Hotel Bertrán - Barcelona

8.7

Great location and facility for family with children. Very close to metro station. Breakfast is served to the room.

9.1

My hotel room 208 was really big. 2 separate beds I had to put them close toghether. to get to the ramblas you gotta walk 5 min then take the metro at valcarca station and from there is 10 min train ride. really close to mount Tibidabo breakfast is served to you in your room if you chose that option for 10 euros a day for 2 people and they bring you rich basket of mini muffins and pastries...if you ask for extra you can have cereals ham and chese...but is not worth the cost of the add on.

8.9

The hotel room was clean but the room we had at the front of the hotel was very noisy at night. However there was no problem about changing it for a room a similar room at the back which proved to be very quiet. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Travel to the city centre was quick, cheap and easy via the Metro taking only about 15 minutes. I would strongly recommend this hotel and would stay there again.

8.5

This location is ideal for families or others seeking a quieter, less busy location to set up camp. There are several markets nearby where you can get supplies to use in the apartment's kitchen area. The closest Metro / train stop is about 5 minutes away, an easy walk, and the "Bus Turistic" has a stop at the same location. Also, Bertran is near the foot of the Tramvia Blau, the streetcar used to get to the funicular that accesses Tibidabo, the mountain-top amusement park. Parc Guell is about 20 minutes to the easy - a hilly but simple walk, with ample reward. The staff at Bertan were welcoming and helpful. The pool is very small but still refreshing, and the rooftop terrace where the pool is also serves as a great place to unwind, day or night. The breakfast, if you choose it, is enormous; we were never able to eat all of the baked goods that arrived each day. The beds seemed new or nearly new, and were firm and comfortable. The bathroom was large, but lacks places to hang towels.

9.9

Rooms are very clean and comfort is at the maximum level. It was a pleasant time spent in this hotel and the employees were very kind and helpful. Thank you for the wonderful moments spent in Barcelona in this peaceful and excellent hotel.

9.3

Excellent self-catering large room for the price of a normal hotel room. Kitchen and equipment very good. Remember to ask for 'matrimonial' bed if you want it made up as a proper double (with double sheets/duvet/doona). Nice balcony which we didn't have time to use in 3 days/nights of sightseeing. Easy short drive from airport on good roads avoiding the city. Location is fine for Metro trips to anywhere in the city, and has good local food/bread shops - although not a very attractive area. It was however quiet at night (no rowdy bars/clubs/street parties nearby). Staff were very friendly and helpful in suggestions for directions and sightseeing. Parking was at the hotel, for an extra charge (Euro 13 per day) as expected, and convenient - although we did not use the car during our stay - preferring to use the cheap and effective Metro (plus lots of walking) to everywhere. The rooftop pool looked nice and clean, and the entire hotel was well kept. A nice local walk (uphill via outdoor escalators!) to Gaudi's Park Guell was well worth the time an effort. We would certainly recommend this hotel particularly for anyone staying more than one or two nights.

8.6

Friendly staff.Good location.

8.2

we had a spacious family room with kitchen. perfect for a family. very good breakfast. metro station in the nearby.

8.6

Aside from the location not being downtown, this was a perfect getaway for the weekend. I loved the roof top pool.

9.3

Solo disponia de 3 dias para visitar Barcelona. Dado que viajo sola, no queria permanecer en un hotel centrico con mucho ruido nocturno, altos precios y probable poca seguridad. Si bien el hotel no se encuentra en pleno centro está solo a 400 mts de la estación del metro / tren y hay atracciones muy cerca (para los acostumbrados a caminar el Parc Güell está a 10 minutos, asi como el Tibidabo). Los alrededores son muy tranquilos y el personal del hotel esta bien capacitado para guiar al turista. El servicio es "muy bueno", las habitaciones limpias y espaciosas, y sobre todo durante las noches es bastante silencioso. Definitivamente volvería al Bertrand mi próximo viaje a Barcelona

9.3

Very comfortable hotel, near underground stops (Tibidabo or Vallcarca). Clean and spacious rooms; hope that your neighbours are not noisy (the first night there was a spanish party near us until 2 a.m.!). You can visit the fantastic Park Guell, that's just 15 minutes walking from the hotel.

