"It was a clean room and the staff when I called was helpful and it was at a good location close to the Gothic area. The booking however did not mention that there was no bathroom in the room and the reservation number that the hotel provides on Expedia is not the same as the reservation number that you must use to self-check in which they send within their instructions but when you do not have service and cannot see the pdf it is impossible to find.

Top Barcelona Hotel Reviews

Arc la Rambla

10/10 Excellent

"Great location."

Rialto

8/10 Good

"This was a clean and comfortable hotel to visit the Gothic Quarter. Excellent restaurants and shops close by. A surprisingly generous breakfast buffet and restaurant on the lower level of the hotel. Traffic and crowds in the area can get congested - especially at peak hours - so give extra time if you are on a tight schedule. The only drawback is that the checkout process seemed unnecessarily slow. The hotel lobby gets very full of incoming travelers arriving early on overnight flights, and the hotel staff tries to accommodate them instead of waiting until the posted "Check-In" time. That is nice for arriving guests, but it severely hampers guests who are trying to check out on a tight schedule to get to a cruise ship or the airport, and it makes the small lobby packed with guests waiting for rooms and those trying to check out. I would use this hotel to visit the Gothic Quarter again, but leave more time in my schedule to reduce the stress of crowds and traffic."

Sallés Hotel Ciutat del Prat Barcelona Airport

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect place to stop before heading out on a flight - much better than expected. Model well-maintained property. Clean and comfortable room. Huge bathroom. Excellent breakfast buffet included. Hotel is located in a mixed business and residential area near the airport rather than actually on the airport property. That makes it much nicer, and easy to walk to neighborhood shops and restaurants close by. The Hotel has a free shuttle van that takes you to whichever airport departure terminal you need in 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve the shuttle van the day before at the main desk and indicate what time you want to leave. This Hotel was an excellent way to ease the bustle of returning home from a cruise that ended in Barcelona."
