Hotel Market

Sleeping in Sant Antoni, next to the market

Hotel Market opened in 2004 in a Modernista building on Carrer del Comte Borrell, in the pedestrian part of Sant Antoni, next to the market. It is an unpretentious three-star with a renovated interior, and its distinctive feature is the ground-floor restaurant, with the same entrance as the hotel: local cooking from 13:00 to 22:00 with no afternoon break, with a set menu of the day. For a weekend of vermouth, market and dinners around the neighbourhood, it puts you right in the thick of it.

Rooms, breakfast and car

There are single rooms, doubles with a balcony or a terrace, junior suites and suites. All have air conditioning, a safe and a hairdryer; the minibar is only in the suites. There are adapted rooms: ask for them when you book. Cots are free and, in some rooms, an adult extra bed fits for €50 a night, or a child's bed for under-13s.

The buffet breakfast is served from 7:30 to 11:00 and, if it is not in your rate, costs €13.95. Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out before 12:00. The tourist tax, €7.70 per person per night, is paid at the hotel. If you arrive by car, the hotel works with Garatge Tamarit, a minute away, at €20 per 24 hours.

Getting around without a car

Sant Antoni (L2) and Urgell (L1) stations are a few minutes away. The Aerobús stops at Carrer de Sepúlveda, 125, less than five minutes' walk. To Plaça de Catalunya or La Rambla it is about 20 minutes on foot.