9.3

Really enjoyed my stay there. Breakfast delivered to room. Staff spoke good English and were very helpful.

8.8

Muy buen hotel situado no muy lejos del centro de Barcelona en una zona elegante y con variedad de comercios en las cercanias. Esta situado a 10m del centro de la ciudad, utilizando el tren de cercanias siendo por la relación servicios/precio una excelente opción para un presupuesto ajustado.

8.3

In planning my trip I read many reviews on this site and was dismayed by the negative comments about many of the receptionists. Those at Hotel Bertran were exceptional. They answered my pre-trip emails promptly offering additional advice about finding the property and confirming the availability of twin and non-smoking rooms. When we arrived they were friendly, helpful, efficient and courteous, spoke excellent English and quickly settled us into our room. The included breakfast was ample with the option of extras if required. We received accurate advice about transport systems and although the hotel was not within walking distance of the main tourist attractions it was within easy reach of the cheap and efficient metro and tourist bus. The room was laid out to allow one person to sleep and another to use the lounge area without disturbing one another. I would recommend the property for anyone prefering a degree of independance rather than the pampering of a hotel with the additional benefits of a kitchenette and space.

We had a very good time there is nice because it's like a little apartment with kitchen, the tourist bus pass very near and you can found a lot of stores near. The people in the hotel is very nice and you can get to the center by taking the subway. The zone is good

9.9

We trusted reviews submitted by other readers when booking this room for our one night stay in Barcelona. We HIGHLY recommend Hotel Bertran. Not only did we have a kitchen, sitting area and dinette but we also had a private patio where we toasted our good fortune! One tip: when arriving from the airport on the bus, be certain you know exactly how and EXACTLY WHERE to make your connection to the Tibidabo metro station BEFORE you are burdened with luggage. Once we understood the system, traveling to and from the hotel was a cinch. Enjoy!

8.2

This property was everything we expected and more. When we arrived the manager offered us a more spacious apartment in the building next door at no additional charge. The entire staff was very friendly and accomodating. The location is 5 metro stops from Catalunya, the Vallcarca station about a 10 minute walk from the hotel. There is also a stop of the HOHO bus within a 10 minute walk. It is a quiet, safe neighborhood with pastry shops and food markets within 2 blocks. In-room wireless internet access is available for a reasonable charge. There was not a very good pot for making coffee. I would book with this property again if I return to Barcelona.

8.1

Me, my wife and 28year old son. Supermarket close by as well as metro. Good location with good shops nearby.

8.5

Perfect! We had some problem to pay by credit card but after all everything was solved!! I like so much the breakfast served at room!!

9.0

Hotel non centralissimo,ma ben collegato, 2 stazioni metro nelle vicinanze che ti portano in centro in 10 minuti. Ottimo servizio,camere grandi con angolo cottura e, salottino (almeno nelle quadruple) pulito, colazione abbondante in camera. Personale cordiale e disponibile. Insomma congliatissimo

8.8

Very nice hotel near the Metro-Station tibidabo (5 min walk). We took our breakfast not in the hotel, but in a café next to the metrostation tibidabo.

9.0

Very comfortable small hotel, good traffic connections - close to the metro and Renfe stations, spacious room with the equipment for preparation of simple meals, sunny terrace with small pool, kind people. We enjoyed our 6 days very much.

7.0

the hotel is ok we got a family room we were 4 adult male friends. however is so far from the city center about 5/6 km we got a rental car so any problem just to pay 16 euro for night for the box. it is impossible to park free in barcelona.

8.6

We were not in the "heart"f Barcelona, but could easily access that area bu the metro. The employees were veryt helpful. I woud recommend this place and stay there again.

9.1

The aparthotel is situated in very quiet position near Metro and 15 minutes walking park Guell in north of Barcelona. Not to many services or restaurant near it but really easy to arrive centre city. Room are spacious and whith very confortly kitchen. Services People's very friendly. I sure raccomanded to everyone.

