Aparthotel Bertrán

This hotel is good value if it fits your style. It is clean, comfortable, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The location is towards the edge of town, in a non-touristy neighborhood that was fun to explore. Lots of shops: grocery stores, bakeries, and restaurants. This is a hilly area, and the hotel is maybe a quarter mile from the metro. It is fine for good walkers, but not great if you have mobility issues. If you want to step out of your hotel and be on Las Ramblas, then this is not the place for you, although downtown Barcelona is easily accessible by metro. We were interested in Park Güell, Sagrada Familia, and other Gaudí buildings, and we were happy to use public transportation and walk a few miles during the day.

I loved the area, away from tourist crowds, in a residential and very pleasant location, with plenty of buses and metro options, a short distance to the city center and near park Guell. The hotel staff was very professional and considerate for all my requests. A great size of continental breakfast was delivered to the room in a very timely manner every day. The room was super clean and the shower was perfect and looked like it had been redone recently. The layout was also of a great size, with the room providing all the equipment you need for a perfect stay.

This was my second longer stay at the Aparthotel Bertran. All the staff are very nice, helpful and cheerful. The cleanliness of the rooms is great. In addition: - special thanks to the boss for helping with luggage lost by the airline during this stay and for keeping the reservation during my first stay despite problems with the Booking website. - special thanks also go to the lady who brings breakfast on weekdays - thank you very much for your kidness, small talks, tasty and hot coffee and croissants. - and additionally, greetings to the young man of Polish origin from the reception. Thank you for the whole nice stay. I'm looking forward to seeing you all in October.

Very good location near the Av. Tibidabo metro station (15 minutes travel to Barcelona cite center). It was nice place without any noise from the neighborhood. Rooms are not big but also not small, just as you expect for the room for 2 people. We felt very comfortable there. The location is very near to Tibidabo Amusement Park Funicular station (the cable way). We walked there, because the tram was out of service. Also the Park Güell is in walking distance (about 20 minutes). It is quicker to walk than use metro down to the city (L7) and then back using the different metro line (L3) to go up again.

Aparthotel Bertran was excellent for me, as a solo, first-time traveler to Spain. First impressions - it is located on a narrow side street (by US standards). But this is a safe narrow street, with a mini mart, a florist, and a pharmacy just steps away. All day long there are local residents walking dogs or strolling by. It's a nice location. Nearby is the University District. Lots of students, academic buildings and the Science Museum. A couple blocks away are the main avenues with many restaurants and stores. This is a boutique hotel - meaning small lobby, small elevator. 1-person desk. But everything is fine. I strongly recommend ordering the morning continental breakfast. It's beautifully presented, nice china, hot coffee or tea. The room is cleaned each day - new towels, bed made. The room is plenty big. You'll be comfortable with the amount of space.
