Hotel Nuevo Triunfo

The hotel is located in a dark side street and it provides good soundproofing from the busy street. Relatively close to the metro and a couple of small shops where you can buy what you need. Staff helpfulness level 2/10, because probably the only thing the staff is interested in is non-stop smoking. On the other hand, I can praise the excellent English language. Room was very small. Price too high.

As in other countries, hotel rates in urban areas are significantly higher compared to those in rural areas, and Barcelona was no exception. While the price would have afforded a very nice room in the countryside, it was a typical business hotel. The location was within walking distance of Montjuïc Hill and La Rambla, with the nearest station, Paral-lel, about a 5-minute walk away. There were also many restaurants nearby, making it convenient. The room was clean but somewhat small, and the walls were thin, so noise was a concern. The staff were kind and stored our luggage after check-out. 他の国と同様に、地方に比べて都市部のホテルの料金はだいぶ高止まりしている印象で、バルセロナも同様でした。 地方だとかなり上等な部屋に泊まれる値段でしたが、一般的なビジネスホテルという形態です。 場所はモンジュイックの丘にも徒歩で行ける距離ですし、ランプラス通りから歩ける距離でした、最寄駅はPalal-lelで徒歩5分程度、近くにレストランも多く便利でした。 部屋は清潔でしたが多少狭く、壁も薄かったため騒音も気になりました。 スタッフは親切で、チェックアウト後に荷物も預かってくれました。

Simple, modern, two-star hotel in a residential area well connected to the main tourist attractions. Tiny, spotless rooms with all basic amenities, good continental breakfast (served in a tiny breakfast room), welcoming and friendly staff. Not trendy, not fancy, not instagrammable, but ideal to visit the city without spending a fortune.

Air con didn’t work properly so it was very hot. Spoke to reception as I asked for a tan. He said he’d phone my room at 11pm. 11.17pm and still nothing so just tried to sleep. Heard everyone else on the floor going in and out of their rooms. Furniture being dragged till around 3am. An alarm went off for several minutes at around 1.30am. After a couple of hours kip, got up and wondered round Barcelona. Not a very nice spot but close to the centre. Will not stay again.
