About this hotel
Grand Hotel Central is a five-star hotel at Via Laietana 30, in a Noucentista building from 1926 commissioned by the politician Francesc Cambó and designed by the architect Adolf Florensa, between the Gothic Quarter and El Born. On the eighth floor, its infinity rooftop pool and La Terraza del Central bar and restaurant look out over the cathedral, Santa Maria del Mar and the Sagrada Família. The same floor holds an urban spa with a sauna and a hammam, a fitness centre, and Casa Cambó, the founder's former home with a 1,000 m² neoclassical garden. Rooms range from Classic, Superior and Deluxe rooms to Deluxe Corner rooms and a 45 m² Family Room of two connected rooms for up to four guests. The Junior, Master and Grand Suites include a 60-minute massage and a round-trip transfer, and on the ground floor Can Bo serves tapas and wines. The cathedral, the Picasso Museum and the Palau de la Música are a few minutes' walk away, which suits couples and families who want a landmark stay in the old town.
