It was a 40th Birthday weekend spent by 7 chaps in Barcelona. The hotel wasn't too bad but the area was very suspect. First night 3 of our party were mugged and picked pocketed within 200 yards of the hotel. All 3 had been dropped off by a taxi and set upon by numerous Spanish thugs. more

I stayed two nights here with my two young kids. The hotel was recommended for my price range by the tourism office at the airport. It is basic. I paid 70 euros for a 3 bed room. Rooms were clean, service ok. But when I wanted to stay the 2nd night I was told the rate was now 90 euros... more

Selected this hotel on lastminutes.com , my mistake was, not to check tripadvisor report. The hotel is like a one star hotel , room was not clean , water was leaking in the bathroom., furnitures have been there probably since the hotel opened 50 years agao . Avoid this hotel at any cost!! more

OK so you can read all the storys of the muggers etc but of course you can get that in any city. We were a group of 8 staying at the hotel so obviously not an easy target but whilst it is in an unglamourous area you can see that the locals are trying hard to improve it. They are... more

PLEASE read this the other reviews and trust that this is not a safe place! The hotel is a 15min walk from the La Ramblas and its very unsafe for any tourist.

We wanted to go to Barcelona on a weekend break after finding cheap flights with Ryan Air! As we were on a tight budget, we were looking for a reasonable hotel, near the sights and most of all it needed to be cheap! Hotel Ronda fulfiled all of these requirements and therefore (with some reservation) we booked for three nights... more

I was really worried after reading some of the reviews on here, but decided to make my own mind up when I got there and I think it was great. My main criteria when booking a hotel in Barcelona was cheap, close to the centre and good standard and the Ronda ticked all the boxes. Upon arrival I was checked... more

Ronda Hotel Barcelona room number 305 It is really a great deal. I can´t understand what others expect from a 3 star hotel, because some visitors wrote bad critics of this hotel. Perhaps they had another room or they expect more than the price could offer. The hotel is situated near the center, 10 minutes to walk to the ramblas,... more

The first night we returned to the hotel after dinner to find the doors locked and no-one at reception, despite 24 hour reception service advertised on website. We banged on the doors but no answer. A man then attacked us, stole our phones, bank cards etc. Screamed for help, some time later the receptionist finally appeared and doors opened. She... more
