Arrival

This is a beautiful hotel with a pleasant reception (though no special services). The hotel has an art theme with an impressive display of exciting modern lithographs, photos and paintings, aesthetic vases and ceramics.

Design and Decor

Each floor focuses on a particular style or artist and the hallways are the exhibition space.  This I found to create an inspiring and charming atmosphere.

The roof terrace was closed when I was there, but it was clearly the place to be when open. A quite large terrace considering we are in the middle of Barcelona, with masses of greenery and a cool modern style.

Try and come here on the weekend when they make a roof party with DJ and drinks. I could easily return here just for the roof terrace.

Ambiance

A staff member caught sight of me and understanding my interest in hotels, gave me a special tour of the new section that had just opened: an area with rooms for conferences, parties and events. The entrance to this new wing is very original: it’s a flower shop!!  A fantastic idea that is inviting and smells wonderful, adding life and ambiance. This area of the hotel was unusual and fascinating.  There were more unique details such as a meeting room decorated as a library filled with delightful art and a bathroom that had a fountain!

The woman that showed me around had a super energy and shared details about her job at the hotel. She said she feels the 2 hotels and the one restaurent in this “chain” are like a big family. She took me outside and we walked down the street to the Hotel Regitze and the restaurant down the corner, both fine places.  She gave me the feeling of knowing the company I visit.  Personality and friendship are of great value to me.

Room

I have never stayed in a room with such impressive artwork on the walls. The small room with a balcony was great but nothing more. The elegant bathroom had a bathtub, pure design and stunning turquoise tiles. It is a pleasure when one chooses a style and goes all out.

Products

There was a free shower cap and sad slippers! That’s it!

It was the dullest freebies I have ever seen in a four-star hotel! It didn’t live up in any way to its standards.

Overall

• It is a lovely place but is missing some personality 

• The artwork was the most interesting and memorable 

• I don’t think I will return but can warmly recommend it  

• I think you get a lot for your money. A hotel such as this in Copenhagen would have cost at least the double

• It is possible to rent electric scooters and book different services such as a massage, private yoga session, etc. I asked for a curling iron but they didn’t have one!
