Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
This is the second time I have stayed here for an exhibition. The hotel is not too far from either the airport or the Fira and has good connections via the T3 tram, buses etc. The staff are extremely friendly and professional and the service very good. Standard Novotel rooms but with good WiFi

The hotel is OK. It's quite far out from the city centre but it's cheap so I suppose it's to be expected. There are various tram and bus stops a short walk away.
The rooms are a little dated and the facilities aren't great. The majority of the staff are friendly and don't mind helping, but some acted as though they didn't really want to be there.
The bar area is nice and there is an outdoor seating area which you can sit on and order drinks. We had a lovely staff member serve us , he was very friendly. The pool area was really nice, but unfortunately it was closed during our stay - it was a bit chilly!
Overall, we didn't pay much for our stay and for what we paid - we were happy.

Great hotel with a pool and breakfast option. Great for kids!! Although a bit far, it is close to bus and tram transit (30-40 min ride into the main downtown). Clean and comfortable and affordable. They have family room options with a Queen and 2 singles - kids were thrilled not to have to share a bed!

Firstly, all staff were very friendly and helpful for any of our needs. They are not to blame for the poor state of the hotel. For management and the owners, this is definitely not your average 4 star hotel. Rooms are tired, dirty and the whole site needs an urgent investment in refurbishment or drop it to 2 stars! The housekeeping manager needs to be addressed on what “room cleanliness” is, as it’s obviously not being addressed by the Hotel manager. Breakfast has a reasonable variety of items but again for a 4 star hotel providing me with syrup mix for orange juice is unacceptable. Instead of having individual condiments we are all sharing a block of butter, a jar of Nutella, a jug of yogurt. Just messy and more wastage than providing guests with individual options which can be put away if not used creating less food wastage. The hotel is a bit far out from the centre but you can catch a tram directly in and it’s relatively cheap too.

The staff at the hotel could not have been more accommodating. We arrived at around 8am, way before the official checking in time. I’d messaged ahead to ask if we could leave out cases somewhere while we explored Barcelona and the replied saying yes. When we arrived the lady on reception saw how tired the children were and got us a family room straight away - Several Hours before it should have been ready. Amazing. We were able to get a couple of hours sleep before asking for help on how to get to Barcelona. Another lady on reception gave us full instructions on where to get the tram and then the metro and was so helpful. After a full day exploring we arrived back at the hotel late (food served until 11pm) but there were no tables, the bar staff were fantastic and apologetic about the lack of space, they made us room and serve red us food later than normal which was great. The bar staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The only downside, for the money £74 for the one night I would have expected breakfast to be included. We paid about 25E but the children didn’t eat anything. Again, after a scone day of exploring we had a wait for the airport transfer, the bar staff let us charge our phones behind the bar and were so friendly. The hotel is about a 15 min drive from El Prat airport, it cost around 25 euros. It’s ideally located next to a great tram service so if you want to experience Barcelona public transport then it’s ideal, a quick tram ride and then a quick metro ride gets you into the heart of the city. Fantastic service

Average hotel, Friendly welcome and reception staff and restaurant, despite the fact that they wanted to make us pay extra for breakfasts over 3 days even though they were already planned when booking. Fairly clean room but bedding much too soft, bathroom from another era with bathtub, faucets and obsolete bidet, stained carpets in the room and corridors, very white hospital-style lighting… The breakfast room is very sad, very limited choice , the scrambled eggs from the day before are re-served! The same goes for some sort of cocktail sausages reheated and served cold the next day, a lump of butter in which everyone helps themselves! Cleaning above products not done for months, frozen bread, etc… Small restaurant industrial but correct dishes prepared and served by a single, friendly and professional person.

Check in was quick albeit the reception area looked a bit unremarkable. The rooms are very ordinary and packed the finesse of other Novotel properties stayed in. The room does not have a kettle which is quite odd for a property which considers itself to be a 4 star property. Upon asking at the reception I was told that the rooms are going to be refurbished in February 2020 and hence the kettle have been taken from the rooms. That kind of gives my review away. The rooms are very average at best. The TV is tiny and grainy. Suggest you to avoid this hotel until its gets refurbished. Simple. The hotel shows its age and is past its use by date. Rooms were comfortable enough for the two nights we stayed there. It is very average, but just not up to a standard of how I perceive a Novotel to be. It felt more like an Ibis property at best.

I think the biggest problem is the staff, guests are willing to accept a lot of problems if at least the staff talks to you with a smile or some respect. We stayed here for 5 nights and I don't remember a single staff who spoke to my family with a smile or with cooperation. In fact, every single time the staff seemed to behave like our existence was hugely inconvenient to them. Rooms are OK-sized, but amenities are really lacking, we got a free water bottle on only two of the 5 nights we stayed here, after which we were simply told to buy it. Breakfast is mediocre and with no variation from one day to the next. Phones to the front desk are not picked up at night, so it is not really a 24 hour front desk. But the biggest problem is definitely the rude and unwelcoming staff, I have travelled all over the world and it was one of my worst experiences. Also, the location is far from city center and not much to do in the local area. Overall 0/5.

I loved this hotel, which will soon become a renovated Ibis Styles with a great team that makes you feel very comfortable. The best thing for those who have an electric car is that there are several AMB Electrolineres charging points right at the entrance of the hotel, and they are very cheap. Although it would be nice if the hotel offered this service for free in its parking lot, it is not a problem either because they are very close and very affordable. The people at the hotel are super friendly. The guy who served me breakfast in the morning was especially attentive. I hope I can return to this hotel soon, because it is close to Barcelona and easy to get to by car or public transport.

No issues during our stay, with friends y and professional staff, checked in with Miriam after a long 14 hour drive from Lisbon, apart from our initial room was not a wheelchair accessible room with wet room for our first night however she made sure to address this issue next day with her front desk manager Tali who was impeccable by room moving us into one the following day without any issues. Miriam was also very proactive when requesting some electrical extensions due to my husband’s respiratory issues/ cpap machine. In fact they’re all very attentive to their customers, even though I was a work colleague as them. Only one slight not irrelevant issue but it might be a language barrier one is we in UK are used to drink Coca Cola Diet and they keep saying Coca Cola light, which is totally different as Diet hasn’t no sugar and Coca Cola light has. Either way we’ve had a few drinks and meals there which were surprisingly better than in other hotel Novotel we’ve had in the UK to be honest. A real treat Christian from the bar who’s a very friendly person. When we’ve had moved to our new room the following day a nice housekeeping manager by the name Espe( or Hope as very funny she told us, great caracter!!) we were over the moon with both Tali and Espe as they went without a doubt the extra mile. Ok the hotel lacks some refurbishment but the staff makes you feel extremely welcome and this is what makes people return . A huge thank you for all your assistance and hopefully see you soon, who knows? Also would like to mention other names for their contributions during our stay sick as Silvia, Josep, Laura, Martina, Vanessa, Alessandro & Paula.

You can buy the T10 card either at the airport or at the tram station nearest the hotel. Not sure how you are getting from the airport to the hotel? The bus i took took 50 minutes but stopped so very close to the hotel and only cost €2.20 each way.
I am not sure. However there is a website that you can use to determine the exact cost from the hotel to the airport at a specific time of day. Just google taxi fairs for Barcelona. They are regulated by the government. Make sure you take one of the government listed taxis. There are gypsey cabs that will rip you off. It cost us 32 Euros for2 of us from the airport to the hotel
