The Albinoni Hotel is a well liked and very well located 3 star superior hotel. It is a listed building, included in the artistic heritage of Barcelona City. Pedro Bassegoda I Mateu built it in 1876, and in 1998 it opened its doors as a hotel. Previously a small palace, it has undergone extensive renovations but it has retained its neoclassical facade, stunning marble stairs and fancy moulded ceiling. The building is not just a hotel but a piece of history and art. Guests will feel this as soon as they enter the reception hall. The marble floors the stone archways and the high ceilings create a welcoming atmosphere. Adjacent to the reception area you will find the bar that is medium sized but well furnished and modern in style. A lounge area, adjacent to the bar, is equally stylish. The public spaces are welcoming and are decorated with drop down lights, dark blue, light blue and ecru colours. In general, the hotel is a stylish property and successfully combines traditional features with a modern style. It is ideal for couples.
