The house
The HoxtonPoblenou design bolthole
Curved arches, sunlit terracotta, and an open lobby where guests and locals sip natural wine beside vibrant murals.
“The nine-story, 240-room property is on the larger side, but it feels intimate thanks to homey design touches, such as terra-cotta floors…”

Review
Condé Nast Traveler
Also in The 50 Discovery and AFAR.
The Hoxton, Poblenou was designed as a tribute to the eminent Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill, and as a result it’s stylistically quite distinct…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in creative Poblenou along Avinguda Diagonal, placed moments from artisan workshops, converted warehouses, and the sands of Bogatell Beach.
The rooms
Terracotta tiled floors meet sun-faded floral prints, woven tapestries above headboards, and windows framing views across the city skyline.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Checkered tiles line the rooftop swimming pool, surrounded by yellow cabanas and sun loungers overlooking the city.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Four Corners
Detroit-style square pizzas are baked by the slice or whole pie, extending out to a sunlit pergola terrace.
The Hoxton’s vibrant, design-led aesthetic is a natural fit in Barcelona, and it’s found a spiritual home in the hip neighborhood of El Poblenou
At the table
Up on the roof, Tope serves tacos and frozen margaritas on a terrace facing the Sagrada Família.
How it began
Opened in 2022 as the brand's Spanish debut, the hotel draws inspiration from Poblenou's rich industrial textile heritage.
“Think texture plays, geometry, a sun-kissed palette, house plants, local materials and art all expertly weighted to create a spacious, fluid scene…”
