Frommer's Review
Superbly located in the World Trade Center on the large jetty (Moll de Barcelona) opposite the Drassanes Maritim Museum, right beside the city's harbor waters, this innovative circular-shaped hotel was designed by Henry Cobb and I. M. Pei -- the man behind the pyramid at the Louvre. Its bright, airy, and spacious interior is filled with a 21st-century blend of avant-garde and minimalistic artworks and sculptures that are offset by marble and glass architectural details. The bedrooms, all of which have en-suite bathrooms and Jacuzzis, are discreetly lit and sleekly designed with warm plush ochre and orange-brown decor. The Presidential Suite on the roof enjoys magnificent views across the port to the city.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
