The location of the Catalonia hotel Barcelona Plaza is very good,
just out of the centre of town but very well connected to the centre
and all the sight-seeing spots. The Placa Espanya metro stop is
on the doorstep of the hotel and will take you to La Rambla in less
than 10 minutes. Closer to home you have Palau Nacional in front
of which are the Magic Fountain which is a must-see spectacle. Just
to the side of the fountain, a 10 minute walk away there is the
Mies Van de Rohe Pavilion which is interesting for those who like
architecture, and a bit further up there is Poble Espanyol. This
was built in 1929 and is a small village with styles of architecture
to represent all the different parts of Spain. Under the hotel there
is a cash point which is accessible from inside the hotel and out.
On the other side there is a travel agency. If you go up either
of the roads on the side of the hotel you will find newsagents and
restaurants. Sants station is also a 15 minute walk away, and from
there, there are direct trains to the airport or out of town places
like Sitges.
