From an inn to a four-star hotel
The old Hotel España was renovated in 2010 to modernise the facilities and make this old inn a modern 21st-century hotel. The work presented somewhat of a challenge: despite the upgrading of the interior, the Modernista look the building was famous for was respected.
The hotel how has 82 spacious rooms equipped with the latest technology, along with an outdoor pool, solarium and a spectacular rooftop terrace where you can enjoy cocktails as you listen live music on summer evenings. The well-known chef Martín Berasategui runs the restaurant, known as Fonda España, a Modernista space originally designed and decorated by the architect Domenech i Montaner.
A masterpiece of Modernisme
In the late nineteenth century, the architect Lluis Domenech i Montaner led the remodelling of the hotel, in collaboration with the artists Eusebi Arnau, author of the spectacular alabaster fireplace that still dominates the bar and Ramon Casas. The renovation in 2010 respected the original spaces as well as many decorative elements, such as lights, mosaics and paintings.
