“Close to Metro”

Just a few blocks from the Metro. Upscale hotel. The surrounding area is mostly light industrial. Just a few blocks up the street is a small store where you can get drinks for your room. Being close to the metro stop was the plus. Has an in room safe for 2 Euro a night. Well worth the security.

“Would definately go back to stay there again”

The hotel is not located in the hub of barcelona's busy centre. Therefore if you're a person who does not like to be on top of all the tourists then Pere IV is for you. However there is great access to all the attractions via the Metro. The hotel is closet to Metro station 'Bogatell' (yellow line) and trains run very frequently. The hotel is situated on a main road amongst garages and several nightclubs so if u fancy gettting involves in some authentic Spanish night life then this is also the place for you. if u are a female travelling on your own then i would reccommend for u to stay in a more tourist area as altho i didn't find it unsafe, it was v quiet sun-thurs with v few people, bars, restaurants available. it is very much for a place for the locals. The hotel itself is excelent. staff, cleanliness and comfort is great. but I found the Spa and fitness facilities to be below average. Sauna was cold, pool freezing & jacuzzi not well maintained. However, with all the points in mind, the good far out weigh bad. Would def stay again.

“Good Hotel, Shabby Neighborhood”

Very nice modern hotel if you don't mind the surrounding area. The staff was much more helpful than other Barcelona hotels we have stayed in and the Bogatell Metro station is convenient once you learn the stops near your destinations. However, you may have to step around some dog poop on your way through this transitional neighborhood.

“Good hotel for a good price”

The hotel is located a couple of KM from the center and this is probably the reason for the low price. The hotel is good and worth the price.

“Excellent Service”

A superb hotel within 10 mins walk of the beach and the open top sight seeing bus. The reception staff were excellent providing maps and directions. Beautiful food in restaurant and great pool

“Great hotel, although the location could be better”

My girlfriend and I stayed here during a trip to Barcelona for my 40th birthday, and were very impressed with the hotel. The area in which it is situated is not the best, as it is somewhat run down and industrial, but we didn't feel unsafe. It is only a two minute walk to the nearest Metro station (Bogatelle) from where frequent, clean trains run every few minutes to the city centre, although the corner at which the Metro station is located always had an unpleasant smell! The hotel's leisure facilities have been newly renovated, and we took full advantage of the excellent spa pool with its high pressure water jets. The reception and bar area was of a very high standard and the drinks prices reasonable for Barcelona. Front desk staff were welcoming and helpful at all times. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to other travellers.

“Great hotel in a great city”

Don't be put off by the slightly down at heel look of the area when you walk to the hotel from the Metro, it's actually safe and well located for the beach as well as easy access to city centre. Staff were excellent and restaurant food lovely. Breakfast croissants with hot chocolate in the bar and late night snacks both to be recommended. Definitely recommend staying here.

“Good choice of hotel”

This is a very good hotel. It is a 10-15 minute walk from the Port Olympic and beach area and only a few minutes from a Metro station. The receptionists were multi-lingual and extremely helpful. The general area initially seems industrial but there are a few bars, eating places close by and a few discos / clubs.One of the best music clubs in Barcelona 'Razamataz'is on the next block. Cannot comment on the breakfast as in our case this was not included but at 12 Euro a bit expensive but typical for hotels in Barcelona. it is best explore and try local bars/cafe. Overall we were very satisfied with our stay.

“Come and Stay!”

Have stayed in hotel before the staff and atmosphere is lovely and welcoming, the rooms on the inner side of the hotel is not the best in the world so try and gain the outer rooms on the hotel otherwise you will be facing inwards to the inside swimming pool and have the echo of a tunnel and aircon noise. The outer rooms are so much better and not loud from traffic. The price of alcohol in the bar area is very reasonable for a hotel. Location is brilliant, Bogatell is only a couple of stops from La Rambla and a 7 mins walk from Icaria very near to the Marina.

“Superb hotel shame about the location”

Firstly the hotel is within walking distance of two metro stations (bogatell - 5mins) or Marina (8 mins). It's probably better to use the Marina stop as it's on Line 1 which is much easier to get around on. The hotels location seems to be on the fringes of a more run down industrial area of Barcelona with many boarded up areas and graffiti. The hotel itself if brilliant and matches up to many 4* I have visited in the UK and abroad. The staff all speak English and very eager to please. We never ate in the restaurant as ate out. We opted out of the €13 a head buffet breakfast and instead got the Coffee and Croissant for €5.50 in the bar. Our Days started early, breakfast, walk to the marina metro station and then subway hopping from destination to destination. Back to the hotel by 6-7pm (before dark# for a chill out in the spa. It’s not a full size pool and in fact is only really a bathing pool with water jets etc #very good water jets). The tropical shower really refreshes you. Then down to the well stocked bar for a club sandwich and some drinks. On the whole if you are confident traveller the location is really not an issue. This is the only ‘down’ side to the hotel however you do get 4* hotel for 3* money when compared to hotels more centrally located. The metro is really good for getting around and feels very safe. However with any big city watch your stuff for pick pockets etc. I would stay here again.
