A sophisticated vibe pervades this mid-range hotel on the fringes of the stylish Eixample district. Luxe touches in the lobby include marble floors and wood-paneled walls. The sumptuous feel extends to the plush guest rooms, which feature hardwood floors, flat-screen TVs, and rich fabrics and finishes throughout. However, the beds in the double rooms are actually just twin beds pushed together. Also, the fitness center is quite small, with just a few machines. The hotel offers a restaurant and bar, but guests wishing to explore other dining options will have to walk to the nearby subway, as there is not much in the surrounding area.
