Gran Hotel La Florida

Just like its location, the Gran Hotel La Florida’s history is dramatic. Built in 1925 by prestigious Noucentista architect Ramon Raventos, but unfortunately closed during the Civil and then converted into a military hospital in 1939. However, it came to rise again in the 1950’s, reborn as a new luxury property for all to enjoy as it combined beautiful traditional and avant-garde styles inside and out. Features include spaciously elegant rooms, lovely restaurant L’Orangerie and one of the city’s sexiest pools. The setting is perfect for those who wish to enjoy all that Barcelona has to offer in sublime relaxation.
