The best-known ones are to be found in the old part of town. La Perla has long been associated with Hemingway. The Yoldi, near the old quarter, has long been associated with the bull-fighters and their entourage; the toreros used to go there. The Maisonave and the Europa are both to be found within the old part of town.
The former has an underground parking lot. It must be remembered that all these hotels are very close to all the action going on in the old part and if you are a light sleeper and seek some peace and quiet then it might be better to look for an hotel further out in the newer suburbs.

These hotels should be booked well in advance. Listed below are some of the hotels where you can give a needed rest to your post-partying body. Barcelona. 1.
