Hotel Constanza: Entrance
So, you want to chill out and curl up on a comfy bed after a day at the beach or hours of jumping on and off the Bus Turístic? Hotel Constanza, located a few blocks from Plaça Catalunya off Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, may have what you're looking for. Its spacious lobby area is an ideal place to catch your breath, and elegant touches of sangria red accents and dark wood tones create a soothing, relaxing vibe in its rooms.

Hotel Constanza opened in 2004 with 14 rooms on two floors of a charming modernist building in L'Eixample Dreta. Following the trend-setters in the Barcelona hotel scene who are frequently converting old turn-of-the-20th-Century edifices into choice accommodations, the hotel went through a significant renovation and expansion in early 2008. It updated the look of its common areas, added a restaurant and expanded to 44 rooms on five floors. The rooms are equipped with full bathrooms, air conditioning and heating, telephone, TV., mini-bar, Internet connection, and even optional background music.

The hotel - officially listed with two-stars although it may be upgraded once the final touches have be wrapped up - has a sophisticated air that would appeal to both independent and business travelers. Rooms are competitively priced at 100€ per night for a single and 120€ for a double. An additional 6€ will get you breakfast.
