Which IBIS property in Barcelona
Hi Folks,
We r planning a trip to Barcelona and I want to use my A-club vouchers there..Was checking out IBIS's there and surprisingly find many many hotels of this brand there..^
We need one which is not too expensive and nearby some metro / train stop so that its easy to move around..
Am looking at a price of about Eur 60 per night for a double room ( which am getting presently at some of these hotels) excluding bfast..
Any experience with any of the IBIS hotels in Barcelona is appreciated..
Cheers
Abhi

Only Ibis Pza Glories 22 and Merdiana are reasonably located. I would choose Pza Glories 22 - it is much more central and the neighborhood is more lively, but it is usually more expensive than others. Have you checked rates at HIX Barcelona? Their FF rates also start at 60 eur and you have breakfast included

I thought it might be the reason Since you are looking into using your vouchers at IBIS, I assume you do not have an "unlimited" supply of them. If the rate is the same, go for Glories 22, no doubt. But also consider that at some IBIS hotels you can get a discount up to 30% for staying several days on flexible rates that can be paid with vouchers - imho much better value than 92 eur for IBIS in Barcelona.
