Hotel Location and Facilities
Hotel Millenni is based just behind one of Barcelona's largest roads - Avenida Paral.lel. This is a main road that leads from the port to the centre of town at Plaça España. The hotel is situated about half way up the street and is thus approximately a ten-minute walk from both the port and Plaza de España. Plaza de España is the home of two important buildings - the Fira Barcelona and the Palace.
The Fira Barcelona is a large conference centre where some important Barcelona events such as Bread & Butter and the Harley Davidson conference take place.
The Palace is a large and impressive building dominating the square. It can be approached down a large tree-lined avenue and is flanked by sets of wide steps. It is also the site for the spectacular magic fountain show. For more details please see our Guide to the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc.

The MACBA Square |
The hotel is also based in the heart of the area of Raval. This area is part of Barcelona's old town. Although parts of El Raval have a reputation for being rough and ready, it is also fast becoming one of the most trendy areas in the old town. The area is full of small, independent bars, affordable local restaurants, design studios and art galleries. It is the home of the CCCB and the MACBA. These are two of Barcelona's museums of contemporary art and culture. They are housed within an interesting modern glass structure.
The hotel is within ten minutes walk of the Ramblas, where you will be at the centre of many of Barcelona's most popular tourist attractions.
Avenida Paral.lel should provide most necessary amenities such as internet cafés, banks, pharmacies and supermarkets.
