Located in the epicenter of Barcelona and with more than 65 years of history behind it, Avenida Palace stands as one of the icons of the Catalan city. The proximity and the familiar treatment are the main signs of identity of the hotel and one of the main reasons why it remains in the memory, not only of its guests but also of those who have been lucky enough to celebrate or attend an event in their wonderful halls.

In the place where today is located Avenida Palace in 1925 was installed the exclusive tea shop and restaurant Casa Llibre, built by the famous Catalan architect Enric Sagnier. Thus, Avenida Palace was raised in 1952 on this space frequented by the Catalan bourgeoisie. Since then, guests have not stopped passing such famous clients as Ernest Hemingway, Lizza Minnelli or The Beatles. It is the place to feel and make feel like real stars.

And after renovating the bathrooms of all rooms, incorporated two suites and created a spectacular panoramic terrace between 2014 and 2016, in 2017 has taken the turn to the main floor, recently inaugurated, consisting of a wonderful lobby and the Beat Bar, a delightful English-style bar.

They offer, in addition, an infinite variety of gastronomic proposals that are adapted to the preferences and needs of each group: buffets, coffee breaks, finger lunch, cocktails, etc.
