This adults-only oasis in the Gothic Quarter is more like a private members’ club or country manor than a hotel. Escape the neighbourhood’s busy streets at the red velvet library anchored by books and a fireplace, on the patio with Barcelona’s largest vertical garden or at the sunny rooftop with ocean views. Even the 22 light-filled rooms are rendered in design-forward furnishing: think homey shelves of books, patterned wallpaper, plush armchairs and velvet curtains.
