Top Barcelona Hotel Reviews

Barcelona Airport Hotel

Barcelona Airport Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel overall was good. Very close to the airport, which is what we needed. The restaurants and bars had lots of choices for food for different diets and young children. Some staff were excellent, and some were the exact opposite, so I gave my rating a “good”. The main thing to note is that the rooms have very poor sound insulation, so we heard doors slamming all night and a family with kids yelling past midnight on a Tuesday when we had to get up at 5:30am for an early flight. The shuttle is a great bonus, but it gets filled quickly so go early. The driver was very condescending. Overall, the good outweighs the bad and we’re already staying there again when we have less than 24 hours in between flights in Barcelona."

8/10 Good
"El personal en recepción fue muy amable al atendernos. Las indicaciones para llegar al cuarto fueron las apropiadas, así como para recibir alimentos. El cuarto estaba limpio pero el baño necesitaba un poco más de atención. No había shampoo para el cabello, únicamente jabón. En general, el lugar está bien."

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
"Heritage hotel" is more common in Asia and Europe, while "historic hotel" is a term often used in the U.S. though overall the terms are quite similar. The physical building and architecture of historic hotels tend to be what's most important. For a heritage hotel, it's mainly the cultural value as well as how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Barcelona have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In Barcelona, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown.
