A stylish hotel for business and pleasure

Advantages: Quiet location close to the attractions
Disadvantages: Reception sometimes swamped by large business groups

I stayed in thsi hotel for business twice in 2005, but it is equally suitable for business or pleasure. In fact, its location makes walking to most of the key tourist venues easy, whereas a taxi is required to the main business areas of the city. The hotel reception gives a good impression, with an alegant glass frontage onto one of Barcelona's intersections - although this one is much quieter than most. I found the reception staff to be very helpful, ...
...120 per night, but of course any potential visitors should check for current prices as these can vary greatly according to the time of year. Often, offers are available for weekend stays. My room on both occasions was smart, comfortable and minimalist, in the very popular modern Barcelona style. There was a free minibar with juices and beers and a fully marble tiled bathroom with gleaming chrome fittings. Rooms were very quiet and i certainly got ...

Hanging in the Gallery

Advantages: Great location, nice rooms
Disadvantages: The grumpiest staff in Spain

The Gallery is a hotel that I've stayed in many times on business and it's my first choice with my own money whenever I go to Barcelona for fun - but only if I can get a half-decent deal on the room rate. When I first started staying there about 8 years ago, we used to pay about £60 a night. Since the advent of the Euro and the increase in cheap flights to Barcelona, the prices of hotels throughout the city have shot up and this will now set you ...
...Our last visit to the Gallery was the weekend before Christmas 2005. My poor husband had to work through Christmas last year - the downside to a life catering to the whims of those retained at her majesty's pleasure. I decided to treat him with our own Christmas a few days early. I didn't want anything too complicated so since we know Barcelona pretty well and wouldn't have to do too much thinking or planning we booked dirt-cheap flights with EasyJet ...

Modern luxury dating from the 17th century

Advantages: Luxurious, Clean, Trendy
Disadvantages: Expensive, Not family friendly

The Hotel Claris is located at walking distance away from Barcelona's main city centre and main attractions such as The Ramblas and port, making it a conveinient palce to stay. I stayed at the hotel in 2008 and fell in love with it. As one walks through the main entrance, one feels as though one is entering an ancient, traditional Spanish palace, with paladian columns and achitecture, in fact, this is exactly what the building originally was. However, ...
...architecture with the neatest modern styles. The rooms are very luxurious with all modern amenities one would expect from a five star hotel. The food is also wondeful, albeit a little expensive. The Hotel Claris is a fantastic, modern, luxurious hotel that would make any city trip very, very memorable. ...

Great Location, Great Staff - Husa Meson Castilla

Advantages: Great location, comfortable rooms
Disadvantages: Not many facilities

...the hotel himself describes the Husa Meson Castilla as 'a simple two star hotel, but for those who are watching their budget, it is not only moderately priced, but also well located and offers an old-world ambience'. I would agree whole heartedly with this statement, but don't be put off by the lack of more stars. As you may know, stars are awarded for facilities in a hotel and not the standard of the rooms, etc. Whilst this hotel doesn't have masses ...
...prices. - -Location- - The location is perfect. Just down a well-lit and fairly buzzing side street off the Ramblas, it's a mere five minute walk to the centre of the action. The nearest underground train station is at the top of the Ramblas (probably an extra two minutes walk) and is called Catalunya. This is on of the main stations and, as a result, you can get to anywhere in Barcelona from here very easily. - -The Hotel- - The hotel is extremely ...

The Location Of Europark Hotel The Europark is a three star hotel in L'Eixample district on Arago. It is in a fantastic location very close to the Passeig de Gracia and a short walk to Las Ramblas and the Barri Gotic (about fifteen minutes walk). The metro and trains get you anywhere you want to go in Barcelona and its only a five minute walk to the nearest station. The metro and trains are reasonably priced. Metro is 1 euro per ride.
