Map & location


Barcelona, Spain

Set on the elegant Avinguda Diagonal, this hotel places you in a refined, central slice of Barcelona between the Eixample and Gràcia districts. Iconic Gaudí masterpieces like La Sagrada Familia and Casa Batlló are within walking distance, while Passeig de Gracia’s designer boutiques, tapas bars and pavement cafés are a short stroll downhill.

At night, you’re perfectly placed to dip into buzzing neighbourhoods such as El Born and the Gothic Quarter, then retreat to a quieter, more residential-feeling base. It’s a strong choice if you want a stylish address that still feels connected to “real” Barcelona rather than just the tourist trail.

  • bus stop 120m
  • metro station 260m
  • La Sagrada Familia 1km
  • Plaça de Catalunya & Las Ramblas 1.6km
  • Beach (Barceloneta area) 3.5km
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 25–35 minutes by taxi; allow around 45–60 minutes by public transport depending on connections.

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Head up to the rooftop for a dip with a view. The compact but stylish freshwater pool is framed by a sun terrace with loungers – perfect for cooling off after a morning of museums or for a pre-dinner sunset swim. Because of its size and depth, it’s more suited to relaxing than lane swimming, but that fits the rooftop vibe perfectly.

Barcelona’s beaches are easily reached by metro or bus; Barceloneta is around 3.5km away and makes a great contrast to days spent in the Old Town and Eixample.

Spa, sports & wellness


Keep up your routine in the compact air-conditioned gym, equipped with cardio machines and a free-weights area (minimum age 16).

Around the hotel you’ll also find:

• 24-hour reception with multilingual staff
• Concierge service for restaurant reservations, tickets and insider tips
• Currency exchange (local charges may apply)
