Good value for a hotel that is located within the city centre. Rooms are soundproof, stylish, modern and well-equipped. Front desk staff are attentive and helpful. Breakfast is expensive but a cheap alternative can be found a block from the front door where students grab a quick bite before heading across the street to the Technical School. The neighbourhood is not particularly interesting but has what you need in terms of food and stores. The subway line is only a block away for easy travel to more touristic areas. If you want a good, economic stay within Barcelona the U232 provides it. If you are new to Tapas, be sure to try out Maitea which is just a short walk away.

The U232 Hotel in Barcelona was a delight for two tired travelers from the cruise ship. The room ambiance was appealing, the bathroom was large and bright with an excellent shower. On both sides of a room divider was a TV where you could watch two different shows at once without disturbing each other. The breakfast restaurant had fantastic food, warm or cold. The subway was only a block away and in only a couple stops we were at the Sagrada Familia basilica. The staff at U232 was very helpful. They recommended a restaurant two blocks away which served us a fantastic meal with the fresh catch of the day. We will be back!

In a pleasant area of town with good local restaurants and about 10 mins comfortable walk to the main areas. A subway station is within 100 metres which for 1 euro a trip will take you anywhere. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with a high quality of finish. Staff were helpful and inobtrusive. Definately would stay here again for more than the two nights we spent.

I just spent another few days in BCN and stayed (for the 3rd time) in U232.

The hotel is amazing! Very cosy and elegant. Very nice lobby bar and friendly staff. One of the hotels I want to go back and back again. Just feeling on the right place there.

Room 711 features a great balcony/terrace with city views.

The location of the hotel is one of the best about it - situated just 5 minutes from Via Diagonal and 15 minutes walk from pl. Catalunya or 5 minutes by taxi.

Just take a look on the hotel website and You'll get an idea!
