How To Choose The Right 5 Star Hotel In Barcelona

Page Content

We have hand picked the 5 star hotels listed on this page because they offer excellent access to the city centre and the main attractions. All of these hotels have a nearby metro (with the exception of the Gran La Florida). A metro stop near to your hotel is a big plus since it offers you convenient and ready access to the rest of the city.

Although the Gran La Florida is less accessible than the other 5 star hotels on this page we could not leave it out from our selection. The Gran La Florida is such an outstanding and luxurious hotel. In addition it offers absolutely stunning views of the city. If you're happy to take a taxi from the hotel then you'll be in the heart of the city centre in under 15 minutes.

On our review pages you'll find photos of each hotel along with descriptions of the neighbourhood and location surrounding the hotels. We've also included a list of sights of interest near the hotels. To help you see exactly what the area is like around the hotel we've linked the relevant sections of our photo galleries.
