I have recently stayed at Holiday Inn Express in Barcelona. The hotel provides you with the standard Holiday Inn quality. Fairly sized and clean rooms, clean facilities, complimentary tea and coffee in the room. Breakfast is nice, although gets a bit boring after 3 days always having the same choice of food. Staff is polite and helpful, the hotel itself... More

It was our second choice(we wanted to book novotel but it was fully booked).But now we know that we were lucky to stay there.We were very pleased with this hotel. The family room was clean . The location was close to the beach(about 20 min walk) & close to a metro station. The breakfast was rich and tasty. We'll go... More

Very nice hotel. We stayed 1 night before our cruise & 3 nights when the cruise ship returned to Barcelona. Far from the tourist areas but easy reach of buses and metro if you want to see the sights. We always aim to stay at a hotel away from the tourists as we prefer to eat & hang out with... More

I stayed for 4 nights at the Holiday Inn Express for a work conference. It was neither as close to the conference centre as I could have chosen, nor right downtown. However, it was a pleasant walk or very short metro ride to either part of town that I wanted to be. The price includes breakfast which apparently is not... More

Arrived into Sant's international train station and just took a cab to the hotel for 10 euros which was good value. Checked in early, was given a quiet room in the corner of floor 6 which did the job. The room was far too hot for me, went to the front desk to be told that it's early season and... More

I had a difficult time trying to select a place to stay in Barcelona for a couple of nights after coming in off a cruise ship, everything I found centrally located was extremely expensive and not worth it for just a place to sleep. Finally decided on this Holiday Inn mainly because it included breakfast! Was I pleasantly surprised! The... More

First off, I'll mention I'm a HI Express Priority Club Platinum member. I've used them all over, a lot. This one seems to have set a new standard for minimalist accomodations, however. As mentioned in other reviews, it is in a transitional neighborhood that over time should become more tourist friendly. That said, it also borders on a lovely Rambla... More

Stayed 3 nights at Easter in family room. Room clean and comfortable and more than adequate for our needs. Got free wi-fi as husband is platinum member so that was an unexpected bonus. Breakfast is free and fine - lots of choice and plenty of it so what more can you ask for! Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is... More

I stayed here, alone, for 3 nights at the beginning of April. I was very happy to be in a neighborhood away from the main tourist area. I don't know why one reviewer took taxis everywhere, the Metro is clean, felt safe, and was easy to navigate (IMHO). Just a few minutes on the Metro and you are right where... More
