Hotel H10 Itaca - Barcelona

8.8

Good hotel, quiet area, close of Plaza Espanya and Montjuic.

8.3

All the staff we met were very helpful and friendly to Chinese people. It was a very good impresion for us.

9.6

The room was excellent: modern, nice and very clean. Very difficult to find such an excellent relationship price/quality. Sure one of the best hotel I have ever seen.

6.5

The staff were very friendly. The plumbing was poor: the controls for the shower and the bath didn't work: the water came out of both tap and shower, wasting water. The cost of the hotel breakfast was high, but there are some nice cafes doing bocadillos and coffee in side streets nearby (near the park). Travelling with my wife and daughter - with an extra bed in the room - meant it was a bit of a tight squeeze in the bedroom.

9.1

Nice rooms, kind employees, hotel close to the main railway station and to underground stops.

8.7

good location and place to stay. Metro station is very close, place is clean and good room service. Wi-Fi connection available in all rooms (for your iphone or netbook) plus 2 pc downstairs available to surf internet for free.

9.0

A very good option for us. The hotel is cheap comparing to other hotels and the location is very close to public transport : bus ,metro and train station and supermarkets. We will go there again next time.

8.9

The hotel is really nice and very close to public transport metro and train station "Estacio de Nord", the workers are very kind and open to help customers in any needs and requests. The relation price and quality is very good, the only negative thing is that the price doesn't include breakfast that costs 15 €.

9.2

The quality of the services H10 Itaca offered to us was great. Employees were always available to solve all our information requeriments and the room was very clean and comfortable. For sure if we will come back to Barcelona for vacations we will choose this hotel.

7.1

Good cleanliness,nice bath,all basic facilities but the room was too small even for one person. Convenient location(next to metro station). Surroundings are not very good. Best fitts to businessmen rather tourists. Good quality/price ratio.

8.6

very beautiful,modern and comfortable hotel!the employers are all very nice, competent and kind,if you need any type of information they will give it to you without any problem.the room are quite small,but with all you will need and all is every day clean.the hotel is near the station of metro and train so you can easy reach what part of the city (or the aeroport) with a small budget without use of the taxi. if you want you can reach the Rambla walking, it takes half an hour but the surrounding are not dangerous and full of little low cost bar, restaurants and shops. we are very satisfied with this hotel!

6.7

The rooms were very small for three persons and the hotel was very noisy. This hotel doesn´t correspond to an hotel of 4 stars.

9.7

the hotel is so nice and cheap comparing to other hotels and the location of the hotel is very nice. it's just next to the main station and from there you can go wherever you want in Bercelone or all Spain.

8.8

Rooms are vere clean and with lots of natural light and very good size to be comfortable. Close to the main train station in Barcelona, very good facilities for a quiet stay.

9.1

The position of the hotel is very good, near from Barcelona Saint trein station that if great to go every way in Barcelona. the breadfast is very good and the relation quality price are well.

7.5

The location is great and close to the main train station. If you walk out the front of train station cross the taxi pick up area and walk all the way to the end of a huge concrete area w/a covered area on left you will see 4 palm trees in front of you. Look down the right 2 blocks and you will see the hotel. There is a grocery store right next door. Use it if you drink soft drinks/water otherwise you will pay 2 to 3 euros each on the street. The hotel has 2 computers with free internet. AC worked first night but not second. We walked to the fountain/light show @ the contemporary art museum 2 nights and it was great! Also, if you don't see prices quoted in resteraunts & for cabs ask twice before eating or getting in the cab. Barcelona was beautiful but I felt screwed several times in these areas and I am a pretty savy traveler.

9.3

L'hotel è veramente carino. Noi ci siamo trovati molto bene anche perchè è molto vicino alla metro.Il personale è sempre disponibile per ogni esigenza. le camere sono molto pulite.

