I booked this hotel for the last night of a three week trip around Europe. I was by myself at that point, and I only went back to Barcelona to catch my return flight to the U.S. Having stayed in some pretty nice Best Westerns, I figured this would be a perfectly satisfactory place to spend the night. My flight... more

As far as airport hotels go, this one was good. It was located a few minutes away from the airport and here is our review! :) 1) When you arrive you have to CALL the hotel to send the shuttle, which is free, but if you dont call, you could be hanging out for a while. 2) If your flight... more

I was a bit nervous booking this with some of the reviews, but for 80E a night for our one night stay (in at 5pm and out at 6am) I figured we'd be fine. First - the location is near enough the airport to qualify as an airport hotel - the shuttle takes about 10 minutes (runs every half hour... more

As with many other reviewers, I found problems with the BW Alfa. I'll start with some good points... • good breakfast buffet, well presented and ample selection • clean and modern lobby with 2 free internet booths • free shuttle service to/from BCN airport • excellently presented bathrooms with neat sinks However, the bad points far outweigh the good... •... more

Booked this hotel as we have a vehicle over 2.1metres high and couldn't find anywhere else in Barcelona to park it. It is on the edges of the fruit/veg market (for this read main HGV distribution area), not by the airport as expected. The room was small, but clean and functional. The 'pool' about the size of anyone else's jacuzzi... more

Just booked one night prior to a cruise. Front Desk rude check-in and check-out. Industrial area. Restaurant expensive and limited times. Stayed after checking rates for hotels and cabs/transfers. A triple room is harder to find and much more expensive then a twin. No regular cab could take 3 passengers plus 5 large suitcases, so the shuttle worked the best... more

I've found in the past that Best Western hotels can be a mixed bad. Some are good, some are questionable. I was at a conference in the city and as a result of an admin 'issue' my company didn't book my hotel until the last minute - the Alfa was the only hotel available. The hotel is located some 15... more

15 minutes from the airport by car can be the only good point. Far from anything else : restaurants, town center,... Roads under the windows will not let you sleep as hotel is located in a very industrial area with a lot of trucks passing all the day. Moreover, walls are so thin that you will here your neighbours speak... more

This hotel is AWFUL! Stayed one night as we were in Barcelona overnight to make a connection, and this property is listed as 4 stars. The free shuttle van took over 30 minutes to pick us up, then the driver unloaded our luggage on the hotel driveway and walked away. The front desk person told us there was no staff... more
