Location, location, location
Advantages: Location, value for money, free internet laptop usage Disadvantages: Not many hangers
Spent three nights here with five girlfriends for a 'big' birthday and could not have been happier with the location, rooms, reception, cleanliness and atmosphere. The hotel is in an old building and has an impressive huge carved wooden door but inside all is modern and minimalist. The garden area behind reception is pretty but there are lots of steps to reach all the levels. We didn't try the bar as there are loads of bars and cafes nearby. Helpful ... ...'room only' as it is far cheaper to get a breakfast of anywhere choice in the city (Cafe de L'Opera round the corner is divine). Each of the three rooms we had was spacious and spotless, with big bathrooms and walk-in showers. Ours had a small balcony and all windows had blackout curtains as well as voiles. Like most hotels, it didn't have many hangers but that would be my only gripe. Each of the rooms had the facility to be turned into a family ...

A touch of class in Barcelona...
Advantages: Smart and classy, close to city centre, friendly staff Disadvantages: Decor may be too trendy for traditionalists!
Writing this review here in wet and windy Wales, it seems hard to believe that barely 2 weeks ago my wife and I were enjoying the sun of Barcelona. Its a wonderful city and our weekend there went far too quickly - in fact I think we spent more time picking a hotel than we did in Catalonia itself!
As I mentioned on a previous hotel review, choosing a hotel in a major city centre can be something of a lottery and can make or break a holiday. You need ... ...which closes at 5 am. It helps to be near train and bus links, but not overlooking a station! By the time we'd finally chosen the Pulitzer Hotel, I felt I had a PhD in Barcelona and had seen more city centre maps than its mayor!
The Pulitzer has a great location, just off Placa Catalunya which is Barcelona's main square. Its been called Barcelona's version of Times Square or Trafalgar Square but I can assure you that its nothing like those two - ...

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. -

Europark Hotel, Barcelona
Advantages: Great Location Disadvantages: None
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.

E-mail: heuropark@nnhotels.com Checking In
Checking in was really smooth, I had booked online and been e-mailed an accomodation voucher which you need when checking in, you also need your passport which they give you straight back. We were given two keycards and told our room number and directed to the lifts. Reception staff are very friendly and polite and the reception ...

Hotel Balmes - great hotel in a great spot of Barcelona!
Advantages: *Great location to Metro stations *Modern, clean and comfortable furnishings *Good staff Disadvantages: *Pool is small *Expensive food and drinks in the hotel
...we walked past! All in all, we had a great time in Barcelona, and staying at the Balmes Hotel was ideal for us, both in location, service and value - I really recommend it for those who want good value for money but no compromise on style or comfort. ...
