Hotel Blauet by Bossh Hotels

We stayed after our cruise for one night before flying home. The hotel is advertised as close to airport, but still about 8 miles away. Hotel is in the suburbs and not very easy to find a cab. Bus and train services are available to get into Barcelona. Staff was very friendly and helpful, but there was no air conditioning at the hotel. This is not advertised. Our room was like a sauna. No one was able to sleep. Our room faced the front of hotel on a street. We had to open the window to get the room below 90 degrees. This made the room very loud.

Chose Hotel Blauet because it was far cheaper than other options and was close to the airport. Eddy on reception was brilliant! warm and informative, nothing too much hassle. Went out of his way to explain the diversion on Metro and other advise. I work in a four star hotel in the UK and he made me feel comparatively miserable and unapproachable :) . All other staff also fantastic, printed out boarding pass without issue. Metro within walking distance of hotel with hand luggage although wouldn't fancy it with big hold luggage. Room spotlessly clean, got a good nights sleep and good free internet. Hotel well and truly exceeded expectations. Read a few reviews commenting on the expensive cost of taxi fares from hotel... Do yourself a favour and download the cabify app to your phone that is used across Spain. No worries about getting ripped off, cheap as chips. I will be returning to hotel. Disliked · Shower holder wasn't fit for purpose, so had to hold shower head while showering. Wasn't a problem though... Also didn't like the timer ticking down on the hotel website when trying to making a direct booking. Felt like a cheap pressure tactic and unnecessary. It actually dissuaded me from booking direct. Clutching at straws for dislikes though had a brilliant stay.
