Location
Where Hotel Ohla Barcelona is
Hotel Ohla sits on Via Laietana in the Gothic Quarter, in a 1920s building whose neoclassical facade carries ceramic 'eyes' by artist Frederic Amat. The hotel's own site places it between the Palau de la Música and the Cathedral, about three minutes' walk from the Cathedral and five minutes from Las Ramblas and Plaça Catalunya. That puts it inside the thick of the old town's main sights, walkable to the Cathedral and Las Ramblas alike.
