Stayed one night with my wife on a spring vacation drive up from Barcelona.
Recognized as Priority Member immediately and warmly received upon check-in.
Hotel is located right on the main avenue beach front. Everything is first class from the hotel decor, facilities, to room comfort.
Staff provided prompt and excellent service. Room was large with great view to beach.
Hotel has own beach facilities.
Valet parking was very reasonable.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by sweven72 Great staff and excellent location
I have stayed at the Carlton for many years during the TV markets and on one occasion where we had a brief but memorable family holiday. The location is great and the rooms gracious but I stay because the staff have always been more than just courteous and efficient. They have assisted me in many ways and their friendly attitude, cheerful greetings and support during very busy times has been greatly appreciated. M. Sube and his colleagues at the front desk and the concierges make me feel so comfortable that my family jokes that the Carlton is almost my second home. Every one of my stays at the Carlton over what must now be some 20 years has been delightful. I only wish that you would install more power points near the desk as I am sure that I am not alone in having to trail power leads across the room to plug in all the gear we now have to travel with. And I realise that it is Intercontinental policy (and not the Carlton) but given the room rates at Intercon hotels I find the idea of charging for WiFi connection rather outrageous when you can get a free connection at much cheaper hotels or even at a cafe (where you are only paying for a cup of coffee).

The thing that makes the Carlton is the staff. So welcoming, friendly and helpful unlike so many hotels I stay in. Makes such a difference.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by DAzurTrader A memorable Stay
This was our second stay at the Carlton.
We enjoy the service and atmosphere. The rooms are well appointed and large and even those awaiting refurbishment are enjoyable.
The location cannot be beaten. A lovely place to stay.
Points for improvement would be:
1. Front desk. Just 2 people to do the morning check out led to an unacceptable delay.
2. Consider adding hot drink making facilities in the room - a quick drink without waiting for room service in the early hours would be benfical.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Tommy7 Wifi for 24 Euro a day in 2013?
You gotta be kidding. Charging an InterContinental Priority Club member for wifi in the room when it is free in the lobby is so 2004. I will not be staying at any hotel anywhere that charges me for wifi ever again.
I have stayed at the Carlton for 15 year but unless this policy is changed, this will be my last visit.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by Kendo Nice hotel ,poor sleep
I have stayed at the hotel several times during the Midem Festival and have enjoyed it ,but unfortunetly this was different.The hotel had a very loud disco playing in the main bar each night from the friday and until we left on the tuesday morning 28th January 2013.The music was heavy bass dance music and went through untill 2 or 3 o,clock each morning and was thumping in our bedroom ,usually getting louder the later it went, therefore we had very little sleep throughout our stay .I spoke to several people in the hotel who also had the same problem and said they would not return next year as it was not in keeping for a 5star hotel.People go to Midem to talk and meet about music not to have to shout over a ibiza style disco ,which can be had at any poor quality hotel.
Unfortunately i did enjoy my previous stays when it was more civilised ,but i will not be returning next year.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Emmy bars and lobby often occupied by conferences
Very nice rooms and location. Still this hotel can not be recommended as hundreds of hundreds of conference members had their coffes and refreshments prepared in lobby and bars. For other guests it was often impossible to have a drink or coffe or sit down,as the open localities were totally invaded. Evidently The Carlton lacks rooms for brakes for its hords of conference members.
