This hotel is great for those of you who can’t decide whether you want to stay by the land or by the sea. With this hotel, you get the best of both worlds. In each of the 483 guest rooms and suites, you can look at the sea out one window and the land out the other. Sound like you?
Just like there’s views for the land and sea dwellers in all of us, a large variety of both indoor and outdoor activities are offered for guests. Also known for its fabulous service and luxurious experience, each room comes equipped with marble bathrooms, in-room lighting and music control, turndown service, Bang & Olufsen TV with satellite channels and DVD, …show more content…
In addition to everything listed in the previous paragraph, apartments include butler service, terraces, and a personal trainer. If that doesn’t sell you, I’m not sure what will. I wish every hotel room came provided with a butler and a personal trainer. Then I could gorge myself on the lavish room service carried/wheeled in by my butler and when I started to feel bad about all the calories I had consumed, my personal trainer would be on hand to torture those calories out of me. Balance would be restored.
If you upgrade from a regular room to a club-level room or a suite, Wi-Fi is free and you are also granted access to an exclusive lounge serving food and drinks all day. If you want breakfast and you’ve only paid for a regular-grade room, you’ll have to a pay a fee at one of the five restaurants in the hotel. A club-level room or suite may be worth the extra money if you want Wi-Fi, breakfast, lunch, and dinner included as a part of your hotel visit.
The leisure facilities include: a fitness center, swimming pool, beauty salon, designer boutiques, and a dual-level spa located on the 42nd floor with a wide range of treatments to choose …show more content…
What is considered to be the old city and the new city meet at this large square located smack dab in the middle of Barcelona. Some important streets meet at this square, including: Passeig de Gràcia (which you may recognize since I mentioned it in a previous article), Rambla de Catalunya, La Rambla or Portal de l 'Àngel, Ronda de Sant Pere, and Carrer de Vergara or Carrer de Pelai.
The plaza is great in size, occupying an area of about 50,000 square meters. Famous for its fountains and statues, how close it is in proximity to other famous locations in Barcelona, and, strangely enough, for the flocks of pigeons that gather there.
Some of the most famous art pieces, including sculpture and general decorative arts, featured in the square are: Deessa, by Josep Clarà, Pastor de Pau, by Pablo Gargallo, a Francesc Macià monument which reads: "Catalunya a Francesc Macià,” and several of Josep Llimona 's sculptures. Mosaics designed by pupils of Escola Massana decorate the walls of the underground section of the square.
Though several theatres used to exist in the square, none of them are standing today. There are modern theatres erected in and nearby to the square but none with as much historical value as these four had: Teatre del Bon Retir, Circ Eqüestre Alegria, Eldorado Concert,
