This is the most central hotel we've got, located right on the city's grand statue- and fountain-covered main square: Plaça Catalunya.
Upon arrival at the H10, guests are greeted with a bubbly glass of Catalan Cava and some fruits and nuts. (For the record, a glass of bubbly greets newly arrived guests at all H10 hotels.) Refreshing! Rooms at the H10 are comfortable and contemporary, with all the necessary amenities and then some. Half the rooms have great views from French balconies of the busy Plaça below.
The H10 Catalunya Plaza is right in the middle of it all. To combat the noise and commotion factor, all H10 rooms have soundproofed windows. Room decoration is simple with basic beds and furniture. However, there are some nice touches in the rooms, such as tea and coffee makers, minibars, Wi-Fi access, and cable televisions.
Because the H10 is a chain, it's more reliable than creative. This hotel does not have the charm of family-run spots, though what it lacks in uniqueness it makes up for in dependable services.
This is a great hotel for business travelers or anyone who wants a no-fuss hotel experience. There are meeting rooms on site as well as a buffet breakfast (€7.50) and nearby parking (€17). The airport bus is right in front of the hotel, leaving and arriving from Plaça Catalunya. The Metro and taxi line are also located a few meters from the hotel's entrance. There's a café and tapas place right next door, where you can sit outside under a sun umbrella and take in the hustle and bustle of Barcelona's busy beat.
