The Claris Hotel, Barcelona
Opened to great acclaim in 1992, The Claris Hotel Barcelona is located in the Eixample district of Barcelona, near Paseo de Gracia and around 10 minutes walk from Placa Catalunya making it a good base for doing business, while still close to the cultural heart of Barcelona. The Eixample region is full of designer boutiques and is home to some of Barcelona's most fashionable shops.

The hotel itself is a former 19th century palace and the Grand exterior is matched by an impressive lobby, reception and unique art gallery. With the beautiful rooftop pool and outdoor restaurant "Terrazza" with its Jazz and Brazilian live music in summer you may be hard pressed to leave. The hotel also has a small gymnasium with a fantastic view over the rooftops towards the port and there is also a sauna, right beside the gym.
