Just back from Barcelona, where we stayed from 28th Dec 2011 to 1st Jan 2012. We decided to stay at the Hesperia Del Port hotel for a couple of reasons, firstly good value and secondly a reasonably good location away from Ramblas but within easy walking distance. When we arrived we were pleased with the hotel, the surrounding area was... More

My husband and I just got back from a cruise initiating in Barcelona and wanted to go in a couple of days early to see the city and adjust to the time change. After reading the reviews of this property, I booked with this hotel but was hesitant given some of the reviews I read...don't be! The hotel is in... More

Stayed for 4 nights in November. The location is spot on for the old town, Port Vell & the Metro. Yes it may be in a residential area with locals cafes & restaurants nearby but those reviews who said it was in a sketchy area are clearly more nervous types. As for the room it was clean & tidy with... More

We booked 3 rooms here for a 3 day weekend with friends. The hotel is in a great location - easily reached from the airport, close by to a central metro station, a 5 minute walk to La Rambla & to the port. The rooms are clean, sufficiently sized & comfortable. All 3 rooms were road facing & we had... More

Hotel located 10 mins from las ramblas. Do not walk alleys and side streets around hotel. Stick to main street down towards marina when heading too and from las ramblas. Hotel is clean. No Bar but couple of cafes type bars to the right hand side of hotel. Hotel ideal for stag partys, football matches etc. Not for romantic getaways.... More

We stayed at Hesperia Carlit for 2 nights and were very pleased with the room. It was clean, comfortable and worth the price. The location was ideal for us. It was a short walk (less than 5 minutes) from a metro stop and only 2 stops from Las Ramblas. We mostly walked from the hotel to may tourist sights as... More

My Husband and I have just returned from a 3 night stay at the Hesperia. We arrived late and were assured by reception that the street was safe, even so late at night. Having never been to Barcelona before, the street did appear a little seedy in the dark, however we found a great bar (fashion tapas bar &pizzeria), about... More

We arrived in Barcelona back in May, and stayed at the Hesperia del Port. Barcelona is a wonderful city and we enjoyed our stay. Positives: It is an excellent location. Quick walk to the train to Montjuic, and just around the corner from Las Ramblas and the Port. Negatives: (1) The twin beds that made up the one big bed... More

My sister & I stayed at the Hesperia del Port the night before our cruise. The location was very convient. We walked to the Columbus momument area in the morning to catch the port bus to the ship. Other reviewers mentioned the "seedy" area, but we had no problem with the area. We had a wonderful paella dinner in an... More
