HOTEL

THE BARCELÓ RAVAL ****

The Barceló Raval **** superior seeks to convey the essence of the most cosmopolitan city in the Mediterranean and therefore stands next to the lively dynamism of the Ramblas and close to landmarks such as Plaza Catalunya, the Liceu opera theater, the Boqueria market or the Cathedral. Its philosophy and cosmopolitan design connect with the city and make it one of the best hotels in Barcelona.

How to start an experience with urban essence in Barcelona? Waking up in one of the 182 ultra-comfortable rooms and 4 suites, overlooking the Raval neighborhood and equipped with docking stations for Iphones and free Wi-Fi.

If guests wonder why the Barceló Raval stands out among urban hotels in Barcelona, they will understand when they see its innovative lobby and contemplate the city’s skyline from its marvelous 360° terrace.

Within its brand-new facilities, its gastronomic offer is addictive thanks to its B-Lounge, kingdom of designer tapas, cocktails and one of the most famous Brunch in the city, served every Sunday.

Everything in the hotel has been created for those who visit it to connect with Barcelona through gastronomy, culture and love for modernism. In other words, to have a genuinely cosmopolitan experience in a city as beautiful as it is inexhaustible. The urban DNA runs through the veins of the Barceló Raval.

We always secure a discounted rate at the hotel for attendees of our event which you will be able to access after submitting your registration for our event. We strongly advise against looking for less expensive deals at other properties and recommend staying at the meeting venue.
