The hotel elevators are also glass and allow guests to see each floor of rooms as they travel up the building. This allows a relatively small hotel to have an open feeling.
The hotel is located at the heart of Eixample. It is a 10 - 15 minute walk from major locations such as Passeig de Gràcia, Plaça de Catalunya and the Ramblas. It is also a two-minute walk from Rambla de Catalunya - a leafy part pedestrianized street that is littered with café and restaurant terraces - a lovely area to while away a sunny Barcelona afternoon.
