Converted textile quarters
An industrial lobby doubles as a playful social hub, equipped with a vintage photobooth, shuffleboard table, and loaner longboards.
“The rooms, especially, sport a handsome patina of paneled timber headboards, dark matt bathroom fittings and wire chairs.”
Where it shines

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
the hotel’s common spaces are the real standouts, most notably the rooftop terrace with a swimming pool and striking views over the Gothic Quarter.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set where Eixample meets El Born, the hotel sits steps from the Palau de la Música Catalana and nearby artisan boutiques.
The rooms
Guest rooms pair bookmatched wooden headboards with dark matte fixtures and local Bassols cotton linens under tall, sunlit windows.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A rooftop plunge pool looks out across the city skyline, and a heated thermal pool sits under subterranean brick arches.
The spa and gym
Treatment rooms host certified organic vegan body rituals, and a 24-hour fitness studio sits against exposed brick.
Restaurant D'Aprop
White cast-iron columns line the dining room, where the kitchen prepares zero-kilometer seasonal Catalan market dishes.
Housed in a meticulously restored former textile factory, the Yurbban Passage is the new and improved four-star sister of the popular three-star Yurbban Trafalgar, next door.
How it began
Built in 1878 as a textile factory, the property incorporates Passatge de les Manufactures, a covered alley connecting Eixample to El Born.
