I agree with other reviewers on this page that if you want somewhere right in the centre of Barcelona, then this hotel makes a great base for vacationing in the city. However, I was there on business. If you're planning to stay here and need such things as full internet facilities in the room, a desk to work from in... more

This hotel is located next to the cathedral and in a wonderful old area for walking and shopping. We were treated to a large second floor room facing the cathedral although we had not requested this. The staff was very efficient and helpful. The only slight problem we had was not with the hotel but with our taxi ride to... more

I loved to stay there it's a very nice and friendly hotel, service is great and also the food and cleaning service is perfect. Walking to the La Rambla takes like 5 minutes. The Picasso museum is also in 10 minutes walking distance. Just perfect . more

We stayed at this hotel in July/08. It is right on the Plaza in front of the grand Cathedral. What a beautiful cathedral ! We loved the balcony room overlooking the church. When they complete the exterior refurbishment of the cathedral and take down the scaffolding, these rooms will be great. 2 blocks from the Metro, and 6 blocks from... more

Frommer's rated the Hotel Colon as best located and after staying there for three nights, we couldn't agree more. It is perfectly located, across from the cathedral and the Bus Turistic stop is across the Plaza. It is within walking distance of La Rambla, the Picasso museum, La Palau de la Musica, everything. It is even within walking distance of... more

This was our second trip to Barcelona and we tried to stay here previously, but it was full. We are glad we gave it a second chance. Went with our daughter and son-in-law; who arrived before we did. They had a nice chat with the front desk and had us moved from a back room to a room facing the... more

Conveniently located right across from the Cathedral, the Hotel Colon provides comfortable accomadations, albeit simple. The Hotel has a fantastic location as it literally sits on the plaza where the Cathedral is located, and is only a 5-7 minute walk to La Rambla (one of the main walking streets in Barcelona) and the Catalunya Metro stop. The hotel staff were... more

This is a very good choice in Barcelona. It is just a couple blocks off La Rambla and is right across the street from the Catradal. The rooms are small but quiet and comfortable. The Service was perfect. Take time to wander the streets in the evening, this place doesn't start to come alive until around 8PM. The Breakfast is... more

We had a reservation at the sister hotel Regencia Colon, but when we arrived on May 1, the Regencia said they had overbooked and were transferring us to the "four star" Colon. Unfortunately, the Colon is not up to par. The rooms were hot and the air conditioning hadn't yet been turned on for the summer. Moreover, the bedspread, carpeting,... more
