Mandarin Oriental

Barcelona’s Mandarin Oriental is housed in an elegant mid-20th-century building, and features a super-stylish interior by renowned architect and designer Patricia Urquiola. Centrally located, it provides a perfect base to explore everything this great city has to offer.

The 98 guest rooms are luxurious and modern – all clean lines, white space, and splashes of feature colour – and have a subtle, calming Oriental theme running throughout.

Touches from the original building reference its past, including the Banker’s Bar (the place to be in the evening), which has a display created from an original collection of bank security boxes.
