Located on Barcelona’s iconic La Rambla, which runs through the city’s cultural heart, this hotel overlooks the historic Gothic Quarter.
Frequently hosting world-famous celebrities, Le Méridien Barcelona is one of the city’s most prestigious hotels. Set in the cultural hub of the lively Catalan capital, this is the ideal venue to visit the city of Gaudí.
The internationally renowned La Rambla – right outside the hotel – remains vibrant at any time of day or night. It links the city’s central square, Plaça Catalunya, with the port. The city’s historic surroundings contrast well with the hotel’s contemporary decor and state-of-the-art technology offered in each guestroom.
Each room card entitles you to free entry to the nearby MACBA contemporary art gallery. A complimentary, freshly brewed, premium Illy cappuccino or espresso is available at the signature ILLYCAFFÉ in the lobby.
Le Méridien Barcelona is often referred to as 'The Star's Hotel', as world recognised personalities have crossed the threshold, including Pavarotti, Bruce Springsteen, Mehta, the Rolling Stones, Madonna, Rostropovich, and many more. The top floors feature beautiful suites, some with large terraces.
All available rooms have been completely refurbished and the brand new Restaurant & Bar Cent Onze, with magnificent views over Las Ramblas, is in operation, as well as the reception area, lobby and fitness room.
