Hotel Estense

I was there with my family. Best buffet breakfast, a lot of food to choose from. Love theirs pistachio croissants. They have bikes, yes a room full of bikes you can use for free with kids seats plus a playground for kids. Was a good thing for us as we come with our 2 kids. Also there is cold water/ sparkling water dispenser at hotel entry you can use any time for free with their gift bottle and they have nice car parking.

I went with my boyfriend last week 4 days to Barcellona. We stayed at the Hotel Lugano (Av. del Paral·lel, 172, 08015 Barcelona, Spain). The hotel is very nice and clean, and in a good position: in front of it there is a bus stop and the shop to buy the tickets. From there you can go everywhere easily, and you can join the first stop of the subway in a short time. In any case you can take a taxi easily considering that the costs are not so high. The hotel is just 20 minutes walking far away from the Palau Guell. In the zone there a lot of bars/pubs, etc. And in 5 minutes walking there is Plaça d'Espanya where you can find the ex Arena (Las Arenas de Barcelona) where there are cinemas, shops and a lot of restaurant (we tried LaLola and we were quite satisfied about price and food). Just out of the hotel you can find also an hairdresser and a Pizzeria Italiana MAMA where you can eat a very good Italian pizza. But at last what it makes the difference in Lugano Hotel is the cleaning, big rooms, silence even if you are on the street (our room was the n°511), the position and mainly the kindness of the reception. All the people of the reception are helpful and they try to satisfy every curiosity /needs you have. They help you to enjoy more your stay in Barcellona with their useful information. Luis gave us a lot of information and his colleagues too. It was a big pleasure to speak with them. Thanks to all : Luis, Jem, Alex, Miquel, Tsering, David, Marta !!! You are all GREAT!!! We do hope to meet you again in Hotel Lugano or in Italy! Antonella Di Parigi and Maurizio Morandi
