Spain hotels
 
I am going to Barcelona for the first time. I have narrowed the hotels to the following 3:
-Gran Duc
-Hotel Continental
-Palacio San Martin

good location and comfort are the priority. Or anything in the 100E range.

I am new at this so be gentle

100€/night is possible at the Banys Orientals, Axel, chic&basic Born, Colors, Hostal Gat Raval and a few others.

The Hotel Gran Duc is only available at under 100€/night on the weekends. I'm not familiar with the other two hotels.

Thanks, Robert

I do have a reservation which can be cancelled for the Gran Ducat - do you know anything about it? I wanted Banys but they were booked. I don't know anything about Axel or Colors, but will take a look.

Is there a message there? It only says ttt.

I haven't checked out the hotel myself. I've only waked by, but it is a 3-star, just off Plaza Catalunya, so the location isn't bad. It's only a few minutes walk to Las Ramblas and close to El Corte Ingles if you want to go shopping.

The ttt is jus a way to bring your question to the top so it doesn't get lost in the traffic.

Thanks again, Robert. If I don't hear anything better, I will probably leave my reservation as is, but I would love to hear from someone who has actually stayed there.

Don't know about Gran Duc or Palacio San Martin, but we stayed at Continental and wouldn't stay there again.

P.S. Have you checked out tripadviser.com?
