Hilton Barcelona, Barcelona

...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=== ...

Review of Hilton Barcelona, Barcelona

I stayed at the Hilton Barcelona for 2 nights last year, and I must say it was not really up to standard. We were with a party of around 200 people - we spent a lot at this hotel, i am a smoker and was sharing with a colleague, we were all told to check in at 1 pm, most of my companions managed to...not me and my colleague - they lost our booking and through no fault of our own we were made to stand (well ok sit) and wait for well over an hour whilst ...
...Subsequent to this stay I signed on with the Hilton Honors card scheme, I must say that this is a pretty good loyalty programme - you get points on stays, jump the que treatment at check-in, and a 50-50 chance on getting an up-grade if you ask WHICH YOU MUST! ...

Review of Hilton Barcelona, Barcelona

I stayed at the Hilton Hotel in Barcelona last year for a long weekend and enjoyed it so much that we have booked up for another week in July this year. The hotel has around 280 rooms and is situated in the business, commercial and shopping district of the city and is only 15-20 minutes from Barcelona International Airport. It is on the Avda Diagonal it is close to all the transportation into the city centre. Take care if you have a hire car as ...
...has a typical good quality Hilton ‘american’ feel, layout and facilities. The rooms are well decorated and have all the facilities you would expect from a Hilton hotel. There were a lot of Americans in the hotel when we were there and they are ‘catered for’ to make them feel at home. Local attractions close to the hotel include modernist architecture with the church of the Sagrada Familia and the concert Hall, Cathedral and ...
