Barcelona Hotels Guide

One of my relatives has visited Barcelona recently and keeping in mind my interest in Barcelona accommodation, he sent an e-mail with the hotel review. I am going to cite parts of his letter here. Thanks him!“So, I went to Barcelona for a short break with Stacy, she has never been there and I decided to show her some of Barcelona sights. I booked a room in Ciutat De Barcelona, 3-star Barcelona hotel in Princesa 33-35. I had received favorable reviews of this budget hotel in Barcelona from some of my local friends and I didn’t look for any other hotels in Barcelona. And I really enjoyed this cheap Barcelona hotel.

Ciutat De Barcelona was in a great location. The hotel is not far from the airport (you should take the train to Estacio de Franca and then walk for about five minutes to the hotel). Jaume metro station is in a 5-minute walk. La Rambla and very busy main shopping area is reachable on foot. There are also plenty of bars, restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques near the hotel. All in all, the location is very convenient for exploring the city.

Our room was spacious and comfortable with all the basic 3-star hotel facilities; king-size bed was a pleasant surprise. A lady at the front desk offered us a room at the front of the hotel overlooking the street, but we didn’t like it because of the bath absence (only shower). Then she kindly offered another room which overlooking a courtyard, so it was very quiet all day and night long. The terrace and the pool area of the hotel were great; we spent a few pleasant hours swimming there.

Buffet breakfast was not included in our room rate and we paid extra EUR 10.25 per person for our food which was very good.

We liked Ciutat De Barcelona and recommend it for your frequent leisure and business trips”.

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.
