Senator Barcelona

Everything was there that you would expect from a 4 star hotel with the added bonus that it is situated in a quiet area making for peaceful nights rest. It is not centrally located but the bus and metro service in Barcelona is relatively cheap and extensive. The nearest metro station is only about 8 minutes walk away with a bus stop being right outside the hotel itself. The Hotel uses an electronic card both as a room key AND as a token that must be inserted into the receptacle provided for activating the rooms electrical devices (it must be kept inserted otherwise the electricity will cut out after about a minute). I arrived for my first night just after midnight and had not used this system before - the staff person @ reception did not explain this to me either so some improvement in communications needed there.

The place was cheaply built and very cheesy. Many things were in poor repair or worn out. Instead of a queen bed we got two double beds, not great for a romantic weekend.

It was only a good value because the room was on sale for half price.

The spa was very expensive and the services they offered were not good.

Good hotel which is very near the FC Barcelona football stadium. Have stayed at this hotel twice this year. Staff are very helpful. Whilst the hotel is not centrally situated there is an underground train station very near which gets you into town with relative ease. Mind you when using the underground which is of a modern high standard watch out for pickpockets which converge in the station at target tourists. I myself have been targetted but was fortunate to prevent becoming another victim.

The Spa in the hotel is of a good standard and worth a visit for 15 euros. You don't get pestered by staff offering you treatments.

It´s good value for money.
Location was great, just 5 minutes from the Camp Nou and from the tube station.
Service is also good, very kind receptionist and free drinks every day.
The bathroom was disappointing as it was a bit old.
