We stayed here for four nights in September 2006 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We arrived at Barcelona airport at around 10.30am in the morning. We got the airport bus which took us into the centre of the city and after struggling to get our bearings; we jumped into a taxi and got it to take us direct to the hotel.
On arrival at the hotel, we were greeted by a very welcoming receptionist who promptly checked us in at 11am - considering we didn't think our room would be ready we were made up about this. This is what you need when you have been up since 4.30am. The reception area is very open, had a seating area, and is fully air conditioned and clean.
Our bedroom was on the 4th floor. From reception there are two lifts which you can use or you can take the stairs.
We entered the room which was situated at the back ...
Advantages: Location, Price and Staff Disadvantages: Nothing, It is what it is!
I recently went on a trip to Rome, my first trip in fact to Italy, I love culture and history so this city was a must on my list. Oh and it's the year of the 'I' - the year in which I visit countries beginning with I, so far I've been, Ireland, Iceland and now Italy.
Location
*********
The Clarin Hotel is a 2 star hotel situated in Via Palermo, a street central to the city centre although on the Eastern side, and approximately a 5 minute walk from Termini Station and a 10-12 minute walk to the Coliseum and many other attractions.
I would recommend getting the train from the airport (either of them) to Termini Station as the hotel is 2 roads away from the station, and as long as your case has wheels or bag isn't heavy you'll be fine walking it.

Advantages: Central, cheap, clean, Disadvantages: holiday was too short!!
Recently, me and my girlfriend visited Rome. As we were only in Rome for 4 nights we wanted somewhere central so we could see all the sights and do all the touristy bits. We eventually decided on Valle hotel and we are glad we did.
::: Why the Valle Hotel? :::
There are a number of reasons why we chose Valle. The first was that it was central, about 5minutes walk from the main train station (Stazione Termini) from there you can catch a bus to anywhere in the city, or get the metro or a train to other local towns or further afield if you wish.
::: The Hotel:::
It is a relatively small hotel with only 40 rooms. There is a welcoming foyer, with a reception desk manned 24/7. There is also a little bar. The rooms are fairly modern, comfortable and very pleasant. All rooms are en-suite. The rooms were clean and inviting. All ...
