Hi Guys,
My Boyfriend and I are spending 5 nights in Barcelona in mid April and need some recomendations for budget hotels.
Any Suggestions greatfully recieved!!!
We have found a place called Hostal d'Uxelles, in Gran Via 688, Pral. Has anyone stayed here?? If so is it ok?
Thanks
Clare


sompong, I see you just joined yesterday and have already posted 28 similar messages to the one above. I have to admit that I'm nervous clicking links where someone says "I recommend XYZ. Just click this link". Then I hover over the link to see http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-2288280-10374285 . That's VERY VERY curious - and suspicious. Why not tell us WHAT you're recommending?

Sorry. I pushed "SEND REPLY" too soon.
Regarding Hostal D'uxelles, I haven't seen this place personally but did stay at another hostel one block to the "right", closer to the Plaza Tetuan, called Hostal Martina Bailen. This area, called Eixample, is a very nice, elegant neighborhood. You'll like it a lot, I'm sure. It's much more residential with a few hotels and hostels but not the concentration of tourists you find in the Gothic Quarter. It's also rather quiet even though it's on the grand boulevard of Gran Vía. Only thing is, it's a good walk to the Gothic Quarter. The neighborhood is VERY safe, too. LOTS of money in that area. Also, there's not much to do in this part of Eixample and not too many restaurants to be found. You'll want to walk to Passeig de Gracia, 4 blocks "left", or to the edge of the Gothic Quarter 4 blocks "down" for more selection. You can also plug in the address into http://www.qdq.com/indexfotos.asp</a> to take a look at the building's entrance.
Enjoy your visit to Barcelona!
