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

This is an above-average hotel in a great location! It is right on the square by the Cathedral and steps from the Ramblas, the Picasso Museum, many shops and restaurants, and an easy walk to the waterfront. The location cound not have been better. The lobby and entrance is very elegant, with professional English-speaking staff. The room was nice but... more

I'm more of a 2-3* hotel kind of person and not used to staying at such a 4* hotel like Hotel Colon. I didn't have much choice when booking a hotel in Barcelona because this was a last-minute trip. The hotel is of the old world 4* style, rather than the modern minimalistic kind. It's more suited for older folks,... more

Location is amazing! Would highly recommend this hotel more

The Hotel Colon faces the Plaza in front of the Cathedral. The classic architecture is pleasing, and the location can't be beat. It's around the corner from the Palace of Music, quite close to the Ramblas, and near several of the historical museums. The area is honeycombed with smart shops and boutiques and restaurants are in abundance. The lobby is... more