8.3

Good hotel. The surrounding of the hotel is not great, but it compensates with its vicinity to public transports. The hotel is near the main train station from where you can get the tube to the city centre (La Ramblas and so on). The trip is about 10 minutes. Walking, you will need 30 or 40 minutes. Our room was clean and spotless. Good services in general. Good price/quality ratio.

8.9

We had a wonderful time and were treated graciously by the staff

8.8

I reserved this room for my parents. they staied in barcelona for 4 nights

8.2

Nice hotel, close to Stans train station (10 min) as well as to Touristic bus and metro station (5 min). Only comment was the noise coming from the street, better ask for a room on the other side. Breakfast expensive (14 Euros). Otherwise, we would go again. Staff is competent.

8.3

Okay to discover Barcelona with taxi and open bus from here.

8.0

è un bellissimo hotel...è collegato benissimo tramite la metro!!!

9.2

was very impressed with the h10 itaca hotel.rooms were lovely clean and modern,the hotel is 5mins walk from metro and within minutes you can be anywhere in the city.would definitely recommend this hotel.

9.6

This was a lovely hotel within 5 minute walk to the central train station it was a safe area and not at all noisy. It is definately worth taking breakfast in the hotel as it was excellent, lots of choice from fresh fruit, cooked breakfast pastries etc. Very clean and you got a glass of Cava when you arrive, nice touch!

8.9

Very nice hotel. It was a little bit outside of the main parts of the city, but it was close to the metro, so it wasn't too bad.

7.7

We stayed two nights sharing a twin bedded room.We were offered 1/2 price breakfast on arrival - which was very good value.Unfortunately our first night was spoiled as neither the aircon nor our TV worked.Next day I complained and we were moved to another room which was AOK and I blagged a free breakfast .Hotel location meant metro journeys to get to any sights but metro and rail stations are near . the metro is cheap if you buy an H10 ticket.

1.3

horrible

8.8

I stayed first at Hotel H10 Itaca. The room I had was just a little too small but very clean and comfortable. Bathroom was excellent. One of the reasons I spent great four days in Barcelona was The Hotel.

9.4

We were surprised how nice this hotel was. It was much nicer than most hotels in Europe and corresponded with a decent hotel in North America. It is very close to the subway and only a 5 minute subway from Plaza Catalunya. I think I prefered the location to being right in the main tourist area. I would stay here again and can easily recommend it.

9.5

Very nice hotel, it's modern, employees are kind and helpful and when you arrive they open a bottle of wine to welcome you. The hotel is not in the centre, but the surroundings are not bad, and is to use the subway. Very, very good place!

7.0

TV-set not working!

8.4

The Staff was extremely helpful and hospitable. The facilities they offer were excellent. The location was a great distance from the center of activities in Barcelona.

9.9

Un hôtel facile à trouver. Accueil avec coupe de "Cava" (champagne). Hôtel très bien, proche métro. Je vous le conseille. A préciser : parking sous l'hôtel, mais payant en plus de la réservation. Point très positif : buffet du matin pas cher (7€) et très copieux. Ce fut donc un excellent séjour.

8.0

Al llegar al hotel me comunicaron que Venere no les había pasado la confirmación de la reserva. Efectuadas consultas se resolvió de inmediato el problema en la propia recepción del hotel.

8.4

struttura moderna ed accogliente, qualche riserva sulla zona ove e' ubicato l'albergo e sulla prima colazione molto varia, ma piu' pensata per una utenza internazionale che non italiana. Personale gentile e che conosce l'inglese.

8.5

praticamente una base perfetta in termini di rapporto qualità/prezzo per visitare barcellona. Si trova praticamente attaccato alla stazione e quindi gli spostamenti coi mezzi pubblici sono comodissimi. unico neo: il quartiere dove si trova non è il massimo per "movida" quindi ci vogliono i mezzi pubblici per spostarsi anche la sera/notte.

