Let’s be honest, choosing a hotel for MWC Barcelona can be tricky but here at EAS we’ve created the perfect checklist for you to pick the right hotel that has all of your needs.

We used this same checklist for finding our own hotel partnerships for MWC Barcelona. We’ve been partnering with Seventy Barcelona, Sonder Paseo de Gracia, The Corner, 1898 Hotel, and OHLA Hotels for the past few years and each one has the best benefits and perks for each client’s specific needs. 

We know that there are many types of travelers for MWC Barcelona. There’s the solo traveler, the small group (for those of you traveling in a group of less than 5), the large group (for groups more than 5) and the family affair (for those traveling with their family members). It’s smart to know what kind of traveler you are before using the checklist.

TIP: Know what kind of traveler you are? Reach out to us at EAS to see what special discounts and upgrades we have for you! Every traveler is special to us.

MWC Barcelona Hotel Checklist #1: Location, location, location

Barcelona is a small, but large city made up of different districts, and barrios (neighborhoods). There’s the district of the city center which includes the barrios: Raval, El Born, and Gothic. These barrios are great, but crowded with small streets making some areas inaccessible for taxis.

We could go on and on about the different districts of Barcelona, (we love this city) so we suggest you take a more in depth look at this article here: 

Barcelona Area Guide: Neighbourhoods (Barrios)

The EAS recommendation is Eixample. Why? Location, location, location. Right smack dab in the middle of Barcelona is the sweet spot and exactly where you want to be. Our partner hotels are centrally located with easy access to public transportation, taxi stands, and our very own EAS door to door transportation service.

MWC Barcelona Hotel Checklist #2: Service 

Everyone knows when traveling things can happen. Unforeseen life events, small mistakes or even an overlooked date can occur. With so many events and information buzzing around MWC Barcelona, we know the occasional slip-up can cause some damage.

That’s why a hotel with great service can alleviate some of the pains and setbacks. We chose to partner with hotels that not only can help you solve problems and provide supreme service, they can also help navigate you if you don’t speak Spanish or Catalan. They speak your language and are available 24hrs a day. Even with our more self-guided hotel like Sonder Paseo de Gracia well suited for solo travelers, we’ve made sure that help is available around the clock for all your MWC Barcelona needs. 

The Mobile World Congress is the world’s largest and most influential connectivity event. That’s why we’re giving you a few tips to know BEFORE your arrival to help make your experience at MWC one that you can truly enjoy. 

MWC Barcelona Hotel Checklist #3: Breakfast, food and drinks 

There are long days ahead for MWC Barcelona so a hotel with a good and hearty breakfast can have you full until lunch. We believe in quality food and drinks. 

Hotels with quality, restaurants and bars service can offer you an alternative when you don’t have the time to go to restaurants. With all of the networking at MWC, Barcelona, sometimes time is not a luxury. So, a hotel with great food and drinks is important on our checklist. At our partner hotel, Seventy Barcelona, they also have a rooftop, which brings not only great food, drinks, and service, it also leaves us with an irresistible view.

MWC Barcelona Hotel Checklist #4: Beautiful Atmosphere

No one ever really talks about the psychology behind hotels, but that’s what makes us different at EAS. We believe you should always care about the hotel atmosphere.

What do we mean when we say atmosphere? We mean the building and structure, the safety, and the overall general interior vibe. A hotel with a beautiful building and structure means that you’ll always have hot water for your shower, it means that the air conditioning will be ready to use and it also means that you can walk around and enjoy where you’re staying. It’s important to us that our clients feel safe. Safety is one of the top basic human needs. Fulling this really can help you be put at ease.

Our partnered hotels have interior makes you feel right at home from the moment you step in. We choose hotels that make you want to have a coffee there instead of going elsewhere. We know that not many people have :atmosphere on their hotel checklist, but trust us, atmosphere is essential!
