A world of Modernista architecture surrounds Hotel Indigo® Barcelona - Plaza Catalunya, including Antoni Gaudí’s iconic Casa Batlló and La Pedrera. Stroll around our neighbourhood and at every turn you’ll see exteriors of townhouses, bakeries, markets and pharmacies flaunting the intricate floral decoration and curving lines characteristic of the style. The movement reached its peak at the turn of the 20th century, when Barcelona had grown beyond of its medieval walls. Its wealthiest inhabitants commissioned new mansion homes in the elegant, grid-like streets of the burgeoning Eixample district. Today, Gaudí’s creative spirit is reflected in the vivid colours and close attention to detail of our boutique hotel, while our neighbourhood is home to the city’s chicest shops and restaurants.
Wherever you are, the vast Sagrada Família basilica watches over Barcelona’s skyline. Gaudí’s swansong is crowned by eight huge towers swathed in colourful tiles. Its cavernous nave resembles a sparkling magical forest, illuminated as the sun pours through stained-glass windows. Take the lift to the roof for spectacular city views.
Gaudí completed the Casa Milà apartment building in 1912 with a rippling façade adorned with wrought-iron balconies. You’ll not find a single straight line in the exotic interior, where doors and wood-panelled walls curve and stained-glass glints in the sun. The showstopper rooftop, guarded by ranks of chimneys, has panoramic city views.
Antoni Gaudí’s undulating Casa Batlló is said to evoke the story of St. George and the dragon. The windows appear to be propped up by bones, the rooftop follows the shape of a dragon’s scaly back and the cross-shaped tower is the saint’s lance. Whether true or not, this fairy-tale mosaic mansion is among Gaudí’s most fanciful creations.
A tree-shaded promenade that sweeps down to the sea, La Rambla is Barcelona’s iconic gathering place. It’s a street where buskers and street acrobats entertain, and where elegant palaces and churches are nudged up against souvenir shops and cafés. Browse the fragrant stalls in La Boquería food market and grab a seat for lunchtime tapas.
Squeezed into a narrow back street, this eye-popping Modernista concert hall was designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner in 1905. Gaily swathed in painted and ceramic flowers, it’s a fantasy confection inside and out. Catch a classical music or jazz concert in its eccentric, psychedelic auditorium for a true Barcelona experience.
If you like your opera houses with lashings of red velvet, marble and gilt, the Liceu is for you. Our city’s treasured cultural venue was restored to its original 19th-century glamour in the 1990s after a devastating fire. Dress up to mingle with Barcelona’s elite at Bellini operas, ballet or contemporary dance performances.
An intimate music venue with a dimly lit bar in the Gothic Quarter, Marula attracts surprisingly big-name acts and a cool urban crowd. Expect anything from jazz and pop to rock and reggae bands playing on a miniscule stage swagged with red velvet. Once the gig is over, DJs take over, keeping punters on their feet until the wee hours.
Open every night, Apolo is a cult venue on Barcelona’s party scene. An ornate former theatre morphed into a music venue, it offers an amazingly eclectic programme of upcoming bands and big names - Coldplay played here in their early days - in rock, pop, funk and flamenco. The indie club nights, especially Nasty Mondays, are legendary.
Our contemporary DOQ Restaurant draws inspiration from the intense colours and flowing forms of the fin de siècle architecture surrounding us. Give your palate a gastronomic whizz round the Mediterranean with chef Edgar Suárez’s interpretation of local specialities, such as grilled octopus or truffled eggs paired with ice-cold cava."
We’ll entice you into our Modernista-influenced bar with the skills of our talented mixologists. Grab a coffee on the run 24/7 or settle into one of our eye-catching velvet sofas and relax with a potent gin and tonic or chilled cava. If you fancy a tapa or two on the side, we particularly recommend chef’s delicious steak tartare. "
Found in an airy industrial building from the 1920s, El Nacional is one of Barcelona’s hippest dining destinations. With several lively culinary areas under one enormous roof, try oysters at one bar and Iberian ham at another or order the finest seafood. If you’re short on time, pop in for a glass of cava or a chocolate pastry takeaway.
The sumptuous, über-glam interior of Boca Grande was designed by hot local designer Lázaro Rosa Violán and provides a dazzling setting for piles of fresh seafood and superb Mediterranean dishes.
