Rooms
The 38 rooms at the Adagio hotel are all plain and functional, with en-suite bathroom. The rooms have heating and air-conditioning, (although we have had several reports that the air-conditioning was not working properly for some of our site visitors, therefore check before you book if this is important for you), a telephone and a TV with satellite. The bathrooms have a hairdryer. Calle Ferran, on which the hotel is located is a very busy street, so if your sleep is easily disturbed then request the rooms at the back of the hotel.
Hotel Location and Facilities
The hotel is located in the Gothic Quarter, right in the centre of the city, 2 minutes from Las Ramblas. Calle Ferran is a bustling street day and night and is full of popular bars, Irish pubs, cafes and shops. The beautiful palm tree-lined Placa Reial is also just moments away and is a centre point of Barcelona nightlife. There is even a Starbucks just up from the hotel! You can find a bank and a pharmacy along the same road, just 2 blocks up. Calle Avinyo is one of Barcelona's best and most diverse shopping streets, and it leads off Calle Ferran. On Las Ramblas you will be able to find internet and newsagents. The nearest metro stop, Liceu, is also located on Las Ramblas.
