Hotel Duquesa de Cardona, Barcelona

Authenticity

Duquesa de Cardona sits in a renovated 16th-century palace house that preserves the city's avant-garde style in the lobby and offers a vintage coziness in the rooms. 

Location

The hotel's location gives you the best of both, as you'll be on Passeig de Colom and the port yet still in the historic Gothic Quarter and just a few blocks from La Rambla. You'll be within walking distance of famous sites, such as the Barcelona Cathedral, Mercat de la Boqueria, and Ciutadella Park. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

There are eight room types, which seem to vary quite a bit. Standard and superior rooms feel small and a little simple, so to fully embrace the hotel's elegance, we suggested opting for a deluxe room or suite. You can even request rooms with harbor views. Bathrooms are clean and modern, though the deluxe rooms and suites offer more space and comfort. 

Other Highlights

Besides a generous breakfast buffet, you have two choices for meals, one being an elegant fine-dining eatery with a cocktail bar and extensive Catalan wine menu. For more casual fare and city views, enjoy a meal on the rooftop terrace, where you'll also find a bar and outdoor pool.
