Barcelona Hotels Guide

Hello!

I have recently spent seven nights at the budget Barcelona Hotel - B Hotel Barcelona and as I was very pleased with my experience, I would like to share information about this 3-star Barcelona hotel with you. I think that the B-Hotel is a great value. It is built in one of Barcelona’s most lively areas, Plaza Espanya. I usually prefer using public transport to get from the airport to the hotel, but this time I felt extremely tired, so I decided to take a taxi. It was quite easy catch a taxi near the airport and it took me about 20 minutes to get to the B Hotel Barcelona. Taxis in Barcelona are cheaper in comparison to other European cities, I paid 23 €. The B Hotel Barcelona turned out to be a few metres from the Convention Centre and Montjuic. The central part of the city is just a few minutes away by underground and the underground station is right opposite the hotel. The area around the B Hotel was very quiet and felt completely safe walking to the hotel at night after visiting some of my friends. I think it’s a plus point if you are a solo female staying at a hotel.

The B Hotel Barcelona is housed in a very stylish new building. I had already booked a room in the hotel, so I was given a very attractive and very spacious one. And there were very large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Placa D’Espanya and I must confess that the view was great! The hotel staff was very helpful and did their best to make my trip comfortable and relaxed.

Breakfast was not included and cost EUR 13.91. I tried almost everything they offer as I spent a week there - ham, bacon, tortillas, cheese, croissants, cereals, fruit, cookies, pastries etc. The food was OK.

One more thing I should mention is the small swimming pool on the roof of the B Hotel Barcelona.

The overall impression of the B Hotel Barcelona was very positive and I would definitely stay there again.

Hello all those reading my posts!

If you are planning to spend a couple of days sightseeing in Barcelona and if you are looking for a budget Barcelona hotel in the center of the city, then do not hesitate to book rooms in Hotel Cortes Barcelona. This budget Barcelona hotel is easily accessible from the local airport via public transport which frequently runs day and night to Plaza Cataluna and Hotel Cortes Barcelona is within a 5-minute walk from this place. The hotel is very easy to find even for those who came here for the first time. The fact that Hotel Cortes Barcelona is located close to the most popular “must-see” places of Barcelona is one more reason for choosing this particular hotel in Barcelona. Shopping fans would also be satisfied by staying in Hotel Cortes Barcelona: the hotel is in the Gothic Quarter on a busy street in between the famous Las Ramblas and Avenida Portal de L?Angel which is one of Barcelona’s main shopping streets. I should warn those traveling for business that Hotel Cortes Barcelona has no business facilities and internet access is not available. By the way the hotel is not a pet friendly one.

The room I got in Hotel Cortes Barcelona was great for the price I paid (room rates in this Barcelona hotel are comparatively cheaper than in most other Barcelona hotels of the same rank). My room faced the street, but it wasn’t noisy at all because of double-glazed windows. My accommodation was equipped with air conditioning, direct dial telephone, desk, safe, colour TV and heating – basic amenities, but everything worked. Breakfast was enough to start your day off and it was included in the room price.

I found Hotel Cortes Barcelona to be relatively cheap and pleasant to spend a couple of days.

Hello, friends!

A close friend of mine has just come back from Barcelona where he spent a couple of days on some business purposes. He has kindly agreed to share information about Barcelona hotel where he stayed during his visit.

U232 Hotel Barcelona, a 4-star hotel, is probably one of the most well-known hotels in Barcelona. U232 Hotel is its new name (the previous was Nunez Urgell Hotel), that’s really an abbreviation for its address (Comte d’Urgell, 232). Quite recognizable name for a hotel, I suppose. U232 Hotel in Barcelona is a perfect inexpensive Barcelona accommodation for those who used to a certain level of comfort and prefers to settle in the center of the city. U232 Hotel Barcelona is conveniently located both for business and leisure travelers - in the heart of the business and commercial area of Barcelona, and within short walking distance to Pedrera, Casa Batllo, Palau Robert, Casa Fargas, Casa Ametller, Casa Lleo Morera, Casa de les Punxes, Casa Calvet, and of course, the unforgettable Plaza Cataluna, in other words, hotel guests are near the most important tourist attractions of Barcelona. Public transport is also within easy reach from U232 Hotel.

My friend’s room facing Urgel road was nice – comfortable bed, good size bathroom and mini bar restocked daily (good choice of drinks and the prices were quite reasonable). All facilities worked properly except the air conditioner which was not powerful enough, and there were no tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Friendly staff of U232 Hotel Barcelona was always ready to help; good breakfast (not included in the room rate) and free internet access in public bar lounge are some of the good points.

All in all, U232 Hotel Barcelona is a good hotel for the price you pay, it is not cheap, of course, but reasonably priced.

Bye!