8.8

Clean and quiet, competent employess - all of them spoke good english. Close to underground and to Park Guell (walking distance).

7.4

Good hotel, even if a bit difficult to find. The best option is to get to the metro station Catalunya first, and then take line 7 to Tibidabo. When you reach the street level, turn right, cross the street, walk straight ahead, turn right again at the Carrer de Lucá, and then right again at the Carrer de Bertrán. It's a five minute's walk. The only complaint I have is regarding the (lacking) quietness of the room. Very early on Saturday morning a group of girls (probably American teenagers) burst into the hotel, shouting and screaming without regard for other guests. The noise went on for quite a while - very easily right through the walls. Annoying indeed. Otherwise, the hotel is fine, and I would go there again. The distance from the city centre is not a big problem.

8.9

very good. easy to get to the city centre. nice place for the price

8.4

The hotel is good. Our expectations were totally satisfied: the room was large and clean. The position is not the best but the hotel is near (5 min by walk) the Tibidabo metro station and from this station you can reach the centre in 10 min. In the night, when the metro is closed, you will be able to take the N5 bus (from catalunya square)

8.8

I didn't have any real concept about how far out from the centre the hotel was located but in the end it wasn't an isssue as the trains/underground were frequent, reasonably priced and spotlessly clean. If you want something in the middle of the action don't use this hotel but as I had a limited budget this more than fit the bill. As a general comment I loved Barcelona - and am intending returning again this year with a friend.

9.6

i stayd in barcelona for 5 nights with two other mates at the hotel Bertran and it was great. the staff were competent and helpful with everything we needed. the location was was good easy walk to the metro not far from the city heart by train. i recommend this hotel to others and will stay here again when i return.

9.2

As usual with venere the nmaps and directions are hopeless, and you have to ask your way. The street is unimpressive, a back street, but quiet and convenient for shops and cafes, but no real restaurants nearby. The train to the centre is excellent, makes all the difference, and thye blue tram and funicular up the hill is a pleasant surprise. Well equipped appartment, very quiet on the back - the terraces are on tghe street side and not very interesting. Very discreet service and they know your name.

8.2

Stayed in a triple room, excellent size.

9.7

Second stay at this hotel, great price for a quad. Definitely recommend!

7.9

great hotel, will go back for sure !!

8.7

Great location if you don't want to have to walk out of the hotel and into a wall of traffic. Access to transport, excellent, and also to parks, eg Guell, but a bit sparse on locating dining options so plan and eat elsewhere before stretching your legs and walking back up the hill or catching train. The website is a little misleading in locating the Hotel on the map. Tibidabo is the local station, with others nearby. Front desk staff are very helpful, more so than the Tourist office personel.

7.9

Hôtel très bien placé, dans un quartier résidentiel et calme à 2 rues de la ligne 7 qui conduit directement à la place Catalunya. La formule apparthotel permet de diner calmement surtout qu'il y a des commerces à 2 pas et une boulangerie juste en bas. L'hôtel est très bien sauf que l'on entend les bruits de tuyauteries des voisins. Sinon rien à redire. Le personnel est très gentil et compétent,le garage est parfait pour laisser la voiture et ne plus s'en soucier même si 13€ par jour, c'est un peu cher. Très bon séjour en globalité.

7.8

Au lieu d'une chambre pour 4, nous avons eu un appartement avec 3 chambres et cuisine ! C'était super. Le métro a seulement quelques minutes (Avingudo Tibidado). Très bon petit déjeuner. Un peu de bruit dans la rue tout de même.

9.6

Ottimo hotel per famiglie con bambini. Camere molto spaziose, sono dei miniappartamenti. Dotati di angolo cottura completo, tuttavia manca la caffettiera. Suggerisco di portarsela da casa insieme ad un pacco di caffè italiano perchè quello locale non è buono come il nostro. A 100 metri c'è un supermercato e proprio sotto l'hotel c'è una panetteria (Molí Vell) dove è possibile acquistare il pane fresco (Domenica chiuso). Molto vicino alla stazione della metropolitana (ovvero, del FGC - Ferrocarrill de la Generalitat de Catalunya) che in 10 minuti ti porta a Plaça Catalunya cioè all'inizio delle Rambles. Nel complesso, ottima sistemazione. Ci tornerei senz'altro.

