Happy stay in TRYP Barcelona”

We have a great holiday started with staying in TRYP Barcelona Apolo Hotel. Breakfast was great. Sub-way and bus stop at the door step of the hotel. 10 minutes walk to Les Rambles (the walking street). Friendly and helpful staffs. Will recommend to our friends.

Value For Money and Centrally Located.”

The hotel rate, centrally located location and the standard of the hotel gather with the friendly Reception gave me a good memory and reason to stay in this hotel if happen to come back to Barcelona again.

efficient and comfortable”

Everything ok (as expected with Tryp) except that we could not have a double bed. The bed is the most important for an hotel, so I still cannot understand why you cannot be sure of the kind of bed that you will get before you arrive ! Except for that, everything was ok.

great position in city”

Easy to find one’s way around from here. Near Metro and Port and short walk from Las Ramblas. Clean, convenient and comfortable. Staff very friendly.

Nice hotel but noisy”

Nice comfortable hotel, but located next to a night club which generates a lot of crowd noise late into the nights. Best to get an odd numbered room number, away from the crowds.

Great room, good location, very satisfied”

It was a secret deal from Agoda, prior to booking, we had no clue what kind of hotel or room type would be for us. Surprisingly, upon to our arrival at the hotel, we were so grateful to see it was a four star hotel with professional working staff and most important, the room we had was fantastic, spacious, cozy, comfortable bed and pillows. We had great time there. I mean I would like to come back. Location wise, super. Subway station and other lines of bus just outside of the hotel, literally 1 minute walking or even less. Gear surprise from Agoda!

Great service and value”

It was amazing! The beds were extremely comfortable, it was only a 10 minute walk from the main strip and the hotel was kind enough to hold onto our luggage until our train arrived past check out time

Wonderfull hotel!”

Absolutely wonderfull and helpfull staff! A special mention to Jorge who was really awesome! The room was lovely, spacious and clean. The location is superb. Breakfast was amazing too! Highly recommend this hotel!

What a great hotel indeed”

I stayed in this hotel from the 20th to the 27th of February. The hotel was actually everything I had in mind. The staff were welcoming and accommodating not minding I was asking them lots of questions and directions to the tourist places. The location of the hotel is very central to all the tourist places in Barcelona; it is very close to the metro, the bus and even the stop for the tourist bus. The breakfast served in the hotel is simply exquisite and covers all the breakfast choices anyone could ever imagine. The room I stayed in was fabulous and had everything I ever wanted. The temperature of the room was great and I could turn on the air condition when it was hot. I had great nights sleep and could not have asked for anything more. I will always fly the flag of this hotel, I will recommend it to my friends and will always use it each time I am in Barcelona. Perfect! Perfect!! Perfect!!!

Excellent”

Excellent. Great. From the time we stepped out from the taxi, we were greeted warmly with Victor,the bell boy. He immediately helped unload the luggages from the taxi into his trolley. The door man opened the door with a smile and basically everyone from the receptionist to the maid were gracious and warm. The room was huge with a spacious bathroom. Everything was provided. My baby enjoyed walking around the big room. We especially loved the breakfast buffet. It was excellent with a huge selection of food. Everything was tasty. I can't describe well enough how much my family enjoyed this. I found the croissant as good as the one we ate in Paris. The hotel is located near La Rambla and within a walking distance to the beautiful amazing Port Vell and Barcelona beach. Must stay here because it is worth every little penny that we have paid.

My trip to Tryp Apolo”

We arrived before booking in time and were given our room immediately, staff on reception were very helpful. Our room was standard double nice and comfortable, bathroom good but could do with re tiling around shower/bath wall area. Excellent self-service breakfast, all food hot and cold replenished as required. Service bit slow eg pots tea coffee, clearance of tables depending on what staff were on duty and clients for breakfast as some mornings very busy with coach loads departing early. Bar area disappointing but bar man on duty helpful and friendly. Good location short ramble on side street to las ramblas and bus metro stops just outside hotel. Beware of beggers we were taken aback at the amount of them! Overall we had lovely stay in Tryp Apolo and will be recommending to our friend.Eileen

Barcelona Apolo Tryp”

Hotel was clean and in a very good position about 10 minutes walk from the Ramblas. Staff at Reception were very good and provided a lot of help re attractions and trips etc. Room was not luxurious but was a decent size and comfortable. Only real problem was that the room overlooked the street. As there is a casino and club nearby it became very noisy with a lot of shouting in the early hours of morning. The windows did little to keep the noise out. Other than this, a very pleasant stay and would recommend. If given the option (which we were- wrong choice!) choose a room that doesn't face the street.

