I’ve consolidated the places I would recommend from my trips to Spain here with everything I loved, didn’t love and would suggest.
Barcelona
Room Mate Gerard
C/ d’Ausiàs Marc, 34, 08010 Barcelona, Spain
Loved the location, the design, the comfortable bed, amazing shower and the modern feel
Didn’t love anything! We loved our stay here.
Know that this hotel is an easy 20 minute taxi ride from the Barcelona airport
Sercotel Rosellon Barcelona
C/ del Rosselló, 390, 08025 Barcelona, Spain
Loved the views of Sagrada Familia, close to the Metro, large rooms, and price point
Didn’t love that the bed was a little hard and the decor was a little run down
Know to book a “city” view room so you have views of Sagrada Familia
Madrid
Room Mate Oscar
Pl. de Pedro Zerolo, 12, 28004 Madrid, Spain
Loved the location, service, rooftop views, and Starbucks next door
Didn’t love the room decor but the lobby was great
Know that you can get here quickly with a 25 minute taxi ride from the airport but you can explore everywhere in Madrid on foot from here
ME Madrid Reina Victoria
Pl. de Sta. Ana, 14, 28012 Madrid, Spain
Loved the comfortable bed, views, beautiful decor, and location
Didn’t love that the plaza out front was a little loud and echoed into our room until late in the night
Know to ask for a room with a view and have the address pulled up on your phone for taxi drivers as there are several hotels with names close to this one and they sometimes get confused
Sevilla
Corral Del Rey
C. Corral del Rey, 12, 41004 Sevilla, Spain
Loved the location, the design, the rooftop for views, the shower, and the service
Didn’t love anything! We loved our stay here.
Know to have breakfast here each morning that comes with your stay
Granada
Hotel Casa 1800
C. Benalua, 11, 18010 Granada, Spain
Loved views of the Alhambra, location, and the staff
Didn’t love that the wifi wasn’t great, the decor was run down, and the AC didn’t work when we were there
Know that this hotel is best for the views of the Alhambra and the design in the lobby area while the rooms are just so-so
