I stayed at the Vincci Condal Mar for 4 nights in January 2008. I would rate it as more of a Business Hotel and less of a Leisure hotel. It is located about 30 minutes from Barcelona International Airport and it takes you about 50 Euros by cab to get to the hotel from the Airport.
Location: However, location does not pose to be too much of a problem, as the Metro Station(Selva de Mar) is a 5 minute walk from the hotel.
The area appeared to be safe and my wife and I walked from the hotel to the metro station late at night, and even though the streets were deserted, I think it was pretty safe. The locality is on the out skirts of Barcelona and may not be five up market, but it is not bad either. By Metro it will take you about 30 minutes to the city centre and if you do not mind the travel it is great.
The rates are economical and I would strongly recommend this hotel as it is very good value for money. There is a buffet breakfast which was top notch however I was not very impressed with the ala carte and room service menus.
It is ideal if you are going to do a lot of sightseeing in Barcelona and use the hotel for a good night’s rest and a sumptuous breakfast.
