Our Favourite Rooms

Packing Tips

Take a cue from the hotel’s decor and pack your Wes Anderson-inspired best: think pink 1960s shift dresses or something with a hint of paisley (perhaps even a boy scout badge if you’re going all-out).

Also

Borrow books from Margot House’s on-site library or, if you’re feeling more active, take one of the hotel’s Brompton cycles-for-hire for a spin around the city.

Children

Over-eights are welcome, but not particularly catered to.

There’s no need to be formal here; go for effortlessly stylish brunch-with-your-mates attire.

Hotel Restaurant

Breakfast is dished out in the Margot Sala; pastries are baked by chef Jaime Santianes, and there’s an assortment of muesli, fresh seasonal fruits, meats and cheeses, freshly-squeezed orange juice and classic egg dishes to choose from. Although the restaurant doesn’t do lunch or dinner, you need only ask the lovely kitchen staff and they’ll prepare snacks for you 24 hours a day.

You’ll find the vintage honesty bar cart at the edge of the library. It’s stocked with wines, cava and classic cocktail fixings.

Worth Getting Out of Bed For

Just down Passeig de Gràcia you’ll find Gaudí’s most accomplished civil work, La Pedrera; after all, no visit to Barcelona is complete without a little Gaudí gawking. Visit local botanical garden Jardins Mossen Costa I Ilobera for photo-ops with strange-looking cacti and palm trees; the New York Times voted it one of the world’s top 10 gardens. It’s a can’t-miss in the spring, and entry is free. Wander by Barcino, the last remains of the Roman wall, and head over to Las Ramblas to pick up nibbles at Boqueria market, Europe’s biggest food market.
