Directions on how to get to the hotel should be clearer, specially on which exit ti take from the Vallcarca station. I walked half an hour at night without finding the hotel and finally took a taxi. A pity when the hotel is less than 10mn walking from the station. Otherwise, nice hotel, good service, well priced.

extremely noisy, building work either side, not to bad when you have ear plugs in, but as soon as you take them out you just want to leave asap. the fire alarm goes off as a test nearly every morning stupidly early, which is really inconsiderate. the food in the restaurant (the tapas) quite frankly I have had better tapas in leeds, im not sure what there idea of sauted potatoes is supposed to be, we ordered tatas bratas, which said on the menu sauted in spicy tomatoe sauce, we recived rosted (obviuosly from frozen) potatoes with a dollop of garlic mayo and some chilli oil squirted on top. that is not sauted!! I also asked if the salad was suitable for vegetarians which they agreed it was, i received a salad full of tuna. The bed was also extremely hard. on the plus side they provided clean towels evry day and made the beds so excellent house keeping. but they two were quite noisy. and there is a big bowl of free sweets on the reception. I didnt mind being a bit if a treck from town id sat bout a 30, min up hill walk from grasias which is where we went for the night life every night (has the best squares to drink beer and mingle in) if you can out up with lack of sleep and the noisy road, bit of a walk go for it.... i dont think i would go back unless they made it really worth while by dropping the price more...

Near the hotel, it's quite easy to find free parking. It's near a bus station, where there are also night bus, and a metro station, but the centre (ramblas) is distant by foot, Room was clean and nice. Breakfast isn't included but it's very big.

A very nice hotel with good facilites. The service was good and the staff were very friendly throughout our stay. Our only problem was the location, was a little far out from the major sights that we wanted to see. However there was public transport that took us everywhere we wanted to go. Overall a good hotel and great if you dont mind a little bit of travelling to and from as the price was much better than what we would have paid to be closer in the central Barcelona.

La camera aveva una piccola finestra con affaccio interno,ideale solo per poche notti.Nella hall ho visto una blatta!Il receptionist mortificato ha risposto che avrebbe provveduto e che si tratta di un problema di Barcellona. Non è centrale, c'è bisogno dei mezzi.Il parcheggio dell'hotel è a pagamento, oppure c'è posto anche sulla strada.E' molto tranquillo ma non vi aspettate di andare al centro a piedi o in poco tempo.

The Catalonia Rubens Hotel was NOT centrally located and was pretty far removed from the main area in Barcelona, which is the La Rambla area. The hotel was actually further up north in an area called Vallcarca. There was luckily a metro stop that could get me into the city, but it's about a 10 minute walk to the metro station and not a convenient mode of transport on weeknights after the metro would shut down between 11pm-midnight (check the schedule!) The staff at the hotel, especially one lady, was not friendly and not very helpful. When I asked her about tours, or even things in the area (she just guessed or assumed and gave me the wrong time that a tour office would close and I missed booking the tour.) When I asked a man at the front desk to show me on the map which way to walk to something, I verified the direction with him twice, but he had sent me the wrong way. Also, I was given a room where the toilet was not working and when I addressed the issue I was told it would be taken care of. Then I left the room for a few hours and came back at about 10pm, only to find that the toilet was STILL not working. I told the hotel staff about it again and a young man from the front desk walked up to my room with me and took a look at it, but then I was told I would have to wait until morning to have the toilet fixed. When I complained and asked for another room, I was informed that there were none available - and the guy said this without even knowing or checking at the desk. Then I raised a ruckus and FINALLY got a room (but it was smaller) with a working toilet. The bathroom was old and cracks were apparent here and there. Then - to add to the fun (NOT!) - on 2 days in a row I found bugs crawling out of the bathroom drain into the tub. YUCK! Another problem was that in the new room the phone was not working and I complained about it 4 times until someone FINALLY came to take a look at it. On the fourth time I marched down to the front desk and told the lady about it,

i loved this hotel. having been in barcelona 4 times this year this was by far the nicest hotel. unfortunately,as with most hotels ive encountered in spain, breakfast was not included in the price. however the price for the room was excellent for the quality of the hotel. location-wise it took me a few minutes of walking around after exiting the metro station at valcarca to find the property as it is well hidden away. a word of advice-on leaving the metro take the exit marked carrer de gomis. a turn to the right after crossing a small road leads up a series of steps which will bring you on to the viaduct. the hotel is approx. 5mins walk, turn left in placa de mons. valcarca looks a good distance from the centre but most places in barcelona are easily accessable on foot. line 3 of the metro takes less than 15mins to get to placa catalunya. an excellent hotel in an excellent city

This is a really good solution for 1-3 days stay. There is a metro station in the near of the hotel (4-5 minutes walk), but I don't advise you to travel by bus, cause the traffic in Barcelona is horrible:) Really friendly staff and enough quality for this price.

Make sure you exit from the right entrance from the Metro or else it would take a while to walk there. Hotel is across a bridge, past a little rotary, and up the hill. Surrounding area is pretty quiet. A few shops about 5 minutes away. Park Guell is also very close though the main entrance (with the Gaudi works) is some good distance away. A decent place to stay for the location/price if you want your own clean room.

NB: anything rated 5 - was written for the purpose of completing survey. Anything rated 5 is actually not applicable to our survey. We did not actually get to stay at the Catalonia Rubens hotel. Our flight into Barcelona had been delayed by 3 hours and I could not get access to internet to contact the staff to advise. When we drove to the hotel, the address that was given (the email confirmation printed) was not specific. There are 2 streets with the same name and we were driving in and out of the city and up and down the same street asking anyone that would help us (approx 2 hours). We finally paid to follow a taxi to the hotel (in our car). When we arrived we were told that our rooms had been given away and that an alternate room was now available at CATALONIA Aragon (in Barcelona city). We specified that we needed to park our car somewhere. The clerk said that the hotel had parking. We drove again for another hour or so trying to make our way to Catalonia Aragon. When we arrive at about 2.30am the clerk told us that their parking was under repair and that we could park at a parking station 10 minutes away, which would cost 15 euro. We were both extremely fatigued and had experienced many hours of delays (flights, unspecified addresses), and the clerk was indifferent, extremely unhelpful and unsympathetic. We cancelled the room and left at around 3.30am.

Overall, a decent 3* hotel. The breakfast is probably the only thing one can get excited about (at 12 euros + VAT, it better be). Every other positive aspect is mediocre. It is placed relatively central, but the metro station is a good 10 minute walk up a steep hill. We stayed one night and we have had little sleep. Not only is the little street our room faced VERY noisy (despite double-glazed windows), but the hotel had a group of Italian teenagers, who were partying until early hours. We booked a 3* hotel and ended up sleeping in a youth hostel. We will not be staying in Catalonia Rubens again!

Hotel Catalonia Rubens is a hotel with a good price/quality relationship. The adress can be hard to find. It is Passeig De La Mare De Deu Del Coll 10. GPS: N 41°24’50” E 2°08’43”. 10 min. walk from metrostation Vallcara (L3 dir. Canyelles)

The hotel is currently under renovation. The price vs quality is ok, and it is located nearby a Metro Station, and near Park Guell.

Some troubles probably because the hotel is under reparation. Very nice employees and huge breakfast.
