Hotel Colón in Barcelona - Pictures
Description

The Colón hotel is situated in the city center of Barcelona, right in front of the Gothic cathedral. Therefore, tourists will be within walking distance of the main sites of interest of the city, such as the Plaça Catalunya square or Passeig de Gràcia avenue, where two important buildings of Gaudí are located.

The hotel, founded in 1951, is situated in a neoclassical style building and periodically renovated to offer guests a welcoming atmosphere and the best services. In a unique atmosphere, the Hotel features 145 rooms of different categories: single, double and double single use. Some of the double rooms have a balcony with views of the Gothic cathedral. The hotel also has two meeting rooms and the restaurant Carabela.

The Colon is a non smoking hotel, surrounded by pedestrian streets, is only five minutes away from Plaça Catalunya, las Ramblas and the port of the city. This cosy hotel enjoys a privileged location in the Gothic quarter of Barcelona, only 2 minutes on foot from Las Ramblas, a long avenue connecting the city center with the marina. Therefore, guests will reach Barceloneta beach in ten minutes. Moreover, the hotel is near the Born quarter, the church of Santa María del Mar and some of the most important museums, such as the Picasso.

The reception staff at the hotel are friendly and very helpful. the hotel colon we found was in an excellent part of barcelona. you could sit outside the hotel on a satursday afternnon and watch the group playing and the dancers performing. if we didn't stay at this hotel we would have missed this experience.
We were given a room at the back of the hotel. this was a standard room. for the price we paid i would have expected much more. the room was a bit grotty and could do with a make over. there was also no view from the window. on the plus side the sun shone and it was very quite at night.

We arrived to be given a dreadful room at the back of the hotel, which was dirty and smelly. the receptionist did manage to change us to a better room
Reception staff were not very welcoming. we also ordered tean from room service both mornings. it took ages to arrive, and on both occasions we got coffee instead of tea

Initially on entering the room there was a smell from the bathroom was as a first impression was poor although i corrected this myself by closing a small door to the ventilation shaft, however the staff service, cleanliness and location of the hotel was excellent. the only complaint would be that there was no tea/coffee making facilities in the room plus the mini bar was very small and could only accomodate 500ml bottles of beer&water.

Very friendly staff, in a nicely renovated hotel with all facilities, in a very central place of barcelona, the barri gotic. it is a 4 star hotel but in my opinion it deserves more.

Mooie kamer voor een persoon, met mooie badkamer en een dakterras; dit is natuurlijk alleen zo voor de bovenste etage.
Internet via de tv deed het niet, maar ik heb er niet over geklaagd. ontbijt kostte 16 euro per keer, dat vond ik vrij duur.
