We booked this hotel for after our cruise time. Location is not the worse - 25 min walk to major attractions, 10 min walk to hop on hop off bus to get anywhere you need to go, 10 min walk to the beach. I had a feeling that the walls in this hotel are made out of paper. I heard... More

Stayed for two nights Monday to Wednesday late April prior to a cruise. This was our second visit to this property. Overall I felt that we had received value for money. The location is in an area slowly being redeveloped and away from the city centre, but it has a selection of lovely bars, restaurants and shops including a well... More

My wife and I were visiting friends in Madrid and we decided to catch the AVE over to see a Barçelona match. We naturally booked the HIX and weren't let down. The hotel was within a few blocks of the metro, and walking distance of the beach and many places to eat and drink. We were only one metro transfer... More

The hotel is nicely situated, near the Llacuna station. It's not much of a luxury, but if you're looking for a nice hotel to stay in for a holiday, it's a good choice. Location is quiet. Breakfast is included and there's a big choice of things to eat. The staff is very nice and helpful. No safe-deposit box in the... More

Great location- a few blocks from the Mediterranean and the downtown. 30Euro cab ride from BCN airport and 20Euros to the cruise pier. Room was decent enough, nothing special. Fit all 4 of us comfortably. Shower was awesome! Lots of pressure, which was unexpected. The mattresses were HARD AS ROCKS! The only reason we slept well in them is because... More

The hotel was okay, but the maids didn't clean the room very well! I was really surprised that the desk and table were not wiped each day. The counter in the bathroom was not cleaned well, nor was the floor. Evidently maids don't clean as well in Spain as they do in the USA? I figured because we were in... More

Great hotel, friendly staff, comfortable rooms, good breakfast. Location is a bit far out of the main area of town (in an industrial area) but easily accessible to the metro; if that is something you don't mind I definitely recommend it.
