El Palace 5* Deluxe - Barcelona

Located on the Corts Catalanes, a tree-lined boulevard just five minutes’ walk from the Placa de Catalunya, the Palace has, for many years, been one of Barcelona’s top traditional, luxury hotels and for over a century has been known for its old world charm.

Opulent public rooms include a brasserie-style restaurant serving light meals, tapas and afternoon tea, the legendary ‘Bluesman’ cocktail bar and some grand private salons which were restored in 2013, as were the 120 bedrooms which are beautifully furnished in neo-classical style. A wonderful roof garden was added in 2016 and has magnificent views over the city’s rooftops. Here you will find plenty of quiet spaces to relax as well as the gastronomic ‘Winter Garden’ restaurant (open Monday to Friday) and a summer swimming pool. A Mayan-themed spa is another recent addition.
