We took an MSR Hoop across the Pyrenees. For 2 people, it is very spacious and you get a porch each which is a real bonus for me (I'm tidy, gf is very much not). Weight is good at less than 2.5 kg (if you're pegging it out, you don't need to take the extra little poles, I'd guess it's 2.2kg without them but with a few spare pegs)
I really liked it and it kept out a couple of proper storms no bother. A bit pricey at 280ish quid. If you know anyone going to the USA then I think you can get it for that many dollars (we couldn't wait as the old tent sprung a leak and I broke a pole 2 weeks before we left...)
