First time sailing on Celebrity and we will definitely do it again. We flew to Barcelona a day early and stayed at the Hotel Barcelona Universal and spent a night there after the cruise before flying home. The Hotel was clean, staff was friendly and helpful, good food at the restaurant and the location was ideal. The metro station is just out the front door and the Ramblas was a 10 minute walk.
We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again the next time we are in Barcelona.
We used Autosvillar for our transfers in Barcelona. There were four of us traveling with six pieces of luggage. The cost was reasonable and we all got to travel together. The drivers were prompt, friendly and very helpful. Would highly recommend them.
We were in a veranda cabin #9203 and it was great. The only complaint we had about the room were the pillows were too soft and small.
