The Catalonia Albinoni is located in the heart of downtown Barcelona, only steps away from the Plaza Catalunya and the famous Gothic Quarter. Converted from a former palace built in 1876, the Catalonia Albinoni opened as a hotel in 1998. This unique property is recognized as one of the treasures of Barcelona, and is registered on the city's catalogue of Artistic Heritage. The Catalonia Albinoni offers the charm and romance of an Old World setting without sacrificing any of the amenities that modern travelers have come to expect. This gorgeous hotel offers a glimpse of the opulence that typified the period in which it was constructed. Boasting an impressive Neoclassical fatade, accented by Romantic and Baroque motifs, the Albinoni's finest features have been carefully restored down to the last detail. Its grand entry hall, large enough to accommodate the horse drawn carriages of its day, leads to a spacious interior courtyard, where the hotel's original marble staircase invites guests upstairs. The hotel bar and reception area are situated in this tranquil courtyard, allowing guests time to admire the building's stately beauty. Each of the Catalonia Albinoni's 74 rooms is tastefully decorated with comfortable furnishings and polished wood floors, and each offers the conveniences of air conditioning, direct dial telephone, satellite television and a lovely private marbled bath. For a modest price, guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast buffet, served on the Albinoni's pretty garden terrace. The hotel's friendly and multilingual staff is guaranteed to make your stay as pleasant and worry free as possible, and the Catalonia Albinoni is only moments away from area fine dining, shopping, and entertainment venues.
