It's a hotel we've stayed in twice in the last five years and I reckon £320 each is a good deal. It's 1 1/2 hours from Barcelona by train. Now booked up, no brainer really.
Waiting for tickets now before they sell out.
There’s 9 of us staying in Salou. We fly from Manchester on Friday afternoon and come back Sunday night. Flights were £85 return and four nights half board was £105 each.
We’ll head to Barcelona early on match day. Looking at train times it might have to be a bus though. They only seem to run from lunch time.
Re travel Salou to Barcelona ........try bus to Tarragona bus station then taxi to tarragona train station . There are plenty of high speed trains to Barcelona Sants station early morning onwards ......see Trainline europe to book tickets (about 2 months in advance of travel then print tickets at time of booking )...........bus approx 20 mins ....taxi 5 mins ......train to Barcelona approx 40 mins

Thanks for the advice mate, that sounds a good plan for us.
