Is W Barcelona worth it on a budget?

DependsOn a budget

On a budget, weigh it — W Barcelona isn't cheap for what it is.

€€€€ from ~€400/night

An unmissable architectural icon jutting into the sea, where the rooftop bar, pool scene and DJ energy are as much the draw as the rooms. A blast for friends and lively couples; too loud and scene-y for quiet seekers or multigen calm.
