Hampton by Hilton Barcelona Fira Gran Via

The hotel is conveniently located opposite the exhibition center, but the value for money isn't great, and the service isn't good either. The air conditioning was broken all night, making for an uncomfortable stay. The room was tiny, and the foldable desk, once unfolded, blocked the entire pathway. I had a lot of luggage and didn't want to move, so I considered extending my stay, but the front desk quoted $150 a night, which was too expensive. Later, I found the Congress Hotel, just 300 meters from Hampton Inn and also opposite the exhibition center, for only $80. Wow, that hotel was spacious, very quiet, had a bathtub, and the decor was excellent. The lobby was expansive, offering charging stations for work, and they even stored luggage for outings. The front desk staff was very accommodating, and it was only 200 meters from the Fira metro station, right across from the exhibition hall. I'll definitely book the Congress Hotel next time. I don't really recommend Hampton Inn; it's not good value for money.

Very satisfied, great value for money. The hotel is new and very clean. Flexible check-in time, perfect for a short stay. It was fun to see Cola Cao at breakfast, truly Spanish! :D

The room was really big and spacious. The front desk staff spoke multiple languages, and there was a Chinese-speaking girl who could assist in Mandarin. It was also a nice touch that they provided slippers and a toothbrush with toothpaste, which you don't always find. Getting to the airport was convenient, though the buses weren't very punctual, so make sure to get to the bus stop early!

The room was smaller than last time, and it didn't come with a coffee maker or mugs. Previously, the welcome gift for members included a small bag of chocolates or cookies in addition to bottled water. This Christmas, when we asked about the member gift, we reluctantly received only two small bottles of water. The service isn't as warm as it used to be. Breakfast starts being cleared very early every day. If you go at 9 AM, it's very crowded, and many items like milk, coffee from the machine, and fruit are out of stock and not replenished promptly. It just doesn't feel as good as it once was.
