Review Expo Hotel Barcelona

Reservation Information For The Hotel Expo Barcelona

There is a conundrum with this Expo hotel Barcelona. To me it appeared that this hotel is a bit past its prime, the façade is a little shabby and the interior which was once so modern now pales in comparison to some of the newer hotels in town. However there must be some reason, when I visited, the lobby was completely packed full of tourists. Obviously this hotel is still classed as good value, comfortable and functional accommodation.

Hotel Facilities

The Expo hotel Barcelona is a large hotel and has good facilities. These include a laundry service, a day care nursery on request, a car park some 50 metres from the hotel. A foreign currency exchange and a fax service. The hotel also has a swimming pool and roof terrace which is open during the summer. If you would like to hire a car or book a tour the hotel will be happy to help.
