This is hotel is in a good location if you are travelling into Barcelona by air as it is only 10 mins walk from the main train station in Barcelona, Estacio Sants, In which you can get the renfe train direct from the airport Terminal 2 into Barcelona Sants, Train takes about 20 mins and only 3.00 euro's each way, Yes, As per other reviews, The hotel is out of the city and about 25 mins walk from the main tourist areas, Las Ramblas, Passaig de gracia, Placa de catalunya etc.., However, This reflects in the great very favourable online rates, Although the walk into the city is quite pleasant as it is along a main road with stacks of bars, cafes, eateries etc...., However, Rocafort metro station is only 2 blocks away approx 5 mins walk which from there is then only 3 stops into the main city metro Catalunya, 2.40 euro's each way or T-dia ticket is 6.00 euro's and you can have unlimited travel for one day in order to sweep up all the tourist sites and the metro's run until 2.00am,This hotel is at the right end of the city for Font Magica and the Olympic stadium which are only 10 mins walk away, Overall, Very clean, Friendly and very competitive online rates, Very much reccomended and would definately stay again if in Barcelona.

We had a great stay! The room was nice and clean! Even had a refridgerator. The people at the front desk were very helpful and nice. Spoke very good english. The hotel is only 3 stops from Placa Catalunya (La Rambla). 3 blocks to the metro, in a safe area. We liked not being right in the heart of the city, for safety and noise reasons. Since this is not a super touristy area, the restaurants don't speak much english and there aren't a ton of restaurants, but again you are a 5 minute metro ride from restaurants. We felt safe walking from the metro at night. There is a supermarket, smaller market and bakery within 2 blocks. Will come back!

A friend and I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. We had a room at the front of the hotel and found it quiet and very clean. Breakfast was €11 + tax extra but not worth the money and this was the only meal available. There was no bar nor anywhere to get a drink of cup of coffee in the hotel, although there was a mini-bar in the room. My friend was expecting tea/coffee making facilities in the room.

There were plenty of places to get a continental breakfast in the area but a lack of good eating places for an evening meal. It was about 20-30 mins to walk to Las Ramblas and 10 minutes to the Metro Station at Placa Espanya.

I wanted to add a review here in the spirit of giving as well as taking, since I'd used Trip Advisor to check this hotel before booking, and was delighted with what we got.
I'd agree with previous reviewers who have said the rooms can be small, but since we were there for only a couple of nights, it was absolutely fine.
We got a good rate, it was handily-placed for the transport network so easy to explore Barcelona, it was very clean, and the staff were very friendly. It's a short walk from at least two Metro stops - Espanya, Rocafort, and one other I think on the light-green line (can't remember what that's called!) as well as being a shortish walk from Sant, the main overground station which serves the Le Prat airport.
The staff were helpful, spoke great English, and were happy to assist in the best way to get to certain tourist attractions. The breakfast room is light and airy and serves fantastic breakfasts, and the central, internal shaft of the hotel which a previous reviewer said was dark, does have an attractive stained-glass mural on the glass at the bottom of it (if that helps!). In any case, you don't want to spend too long in your room in a city this exciting - it's clean, comfortable and friendly, so get out and see the city!
One final thing - our room was very warm, even in February when the temperatures were no higher than 17. I am not sure the air conditioning was that great, so going there in July or August could be interesting!!
