Our 4 day trip to Barcelona was excellent. We booked the Nouvel thro' Travel Republic without hassle and at a good rate. The location could not be more central and within a 5 minute walk from Placa Cataluya/Aerobus stop from the airport. Other reviewers complain about the hard beds but in all our stays in Spain (30 years+) they are... More

The hotel is located only 5 minutes walk from Placa Cataluyana- the hub of the tour bus system- and the drop-off point for the Aerobus from the airport. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially as my wife was ill when we arrived. Santa Anna- the street location of the hotel is pededestrian and is served by many good cafes,... More

Its an old hotel, but the room looks brand new. I had the room with a terrace(unfortunately with no view). The bathroom was strangely huge(bigger than the bedroom). Bed was a bit hard. And I hate that you have to put deposits for the TVs remote control Excellent location, 1 minute walk to Las Ramblas and 5 minutes to the... More

The hotel is old but that means the rooms have high ceilings. We had a triple family room which was intelligently laid out. The street view meant we also had a couple of balconies too! Room was clean and neat. Heating was good as was sound-proofing - not bullet proof but effective. Service was efficient and good. Didn't try the... More

The location was great, the room was clean but so cramped. I traveled solo and paid for a double room. I thought they gave me a single room in error but was told it was indeed a room for two people. I tried the breakfast the first day and it was not worth it. The most irritating was the "nickeling... More

This is probably the best location you can get at a great price, at the city centre, everything is buzzing, you are at a 2 minute walking distance from the shops and most importantly the sightseeing hop on hop off buses! The retail therapy experience is out of this world! Get the Aerobus from the airport and it stops 2... More

The hotel is in a pedestrian area just off the Ramblas very close to Placa Catalunya. It does not have a car park - we took our hire car back to the airport and travelled on the Aerobus back in to the city - this took only 30 minutes and the stop was less than a five minute (slow) walk... More

Returned to this Hotel after previous visit in 2009. Hotel is in great location close to Ramblas and public transport to and from Airport. Have to say we were disappointed on our second visit. Had booked double room but upon arrival initially given twin room. Eventually given double room. Room was very small and beds not very comfortable. Hotel is... More

The reviews we ready about this hotel in Trip Advisor helped us pick this hotel and the reviews were right. The hotel was a 2-minute walk from Playa Catalunya just a half block off La Rambla. Plenty of restaurants and fund things to see and do all within a 5-minute walk. The room was more than satisfactory--the bathroom was gorgeous.... More