9.4

L'hotel si trova in un bel quartiere nuovo di Barcellona a 8 minuti di metrò dalla Rambla. E' un quattro stelle pienamente corrispondente ai canoni italiani ad un prezzo davvero competitivo. Le stanze sono spaziose, moderne e sempre pulitissime. Ottimi i servizi e la professionalità del personale sempre molto cordiale. Si può parcheggiare la macchina in un parcheggio privato e coperto al costo di € 13 al giorno. Il miglior hotel in cui sia stata per rapporto qualità prezzo, lo consiglio caldamente.

8.8

Despite quite busy surroundings, hotel gave us calm relief at any part of a day, but try to book a room with window heading backyard - Av. de Roma seems to be less busy at night, but can be noisy anyway. Room cleanliness with no objections, staff very friendly. If you don't mind living little outside the centre it should be an almost perfect match. Metro station Sants Estacio is approx. 5 min. walk from the hotel, where Line 3 leads you directly to La Rambla and Catalunya Square within 10 minutes. Very good overall impression.

8.2

A minha reserva, apesar de confirmada pelo vosso e-mail não constava do sistema do hotel, o que causou alguma perturbação no check in, embora tudo se tenha resolvido

9.4

A minha reserva, apesar de confirmada pelo vosso e-mail não constava do sistema do hotel, o que causou alguma perturbação no check in, embora tudo se tenha resolvido

9.6

Ottimo albergo, personale disponibile e in lingua italiana. Metro vicinissima (2 minuti a piedi)

7.5

The hotel was very nice but outside the city center which means that you must take the metro into the city center each day and be back at the hotel before the metro closes.

7.9

English of reception staff not superb, glass of champagne with welcome

9.4

This was a welcoming and comfortable hotel. The only drawback was we had noisy neighbours and the hot breakfast buffet could have been filled up more often. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come again.The Reception staff were fantastic.

7.8

Good hotel for a short stay. Rooms were clean and tidy, however, they are a bit small. Bar and reception staff were friendly and welcoming. Hotel is well located next to the train station and the metro so getting to the heart of the city is easy.

9.7

we were welcomed with a glass of(good)spanish champagne.and we were allowed to let our car in the hotel car park as long as we left Barcelona.

9.8

Wireless or wired internet connection in the room will be a great asset. Great Hotel highly recommend.

8.5

After taking an hour (on a very hot day)to resolve a dispute as to whether breakfast was included in the terms quoted, we checked in. The checkin staff seem inexperienced and seemed to have no supervisor available to help. When she came on duty, Elisabet was very helpful in selecting a room. Room and breakfast were excellent. Supermarket adjacent to Hotel was useful. Hotel is in case-rolling distance (five minutes) to main Sant Rail and Bus Station and Metro. We would recommend Itaca to friends.

9.8

Wir konnten es kaum glauben, dass man auch für 80 EUR/Nacht und DZ so ein wunderschönes Hotel buchen kann!!! Es ist zentrumsnah und sehr schön. Wir haben ein Glas Sekt gleich an der Rezeption als Willkommens-Trank bekommen. Im Zimmer erwartete uns ein kleines Päckchen mit Pralinen als Aufmerksamkeit des Hotels, sogar die Frauenzeitschrift ELLE lag zum Mitnehmen auf dem Bett (zwar in Spanisch, aber für die unter uns, die so wie ich sehr gut Spanisch können, eine tolle Sache zum Üben!) Im Bad lag in einem Körbchen alles, was den Gästen, die gar keine Kosmetik-Produkte mitgenommen haben, trotzdem einen schönen Aufenthalt ermöglicht - von einer Zahnbürste mit Zahnpasta, über Duschkappe, Shampoo+Duschgel bis zum Schuhputzschwämmchen. Das Zimmer und das Bad waren so schön mit verschiedensten Detaills ausgestatten, dass wir uns wirklich sehr wohl fühlten! Nur das Frühstück haben wir nicht probiert, da man in der Nähe vom Hotel auch wunderbar frühstücken kann (und im Hotel kostet es pro Person 15 EUR). An der Rezeption gibt es auch kostenlosen Internet-Zugang. Wenn Sie also Ihre Unterkunft in Barcelona so schön in Erinnerung behalten möchten wie wir, dann buchen Sie auf jeden Fall dieses Hotel! Wir haben schon Vieles erlebt, aber so wohl fühlt man sich echt nur selten!

