Booked this hotel as near to Reus airport and our flight arrived late at night. Very friendly reception staff (at all times, as always a different face). Room clean but small, but we only ever use the rooms to sleep in so no problems there. Just a short walk to main ramblas and square. Not only would I say we... More

We picked this on the factor of price with the B&B option, paying 49 euros for the night, and we used it as a stop gap after a long weekend in Barcelona. Where do I start? When we arrived at first we couldn't even get in.... there is no door handle... they make you ring the bell for entry (possibly... More

Bathroom very clean with towels changed each day. Sheets on bed changed each second day. Room always cleaned very carefully. Breakfast is very good for the money. You have nice choice... More

Hotel was clean and staff were friendly and helpful with a good understanding of English. The room was clean but the air conditioning unit was old and noisy. Breakfast cost 5 euros each for cereal/bread/cold meats. The train station was literally around the corner so ideal if your getting the train somewhere. It cost 30 euros from the airport which...

This hotel is less than 5 minutes walk to the railway station, yet it is quiet. Fantastic pizza restaurant across the street. We arrived late but the staff was very helpful and pleasant, even when we had to ask them twice about the air conditioning (quite old fashioned machine and a little bit noisy). Our room was basic but very... More

Its a basic hotel that´s clean and has private bathrooms. Its close to the train station which makes it convenient too. The staff are friendly as well. The worst thing about our stay here though was that we are non-smokers and the place smelt like cigarettes. It even came through our room each night despite the fact that we rolled... More

I stayed here with six friends over three nights during the Santa Tecla Fiesta. The hotel is basic but excellent value at €50 a night for a twin/double. Triples were, I think, around €70. Rooms: All rooms were very clean and well maintained with effective air-con. The doubles are quite small (especially the bathroom) however the triples are big. Road... More

The room was equiped with (a really good) aircondition and television (only spanish and catalan channels). The hotel offered breakfast, we prefered eating in a bar around the corner. In the hotel it was... More

We were only in Tarragona for the night during a long (1 November) weekend and had real problems finding accommodation in Barcelona so opted for Tarragona. Most hotels in Tarragona were also booked up, but we managed to find a room at the Catalunya Express for 50 euros. As we were travelling by train, it was easy to find, just... More
