Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Torre Melina offers guests spacious and modern rooms, some featuring bidets, complemented by excellent metro links from Zona Universitaria, including direct access from the airport, alongside a convenient (one way) free shuttle to Pl Catalunya. Guests often praise the breakfast buffet for its wide variety, though some have noted occasional queues at the omelette station. The lobby's grand appearance is also frequently mentioned, making the location slightly far from the city center worth it for many.

Average Stay with Some Issues

long time terrible check-in
The breakfast was good. It had a wide variety of options.
The check-in process was terrible. It took a long time. I was almost overcharged £800. A deposit of £800 was also taken from my debit card (I did not know about this).

windowless room shower temperature
I found the segregation system for breakfast quite unacceptable. Red level guests had access to a beautiful airy space, while other guests were directed to a dark, windowless room. this division, based on room price, felt inappropriate. additionally, maintaining a consistent water temperature in the shower proved difficult.
