Strawberries and Champagne for breakfast!
Advantages: Excellent breakfast, great location, excellent value for money Disadvantages: none that we found
This hotel is a great find! The location is perfect, just a 2 minute walk to a metro station and 2 minutes to the Olympic harbour. We arrived at the hotel by taxi, but apart from that we walked or used the Metro the whole weekend.
The area around the hotel was really quiet over the weekend, but felt very safe - my friend and I are both young females and never had any problems walking around the area on our own.
The rooms were spacious and well ... ...The breakfast was the best i have ever had in a hotel - amazing buffet, everything you could imagine - including the widest selection of lovely fruit. You can't beat strawberries and champagne for breakfast!!
I think we paid about £80-90 each for the 2 nights which included breakfast - worth the money itself without the room!! We stayed there in Feb 2006 so i imagine prices have probably gone up since, but excellent value for money.
We were only ...

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. ...

Vincci Condal Mar, Barcelona
Advantages: clean, modern, cheap, classy Disadvantages: bit out of the way, surrounding areas could be dodgy
My stay at the vincci conal mar was bizarre, very impressed with the appearance of the hotel, practically brand new, completely round, and very impressive on the eye.
after leaving the airport,it was a 20 minute ride in a taxi, approx 25 euro, the area surrounding the hotel is quite residential/ rundown industrial estate which was off putting to start with and not the kind of place i wanted to walk through late at night, the area is called diagonal ... ...brand new metro service, the area seems up and coming and the new apartments, shopping centre and hilton hotel certainly comfound this. the rooms are nice, spacious, and substancial discounts are to be had if you book via the hotels website - we got a 60% off infact! you are about 15 minutes on the metro away from downtown barcelona, and there seem to be three ways of communting about, 1 the bus which stops outside the shopping centre, 2 the metro, ...

A noisy room or a small room?
Advantages: close to attractions Disadvantages: noisy rooms, small rooms
I can`t believe that I saw this hotel at ciao.co.uk top products without reviews because I have actually stayed there last month. The taxi from the airport costs 28 euros but keep in mind that they charge for the luggae as well. I think that it was 3 or 4 euros per bag. Bring credit crads with you as they want to swipe it befor you check in. They need to hold some money in case of mini bar usage or some damage to the room. If you don`t have a credit ... ...a deposit.
The room we were in was really, really noisy. It is good that the hotel is situate really close to the main attractions and sights but it is also on a main road, so you can imagine the noise. Although it was better then the NH hotel in Dortmund where my room was literarly above the train station. If you want quiter room, they will put you on the back of the hotel, but the rooms are tiny. Honestly the smallest rooms I have ever seen. As ...

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 ...
