What it’s good at
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Inside, however, is a riotous party with geometric textiles, high-as-a-human plants, and imaginative chandeliers—plus a huge bar that could get you swinging from them.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Parc de la Ciutadella sits directly across the street, and the Arc de Triomf is a six-minute walk away.
The rooms
Every room shares the same compact layout, focusing on comfortable beds, great showers, and views toward the park or courtyard.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
One Lounge
A breakfast buffet serves Spanish cheeses and tortilla at the communal table. Later, the tiled bar pours regional wines.
How it began

The building rose on the site of a former regional police station, marking the brand's first Spanish opening in 2018.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