6.7

convenient for railway station, and easy public transport into town. room excellent, except would benefit from triple++ glazing, traffic noise throughout the night.

8.8

L'Hotel è davvero bello (le foto pubblicate rendono l'idea) e la posizione, anche se non centralissima, è carina. La metropolitana è davvero a 2 passi e in 10 minuti a piedi si raggiunge piazza Espanya. Nella piazza di fronte all'hotel c'e' la stazione di Saints da dove si puo' anche prendere l'autobus turistico (alla reception si possono acquistare i biglietti del BUS). Unica nota negativa è il costo della colazione di ben 14€, che ci è sembrato esagerato e così non abbiamo provato la colazione, preferendo i bar nei dintorni.

9.8

The Hotel is located in a relatively quiet surrounding with a near-by metro-station (100 m, 10 min. ride to the ramblas). The rooms are well equipped and clean. Hotel staff was very friendly (e.g. helped to get a rental car from a company in the neighborhood). The prices for breakfast are with 14 Euro in the usual range. If you do not want to spend this, you will find a bakery/coffee shop next to the hotel as well as a supermarket.

7.7

Nice and friendly hotel, reasonably big rooms (plus good-size bathroom). Location is excellent for trains and the underground from Sants - no decent bars or restaurants in the immediate neighbourhood, though. All in all, quite a good deal.

9.9

I have stayed here before and on every occasion the hotel has been great, from the welcome glass of Cava to the friendly staff. Sometimes the barman goes walkabout but it is Spain and he always comes back. Stay here!

8.2

Room was very nice but annoyingly it contained two single beds rather than a double bed. There was a mix up over whether breakfast was included or not, and we ended up being charged extra for breakfast, but breakfast was very nice. Location was close to metro, but 20 mins walk from Eixample shopping/tourist streets. Overall, very good value for a nice hotel - we would go back there if we return to Barcelona.

8.8

The hotel was very nice. The staff was fiendly. The only drawback was the location, the hotel was located some distance from the town's center. But on the other hand, it was in a residential area, which was safe and quiet. We probably will stay at Itaca again next time we visit Barcelona!

7.8

Hotel is pretty good, except for a Vodka, disappear from the frigo bar and appeared on the bill! But evrything went right in a moment. Just one negative note: I forgot my mobile in the room, wrote 2 mails to the hotel desk and never had any feedback. Pity!

9.8

Voglio ringraziare il team di Venere.com per il suo ottimo lavoro. Buon anno!

9.2

We really appreciated the excellent service and the friendliness. I don't mind that the breakfast is not included because there are two supermarkets and about 3 cafes in the very neighbourhood and you can have a different menu every morning. The breakfast buffet is nice though and they have some nice specialties in it too. The minibar did not seem very expensive compared to other hotels. The room was VERY small (actually there are two very small double bed rooms on every floor and we got them). However, we specifically asked for other features for the room and we had them. Train, buses and metro lines are 5 minutes away, shopping areas from Av Diagonal are about 30 minutes away by foot. The backview is quiet and pleasant and includes a child playground that is behind the hotel. The cafe has a very intimate section, it was definitely an overall pleasant stay.

7.9

Generally and excellent hotel. If the exchange rate had been better as it was earlier this year it would have been an even better value. Staying in a 4 star hotel for under £50.00 is excellent anyway. The restuarant was very good and had a very nice menu. We were warned about the poor value breakfasts by other reviewers, so came up with the idea of tea/coffee with cakes as room service. This only came to 10 Euros including the 3 for service charge! Highly recommended, the station is very near by which makes up for being slightly away from Central Barcelona.

8.5

L'hotel è molto bello e accogliente, il buffet colazione ê forse un pò caro, ma ne vale veramente la pena!!! Molto gentili e attenti alle nostre esigenze, disponibili... di certo se dovrò scegliere un albergo la prossima volta mi ricorderò di H10

8.2

They forget to specify the dimension (very little) of the bed; I suggest to write about this and give some alternative for toll people.

