"Hotel Lauria"
written:
25 April 2001
To go to Tarragona in winter or spring allows you to go to a nice hotel for a good price.<BR>
So, if you want to try an hotel in an old building with a big room, a big bathroom and a view on the swimming pool, you can go to Hotel Lauria. You'll find it just right in the center of the town. An advice: go to walk on Rambla Nova just before going to bed, it's a delicate and fresh sensation when the day was sunny...
Pros: Around 9000 ptas per night
Cons: a pretty cold welcome
Rating: 4/4

If you want to eat something Italian which reminds you the Roman vestiges, you can go to this restaurant. While you're waiting for your dish, you can read more about the story of the area restaurant: Forum, circus, etc. <BR>
Enjoy your pastas, pizzas and anything else from Italy!!!
Pros: a very good location

Trains leave from for Sants-Estació every 30 minutes.
b. By bus (AEROBUS):
Buses leave for the Sants-Estació railways station every 15 minutes.
c. By road (taxi)
... but a taxi from the airport to Sants-Estació costs about 3,000 pesetas.
2nd step:
How to get to Tarragona from Sants Railways Station?
a. By train (the easiest way).Trains leave for Tarragona from Sants Estació every 55 minutes.
2. By bus
Hispania buses leave Barcelona for Tarragona from the Maria Cristina underground station (Line 3) on the Avinguda Diagonal (Barcelona).
Another possibility is catching one of Hispania Igualadina buses that leave from Sants Estació to Reus. Some of them are not direct to Reus and stop in Tarragona.
