Nuevo Colón is a hostel which was refurbished in 2007 in the historical quarter of Barcelona. Very close to the beach, the Picasso Museum, the Ramblas, the Gothic quarter, next to the Ciudadela Park in the heart of the famous district of Born in Barcelona.
It is excellently-communicated with the airport as the Estación de França train station is opposite the hostel from where there is a direct train to the Airport of Barcelona every 20 minutes.
In a friendly environment there are rooms and apartments which are refurbished every 2 years.
The location in Barcelona, the cleanliness, the good personal service and the variety of our rooms constitute our main advantages.
Our quality-price ratio is unbeatable in Barcelona.
