Barcelona Hotel recommendations for solo female. Would like nice, clean and safe area with reasonable rates for Nov. 2017 for my first NCL transatlantic.
By the way great rates for NCL Epic from Barcelona to Port Canerval on Nov. 5-18,2017 for solos. I booked inside for $399.00.:confused:

Any information you have appreciated.

Catalonia Sagrada Familia Hotel in Barcelona, is this a safe area for solo female cruiser for 2 nites? Safe walking around? Cafes and shopping close by?
Other from TA cruise are staying here and I can share ride to port and probably have dinner with some of them.
Appreciate your help.

Doing TA in November. Group is staying at Catalonia Sagrada Familia Hotel and can share ride to port with group.
I am travelling solo and will be there 2 nites. Undecided as to what to do with my one full day. HOHO bus, semi-private tour, or just walk around and tour Sagrada Familia in afternoon.
Any help with what is near this hotel as to transportation, cafes, shopping, etc.
Thanks

Barcelona Hotel help. Need help from my Solo friends. Booked my first TA and first time on NCL Epic for November, 2017.
If I end up not sharing hotel room in Barcelona with another solo, what hotel do you recommend?
Also if you recommend city center area what is best and least expensive way from airport to hotel?
Then from that hotel to port?
My friend wants to stay at airport hotel and I feel we would enjoy the city more in city center not for partying just seeing the city. We arrive 2 days before cruise.
Thank you all so much for your help and any others on the 11/5/17 Epic?

Need all day tour day before transatlantic cruise on Epic. What do you recommend?
Staying at airport hotel to be picked up or returned to hotel.
Saw Barcelona Day Tours highly recomended. Which tour do you recommend?
We want to see and do as much as we can on one day.
-
We need an all day tour before transatlantic cruise the next day. Staying at airport hotel. What do you recommend for us to make best advantage of our time. Saw that Barcelona Day Tours highly recommended but unsure which tour to select.
-
Do you advise booking entertainment before getting onboard? First transatlantic for me and first NCL big ship.
Also, are there nightly shows besides the shows I can prebook like Priscillia Queen, etc.
Plan to book the Circuque dinner show.
-
Thanks. That was my assumption.
-
Thank you all for good advice. Planning to rebook to later. Rather travel at leisure than rush, rush!!!
TA starts in Barcelona to Malaga to St Thomas to PC.
That is another question, will we do immigration in St Thomas or PC?
-
Not sure which hotel we will stay for 2 nites in Barcelona before TA on Epic. For 2 adults what is the cheapest and best way to get from airport to Travelodge Poblenou? Taxi cost? Shuttles recommendation and cost?
Other hotel being considered is Barcelona Airport hotel which has a free shuttle.
What do you recommend for shuttle or taxi to port on Sunday?
-
First TA cruise. Booked air for 12:45 from Orlando. Is this too early to get off ship, get luggage, customs, shuttle to airport and catch this flight.
Please help me decide what time and how to plan this better?? Thank you!

Thanks "campolady" will look at these. Any more suggestions you have greatly appreciated.

Are there any tour operators for day tours? Cruise port on Tuesday, November 7, 2017. Would prefer an organized tours of castles, cathedral, etc. for solo traveler. Thanks for your help.
-
Thanks I appreciate your help and plan to check with them. It is so hard to pick good location when you don't know area.

There have been several hotel openings in Ft. Lauderdale, Dania, and Hollywood in the last few years. At the same time, the airport Hilton closed and they had a lot of rooms! Here are some brand new builds along with total renovations of old hotels/motels that had been closed down.

Thanks Royalcruz for this info. I will be flying into to FL in Dec. 2016 for one night for cruise out of Miami. Which hotel or hotels would you suggest for solo female in the Dania/Hollywood area? I would like the free airport shuttle and breakfast and good place to eat close by within walking distance.
Also, looking at shuttles. Used SAS in past. Do you recommend them or someone else?
Thanks so much for your help.

Been to Hawaii for times and always used SpeediShuttle. Reliable transportation at a reasonable price. Priced at a per person basis and you may be riding with strangers. It's kind of like a shared cab. I have used it in Honolulu and the Big Island. Airport to hotel with no worries.

Thank you so much for your help with the Shuttle advice, will contact them soon. Have a great day!

Need help from my fellow solo travelers. Flying to Honolulu in October. What is the most reasonalble and reliable airport shuttle to hotel for one person. Getting mixed reviews on searching and am confused. Hope you can help. Thanks.

Thanks everyone I'd be happy to answer any questions
Enjoyed your reviews. My cousin and I will be on Splendor in a few weeks. This is her first cruise ever. We have a balcony booked on deck 7 aft. Did you feel much movement? We have been booked quite some time but no midship on 7 available. Glad you enjoyed the Splendor so much and hopefully we will also. Thanks again for your reply.
