I echo what chachacha said. I would not advise ordering Sangria on Las Ramblas without knowing price in advance. Hope you learn from my mistake. The view from Catalonia Barcelona Plaza Hotel is wonderful. Two MUST SEE items, in my opinion, are the spectacular Font Magica at night and Montserrat via train. I hope to return someday. So many tapas restaurants, so little time. Also, loved La Boqueria Market. If you enjoy wine, we found that we could freely partake of the local wine with no ill effects the next day. We were told that it was because no preservatives were added. Who knows???
