Really central location and very large room a great price. Ideal with children. Breakfast buffet reasonable but it costs Euro 12-per person. At least are children to 6 years free of charge. Unfortunately is at the hotel a lot Dilapidated. The Fenstergriff be in the room nearly fell off. The carpets were disliked. The indoor swimming pool was very dingy. To three days were still the same Pavement and many hair on the floor. Nevertheless a great stay in a pleasant hotel. read more

The hotel is located in a quiet area and is nevertheless only 4 subway-stations away from the center. In 2 minutes on foot one is the magic fountain, the evenings at certain times an incomparable mountain spectacle offers! When direct booking on the homepage of the hotel we got a cheap long stay rate with an upgrade to an executive room. This was huge and wonderful furnished. There was not only a couch and the desk, but even a dining table with 2 chairs. After strenuous Sightseeing you could as wonderful relaxation. Only a coffee/ Teekochmöglichkeit the whole can be ... improved. Further suggestions for improvements: a shoe cleaning machine and a renovation of the swimming pool. But apart from that everything was excellent. Our in short: we should again to Barcelona fly, then we will certainly again in this hotel live! read more

We had the Fira Palace for one night on our way back after a cruise. The hotel is located close to the Placa Espania below the Montjuic in the immediate vicinity of the exhibition center of Barcelona; d. H. no exhibition = low price. It is a 4 star hotel, which this category also really do it justice. For Spanish standards huge room with two double beds, couch, desk, large flat screen TV, in-room safe. The bathroom with bathtub and separate shower, a glass door separate toilet with bidet; two sinks. Several free Internet terminals with a printer for guest ... use. The attached to the pool in depsperate unfortunately made not the cleanest. Breakfast (cost strong 18 Euro) not as early flight home. read more

    The room was very large (mini bar, safe, telephone, TV). The beds were very comfortable and came with lots of pillows. The bathroom was surprisingly large and had a bathtub, separate shower and separate toilet. Hair dryer was available, of course. The temperature in the room could easily be adjusted (air conditioning, heating).

    The hotel is located on a quiet street right by the exhibition center of Barcelona. The metro station (L1, L3) Espanya is about 5 minutes walk away. Within three stops to the Ramblas and the harbor. Aerobus from airport also stops at the station Espanya (around 25 minutes, per person 5€). A taxi costs approximately €20 .
