The neighborhood
Step onto Via Laietana, where medieval alleyways and Gothic Quarter bars branch off in every direction.
“The façade of Ohla Barcelona blends seamlessly with the Catalan Gothic architecture that surrounds it, obscuring the fact that the interior takes its cues not from the spires and stone but from the clean lines of modern hotel minimalism.”
“Strenuously fashionable, from the strangely eyeball-like orbs that cascade over the facade, to the all-black lobby, to the rooftop terrace.”
