Mercer Hotel Barcelona
Combining old and new
Housed within a distinctive historic pile in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, the 28 rooms and suites of this Mercer incorporate the time-weathered, characterful exterior into its interior spaces – think chipped old stone alcoves thoughtfully accented with modern ornamentations and exposed ancient brickwork offset by crisp whitewashed walls. Traditional Catalonian cuisine at the Mercer Restaurant, tapas with a seafood slant at Le Bouchon and a cocktail lounge take care of degustations, while a rooftop deck offers away-from-it-all solace.
