It is surrounded by quality restaurants and is within a 20-minute walk of many of Barcelona's top attractions including beaches, Las Ramblas, and Sagrada Familia.

There is a rooftop pool with great city views and an expansive breakfast buffet, but the free Wi-Fi signal can sometimes be weak. Travelers looking for a hotel with a bit more personality should check out the Balmes Hotel with its museum-worthy collection of African art.
Scene
Hotel with gorgeous, historic exterior and modern interior
The K+K Hotel Picasso has a striking historic facade, dominated by archways. The atmosphere upon arrival is elegant, from the exterior to the sleek and modern interior common spaces. The lobby is bright and contemporary with splashes of orange and red in an otherwise neutral space. The small rooftop pool with city views and relaxed bar and restaurant all provide a serene atmosphere in a busy city.
Location
In the busy Born area, across the street from the Barcelona zoo and near the Arc de Triomf metro station.
About 10 miles from the Barcelona airport and easily accessible from the Arc de Triomf metro station, the K+K Hotel Picasso is located in the bustling, vibrant Born area of the city, loaded with restaurants and shops. It's well-located for leisure travelers who plan to see the city's top sights: the beach, Sagrada Familia, the Picasso Museum, Las Ramblas, and Boqueria market are all a 20-minute (or less) walk away. Family travelers will love the hotel's location opposite the Barcelona zoo and a 10-minute walk from the aquarium.
Rooms
Clean, quiet, and sharp rooms
The 92 rooms at K+K Hotel Picasso are clean, comfortable, and quiet (thanks to sound-proof windows). All rooms have flat-screen satellite TVs, minibars, and electric kettles for making tea and coffee. Bathrooms have walk-in showers or tubs and have hair dryers. Executive-level bathrooms come with a bathrobe and slippers, but other than that and a few minor room enhancements such as a work desk, there's little to distinguish these premium rooms from the classic rooms. Decor across the board is wood paneling, grey carpets, and white linens with tan-and-blue striped coverlets.