6.5

Arrival at H10Itaca **** -problem with room, but quick move to H10Gravina*** (excellent). Next day return to Itaca - room not up to 4* standard - eg.fridge not working, furniture tired, room small, amenities less. Staff at desk excellent, but restaurant dinner - food & service not up to 4* standard.

9.7

Very good hotel to spend a week in Barcelona. Quiet area near to the central station, the metro and two supermarkets. The rooms are clean and spacious. We will go there again next time.

8.6

First of all, the hotel is in an excellent location (very near metro Station Tarragona on line 3)so you can move very easily => very very good to spare time ! It is for sure a 4 star hotel (very nice building, rooms & service (even a printed sheet put in the room every day for meteo forecasting !!), welcome, newspapers)...but TV channels are crap (MTV in German with non stop adds for SMS & rings for mobile phones...). Now talking about money, be aware you get with VENERE a very good price but you have to add 14 Euros per day and per person for breakfast (I hope it is good for this price but we prefered to eat in a bakery in the surroundings for 5 Euros for 2 -> 23 Euros saved per day : yes !!) and 13 Euros per day for the parking (ggrrmmbll... fair but I would have liked to see it included). Conclusion : very good but I would have liked to get a little more services (a cup of coffee included for instance)

9.5

ottima sistemazione per visitare barcellona.ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo.vicinissimo alla metro e al centro.grazie venere!

9.2

Great value for money. It is a fresh looking four-star hotel with welcoming and professional staff at the reception. 3 minutes walk to the train and subway station. However, it seemed that the room cleaning was a bit rushed.

9.4

This Hotel is very good between price/quality. The breackfast-menue is very excellent and complete. Every time is this Hotel a good Residenz.

6.8

No breakfast included. Hotel is located pretty far from city centre, if you dont want use metro, its 4-5€ trip with taxi. Employees quite helpfull and friendly. Very nice bartender.

9.7

This was a fabulous hotel, right next to the Barcelona-Sants train station, and a short metro ride/15 min walk to the shopping center in Barcelona. Really, an ideal location, so peaceful and quiet at night, and a fabulous lounge area. They welcome you with champagne, and the lounge is a great place to relax after a day of sightseeing.

5.9

This hotel is considered to be a good hotel for business travel. It has good internet to use but the room are not as spacious as expected. This hotel is quite close to station too.

5.1

the bed of the room is too small for one person immagine for 2!

7.8

A good hotel for spending a weekend in Barcelona.

9.5

H10 Itaca is a good four stars hotel. It's near metro and near a sants station (main rail station). The breakfast is very very excellent. Albergo 4 stelle ottimo, vicino alla stazione della mentro e alla stazione ferroviaria di sants (una delle principali stazioni ferroviarie barcellonete). La colazione è veramente strepitosa.

9.0

A fantastic welcome the hotel is situated in a great spot for the metro which is cheap and easy to use.The breakfast was fantastic and the staff were extremely helpful.

10

We had a fantastic stay. The staff were friendly, the food in the restaurant was great, the room was big and well equipped. There was free internet in the reception which was a bonus. Highly recommeded. Very cheap hotel for the QUALITY of it.

10

We were delighted with the hotel. I spent a lot of time searching for a good deal and eventually paid EUR 440 for a 4 night stay with my wife and baby daughter. As we were travelling with a baby, it was essential that we had a cot in the room and I was able to communicate this directly with the hotel. The room was spacious, modern and very clean. The only minor niggle was that there were no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. Maybe this is the norm for Spain? Having said that, the service in the hotel was top class. From the reception staff, to the restaurant staff and even the cleaners, all were very efficient and courteous. They were attentive to our every need and very helpful with any 'baby needs'. All in all we had a very good stay and would definitely look to book with H10 again.

