Hotel Fira Palace

The three of us loved the relative quiet of the neighborhood in contrast to the central part of the city. We still had easy access to metro and even closer access to buses. We loved the bathrooms. Rooms were spatious. There were computers for guests but these were very popular so sometimes a challenge. Family enjoyed exploring restaurants and bakeries in the neighborhood.

Staff very nice, professional. Room spacious, bed comfortable, large bathroom. OK location but you must walk to Plaza Espana to pick up transportation to Las Ramblas or anywhere else unless you want to pay for taxis (which can get pretty costly). Plaza Espana is relatively close, but it is a bit of a hike so if you have any problem walking or don't like to walk much, it can be an inconvenience. Hotel is kept fresh-smelling and cool in the summer (can't say that about all the local hotels)and feels serene and elegant. Eating at the hotel is not always practical because the breakfast buffet & dinner restaurant are very expensive. Overall good value for the price, just a bit far from the "action".

Vacation for couple with 4 year old. Liked the size of room unusual in Europe to get this large for a reasonable price. We lucked on a very good deal through [...] by timing, 2 weeks earlier price was higher. Children under 6 are free. Buffet breakfast is expensive 18 euro per person, there are a few local places you can get more reasonable, these are not fancy and some Spanish will help get what you want. Location was fine not in touristy area, next to convention center(Fira), quiet and felt safe at night. Subway is excellent to get anywhere you want in city, station reasonable walk from hotel. Staff helpful when needed. Modern clean large bathrooms. 2 large beds in standard room. Pictures show nice pool and fitness center. We didn't have chance to use so no comment. Overall good place to stay.

This is a very nice modern hotel with a lot of amenities, very few of which I actually used because Barcelona is so full of things to see and do that I wasn't going to hang around the hotel. Convenient to Metro stops but not right on a big street so print out a map from [...] before you get there. The rooms are nice and are clean. Only 30 min free wireless internet daily - can pay for unlimited. Staff helpful and speak English. Definitely get the breakfast - a little pricey but a great variety and you can load up to tide you over till supper with maybe just a snack as you tour. Good bar.

From the moment we arrived at the hotel we knew we had made the right choice! The hotel was clean with great facilites, excellent decor and friendly, helpful staff! The gym and pool were both excellent, the rooms were well equiped especially the bathroom suites and the location was just about right! Not too far away from the hub of Barca and quite enough in the evening! I will be recommending this hotel to friends and family and will definately go back myself!

Well run Hotel. Very quiet. Room was large and well serviced. Hotel is near Mont Juc so close to major art galleries but a 30 min walk into central Barcelona. All catering especially breakfast. Happy to stay here again!

Ask for room overlooking the city.

It was an overnight stay after a cruise. We did take a tour of the city on a Hop on Hop Off bus. I was disappointed that on the overview of the hotel, it stated there was airport transportation. That is misleading because they didn't have airport transportation. Taxis are always sitting out in front of the hotel, therefore, you don't need them to call a taxi for you.

Very nice hotel in a fairly modern business hotel style. Location (right next to Montjuic) was excellent for us, but not necessarily for someone more interested in the central Barcelona activities. Quiet neighborhood. No personal touch.

The room was slightly larger than the usual and very clean. The shower with three jets was separate from the bath tub. There was a flat screen TV with very good reception, most programs were in Spanish but some news show were in English. The room included two queen beds, a love seat, coffee table, desk and chair and the usual closet spaces.
