AC Hotel by Marriott Victoria Suites, Barcelona, Spain [Master Thread]

The AC Victoria suites Barcelona hotel is located in an upscale area where the wealthy live their life. It's a quiet area quiet and surrounded by Parcs. Its also near the famous Camp Nou. Distance to the metro is appr. 10 min walking.The location is rather far from the beach.
The receptionists are friendly and helpful. Mrs F. the reception manager was very welcoming and helped me with information regarding transportation.

The apartment was very spacious, luxurious and the interior was designed with warm colours.
The Kingbed was very comfy and large. The apartment offers a balcony with seats and a small table.
I was lucky to have some view, but most apartments on the lower floors do not offer a view.
Upon arrival I noticed a welcome gift, a nice red wine with mixed nuts. I felt at home!

The kitchen offers a Nespresso machine, a fridge, an oven and two induction plates. If you want to cook, you have to arrange pots, pans etc via the reception for a fee per night
The bathroom offers a rainshower.and instead of all the small hotelbottles with shampoo etc, you will find the wall-mounted dispensers. Definitely better for our environment!

Restaurant Santa Clara
Dinner and breakfast
The restaurant did not meet up to my expectations, they were zero flexible regarding adjustments to their dishes to make them vega(n). This was the case with dinner and breakfast, though they excused for the situation and admitted I had a poor breakfast.
They referred to the reception, since they did not receive information regarding a request for vegan breakfast or dinner for a guest.
The service is friendly and only a few of the waiters speak English.
In the meantime I have contacted the reception and they contacted the restaurant. I seems the restaurant will be trying to offer more vega(n) options

The tv did not offer any English stations, but I have information from the reception they will work on this and next month they will offer various English tv stations.
