Hotel Regencia Colon

Great location!

This affordable hotel is in an amazing location. Located in the historic Barrio Gotico, this hotel is centrally located close to some of Barcelona's best attractions and nightlife. The rooms could use a face lift, but they were clean and well maintained. I would definitely return and recommend it to my friends and family.

Convenient location

Convenient location. Our stay was very short, and we really wern't in the room much but the room was clean and comfortable.

Great hotel in outstanding location

Great hotel, great location, great price. Cannot ask for more. Strongly recommed this hotel.

Yes - with reservations

If you want a hotel reasonably priced in a great location in Barcelona, then this is for you. The major disadvantage is exactly the same reason - it is so centrally placed that there are always a lot of people around and so the area tends to be very noisy all of the time. If you are a light-sleeper then this is not for you. When I arrived I had a room that had a connecting door to the next room. The door was paper thing which meant that when the people next door were talking it was like they were in my room with me. This was disturbing in the middle of the night! There were also people in there who kept trying the door. I spoke with the staff and they were very helpful and understanding and they changed the room as soon as they could. The staff generally were very nice and helpful. Wi-fi is available with a code generated by the desk, but you have to go to the Hotel Colon next door and it only works in their lobby.

Great location, but terrible room

Starting with the positive, this hotel is situated nicely. The location is wonderful, just one block from the cathedral and a couple of blocks from Las Ramblas. We walked to everything with ease because of the great location. The price was high, but given the location was acceptable. The room, however, left much to be desired. We got a corner room, which was small due to its location. Perhaps the other rooms were more spacious, but this was very small. The bed was hard as a rock and didn't even give when you sat on it. Furnishings and linens were extremely dated and worn from use. The downfall of a great location is street noise, and this hotel has plenty. Against our better judgment, we attempted to sleep on the hard bed, but obviously couldn't get comfortable. But even if we could have found any comfort in the bed, the street noise kept us awake all night. It echoed into the room as though we were reveling along with the passers by. As though that weren't enough, every time we or our neighbors used the toilet or ran the water, a high pitched aria of screeching would fill the room for several minutes. Perhaps we should have taken that as a sign to get up and go join in on the fun outdoors! The room was very clean (floors, bathroom, etc.) and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was overpriced. The common areas need a deep carpet cleaning (lobby & stairs)and the interiors would benefit from an update. We wouldn't stay here again, but if you do, ask for a room in the back. That won't soften the bed or eliminate the ear piercing pipe sounds, but it may minimize the street noise.

You won't find a better bargain

This hotel is in the heart of the Gothic area just steps away from the famous and beautiful Barcelona Cathedral. I don't think you could find a better location. Walls are a bit thin and the beds are a bit hard, but considering the location and price, I can't imagine finding a better deal. The staff was incredibly courteous and helpful. After a pickpocket got my wallet the front desk allowed me to use their phone to make all the international calls I needed to notify credit card companies and banks totally free of charge. Rooms are larger than I expected based on general feedback I had heard earlier regarding the size of rooms in Barcelona. If you want to be in the middle of things and are willing to give up a little comfort this is the place.

Location Location

This hotel puts you right in the center of the Bari Gotic. It is next to a big plaza and feels very safe. Excellent choice for single women. The decor is kind of drab but the staff is helpful and friendly and the rooms are large, clean, and comfortable. Nothing fancy but totally serviceable. Breakfast is a bit pricey considering all the cafes nearby. And if you are sensitive to noise you might request a room at the back. All in all a good value and quite satisfactory.

Loved it.

We stayed two nights as a pre- cruise stay over and fell in love with it. It is right in the middle of the Gothic area of the city. It was easy to get around from the hotel. We took the Airobus from the airport. It drops you off at the city center which is only a couple of blocks from the hotel and easy to walk. The hotel was clean, comfortable and centrally located. I would give it a 5 out of 5.

Too expensive

This hotel was clean and the staff was helpful but it was difficult to find. and it was too expensive for the type of room we had

Great service, good value

It was a delightful stay in a good location in the Gothic Quarter. Pleasantly surprised at the excellent front desk service. All were very helpful on places to see, where to eat and made it easy by getting reservations to a show and restaurant. It is tucked away...a tad hard to find...heard the noise from outside...but was a great value. We'd certainly go back because of the location and the value.

California resident.

The hotel was very good. I would stay there again.

Great Location

The staff was helpful and friendly. The location is outstanding. Our room was very well maintained and much larger than we expected.

Great Hotel For Location and Cost

The overall hotel experience was good. The hotel’s location was great. The hotel and the room were clean. The staff was very helpful with suggesting places to go and eat. No complaints. The room size was fine for the 2 days we spent there.
