City Hotel
Hotel El Palace Barcelona, a legendary five-star grande dame in the heart of the Eixample district, captivates with its theatrical neo-classical elegance, standing as a timeless beacon of sophistication since its 1919 debut as César Ritz's final masterpiece.
The 120 spacious rooms and suites unfold with classic warmth, featuring air-conditioned comfort, satellite TVs, minibars, desks, and opulent bathrooms with hairdryers, bathrobes, and premium toiletries. Adorned with ornate details that echo the hotel's storied past—once home to Dalí's eccentricities—the rooms, from Superior to Junior Suites, offer serene havens where attentive staff ensure thoughtful touches, from plush linens to warm welcomes, fostering a sense of belonging amid Barcelona's vibrant pulse. Select suites provide extra space for indulgent escapes, perfect for those seeking a touch of historic grandeur.
Dining at Amar Barcelona, led by former El Bulli chef Rafa Zafra, celebrates Mediterranean artistry with ponzu oysters and spider-crab cannelloni, savoured in a midnight-blue setting. The Great Hall offers traditional tapas and seasonal dishes alongside authentic British afternoon tea, while the Rooftop Garden transforms into an urban oasis with cocktails, summer DJ sets, and art lessons under the city skyline. A daily breakfast brims with vibrant, local flavours. Guests can immerse in curated experiences, from strolling the nearby Ramblas to exploring Gaudí's masterpieces, capturing Barcelona's lively rhythm with effortless grace.
Nestled steps from Passeig de Gràcia, the Ramblas, Casa Batlló, La Pedrera, and Barcelona's main shopping and cultural hubs, Hotel El Palace offers seamless access to the city's treasures. A Mayan-style spa with a Temazcal sauna, an outdoor pool, fitness and business centres, and a limousine service elevate the experience, ensuring serene renewal in a setting steeped in history and theatrical charm.
