 Roma Reial Hotel, Placa Reial,
Barcelona by 5leopard5
The staff are very friendly, welcoming and speak good English. The hotel is perhaps best suited to younger couples and night owls, although it does provide a nice central vantage point to see all of the city's sites.
The rooms are clean, and feature individual w/c and shower room. Continental breakfast offered, or choose from the many outlets nearby.
Step onto the balcony and hear traditional Spanish music. Along with a wonderful view of the Square, incorporating Gaudi-designed landposts and palm trees, the location makes the experience complete.
La Ramblas is a three minute walk away.
There is a Madame-Tussaudes-esque waxwork museum five minutes away.
There is a thriving nightlife to be discovered.
There are also nearby links to the metro stations at Liceu and Drassanes.
GOING FOR THE CHEAP AND CHEERFUL OPTION DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU HAVE TO COMPROMISE ON THE ENJOYMENT OF YOUR HOLIDAY!

Stayed in this hotel for three nights in June 2003 and the staff win hands down the first prize for grumpiness and unfriendliness.
We had a small top floor room with a view of a roof top building site, with no fan in our room it was unbearable, it was hotter than the 38C outside. With verry little sleep for three nights a romantic trip in a fantastic city could have been ruined was it not for knowing we were heading for the coast after our stay in the 'Bangkok Hilton'.
This hotel location is fantastic, I dare say a room with a view over the plaza with a big strong cooling fan in your room would make this a top place to stay. Sadly, you will unlikely get this, and when you ask the grumpy staff for such a request, good luck, because you'll be lucky if they even bother to look up from their seat in the very cool air conditioned reception they sit in. So why the long faces guys, cheer up you could actually be a guest in this hotel?

We have been to Barcelona for 5 days with our school class. It have been a good trip, with a lot of good sightseeing .. but enough about that :P.
The hotel Roma Reial Hotel, is a fine hotel that I can recommend, for everyone in every age. The location of the hotel is extremely good, just 1 min to a metro station and less to the Rambla! It is also easy to go to the beach which is approximately 20 minutes of walk from the hotel. If you take the metro, you can reach a station much closer to the beach, but walking in the city is an experience to I’d recommend that ;)
The hotel rooms are good looking with large bathrooms with sink, bathtub and a bedet. If the rooms are left not to messy when left in the day, the sheets will be changed and the floor will be cleaned. Some of the rooms had an air-condition with is great, but other rooms (like the one my group had) only had a fan with was better than nothing, but not optimal compared to the high day temperature. There is also a television, but it is small and the controller was missing, so no television for us (All the channels were in Spanish.)
The service at the hotel is fine, with a lobby opened 24/7, so late night trips were no problem. The hotel has a strict ONE STRIKE AND YOU ARE OUT policy, which makes sure that it is quiet at the night, but they are fair, so it is possible to have fun, and be a little noisy in the night ;)
Now to the ugly part:( remember that the hotel is a one-star hotel so here comes why! The breakfast in the morning SUX! Some of us got stomachache because of the lousy food! There is some bread and the only things you can put in top are butter and different kind of jelly, nothing else! There are some yoghurt with different flavors, but they are all tasting like something that has never seen a fruit!
The conclusion of the stay at the hotel it that it’s pretty fine compared to the price! Try the breakfast put, and if you don’t like it, just go out and buy some in a random ally ;)
Good trip and enjoy the stay! :)
