No title - expert review
There's something clubby about this elegant Barcelona standby, a surprising charm and intimacy for such a sizable operation. The location is ideal - directly across the plaza from the cathedral, overlooking weekend sardana dancing, Thursday antiques markets, and, of course, the floodlit cathedral by...

Best rooms are the ones in the front. They overlook the plaza, have morning sun, and are more spacious than the rooms at the back of the hotel. Overall we were very pleased with our stay. Staff was curtious and available to answer questions, give directions, etc. Traveler's tip on local attractions....

While I have stayed in many nicer hotels, this one is best for its location in downtown Barcelona. The employees are very competent, multi lingual, and always willing to do anything for the patrons. The rooms are smallish, which is expected. The rugs were rather worn. Otherwise a perfect location to...

Fabulous location - user review
Had been to Barcelona before an stayed by La Ramblas. Absolutely loved this location. In a quaint square where you are centrally located by all. The hotel was charming. The rooms needed to be redone. Not a 4 star rating. The staff was less than accomodating. I was told to call the airport on my own....

Hotel Colon shares a court yard wtih the Cathedral one of the must see sights and is about a 2 minute (or less) walk to Las Ramblas.

Cathedral view? - it´s covered in scaffolding! - user review
Rooms advertised with 'Cathedral View' command a hefty price premium but, when we arrrived (Mar '06), we found the cathedral is virtually totally covered by draped scaffolding, with only the spire actually visible. It is disingenuous of the hotel to charge extra for a view which in fact is obscured,...

Scaffolding, anyone? - user review
The Hotel Colon is in the perfect location, in the middle of the Gothic Quarter. It is an easy walk to numerous restaurants, attractions, and the main shopping district. We splurged for a view of the cathedral. Unfortunately, the cathedral is covered from head to toe in scaffolding (as of September ...

This hotel is nearly impossible to find on your own. Take a taxi! The reward is worth the search. The rooms are only good, but the outstanding service and exceptional breakfast buffet more than make up for any lack of luxu...

Colon needs a colonic - user review
Well, let's see...the first room they placed me in had paint falling from the ceiling due to a water leak. I awoke in the next room to the sound of banging and drilling due to construction of a new hotel next door (right next door). I was finally dragged to a third room but NO ONE (front desk staff)...