8.0

Rien à redire pour cet apparthôtel très bien tenu.Très copieux petit déjeuner. Un peu loin du centre, mais bien desservi par les transpoprts en commun.

Abbiamo soggiornato in due triple al 2° piano. Hotel molto pulito, silenzioso, camere spaziose ma dalle foto c'eravamo illusi che avremmo avuto una terrazza: fra noi c'erano dei fumatori ed è stato un grave problema. Mentre una delle camere aveva la finestrella del bagno sul cavedio, la seconda era priva di aspiratore e di finestra. Nella prima camera i letti erano da una piazza e 1/2 mentre il terzo letto, in entrambe le camere, era una brandina pieghevole con materasso molto scomodo. Ottimo il vicinissimo bar/pasticceria della catena Farga in cui fare colazione!Comunque non tornerei in questo hotel perchè nei dintorni siamo riusciti a trovare un unico ristorantino medio/basso in cui cenare prima di rientrare e se si ha voglia di fare un'ultima passeggiata dopo cena senza tornare in centro, i dintorni non offrono assolutamente niente.

8.9

expected 2 rooms as an appartment like indicated om the web site; it was a very large room divided by a cupboard. the rest was ok and breakfast was for twicw as many people as we were. We were travelling with the kids(2).

8.6

We enjoyed staying in Bertrán. Staff is very welcoming. We would recommend to stay here. Thank you for your service.

8.1

Emplacement calme et bien desservi: métro à 10 mn à pied et station train-métro à 5 mn, le tout à 10 mn du centre. supérette à proximité. chambre ou plutôt studio très confortable. Tout ça malheureusement gâché par les bruits d'écoulement d'eau des chambres voisines (douche, chasse d'eau), plus aussi le sans gène de certains (nes): marche avec talons à 1h du matin, conversations etc.

5.1

Large appartment-room with kitchen corner, everything fine, but my room (1st floor, street side) was unexpectedly very noisy. The small Calle Bertrán is in fact a kind of shortcut through road, where cars and motorcycles rush up the slope in low gear. ==> Be sure to ask for a back-side room.

9.1

Three of us (parents and 17-year-old son)stayed in two rooms. Our overall impression of the hotel was that it was excellent for our needs, and we would be very happy to recommend it to friends. Given Barcelona's excellent public transport, the location, a bit away from the Centre, was no disadvantage and, for us, had some advantages. The size of the rooms is generous. All the staff were very pleasant. Breakfast was very adequate and punctual. The high score we have given for quietness refers to the 4th floor room. The 2nd floor room was, I understand, quite a bit noisier with considerable sound levels penetrating from neighbouring rooms and footsteps from the floor above.

6.7

The room was overall pretty clean. The bathroom was a bit old but was clean. The refridgerator and stove were convenient for us. We were overlooking the street which meant it was very loud. It was difficult for my wife to sleep but I slept fine. They bring breakfast to your room which was nice - pastries, bread, and beverage. They do have a computer for internet access for a fee. It is far from the main tourist area but the subway is about 7 minutes walk and the ride to the main part of town is not too long. The location seemed safe. The latest we were out was midnight and I did not see anything concerning.

8.5

Hotel was very nice for the price. The hotel staff was excellent and provided detail directions for places to see and eat. The area around the hotel is not the best for finding good eating establishments, but the metro is very close. The rooms are on the small size compared to USA standards, but adequate. The breakfast was on time and very filling. I recommend this hotel to anyone that doesn't mind being a little out of downtown.

Exellent hotel, and very friendly staff. The area is not far a way from the city centre, very nice clean hotel. I will definately come back to the same hotel if I decided again to visit Barcelona.
