The Princesa Sofia

Advantages: Very close to the metro station
Disadvantages: the bar is expensive

...night for free. The hotel is very close to the Maria Cristina metro station from where you can take the underground to see all the sights of Barcelona. A T10 ticket is the best value allowing 10 journeys for the price of only 6. The hotel itself was very clean and the facilities were execellent. It has a swimming pool, gym, spa and loads of salons. A word of warning though, if you book over the internet and get a cheap deal, it is unlikely that ...
...a bottle of beer. This can be purchased just across the street for 2.25 euro. I must however the hotel is brilliant and the service is first class. The rooms are cleaned every day and I left a tip on the TV for the cleaners but they didnt take it. ...

Review of Hotel Princesa Sofia, Barcelona

Comfortable hotel - but not a great 5 star

Advantages: Central location. Quiet and comfortable
Disadvantages: Current refurbishment. Limited facilities

...flights and 4 nights at Le Meridien. The hotel was rated as 5 stars and had a great position on Las Ramblas. Price for the hotel was approximately £150 per night for a deluxe double including breakfast. On arrival, it was disappointing to find that the main reception area and lounge was being refurbished, so we were directed to a temporary reception which was very busy, and full of cases as people departed for cruise ships etc. Our room was not ready, ...
...a room on the 3rd floor. Initial impressions were good, as it was newly refurbished in a smart, minimalist style, and the bathroom was large, with a huge walk-in shower. Unfortunately, there was no bath, so check on this if this is important for you. The view was also disappointing - the back wall of some offices and appartments. Due to the refurbishment, public areas were very limited. Theer was a small lounge, with great service, and rather expensive ...

Review of Le Meridien Barcelona, Barcelona

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 ...

Review of Petit Palace Opera Garden Ramblas, Barcelona

I was tickled pink on the outskirts of Barcelona

Advantages: Fantastic rooms - they thought of almost everything
Disadvantages: A long way from the centre of the city

...The Spanish hotel chain Hesperia has taken a slightly difficult approach to the whole 'girly-room' challenge with their 'Pink Room' concept which I experienced at the Hesperia Sant Just on the outskirts of Barcelona. Apparently you can pre-book a pink room at no extra cost so I'm not sure if that's what our secretary did or if I was just randomly assigned to a Pinkie. I'd probably been in the room for about an hour before I twigged that something ...
...the details I discovered that Hesperia had listened to feedback from their women guests and realised that we were sick of massive bathrobes, slippers that were a zillion times too big and likely to trip us up, trouser presses but no iron, the wrong kind of coat hangers, a shaving kit but no cotton wool, lousy lighting in the bathrooms all those other little niggles. Hesperia had then set about designing a more customised woman-friendly experience ...

Review of Hesperia Sant Just, Barcelona
