According to Wikipedia Barca (or Barce) was an antique city in what is now Libya. Nice to know that so many people in the UK and Ireland know their history... But I doubt they had a Hilton there.
Are you by any chance trying to refer to Barcelona, Catalunya, Spain? In that case it would be nice to show some respect and use the city's actual name.
Oh, and there is of course this sports club called "Barça" (close to "Barca", I admit it). But they don't own an Hilton either as far as I know...
(In general I have given up on correcting this common mistaken, but since in this case it found its way to a thread title I really couldn't resist.
