  • Not cheap cheap but we stayed in Le Meridian off Las Ramblas which was in a superb location. The hotel itself was ideal given the little time we spent in our room.

    Have you got any tesco vouchers? You can spend them on Barcelo hotels http://www.tesco.com/clubcard/deals/product.aspx?R=1175

    Have a look at Hotel Principal. My parents stayed there and it was a reasonable price.

    EDIT: Just had a look, you can get 3 nights for about £170 in January (through booking.com).

    I stayed there last year and it is definitely one of the cheapest, it's just of Las Ramblas aswell. We booked through last minute.com

    On my last visit to Barcelona I stayed at the Praktik Hotel, just checked prices and it's 54 Euros per night in January. Closest Metro station is Girona and it's a few minutes walk from Passeig de Gracia (bars, restaurants and shops) and Placa de Catalunya.

    Try Hotel Lloret which is based on the Ramblas, i stayed there around 5 years back and thought it was very good value for what it was

    We used Habitat apartments when we went.
    http://www.habitatapartments.com/

    We stayed at the Alibei apratments for 4 nights - pretty central and found it easy enough to walk to the Ramblas, waterfront, zoo etc.
    Apartments were a good standard and will use again next year.

    Obviously the more people that go - the cheaper the accomodation is per person.
