Background
About Hotel Arts Barcelona
Hotel Arts Barcelona lives in Ricardo Bofill's 44-floor blue-glass tower, an architectural landmark rising over Port Olímpic on the waterfront. It's a big one for a luxury property, with 483 rooms, plus a rooftop pool, a spa, and a signature bar. The food side is the headline: Enoteca Paco Pérez, in-house, holds two Michelin stars. The accolades stack up too. It carries a Michelin Key, a Forbes Four-Star rating, and Virtuoso membership, Condé Nast Traveler readers voted it #2 Best Hotels in Spain in 2024, and it made Tapas Magazine's list of Spain's 25 best gastro hotels the same year. It also holds an environmental certification.
Dining
Restaurants in the hotel
The anchor is Enoteca Paco Pérez, the two-Michelin-star, two-Repsol-Sole restaurant where chef Paco Pérez cooks modern Mediterranean dishes built around seafood. For something more casual, Marina serves coastal Mediterranean plates and shared tapas with sea views, and Gehry handles the morning continental breakfast buffet. There's also Bites & Sips for coffee and light bites through the day, easing into evening drinks. It's a rare hotel food scene with a genuine fine-dining destination built in alongside the everyday options.

Location
Where Hotel Arts Barcelona is
Hotel Arts occupies Ricardo Bofill's 44-floor blue-glass tower at Carrer Marina 19-21, right on the beachfront at Port Olímpic. It's a landmark on the seafront, apart from the dense lanes of the old town, with the Ciutadella/Vila Olímpica metro stop nearby for getting into the city. Rooms face either the Mediterranean or the skyline behind it. If you want to wake up by the water and still have an easy metro ride into the Gothic Quarter and Passeig de Gràcia, this is the address for it.
