AMENITIES & SERVICES
|
|
What to expect: Hotel Montblanc opened in a brand new building in 2000. A large lobby area features a marble floor with a wavy blue and cream pattern, which indicates the sea and sand. One wall is dominated by a huge mosaic depicting the works of Gaudi, in the great architect’s own style. While the hotel is well suited to leisure travelers, corporate guests are also drawn by the excellent business facilities. Amenity highlights: The hotel has a range of attractive features, including a secluded outdoor terrace and swimming pool. Indoors, the restaurant provides buffet breakfast and à la carte lunch and dinner, while the Piano Bar has a live pianist every night. There’s also a range of meeting rooms, catering for up to 600 people, wireless Internet access in all public areas and secure underground parking (fee). Insider tip: Although on sunny days guests might find it difficult to drag themselves away from the outdoor pool, a short walk from the hotel reveals some of Barcelona’s biggest attractions. The Gothic Quarter and Las Ramblas are both just three blocks away. So too is the well-connected Plaça Catalunya metro station, which provides easy access to most of the city.
