This hotel is the 3 star "sister" hotel of the 4 star Hotel Colon. We've stayed in both and prefer this one. If you insist on a room over looking the Cathedral (which is covered in scaffolding) then stay at the Hotel Colon. If you don't want the view stay at the Hotel Regencia Colon and save some money on the room. Keep in mind some of the Colon rooms look out to the Regencia! From our room you could even see a corner of the Cathedral Square! Hotel was not offering breakfast so we walked up-the-block to the "local" coffee chain "Cappuccino". Skip Starbucks and have breakfast here with the locals. For dinner run -- don't walk -- to Neyras and eat in the tapas bar. Regencia Colon is right in the Gothic Quarter and within 3 or 4 winding blocks of Las Ramblas.

Front desk personnel were very friendly, spoke excellent English, were very helpful on giving us tour information, etc. Great location! Easy to walk to shopping. Made taxi arrangements for us to get to the cruise ship terminal. Wish we had more time in Barcelona and we would stay here again.
Highly recommend, if ....
We stayed before getting on cruise ship. The staff were very friendly and willing to help. The location of this hotel is close to the cruise ship areas. I plan on taking another cruise next year and will use this hotel for our group.
We stayed at the hotel before taking cruise. The location was great and the room was well worth the value. I plan on staying again next year. Staff was friendly, room was large and the bathroom was very clean as was the whole room.
We had depended on the reviews here to help us narrow our hotel selection down, but were still leary about what we'd find upon arrival...What a relief to find a great little hotel in a fab area of town! We loved being a stone's throw from the Cathedral Gotic and just a few blocks from the Placa Catalunya and Las Ramblas! The shopping, dining, wandering and people-watching in this area is endless, and the Metro is easy to navigate from 2 close by stops that connect to 3 different lines. Our main focus is always on location, location, location, so this was perfect for us. As for the accomodations, our room was bright and roomy with all of the necessities readily available. The bathroom was great, there was a quiet elevator, and the staff was friendly. As for criticisms, the hotel still had central heat going, so we had to turn our unit off and open the balcony door to keep cool during a temperature spike. Also, I would recommend packing a hairdryer, as the one provided is not very effective and gets too hot to hold after a few minutes! Several reviewers commented on the loud street sounds, and while there were some, we were not bothered by it at all...perhaps we were just too exhausted every night, but we slept with our balcony door open every night, which faced the Plaza, and weren't bothered at all except for one late night garbage truck! Overall, a great spot- we'll stay again!
...you consider a hotel room only to be a place where you lay down your head at night. Our room was OK (clean but you can hear the street traffic) and the staff are courteous and very helpful. The strongest point is the hotel's location...it's ideally located for getting around town (right across the plaza from the cathedral and a