8.3

Even after being moved from the original hotel we booked to another hotel in the same chain we were impressed how this was handled. Excellent service all round.

8.1

We had a pleasant stay however we were under the impression we were very near the center "Las Ramblas"

9.1

My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel and would recommend it to anyone wishing to stay in Barcelona. Although it probably wouldn't be suitable for those taking children everything else was fantastic.

4.6

My girfriend and I both think that the bathroom was very small and possibly dangerous, due to the fact that the edge of the vanity has a sharp corner that could result in injury if someone fell in the shower which also didn't work properly. The shower head mount was worn and as soon as pressure was put thru, the head would move all over the place, producing a danger to those that used it, considering the vanity top.

10

Esta fue la primera vez que use el website venere.com para hacer mis reservaciones y estoy realmente complacida por el buen servicio. El hotel esta en excelentes condiciones, muy limpio, espacioso y la gente es muy atenta y muy amable. Al llegar al hotel resulto que las fechas de mi reservacion estaban equivocadas y muy amablemente me ayudaron a encontrar otras habitaciones. Estoy muy complacida con el hotel H10 Itaca y su gente. Gracias por el buen servicio

8.8

I liked the Hotel, it's location is close to the center, and nearby station Bus/Metro. They have good Internet in the entrance... I went for Honeymoon in Barcelona, got great welcome, and bottle of wine. I did not like at all the available TV stations. Simply unwatchable for English speaking, even MTV in German?!

8.8

The room service is really good. The room are comfortable with an excellent bathroom. Breakfast is plenty of food for all the tastes. The best thing is that it's quite close to the railway station of SANTS and to two underground lines. I strongly recommend it.

9.7

The hotel was at a mush higher standard than expected, and the distance to the city-center was shorter than it appeared on maps.

8.2

Overall the hotel compares very favourably with hotels of a similar price in the country areas of Spain eg Paradores. The one dinner which we ate at the hotel and breakfast which we ate every day were excellent. Little things let it down slightly eg the shower head would not stay in its holder easily and the batteries had been removed from the scales in the bathroom. The biggest problem for the hotel is its location ie near the main railway station with all of the problems which that brings. On our first day, within 100 metres of the front door, we were stopped by the Barcelona drugs police and searched, our money sniffed. It is quite a long walk to the Port Vell area and we ran up big taxi bills. We had selected the hotel specifically because it had a secure car park but on our first night our car was vandalised in the car park and the BMW badges prised from the bonnet and boot with considerable damage done to do so.

9.1

The hotel was clean, modern and well maintained. The breakfast was especially good. It is located close to a metro station and in walking distance of the Palace and Magic Fountain. I only have one critisism, we were not provided with bath robes as specified. If I'd have known this I would have taken my own! That said we would stay here again.

8.8

Very close to the Metro line and an easyish walk into central Barcelona but not in an area of natural beauty! Personally I found the bathroom a little cramped. Staff were excellent and very friendly. Helped us with reservations and recommendations for things to see and restaurants etc. If breakfast is included take advantage. It's great!

6.6

No Internet is available in the Hotel at all! In all Internet-marketing adds was listed that Internet was available in the rooms! We brought especially our notebooks with us for connecting to the Internet.

8.9

Modern and clean. Would use again.

8.1

We arrived early in the day and were greeted by a very friendly and efficient staff. After a glass of cava and a handfull of pistachios the world seemed a better place. This is a very good hotel which serves an excellent breakfast buffet. Highly recommended.

7.5

Somthing petty some would think, but I had been out ALL DAY on my feet and desperatley wanted a coffee. arrived back at hotle and duly asked for one, told to order room service whcih again I duly did, but when I spoke to room service the waiter was mythed that I only wanted a coffee.........45 minutes later he claimed he didn't receive the order, and it ws now too late. Spolied my stay..........

6.0

I asked per mail if i could pay with Traveller Checks 2 days before arriving. The answer (TC not allowed!!!) was send the day of arriving in the hotel... so i had no time to find another solution... This is not professional!
