We stayed 2 nights at the Hotel Ayre Gran Via in Barcelona. We were really impressed with how clean, comfortable, and roomy it was. We also got a fantastic rate by booking on venere.com, it was less than $150 in USD per night!! Although it's a good distance from Las Ramblas and other attractions, It's very close to the Metro... more

Booked this trip to Barcelona as a surprise birthday present for my wife. We both were more than happy with Ayre Gran Via. We had an early morning flight which meant we arrived at the hotel very early. Fortunately our room was ready and we immediately checked in. Our room was excellent with double bed (not 2 beds pushed together),... more

This hotel was a lovely modern number with a great location - only moments from Montjuic, Bus Turistic, and the Metro - so really easy to get around without being right in the thick of things. The hotel rooms are well appointed - probably not top class, but of a reasonably good standard for what you pay. The bathroom is... more

While in Barcelona on a business trip, I thouroughly enjoyed staying in this hotel. Firstly, location: it is next to Placa Espanya, so its quite touristy but not noisy or crowded like Las Ramblas area. 2) Transport: the A1 express bus from the airport stops 50 metres from the hotel. Get off at the first stop, walk back 50 metres... more

We had been traveling around barcelona, staying in basic hotels and even camping, and as this was the last part of our trip we booked this hotel as a bit of a treat due to its promised of a top class service, good location and reasonalble price. On arrival we were impressed by the secure under groud parking, (that was... more

Stayed for 4 nights at the end of April 2008. Hotel was very very stylish, super clean and the staff were really helpful. Only downsides for us were the location - only 4 tube stops outside of town but there isn't anything of interest in the vicinity or any decent bars/restaurants. Also the hotel itself could maybe do with a... more

We stayed at the Ayre Hotel, Gran Via as part of a round-the-world honeymoon trip. We booked the Ayre Hotel at the last minute and got a great rate on our room (admittedly it was the low season). Our room was spacious, tidy and modern. I fell in love with the bathroom, which was huge and well-lit, two things that... more

My boyfriend booked for us to go to Barcelona for 2 nights at this hotel for my birthday. I initially looked the location of the hotel up on a map of Barcelona and thought it was a long way out of the centre......how wrong was I!! The location is perfect for exploring all of Barcelona's beautiful areas. We were welcomed... more

This is an excellent hotel, with great transport connections. The Airport Bus drops you about 50 metres from the hotel, and Metro Line 1 is about a 2 minute walk. In addition to this, there is an FGC station about the same distance away with trains to Montserrat, which was one of the main reasons for our visit. I would... more
