page will give you a detailed review of the Arts
Hotel Barcelona. with photos, description of the area in which
this hotel is based along with essential tips for staying in this
5 star luxury hotel in Barcelona.
For many visitors the Hotel Arts Barcelona is one of the most popular
five Star Luxury Hotels in the city. Owned by the Ritz Carlton group
(not to be confused with the Ritz hotel which is in another part
of town) it offers modern and high quality accommodation in Barcelona.

the four sides of The Arts Hotel
You will have
one of three possible views from the hotel depending on which side
of the hotel your room is situated.
The
first is of Barceloneta beach if you are at the front or the left
side of the hotel as you look at the hotel from the picture at the
top of this page (Hotel Arts is the building on the left side in
the picture above)

However
if your room is at the back of the hotel you will have a view of Avenue
Icaria - a road as shown in the photo below.

Hotel Arts
Barcelona Location
Situated in
the marina area of Port Olimpico the Hotel Arts is only a few minutes
walk from the beach.
The hotel location,
although in the city centre, is not in the very heart of
the city centre. For many this is not a problem as the metro is only
5 mins walk away and you are only 4 stops (10 mins journey by
metro) to Passeig de Gracia and the very centre of Barcelona. If
you want to walk along the beach to the city centre you have about
a 30 mins walk, or a 10 minute journey by taxi (Approximately 5
Euros)
Some people
prefer their hotel to be situated only minutes walk away from where
all the action is. If that is what you want you may need to consider
another hotel closer to the Ramblas or Placa de Catalunya instead.
There are advantages
to Hotel Arts Barcelona location apart from the beach and marina
being close by. You will have a quiet room which means a peaceful
night's sleep. Before I moved to Barcelona I came here on holiday
at least once per year for the past 10 years ( I usually have 2
holidays per year so I always went somewhere else for the second
break). As a result of those visits I stayed in hotels in many locations
in Barcelona city centre. I can tell you that the very heart of
the city centre is noisy - especially at night when the city comes
alive. If you want to be guaranteed of a quiet
night's sleep without noise from the street it's recommended you stay
in a hotel outside of the very centre or at least away from busy
roads. In which case the Arts hotel Barcelona is in a perfect location.
Many internet
hotel reservation sites claim that city centre hotels are soundproofed
however from my experience this is not always the case
and you will have to take what they say with a pinch of salt. By
choosing a hotel away from all the hustle and bustle you can be
sure of a quiet night's sleep.
What Does Hotel
Arts Barcelona Offer You?
If you are
looking for style, beach location, and a guaranteed peaceful nights
sleep Hotel Arts Barcelona is an excellent choice especially if
you can afford the room rates! You will benefit from a modern hotel
with rooms of a high standard. You can also be rest assured that
the Barcelona Arts Hotel is worthy of its 5 star Luxury hotel rating
- something that cannot be said about some other 5 star hotels in
Barcelona.
If you are coming
to Barcelona on a special occasion like a wedding anniversary or
honeymoon then the Arts hotel is ideally located in one of the most
romantic areas of Barcelona (after the Cathedral area -the top romance
spot). You can walk along the sea front promenade at night with
soft lights, palm trees, and the sound of the sea washing up on
the sand.
In summary, if
you choose to stay at the Hotel Arts you will benefit from a modern
hotel worthy of the 5 Star luxury rating, in a quiet location of
Barcelona near the beaches and marina area. Click
