The five-star hotel is considered one of the most beautiful and chic addresses in Barcelona. There are several reasons, such as the prime location on the Passeig de Gràcia, the noble avenue of the Catalan capital. Or the spectacular rooftop pool, the in-house gourmet restaurant or the elegant suites, furnished by star designer Patricia Urquiola - butler service included. And then, of course: the luxurious spa in the basement. Far from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, it's an oasis of health with eight treatment rooms, a hammam, a 12-meter indoor pool and a gym. All spa therapies were created by specialists in traditional Chinese medicine. On the wellness floor is the world's first HairSpa by Miriam Quevedo. A high-tech analysis of hair and scalp is followed by customized treatments from the crown to the tips of your hair.