Sight seeing trip”

It was fine the breakfast was good though it was expensive but a great variety of food available. Unfortunately the Bar was understaffed and very pricey , I found after a long day it would be nice to come back to relax in the bar but the chairs are not designed to sink into a few couches would be better and the price of the drink was way above the local bars but the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating

Clean, good location, reception staff very helpful”

Gluten free options provided at breakfast which were delicious- however didn't realise this was available until last day so options were limited on other days. Asked reception for dinner recommendations each night and they were happy to help. Arrived at 11am and could check in immediately. All in all very pleasant and relaxing stay in great location- central so we could walk everywhere but metro right outside also.

central hotel, with only 10min walk to Ramblas ”

We stayed at the hotel for 1 week. Our room was on the 6th floor. Never heard any noises from the street, very quiet floor. It is very clean and very central. Ok some reviewers commented about the fact that it is outdated. The bathroom is outdated but everything worked fine, even hot water. In the end we stayed for 1 week and not lived there for x years. Breakfast is superb with a lot of variety. We were offered to upgrade to half board for only EUR 15 pppd but we always prefer to taste local food from different restaurants.

Very nive”

Just loved this place. I stayed here because it was close to the cruise ships and found it a perfect location. Close to the subway and shops. Very clean. The closeness to the docks made my travel to the ship that much easier.

Stressing dumb rule of the manager,horrible wi-fi ”

If somebody is choosing the half-board (break-fest+ lunch or break-fest+dinner)for more days,then he is forced by the manager's "rule", to come each day to reception and to take the ticket for lunch or dinner. Unfortunately, almost always will find at Reception, there, long lines waiting for information or checking, so the clients who need that daily ticket will loose lot of time there (each day for sure). Why? Because the manager imposed that foolishness "rule". Simply and better the manager can imposed a new rule, to release a lunch/dinner ticket for all days of the client sojourn,at once, as long the client payed for the half-board at the beginning. That rule is stressing and also humiliating for clients, of course. Well, I remember three of very positive and helpfully persons there, from Reception and from the Bar. I thank you all, by this way. Good position of the hotel,very friendly and helpful staff, TV channels with many interruptions, horrible wi-fi (bad even for a simple text when you have to wait for the echo of each typed word, the local server is issuing by a cycling rule to more windows wit advertising which always must be killed if you want to continue your message to friends in good conditions). The pasword is changing daily and you have to go at Reception, specially for getting a new one. Well...I guess the manager was a colonel in the Army and want to exercise with the clients also like in Army.

Excellent hotel, service, location, & room.”

Excellent stay; enjoyed the room, staff service, and location to major site seeing areas. Quality of room and breakfast were very good. Having a taxi stand next to hotel, bus and subway stops within a block were very helpful. Staff was pleasant and helpful with suggestions and ideas for both short and long stays.

not reliable”

it was our 2nd stay in this hotel, and for the 2nd time, the hotel was unable to deliver what has been booked : a double bed. If bedding is important to you when you book a place to sleep, better choose another place. At Tryp Apolo you cannot be sure what you will get to sleep in !

Weekend in Barcelona”

Stayed here 4 nights in April 2014, location is perfect, close to the sea, center of town and metro station. Also walking distace to main street La Rambla. We stayed in a Junior suite that was well equipted. The rooms and hotel is a bit worn but overall good standard. Execlent brekfast. God service in reception.Noice from street can be disturbing but not worse than most hotel in the middle of a city.
