Grand Hotel Central Barcelona

Located in the centre of the city, next to Barcelona’s cathedral, with spectacular views of the entire Gothic district and the ancient city walls. From the hotel, the most interesting things in the city can be comfortably accessed: Las Ramblas, the shopping zone around Plaza Cataluña, the most popular museums, and the seafront. In recent years, the most fashionable zone of Barcelona has developed right next to the hotel: El Born district, replete with surprising shops, designer bars and restaurants scattered throughout its narrow streets and well-lit plazas. If you are looking for relaxation, you will be able to enjoy the beaches and the maritime flavour still present in Barcelona, close to the hotel.

Sky Bar
The terrace of the Sky Bar, located on the rooftop of the Grand Hotel Central, boasts spectacular panoramic views of Barcelona’s skyline. Open only from June through to September, the stylish, cosmopolitan bar also features a lounge area to relax whilst socializing, and an infinity pool, adding to the sexy summer atmosphere. Serving light, gastronomic food from Chef Ramon Freixa and refreshing summer drinks, the Sky Bar is a hidden gem of the Gothic district. And as the weather heats up so does the night with a chic crowd of locals and tourists as well as chilled-out tunes.

Wellness Suite
In a city such as Barcelona there is much to do. The weight of sightseeing, meal after meal and walking the city, from the beach to Parc Guell, can begin to take it's toll. In the centre of Barcelona you can find a much welcomed break from the busy pace of the city at the Grand Hotel Central. As you enter the relaxing space, be overwhelmed with the calming aroma of the wellness suite. Leave your stresses at the door as you enter their modern private massage room where a team of qualified therapists are able to recommend or design massages for each guest based on their individual needs. Treatments focus on the relief of muscle tension, recovery of muscle tone and the harmonisation of energies between your body and mind.
