The hall of residence ‘Agora’ is a three-storeyed building, situated on a hill just across from the stadium. It’s about 75 minutes to the airport by underground (line 3 to the Pg. de Gràcia) and by train (R2 from the Pg. de Gràcia). It’s ten minutes’ walk to the Mundet stop and two minutes’ to the beautiful gardens at the... More

Upon looking at this "hotel" on another website I thought, "What a great hotel, good price AND it includes breakfast? Sign me up!" Turns out this "hotel" isn't actually a hotel, just a student campus that gets rented out during the summer to travellers. At least the beds were clean and the breakfast was included because other than that, the... More

We stayed here at the beginning of August 2011. After an easy journey to Barcelona we were a little concerned that the Agora might be difficult to find. Not so. We caught the train from the airport into Barcelona Sants and changed onto the blue line (Line 3) metro straight to Mundet with no changes. Easy! At Mundet station there... More

The hotel is in quiet university place that is surrounded by park, natural beauty and sport field. It is very near to the Mundet metro station that is 10/12 minutes from city centre by metro. The reception service is excellent, room is very good. The hotel has lunch and diner buffet and the price is around 10 Euro per person.... More

There are no cleaning facilities (new towels etc) at your room, as well as there is not a fridge or tv, so that's not for a family or older people but the whole situation is very... More
