room 😮 positives were location & views from room / balcony but to honest for nearly £2000 a night you would expect at least someone to show you around the suite & explain where everything is & how it all operates!!
They all get MASSIVE paychecks. No doubt
I loved the room carpet, the lights and the red hallway. I mean the design, a shame it isn’t clean.
Perfect for Sunday morning relaxation ❤love from NJ
Good morning!
The only thing I don't like about these reviews is always want to see everything at night lol with all the lights lit up
Undoubtedly a great place to stay, but £1,992?. A bit of taking the Arthur Bliss I think, and that's coming from a long time Marriott member.
this was tbf in July so peak season
Bits all I’ve the carpet. Unbelievable 😂
@@WalkWithMeTim No excuse.
I miss the affordable, and sometimes nightmarish, UK Hotel tours.
As such, I suggest The Mount Rooms in Barry, South Wales. I reccomend it now and until early Autumn, as we all know Wales can be rainy.
And if you go, do a bit of prior reading on how important Barry Docks were at their peak. We also have the 2nd highest tidal pattern in the world so seeing the low tide at Whitmore Bar, Jackson Bay, the Old Harbour or the Knap pebble beaches are something quite beautiful. We also have a tiny Roman Ruin near the Knap. 🏴
You have stayed in countless places that looked a lot nicer for less. 2k for 1 night and no breakfast is an absolute ripoff. Absolutely not worth it
Barcelona IS a ripoff ( not the rest of Catlunya though )
