Inaugurated in 2004, the Diagonal Barcelona hotel stands out for its
modern architecture and interior design, in harmony with its neighbor,
the Agbar Tower. The building in which this new hotel is situated - the
fourth in this city by the Hotel Silken chain - has an impressive glass
facade, an imaginative play of black and white contrasts which create an
interesting optical effect. The building is the result of Barcelona
architect Juli Capella's desire to harmonize it with its surroundings
and Jean Nouvel's spectacular Agbar skyscraper.
The Diagonal Barcelona hotel offers 240 rooms distributed on nine
stories, some of which are fitted and reserved for non-smokers and
disabled guests. In all them modern design predominates without
forsaking comfort. Wooden furniture, carpeted floors, contrasting tones,
uncluttered layouts, elegant setting ... contemporary luxury and comfort
within futuristic architecture. And, if that's not enough, you can enjoy
delicious Catalan and Basque dishes in the Piano Restaurant, an
energetic buffet breakfast in the Tecla Cafeteria, a swim in a pool with
impressive views of Barcelona (solarium included), a cocktail after a
draining day in the Piano Bar...
It is located on the renowned Diagonal Avenue, near the main streets of
the city and with access to various modes of public transport (tube,
bus, train ...). A few metres from the Glorias plaza, you can easily
reach the "Palacio de los Congresos", the Forum area, the famous Sagrada
Familia, the Olympic Port...
