Advice Finding Affordable Hotels in Barcelona for 3

[Demonic Bomb Dance Mix]

I've been looking into hotels in Barcelona for a trip with two friends, but I'm noticing that room rates almost double when booking for three people. Has anyone found good strategies for finding more budget-friendly options? Do you have tips on specific areas to stay in or alternative accommodations like hostels or vacation rentals? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I totally understand the struggle! One strategy is to look for hotels that offer family rooms or suites, as they can sometimes be more cost-effective for three. Alternatively, consider booking a vacation rental through platforms like Airbnb or Vrbo—it often gives you more space and amenities. Neighborhoods like Gràcia or Poble Sec are great for local vibes and might have some affordable options. Have you thought about staying slightly outside the city center to save on costs?

You make a great point about family rooms! Another tip is to check for last-minute deals or discounts for longer stays, which can often bring costs down. Also, consider looking into hostels that offer private rooms for three—this can give you both privacy and a social environment. For areas, I'd suggest checking out El Born or Eixample; they tend to have a good mix of affordability and proximity to popular attractions. Have you set a budget range for your accommodations yet?
