Hotel Nuevo Triunfo

The Hotel Nuevo Triunfo was exactly what I wanted at the price. Clean, comfortable, nice staff (someone always on reception) and only a few minutes walk from the Metro station Paral·lel. It is also well located to walk to Fundació Joan Miró (Miró Museum) and the Montjuïc hill, castle and park. All of which I did.

10/10

Quiet location, but close to the Gothic Quarter and the fort. Very clean, no frills but rooms with balconies are great.

Convnient. Clean and safe.

Add 30€ on the price you pay for the hotel, overnight parking around cost between 24 and 30€

The single room I was in was rather small but it has a balcóny. The staff are very friendly and several of them speak good English. The breakfast buffet in the breakfast room was good for continental breakfasts. There are several restaurants and supermarkets in easy walking distance and it is only 5 minutes walk to the nearest metro station.

The hotel was a good place to stay for a short stay. It was a well run hotel and was very comfortable for me.

The hotel was clean and staff were very friendly. There was a bad smell in our room on arrival and we opened the window to air out the room which seemed to help a little but we then discovered that it was from the bathroom and had to ensure we kept the bathroom door closed for the entire stay so the smell wasn’t too strong in our room.

The hotel itself was ok, however it fell short in a few areas which, for the amount I paid was not great. You could be forgiven for thinking that the reception staff (one person) were security, vetting anyone who entered with a ‘buanas’ as a greeting. That is it. I’ve stayed at much cheaper places and received warmer welcomes. I paid over €120 per night however, the safe was extra, charged per night, as was breakfast. The AC was the biggest surprise. It was controlled centrally so regardless of the temperature you set it as, and the other guests were cold, you got hot air coming in. Rang reception and they told me that other guests were cold so I should switch off the AC. I had to open the window to let come cool air in but of course was woken up by people shouting and dogs barking in the street. The hotel is next to an Indian restaurant so got a few people gathering outside and speaking loudly. If you are a light sleeper and prefer cooler rooms, this is perhaps not the best option for you. The location was convenient for the metro. The bathroom smelt of sewage for the duration of my stay which I did not expect. Overall, it felt like a hostel, looked like a hotel, cost like a 5* with staff that needed a reminder of the warmth of customer service. I would not stay here again.

LIKES: the room was small but big enough for one person. I didn’t mind its size. Everything was nice and clean ! Appreciated daily cleaning service too. The beast was very basic ! (A choice of cheeses, salami/ham, fruit, mini croissants and small frittatas) but considering it’s a 2 star hotel is was good enough for me ! Coffee was lovely too. Great location, close to lots of shops, public transport. I didn’t even use my travel card, I managed to walk to all major sights ! So if you don’t mind walking, I would do it that way, you’d see so much more. DISLIKES: air-con in my room did not work, they told me how to switch it on but it didn’t help. There was a slight cigarette kinda smell which as a non-smoker I didn’t appreciate. Overall a really good experience for a few nights stay.

would recommend

Room was small which I expected. But it was very noisy early morning and woke me up early.

It’s super convenient. Clean. Well located.

Small room, good location

Good - Staff were very friendly. Hotel was fine for a 2 star. Staff knew how to get to various sites. Cafe was fine although very small. Not Good - Only booked on Sunday for arrival on Thursday and the cost was eye watering !! £162 per night. Plus the charge per night from Barcelona City ( £20 in total). Having spent a lot of money they wanted a 2 Euro per night to rent the in room safe.

The hotel was in a great position very close to Montjuic - easy uphill walk to the funicular. Staff very friendly. Quite noisy at night and no kettle for hot drinks which we had expected. There were plenty excellent options nearby for breakfast which we took advantage of rather than the hotel dining room. We thought that the tourist tax (over €18 for 2 people x 2 nights total) should have been more clearly stated at time of booking.

Solid hotel Inna great neighbourhood. Nothing luxurious but it met my needs. The staff are very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was good too.

The room was small, tired-looking and with a strange, almost cabbage-like smell. You could hear the goings on in other room through the drainage system in the bathroom, which was... interesting. I had to ensure the bathroom door was closed to ensure I was able to get as peaceful a sleep as possible. Breakfast itself was fine in terms of the offerings, although if there are more than two people having breakfast at the same time, conditions are more like sardines, it's quite cramped. However, the staff were extremely friendly and courteous in my limited dealings with them. Location is good, close to the Paral-Lel Metro station, so getting around the city was a breeze.

This is a very nice value for money hotel. Everything worked well and the room has all basic things you need. It is nothing fancy and the neighborhood is not the best one, but it is a very good place to stay and not far from the city center.

Great hotel clean and comfortable Very handy for metro
