Traveller from Ennis stayed in August,2008
Comment
Location very central , just opposite Cathedral where Columbus' had the natives of the Americas, babtised in 1494 after he returned from the New World. Very close (400m.)from the Ramblas, through narrow shopping streets, and also the same distance from Placa De Catalunya, where one can get the Bus Touristic to see the whole city. Hotel very clean, conservative, and ideal for a city break.
Top Tip
When you come out of the hotel , your inclination is to go right because all the movement is that way towards the Ramblas, which is exciting, but as you get your bearings the street on the left will also lead you down to the port and there the bus touristic will also stop , just 50m. from the front door of the hotel.
Also the bus touristic costs 20 euro for 1 day but you can buy a 2 day ticket for 26 euro, much better value as you cannot visit everything in one day.
There is a restaurant called LES QUINZE NITS in a Square off the Ramblas which is well worth a visit. It opens at 19.50 and you have to queue to enter , but is nice and inexpensive. There are two Irish pubs nearby as you exit the restaurant , not on ramblas.

Comment
Hotel situated in excellent position. All reception staff speak English and can advise on all aspects of tourist information. Also, luggage was securely stored after check out until transfer to airport, allowing extra time for sightseeing. Will return when next in Barcelona.
Top Tip
Tourist bus is excellent value for money.

The 'Bus Turistic' is an excellent way to see all the sights, also the underground system is a great way to get around, get a ten trip ticket for €7.20, excellent value.
