Boutique hotel housed in a neoclassical building dating from 1899 and renovated in 2007, set in the Eixample district in heart of Barcelona.
The hotel is surrounded by the most prestigious shopping and tourist area in the city. You can reach the famous avenue Passeig de Gràcia in 3 minutes by foot, Plaça Catalunya or Las Ramblas in 5 minutes. Barcelona’s convention centres and airport are both easily reached by metro within 20 minutes.
Acknowledged by many to be the most prestigious and most architecturally distinguished hotel in Barcelona, the Art Deco Ritz dates from 1919. Richly remodeled during the late 1980s, it has welcomed more millionaires, famous people, and aristocrats (and their official and unofficial consorts) than any other hotel in northeastern Spain. One of its finest features is a cream-and-gilt neoclassical lobby, where afternoon tea is served to the strains of a string quartet. The sumptuous guest rooms are appropriately formal, high-ceilinged and richly furnished. Some have Regency furniture, bathrooms accented with mosaics, and showers with bathtubs inspired by those in ancient Rome. You get all the luxuries here: elegant fabrics, deluxe mattresses, and plush towels.
