Did you know that the Catalonia Born hotel occupies a characteristic building from the beginning of the textile industrial era in Catalonia? It is an old type of factory house designed according to the neoclassical layout typical of the seventeenth century. Formerly it consisted of a noble part where the owner's residence and his family were located. The rest was made up of a set of warehouses around a central courtyard, whose mission was to provide light and ventilation to the various floors where work was done with the steam engines that moved the looms. On the façade, the balconies maintain the aesthetics of the 18th century, finished with fine Catalan stoneware in which all the pieces are of the same quality and tonality.

From Catalonia we wanted to preserve this historical heritage of the city and, for this reason, we carried out the rehabilitation of the building with the utmost respect for its original components, fully conserving the façade and the interior patio. The latter is one of the most unique spaces in our hotel and has a large skylight that acts as a closure and provides all the common areas with great light: the restaurant, the bar and the lounge. When you enter the Catalonia Born hotel you will be greeted by a modern lobby in which the original restored staircase has been preserved.

You can choose from a total of 90 rooms, all with elegant decoration, parquet flooring, marble bathroom, 50-inch television and other amenities to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Opt for our suite room and you will enjoy a private terrace where you can relax or work on your tan, as well as a separate living room with a sofa and a large work desk.

Disconnect in the most refreshing way in our rooftop pool, ideal for escaping the heat. You also have the option of sunbathing on the loungers while connecting to the hotel's free Wi-Fi. If you are an athlete and do not want to lose your training rhythm, we make it easy for you in our gym equipped with the best cardio and weight-training machines. In addition, you can treat yourself to a moment of relaxation at the Alegría Spa, located in another hotel in our chain, the Catalonia Ramblas hotel (subject to availability).

In the morning, start your day in the most exquisite way at the deluxe buffet breakfast at the Catalonia Born hotel. With exclusive options such as smoked salmon, hummus with crudités, potato omelette, vegan sausages and cava and wine to accompany them. During the day, come and enjoy a drink or cocktail in our modern Gastrobar, a design space that also has a terrace in the hotel's interior patio. Or choose from our menu of Mediterranean and international specialties delicious dishes with quality ingredients.

The modern Catalonia Born hotel is located next to the Arc de Triomf and Avenida Lluís Companys, which leads to Parc de la Ciutadella , near the Gothic Quarter and Born. In this enormous park, the green lung of the city, you will find the headquarters of the Parliament of Catalonia and also the Zoo, one of the best plans to do with children in Barcelona. Come to the Born Cultural Center, where you can see an archaeological site with 18th century buildings under your feet. Just a 10-minute walk from the hotel you will find the formidable Palau de la Música Catalana, with its colorful inverted dome, and the Barcelona Cathedral, an essential visit during your stay.
