Gran Hotel Torre Catalunya

Outstanding Hotel

This hotel is a little of the main drag of Las Rambles but quite honestly it was nice to get away from that craziness. A few minutes walk from the Art museum and the 1992 Olympic Stadium (which we happened to see a Madonna concert in while we were there).

convenient, but not great

This hotel is very convenient for getting to and from the airport. The bed was quite hard. The ice machine was broken, but room service promptly brought ice to the room when we reported this. It was fairly loud, with noise both from the street and from the hall.

Great location

This hotel is conveniently located near the Barcelona Sans station. This is the main station for the metro, RER and RENFE (spanish railroad). The area is safe, clean. The room was very modern and clean. The only problem was the bed was too hard.

OUTSTANDING HOTEL

We arrived at the hotel 9:45 am from an overseas flight and the room was available for early check in at no extra charge. The hotel staff at the front desk were extremely friendly and spoke english. They were very knowelegable and helped plan our sightseeing for that day. We stayed at the hotel one night and boarded a cruise the next day. The train station was a 3 minute walk to the hotel. The train was very convient to get to all the attractions. We used the train to go to the cruise ship terminal as well. It was about a 25 minute walk from the train to the cruise ship terminal. The mattress was kind of hard. The hotel was in excellent condition.

Beautiful Hotel for a Great Price!

I only hoped the hotel would live up to it's reviews, and it most certainly did! The room was very spacious, the marble bathroom was luxurious and the view was awesome and went on forever, and the staff was very helpful and spoke English well! I've never seen such a large hotel room in Europe! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone going to Barcelona! I hope I have the opportunity to go back and stay longer next time!

Conviently located and rightly priced!

I picked this hotel because it was conviently located near the train station. It came in handy. When we got there, we were told that there would be an extra charge (small) for my daughter, but I didn't mind because they gave us an extra bed. The room was clean and we had a good view. The only down fall is that kids were riding their skateboards across the street until late hours. If you have kids who go to bed early, I would not recommend it. Other than that, I would stay at this hotel again.

Great hotel for price, great location

One of the best hotels in that price range that i've stayed at in europe. very clean, rooms are bigger than most places in europe i've been to, and location is great. it's 50 yards to one of the main tain stations and also to the metro. i loved it

Great hotel, especially for the money

I really enjoyed staying the Gran Hotel Torre Catalunya, the location was extremely convinient being right next to the train station (which we took from the airport) and right across from the Metro. The mattress was a little hard but after a long day of sightseeing, not very noticeable. The maid service is excellent and left the room spotless after each day. The only complaint that I really had about the hotel was their smoking rooms. Even if you or your companion do not smoke, you will smell the smoke wafting in from the vent in other smoking rooms. I discovered that I do have a sensitivity or allergy to smoke on this trip through the unpleasant aroma that leaked into my hotel room on a few of the days (due to other smokers in close proximity). The was the only downside for an otherwise very pleasant experience. If you have any sensitivity to smoke or do not want to smell smoke in your room, just be sure to get a non-smoking room because even if you are not smoking, you will be able to smell it from others.
