Vincci Arena Hotel Barcelona

My guest and I stayed at Vincci Arena during our vacation in Barcelona. The hotel staff worked to accommodate us and provide us with a room that suited our needs, and were also helpful with printing out a voucher for the Barcelona Card. The location is perfect for tourists since it's about 5 minutes casual walk to the main metro lines at the Espanya station as well as the dozens of bus lines that stop along the circle. It's 4 blocks away from the first stop from and the last stop to the airport on the Aerobus, so for 5.30 EUR per person for a 15 minute express trip, it works out really well. It's also 5 minutes away from the main mall in Espanya, so there's always somewhere to go if you have a craving for ice cream, sandwiches, or shopping. It was so convenient heading out for sightseeing during the day at places like Sagrada Familia, Las Ramblas, and the Olympic Park, and then stopping back for a break or nap at the hotel before heading out again. The location is also far enough from the busy activity of the main Espanya area to provide a quiet neighborhood and setting to relax and sleep in. One thing that the hotel could improve on would be to provide ice machines in the hallways since they only have mini-bars in the rooms that are designed to only keep the drinks provided by the hotel cool. The hallways are also quite warm due to the special lighting that they have; if they switched to cooler LED lighting, I'm sure they will resolve this minor inconvenience and perhaps save electricity usage in the process. However, their air conditioning was very good, and my guest and I were kept sufficiently cool as needed, so this was not an issue inside the room. Overall, I had a great experience staying at Vincci Arena, and I would definitely recommend this hotel for any tourists or business travelers looking for a convenient location that is comfortable and well situated.

Great location. Near numerous shops, restaurants, coffee bars, etc. Convienent access to public transportation especially the Metro subway which is easy to use and takes you anywhere in the City. Hotel was nice, comfortable and clean.

Nice hotel, with nice, clean and fancy rooms. Expensive Internet. Ok location but some kilometres to La Rambla, the main street. Would stay again.

I would highly recommend this hotel. The rooms were lovely, location excellent and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. It was about a 10/15 minute walk from the centre of town but close to the harbour and lots of other attractions. It's other big benefit was that it was in a quiet area. Highly recommended.

1) location is ok - close to metro station. 2) have to take metro to catalunya, since not much things to see at espanya. 3) wifi is not free. 4) have to pay extra 9 euro each for breakfast.

Very new and trendy hotel. Just don't understand why their halls are so warm. They have 80plus rooms so it does not feel like a huge and impersonal hotel. Near the Plaza Espana which is 4 metro stations from Plaza Catalunya or the main tourist area. I was comfortable and happy with my stay.

modern, nice and clean, only minor problems.

Great Hotel!!! But the beds are extremely hard, which really sucks for how nice the hotel is. In more of residental neighborhhood. Short walk from Airport Auero Bus first stop in Barcelona.

Our stay at this hotel was really great. The hotel is very clean and the staff were very helpful (Ana and Josep) and also spoke english..they also provided us with maps and visiting hours for the museums etc during our stay. The breakfast selection is huge and the food was great also. rooms are very tidy and clean and also very cosy and comfortable. would definetely stay at this hotel once again since it's very close to the metro were you could get the train and go wherever you want. So it was definetely a good choice we made. It's hotel website shows pictures of the hotel which look exactly like it does in real life.

Absolutely new and well situated.
