HOTEL OASIS, Barcelona

The hotel is perfectly placed for exploring the city on foot or by public transport. Barceloneta Metro station (L4) is right outside, providing direct access to the city centre and Sagrada Família. França Railway Station is 250 metres away. The beach, bars, and restaurants of Barceloneta are within 200 metres, while the Gothic Quarter and El Born are a 5-10 minute walk. Port Vell is a 10-15 minute walk. Ciutadella Park is 300 metres away. From the airport, take a taxi (25 minutes, around 35-40€) or the Aerobus to Plaça Catalunya then the metro. The nearby streets are lively, with many dining and nightlife options within a few minutes' walk.

Rooms are equipped with air conditioning, heating, soundproofing, flat-screen TV, safe, and free toiletries. Superior rooms feature a private terrace or balcony with city views, while interior rooms have a window facing an internal patio and limited natural light. Room sizes vary: some categories are compact and better suited for short stays; others, particularly superior rooms, offer more space. Road-facing rooms may pick up street and bar noise until late, especially on lower floors. Higher-floor rooms tend to be quieter. Beds range from single to quadruple, but firmness preferences vary. Some rooms include a minibar. Daily housekeeping is provided. Note that double rooms cannot accommodate an extra bed.

Breakfast is offered as either a continental option (€7/person/day) or a buffet (€18/person/day). The continental includes bread, pastries, and hot drinks; the buffet adds cheeses, cold cuts, fruits, and cooked items. The on-site café-bar (Oasis) is open throughout the day for coffee, cocktails, and snacks. There is no restaurant, but a vending machine provides drinks and snacks. The surrounding area is filled with restaurants and bars within a short walk, particularly towards Barceloneta and El Born.

The rooftop terrace features a small saltwater swimming pool, typically open from April to October. The pool is unheated and compact-better suited for cooling off than for swimming. Sun loungers and beach towels are provided. The pool bar serves cocktails and drinks. The terrace is a popular spot for sunbathing and relaxing, but it can become lively, especially on weekend evenings when music plays. Note that access to the pool may require purchasing a drink during bar hours. The pool is closed during the winter months.
