Hotel Arts Review
This luxurious Ritz-Carlton-owned skyscraper overlooks Barcelona from the Olympic Port, providing stunning views of the Mediterranean, the city, and the mountains behind. The hotel's main drawback is that it's somewhat in a world of its own, a short taxi ride (or a good 20-minute walk) from the center of the city. That said, it is a beautiful world to be in. True to its name, fine art—from Chillida drawings to Susana Solano sculptures—hangs everywhere. Rooms are equally glamorous, decorated in contrasting beige and dark-wood accents and stocked with Acqua di Parma toiletries. Sergi Arola's restaurant is a chic, postmodern culinary playground, while the Enoteca has emerged as the hotel's prized dining room.
