The hotel is located in the middle of the shopping and business district, near Diagonal avenue only 5 minutes from the trade fair grounds, the Sants train station and with direct access to the airport.
Recently renovated, this classic Barcelona hotel is on a surprisingly quiet street, sheltered from the urban hustle-bustle. This hotel is one of the best-prepared hotels for business travellers. It could be described as a classic urban hotel. Like all the hotels of the Derby Hotels Collection, this hotel boasts a collection of art, in this case including litographs by Miró, Guinovart, Tàpies, Mariscal and Hernández Pizjúán, which give guests a good sampling of contemporary Catalan art.
The hotel has 116 totally renovated and fully equipped rooms. The hotel also has a laundry service, room service and parking. Hotel guests may enjoy the cosy "Epsom" Scottish bar and restaurant service in "The Times" café. Guests can also relax in the swimming pool at the Gran Derby, just 10 metres from the hotel.

Hotel was lovely, clean and staff were very helpful. hotel is close to nou cam, about 30mins walk or 3 metro stops away. not walking distance to la rambla but the metro bus is so efficient that this was not an issue. metro 59 gets you there in about 15mins.
Safe not working in our room but staff kept our money and passports in the safe at reception.14 Apr 08
Clean, reasonably central hotel provided a good base for exploring the city.
a short walk to bus stop on the 'bus turistic' routes. about 6 euro for a taxi to placa catalunya.Small room. no kettle/tea/coffee facilities.
the hotel claims all rooms are soundproofed but sensitive guests will not like the noise from neighbours' bathrooms, people walking by in the corridor or the bottle bank in the street.
definitely not a 4* hotel by uk standards, but not uk prices either!
