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. ...

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 ...

Like sleeping in a 1990s IKEA showroom

Advantages: It's OK - honest - just nothing very special
Disadvantages: It's not worth the money

...got a booking at the Hilton Barcelona and were able to breathe again. First I think it's only fair to the hotel to say that one's experience of a hotel can be very different depending on the circumstances. Had I been there for a holiday, I might have rated it more highly than I did as a meeting venue - but even so, I really can't imagine I'd have ever chosen this hotel for a holiday. Location The first thing that's important to know when ...
...As the other is called Hilton Diagonal Mar, just nodding when you recognise the word 'Diagonal' is not going to help you! You will need to be explicit. The drive from the airport is about 30 minutes, depending on the traffic. The Hilton stands right on the Diagonal so the taxi will pull off the street onto the forecourt in front of the hotel. It's a tall, concrete and glass building - not particularly memorable, but nothing ugly. First Impressions ...

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 ...

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. Train from ...
...Address: Europark Hotel Arago 323-325 08009 Barcelona Telephone:93 457 92 05 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 ...
