"Hoteles Baratos" en Barcelona - Cheap Hotels in Barcelona

Not every body has the budget to spend 100 - 150€ the night in a hotel, so I wanted to list you some nice and cheap Hotels in Barcelona.


   The Hotel Via Augusta is situated on the 'Via augusta 63', it is a nice 2 star hotel
   with rates from 60€ to 100€

The rooms have been recently restored and offer space and brightness.

A really nice Hotel where you will feel home away from home.

 If you like jogging, you will be happy in this hotel, as the director and Front office manager are joggers.
They would be more than happy for you to join them on a run through the city. Ask on advice as soon as you arrive.

The Hotel Sagrada Familia as indicates its name is situated close to Gaudi's famous Basilica Sagrada Familia, on "Calle Corcega 541" only 2 mn walk from the Basilica.

A nice modern 3 star hotel, that offers rooms with all comfort for a relaxing stay. Located within the centre of Barcelona and close to most landmarks and monuments that represent Barcelona: Antoni Gaudi , the Gothic quarter, the ramblas and the harbor. 

Enjoy this great located hotel with rates starting afrom 65€ up to 120€, great breakfast buffet and even a roof terrace to take advantage of exceptional views on Barcelona's roofs and monuments.

Hope these two finds will allow you to spend a great time in Barcelona.

Have a nice trip and journey, don't forget your sunglasses and suncream!!!

Madrid - Fitur 2011

Long time no news, Happy New Year!

This week I am in Madrid, in order to attend the FITUR tradefair(Feria Internacional de Turismo).

I am staying in a Nice Small 4 Star Hotel still called 'Hotel Quo Puerta del Sol', the name may change soon.

This nice Boutique Hotel is 2 minutes walk away from the famous Plaza del Sol, which is the 0 point of Spain. All routes are calculated from this point. 

Nice and clean Hotel, good breakfast buffet and very quiet  and spacious rooms.
Rates between 70 € - 150€. 

To enjoy a nice lunch, you can go to the retaurant on the left when getting out of the hotel, called La Finca de Susana, great Value for money. However make sure to go there around 8.30 - 09.00 pm, as it gets crowded very quickly around 09.30 - 10.00. 

Another discovery in Madrid for you guys would be the Hotel Abalu, very small Design Hotel with only 17 Rooms, but very stylish and comfy interiors. This hotel has an average occupancy of 92% all year round, so make sure to book in advance. Very trendy quarter, very close to the Gran Via and its musicals. Worth trying this very nice boutique hotel that opened it's doors only 2 years ago

My last found, an ancient typical madrilene Hostel, entirely restored and turned into a nice boutique hotel :

la posada del leon de oro. Website still in construction with template pictures, I have seen the rooms, they are really nice. This hotel also has a nice restaurant where you can enjoy some nice tapas and chose out of a large range of wines. they have a large wine cellar. 

I hope that this post may help you discover some unusual but quiet trendy and very new places.

Have a nice stay and relax with Tapas!!!
