Bottom Line

A sophisticated vibe pervades this mid-range hotel on the fringes of the stylish Eixample district. Luxe touches in the lobby include marble floors and wood-paneled walls. The sumptuous feel extends to the plush guest rooms, which feature hardwood floors, flat-screen TVs, and rich fabrics and finishes throughout. However, the beds in the double rooms are actually just twin beds pushed together. Also, the fitness center is quite small, with just a few machines. The hotel offers a restaurant and bar, but guests wishing to explore other dining options will have to walk to the nearby subway, as there is not much in the surrounding area.

Location

On the fringes of the historic and stylish L'Eixample district

Catalonia Rigoletto is located on the outer limits of the L'Eixample district, which is famous for its striking modernist architecture. The immediate area surrounding the hotel is a bit devoid of shops, restaurants, and charm, but the Metro is a short walk away, as is the Camp Nou soccer stadium.L'Eixample is home to the city's best examples of modernist architecture, including the Casa Milá building and Sagrada Família church that were both designed by Antoni Gaudí. In addition to its eccentric architecture, this district is known for a vibrant nightlife scene, with many trendy bars and clubs found here, especially in the gay section (which is popularly known as Gayxample).Barcelona is an eclectic city that is popular for its historic and remarkable architecture, vibrant club scene, and urban beaches along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
