Clarea Posted March 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Has anyone cruised out of Barcelona, Spain? We are looking for a hotel to stay at the night before the cruise leaves, any suggestions? We've stayed at the Hotel Jazz several times and thought it was very nice and well located.

Arubamoose Posted March 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I can also recommend the Hotel Jazz. Reasonable prices. Easy and cheap to take bus to plaza with a short walk to hotel. Taxi to pier was a little pricey. We actually found another couple sailing on our ship that we shared a ride with.

Desert Cruizers Posted March 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the Barcelona Universal in 2011 and really enjoyed the Hotel. Our group of around 90 enjoyed the lounge at night for social hour. It was a 12 minute easy walk to Las Ramblas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Cruiser Posted March 13, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the Olivia Plaza a few years ago and would recommend this 4-star boutique hotel located in Plaça Catalunya in the center of Barcelona. Location was great as we were at the top of Las Ramblas, and could walk right out to the Plaça Catalunya and catch the HOHO bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrifk Posted March 13, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the Hotel Gaudi right across from the Gaudi House or museum. It was just a 2-minute walk to Las Ramblas. Very reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southerngirl8 Posted March 13, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the Hotel Gaudi right across from the Gaudi House or museum. It was just a 2-minute walk to Las Ramblas. Very reasonable price. I have also stayed at the Hotel Gaudi - great little hotel. Decent size rooms- if you can try and get one of the 2 rooms on the top floor! GREAT terrace. I have also stayed at the Hotel Colon. AMAZING HOTEL. I got an amazing upgrade to one of the rooms with this amazing terrace. I could have stayed there instead of going on the cruise!!!

Pmorton3360 Posted March 13, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Stayed at Hotel Lleo in October. Very nice and good breakfast. The location is great. Took Areo bus from airport and walked over . Walk a few minutes down Las Rambla then make a left into the narrow streets filled with tapas bars and great shopping.

negc Posted March 13, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the Renaissance (a Marriott property) which was located near Las Ramblas and near some Gaudi properties. We arrived on an early morning flight and was able to check in and access our room upon our arrival and take a brief nap before heading out to explore the city including a visit to the amazing Cathedral (Sagrada Familia) designed by Gaudi and still in the process ofbeing completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannahsmum Posted March 13, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at Hotel jazz, great location and the hop on hop off bus stop was a 2 min walk away. They have a pool and a great bar up on the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeesSummitCruiser1 Posted March 13, 2017 #16 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed at the H-10. It was very nice and reasonably priced. It is close to subway and bus stops. about 20 euro ride from airport and 10 euro ride from Cruise Terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryL Posted March 13, 2017 #17 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I think most people like the La Rambla hotels but we found a Holiday Inn Express near Rambla del Poblenou which is in a quiet neighborhood more to the north. We found the subway system in Barcelona very easy to negotiate to the sites and made our stay there very enjoyable Knowing we could get around easily and still see the beautiful city was a bonus. There are several good restaurants in the area also. We ate at La Broqueta, which was excellent. Good luck and enjoy your stay there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rewind Posted March 13, 2017 #18 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Third for Hotel Universal. We stayed a few days before a Transatlantic - the convenience of being right next to the metro stop which had the Funicular was great. Quick walk to wherever we wanted to go or hopped on the Metro if we got too tired to walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud_nine Posted March 13, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 13, 2017 We stayed in the H10 Universitat. Very centrally located - just a quick walk away from Las Ramblas. Nice hotel, relatively cheap for the area. I'd book there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dons44 Posted March 13, 2017 #20 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Hotel arts Barcelona is the most amazing hotel I've ever stayed at. Expensive but fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boontj2003 Posted March 14, 2017 #21 Share Posted March 14, 2017 We stayed at the airport Marriott in Barcelona. Great hotel, especially if your party is platinum status. Great perks. Down side is you had to take a taxi every time you wanted to go into town which was expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida_cruisers Posted March 14, 2017 #22 Share Posted March 14, 2017 We have also stayed at the Atrium Palace. Great location. Might try the Arts next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raven82 Posted March 15, 2017 #23 Share Posted March 15, 2017 We stayed at Chick n Basic near The Christopher Columbus Statue which is also the bus stop to the Ships. Hotel is clean and stylish in an Andy Warhol kind of way with a great breakfast and perfect coffee. Nice Staff too.

CRUISEFAN0001 Posted March 15, 2017 #24 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Highly recommend the Barcelona Hilton. Great rooms, great location, great service. If you happen to be a Hilton Honors member...they upgrade you to their concierge floor...which includes a nice food and beverage lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted March 15, 2017 #25 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Unfortunately the only Barcelona hotel we have stayed at is the Hotel Continental and I would not recommend it to my enemies. Second worst hotel we have ever stayed in. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
