Cheap and cheerful - Ibis Barcelona Centro.

We've stayed in quite a few Ibis hotels in various countries. This one was a bit more bare and functional than we've experienced before (or maybe that was just culture shock after the Newport Bay at DLP!) but it was fine. Comfy bed, friendly staff, decent cold breakfast buffet.

We chose it because it's 5 minutes walk from the Sagrada Familia, which is the one thing we wanted to do in our few short hours in Barcelona.

Great location for that, but otherwise not a very interesting place to stay. I think for a future trip we would stay somewhere in the Gothic Quarter which I'm sure would be more picturesque.

Thanks for that. We don't want to spend a fortune as we'll arrive around mid afternoon the day before sailing. They'll be two kids in tow though so we need enough room. Thanks for the tip!
