This is an wonderful hotel. It is located right next to a Metro station which takes one directly to the midtown area in minutes. It is clean and well staffed. The food is very good at breakfast as well as in the restaurant. We will always stay here when in Barcelona.

A great place to stay if driving. It is close to the ring road yet extremely close to Metro and a 12 minute ride to downtown. The only surprise was that in this modern, relatively new hotel facility, they were unable in their system to accept a phone card! Perhaps this is intentional to require that their phone system with charges is used. Nevertheless, we very much recommend this hotel.

I travelled with my sister and we stayed four days at the hotel Alimara. Everything was perfect except the temperature in the room-it was too hot-there was an airconditioner but the empolyes told me in april only works the heating.It´s too loud to open the window during the night but if it´s closed it´s quiet and you can sleep well. The best thing about the hotel (beside the quality): you reach the underground station in one minute(walking)and with the green line you get to every important place. I would definitly stay there again.

The breakfast was offered at a higher (and unacceptable) price (13 €) than was indicated on the web site.

Staff on check in too busy talking to themselves to really bother with a customer! Got passports passed between three or four staff and not one actually spoke to us or welcomed us. Staff on duty later in our stay very helpful with recommendations for restuarants and sights. On balance a good place to stay close to metro, as described but a little impersonal.

Very good, the hotel is very beautiful, the position is in a quiet place, but 15 minutes in metro from the center

The Hotel was very pleasant and although it is quite far away from the city centre, (about 30 Euros in a taxi from the airport) there is a metro station literally around the corner which makes getting to and from the city centre highly convenient. There isn't much at all in the surrounding area, in the way of shops/restaurants. Also, avoid paying the extra for breakfast (approx £12), we simply jumped on the metro in the morning and had a lovely (far cheaper) breakfast in the city in one of the numerous cafes. Also, handy hint, get the aerobus from the airport into the city drop point (Placa Catalunya I think), about 3 Euros. Then get the metro to Mundet (just around the corner from the hotel). Its about 10 min on the metro.

Hotel was lovely, train station only a minutes' walk away, quite easy to find on maps. Only bad thing to report, bit of a language barrier when asking for in house services eg: room service and reception. Would stay again.

Nous l'avons choisi sur le net et nous n'avons pas été déçus. C'est vrai qu'il est loin du centre mais le métro est à deux pas et en 15 mn on est sur le port. Les chambres sont superbes, il y a un garage pour les voitures et la vue du neuvième étage embrasse une bonne partie de la ville. On y retournera.

I travelled to Barcelona with my boyfriend for a couple of days of relaxation and sightseeing. Alimara had been advertised as a convenient location for seeing the city, and with easy access to the Metro we found getting around very simple and unstressful. The staff at the hotel were very welcoming and the room was fine with a lovely bathroom. My only complaint would be the noise from the ring road was extremely loud and intrusive making it less than peaceful.

away from main strip, but the train is just a few steps away (end of the hotel block) and a quick train ride away. Not much around the hotel other then olmypic facilities, but still you're only a quick train away from the action. Hotel was huge compared to the small Italian hotels. bathroom was good as well.

we had looked at hostels and a few hotels, after comparing prices it was cheaper to stay at this hotel!

The hotel is good, staff is nice. The only problem is that the hotel is far from the center of Barcelona, but there is a metro line that stops just in front of the hotel. The surroundings of the hotel are quiet, but so quiet that there are not any restaurants! The hotel is ok, no problem with it.

The best in price/quality relation. Breakfast's a bit too expensive but employees informed us about. Room settled & cleaned also in the afternoon. No extra charge for booking taxis.

Wir fanden ein modernes, günstiges Hotel in direkter Nähe zur Metro Mundet vor. Trotz Autobahnnähe war es bei geschlossenem Fenster sehr ruhig. Publikum, Räumlichkeit, Umgebung sehr angenehm, gutes Frühstück (kostet zusätzlich 12,30€). Distanz zum Zentrum 15 Metro-Min. Das Alimara ist sehr zu emfehlen und Barcelona ist eine phantastische Stadt, hat uns sehr gefallen...

Gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis Lage direkt an der Metro und and der Autobahn Nicht ganz so ruhig aber nichts dramatisches Sowohl für Buisiness als auch für Tourismus bestens geeignet Frühstück muss extra bezahlt werden mit € 11,50

The hotel met our expectations and the room exceeded them! Very clean, trendy looking rooms. The staff was helpful and friendly, we wanted a non-smoking room and got one the next day when one was available. We didnt have breakfast at the hotel as we thought it was too expensive and the location is not perfect either because it is next to the motorway, but with the windows closed (there is aircon.) it is fine. The journey into the city centre was fine too (10-15mins), we didnt mind taking the metro at all. Its fast and easy to use. Overall a great hotel and even though it was still being renovated, it was a primo hotel to enjoy a long weekend in Barcelona!

The Hotel Alimara is a wonderful place to stay. It's away from the city center which makes it a very quiet place to rest after a day of sightseeing. The rooms are very spacious and very clean. It is located very close to the metro station which makes it very convenient when going to the city center. The only thing we thought bad about the hotel was not informing us that the breakfast wasn't included with the room. When we received the bill, we were charged 11 Euros each for the breakfast buffet. We felt like we should've been better informed about breakfast during check-in. There was also a card providing details about breakfast but there wasn't a price associated with it.
