The Colon has been a crash pad for such formidable figures as Ernest Hemingway, Jean Paul Sartre, and Sofia Loren. With the hotel's Gothic Quarter location, guests will be able to reach the famous Plaza Catalunya, Port of Barcelona, and La Rambla in approximately five minutes' walk. La Carabela restaurant is a convenient, casually elegant destination for Mediterranean specialties. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. Room service is available. To suit guests' needs, the hotel offers two meeting rooms, event support services, laundry valet, and a concierge. El Prat International airport is approximately 20 minutes away by car. There are 145 rooms on six floors. Single, Double, and Suite guestrooms are available.

Don't pay extra for the view, the Cathedral is under construction and totally covered

no view

 by  anonymous  on  2006-05-02

Hotel Colon is directly across from the Cathedral. Cathedral is undering massive restoration & is covered in scaffolding. View overlooking Cathedral square is facinating non-the-less. Rooms are comfortable but a bit worn. Carpeting needs to be replaced. Interior room is very quiet. Balcony room larger but more noise. Check out Neyras restaurant down the street for tapas/dinner. Yummy!
